Bad Love an Alpha’s Regret by Elise Sinclair

Chapter 272

AARON

I’m wrenched out of the dream like hitting a wall at a hundred

miles an hour.

What the hell was that?

I sit up, waiting for the weird sense of being tossed out of time and space, knowing I’m physically here in the cell, but feeling

like I should be somewhere else.

With someone else.

With my mate.

She’s still alive, my wolf insists. Go to her. Find her.

Claim her.

I shake my head, trying to get my wolf to calm the hell down.

Leah is gone.

I saw it with my own eyes…

Or did I??

It certainly seemed like Samsen and Petyr were acting like she was dead, but I didn’t physically confirm it myself.

Except I’m just grasping at straws.

What possible reason would Samsen and Petyr have to pretend Leah was dead if she wasn’t?

Except now I feel like I’ve got a burr caught in my mind.
