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

Chapter 163 DANE 1/5 I respected a cunning woman , and the one who called herself Aurora Montague was a cunning woman , indeed .

I might not have been on the lookout for a trap if she hadnt been so intent on toying with that necklace .

Aurora wore stillness and cool composure like warriors wore armor and weapons .

When she kept touching that necklace , I knew something was wrong .

Then I felt the air gel around my body , and Id had no more than an instant to react .

Now I couldnt move , except to breathe , blink , and speak .

But I had her pinned with her back against my chest .

She pressed hard against me ; her chin lifted to keep her neck from pressing into my raised claws .

If she relaxed , if she even twitched , my claws would open her throat , and there would be nothing I could do about it .

It had been a clever move , but my wolf hated it .

He snapped and snarled and paced inside my mind , and nothing I did could calm Chapter 163 him .

2/5 Not for killing , he growled at me when I could get him to answer at all .

She is not for killing .

I shoved the wolf down deep and murmured into Auroras ear , What will it be , Luna ? Will you trade my life for yours ? Aurora ! Trajan , her giant beta , stood in his lycan form just on the other side of the barrier .

So did a handful of other wolves .

Some I knew , some … I almost remembered .

Well ? I growled softly .

Would you ? I would die for you in an instant .

Her voice was barely a breath .

Even so , I felt my claws slide just a fraction into her skin .

Felt their edges go warm with blood .
