Defy The Alpha(s)

Chapter 518: Meet Elijah

"Thank you for having us," Violet said to Mother Thessara. It was time for them to leave. Griffin and the Nova had returned safely during the night, and they made the decision to leave the next day.

They were no longer safe here, not to mention, the mating fever had subsided.

It was only a matter of time before Elijah found them, so they decided to make the job easier for him. It was not like they were hiding because they did something wrong anyway — except maybe, kill Alpha Henry.

Yep, that part was going to be hidden forever.

Mother Thessara’s hands closed over Violet’s and said, "Child, it is a blessing to carry more than one bond. Do not see it as a burden. The goddess grants such gifts rarely and may she walk with you always."

"Thank you." Violet nodded in understanding, a warm smile on her face.

Roman stepped forward and slid an arm around her waist possessively. "It’s time to go, my mate." He emphasized on the word, "Mate."

Honestly, it was still hard to believe that he was bond to Violet. Perhaps, why he kept calling her that to remind himself it was no dream.

Griffin, standing taller than both of them, inclined his head to the Moonmother. "We’ll be in touch," he said simply.

They’d have to pay for the damages to the temple. Not that money was any issue. For now, they had bigger problems ahead.
