The Alpha King’s Human Mate

Chapter 89

Chapter 89

“Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.”

Rumi

As it turned out, accessing the bond was not as easy as I thought it would be. I tried everything — picturing Griffin’s face

in my mind, thinking about us physically together, even imagining some psychic thread that tied us together.

None of it worked.

Iwas no closer to accessing the bond than before, and the only thing Pd gotten was a headache.

I’d never really wished to be a werewolf, but at that moment, all I

wanted was a wolf. If not for the supernatural strength that might give me a solid shot against Liam, then just so I could

have a little spiritual guidance. A wolf spirit in my head telling me what to do? Yeah, that’d be very helpful right about

now.

Come on, Clark. You can do this. You accessed the bond once before. You just have to figure out how to do it again.

I took another shot at picturing Griffin’s face in my mind, thinking Chapter 89

about what I’d tell him if he was here. Still nothing.

Briefly, | wondered if I could access the bond without feeling it, but dismissed that idea pretty quickly. The first time I’d

done this, I had definitely felt it.

What was it that Ivan had told me? That it was possible to access the bond with heightened emotions? Maybe that’s what I need to do.

Thad tried my hardest to stay calm these days, thinking that I needed to keep a clear head if I wanted to escape. But

maybe the key wasn’t burying those negative emotions, but embracing them, letting them overwhelm me.
