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

- Cleo -

The three of them prowl towards us...like gods disguised in human form that threaten to

release a new hell on earth.

Their kind of hell.

They walk side by side until Jace takes a wider stride forward, a triangle formation settling amongst the three of them.

Warriors creep in behind them, at first slow...then forming into an unstoppable destructive tidal wave, promising a swift death to the pack members of the Amber Desert lands.

Dominating the lands that they invade. If you stood in their way, they just washed over you.

I've never seen anything like it, not even the night the White Moon pack attacked. Than does nothing, he doesn't run to the aid of his own people...he remains here...leaving them to fight for themselves.

The innocent screams echoing against the thunder clouds above us.

With one twist of the wrist from Jaxon, the warriors spread out, a bolt of lightening laminates the night sky...offering a spot light upon the pack lands.

A short lived glimpse of the horror that has fallen upon the pack.

Suddenly it isn't the silver bullet in the gun currently pointed towards me that puts fear into me, but the Varon triplets....they came for war. A war of my own making. But this was a massacre.

A growl escapes me when Knox and Callie move behind them...they weren't mates but he still brought her here. Perhaps Kaia had it wrong all along...perhaps they really can't be apart.

Like me, everyone was watching them...watching every footstep as they moved closer and closer towards us.
