Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Chapter 0227

Kaia POV

"What just happened?" I ask breathlessly as Hector reverses the car out of the hiding space and back onto the small road.

He was in such a hurry to get some distance between us and the hut that he didn't even remove the tree branches from the top of the car.

As soon as he reversed out, the car gives a crunch noise and I'm certain the exterior roof has now been damaged.

"Let me just think. Oh yes, my wolf was banished temporarily while I had to hear about other males were better at keeping you safe." Hector growls as he floors the gas pedal, getting us as far away from the woods as possible.

"Do you believe what she said, about the white wolf being creating by the moon goddess to protect humans?" I ask as I strap myself in.

"What she says goes against my research, which means she could be telling the truth. That she actually did break away from the pack before they killed her for going against them..." I nod along to his words until I actually take note of what he just said. "I hadn't realised I had stunned you during training. Why didn't you tell me at the time?" I glance at him, a frown forming upon my face. Had I hurt him.

"I didn't know what to think of it, I didn't know if it was the mate bond...or something else. Now we know."

""Did it hurt?"

His eyes flicker to me before darting back to the road.

""Hector?" I growl.
