The Beast And The Blessed
Chapter 131
Twenty-Five: Joselin
Joselin's P.O.V.
I just wanted to invite her to join the council. Now I was trekking through the forest, blinded with fury, and wanting her dead.
She had said it was a favor, but it wasn't. It was a test. Whether she had tried to trick me into going under the disguise of a favor or Killian sent me, I would be sent regardless. She had already talked to Killian before trying to get me to agree as if I had a choice.
Knowing I wanted her to join, using the council position as leverage was sneaky.
I respected it.
Killian had wanted to know what was different this time than when he would send me on quests in the past. The answer was simple. I had something I longed to come home for this time. I had Tobias.
All the other trips or missions he sent me on were because he didn't trust anyone else to know or be involved in them. But at least with those, he had given me most of the information I needed to stay safe.
I used to go in, slinging magic and drawing blood. I took what we wanted or needed and went home to my tower. As much as I wanted there to be, I had nothing waiting for me back there. Nothing hanging over my head, telling me I had to come back to them or reminding me what I was fighting for beyond it being my job, just another assignment.
Now, I had Tobias. I had someone to love, and the idea of not coming home to him scared me. The idea of anyone hurting him frightened me even more. Aurora using her magic on him, had me seeing red, and it took everything in me to resist the urge to gut her like a pig.
I would have done it if Killian hadn't ordered me to stand down. Her life should have flashed before her eyes, but she just smiled as she stared at me with pride. She had enjoyed my show of dominance and possession. It made me even more curious about what was happening inside her head.
Killian had given Tobias permission to walk me to the edge of town before we had to part ways, and the kiss he had left me with made my toes curl and my chest warm. It was the best kiss of my life, and I hoped it wouldn't be my last.
"Crazy old bitch,” I mumbled as I walked around a fallen tree.
I did have to admit that while I was livid to be separated from Tobias right after we finally became something, I was terribly curious.
If it weren't something cool, like a dragon, I would probably return home and kill Aurora just for the disappointment she caused me.
