Ava by L.G.Savage (HeartBreak)

Chapter 55

Zeke closed his eyes as he fought off another mental attack from his wolf. It had been more than twenty–four hours, but Shadow was determined. He kept clawing to get out, and all he could see in his head were the images of blood and severed limbs as Shadow showed him his intentions.

I will bathe in that wolf’s blood!!

“And then you will condemn us both to death, he argued for the millionth time.

“You have no idea what we are capable of. You’re weak. You are stronger than all of them, but you still hold us to their standards?

The rules are there for a reason. We can’t break them just because you think this human is yours!

That made Shadow go on another psychonic tirade that had him griping the chains tightly even though he could smell his flesh burning

Pam shot through every inch of his body, and the stench of dry and fresh blood assaulted his post. Every pan of him was raw from the heavy chains wrapped and locked around him and the silver barv he was chained to. He could feel the silver poisoning hun, and his limbs were already. numb. If Shadow didn’t give in and give him back his control, he wouldn’t last much longer.

Using silver was a stupid way of controlling his wolf. Any other wolf would have been dear by now. If his father knew about this, he would likely never hand down the reins, but he would go through all of this a million times over to finally get what he wanted

The basement was for emergencies. In the three years he hurl been at the academy, he’d never had to use this room. It wasn’t just the heavy silver chains holding him in place, there was also a spell around the room And it was soundprood. He had screamed his head off in pain for hours, Shadow also barked commands and screamed constantly, lant Derek and Myles couldn’t hear him. They hard alvo cut off their links to him just to be extra cautioins, but only after he commanded them to protect Ava with their lives.

If Shadow had already been their alpha, they would not have been able to cut him off. They would never have had the chance to chain him, and Shadow would have hunted down Claire by now

Not that he blamed Shadow. The poor beast was as much a victim of this bond as he was. He was still struggling to rein in his anger about the state Ava had been in, and he knew that was probably the reason Shadow still had a hold of him. The only thing holding him together way that he could still sense that Ava was asleep. She was okay. And lier scent was everywhere in the house and the basement. It wrapped around him, controlling him, stopping him from completely giving in to Shadow.

That fact that another person could control him like this was the reason Ava had to go.
