Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

Chapter 72 DANE Over my dead body , I growled .

Auroras eyes flashed .

Youre an Alpha , Dane .

I know you dont take kindly to challenge .

But hear me on this I will challenge you when it comes to my children .

I held on to calm with the tips of my claws .

Tonight was perfect .

Why the hell would you even suggest I not see them again ? She shifted , and I could see the discomfort in her eyes .

The uncertainty .

She was so cool , calm , and collected , but she still couldnt hide her fears from me .

That was how I knew that deep down , the woman whod been Ann Reed and the woman who was now Aurora DeVere were the same .

But then she straightened her spine and looked me in the eye .

The fact that she was brave enough now to stand up for herself , and stand up to me , was the sexiest fucking thing Id ever seen .

Are you sure you want this ? she asked .

Because I still cant unhear what you said all those years ago about drinking silver rather than having children with me .

I cant help but think … if you started to hate me again … Chapter 72 2/5 Her voice lost its steadiness , and she stopped to take a breath .

That wont happen , I said .

I know the truth about you now .

I pushed hair from her face , but she turned and walked a few paces away , her arms still wrapped around herself .

How can you know the truth about me when Im not even sure I do ? I followed her , stood behind her , and put my hands on her hips .

At my lightest touch , she allowed me to pull her against me .

I rested my forehead on her silvery hair and breathed in .

Nothing had ever smelled as good as this woman .

It still felt like sin , being close to her .

Allowing myself to desire her .

The first night we met , I knew on a deep level it was my job to protect you .

I frowned .

She laughed without humor

I stiffened , and she moved forward to put a hand on
