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

Chapter 0501

"You will command them to come here."

"I'll do jackshit until you explain your reasons?"

"They are hiding things from us, something that has a direct impact on our security"

"Jaxon you can't go around making such claims without proof." I pipe up, feeling protective of the Arancea's.

"Oh, I have proof." His eyes dart to mine, a heated glare sent my way.

"No Jaxon, they are their own pack we have no right to interfere with what happens within their pack unless it directly impacts us or they call for help." Dad's aura oozes out of him, moving to match Jaxon's. But this isn't Jaxon's full aura, he continues to keep it truly hidden. "Oh, this impacts us." A rumble vibrates off him.

But now I know, Mum could have him collapsing on the floor within seconds.

"I can't say." Jaxon seethes out, surprisingly not sharing his proof.

"They need to come here, on a matter of urgency." Jaxon continues, not backing down.

"Hector, no.." Mum clicks her tongue.
