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

"You've blocked the memories of her." I seethe out, what was he hiding. He looks into my eyes puzzled until I see realisation dawn upon his face. Whatever it is, it's enough for him to hit the side of his head.

trying to thaw my frostiness.

That he has been jealous too without understanding what agreement was in place. He acted out in anger, letting his emotions get the better of him.

But I don't, I know for a fact that will just escalate things further.

"I'm just struggling with why she is still here that's all. And don't tell me you wouldn't be feeling the

same."

"You're cute when jealous."

"Jace." This was serious. But he has a way of making me laugh, of me not being angry at him for too long.
