The Beast And The Blessed

Chapter 142

Thirty-Five: Tobias

Tobias's P.O.V.

Never in my life had my dick gone limp as quickly as when I was staring at the bones of an amputated leg. Until that moment, I had thought Joselin could keep me painfully hard forever. I had been hiding how she affected me for years. Now that I no longer had to, I wanted to take full advantage of the situation, i

She was my mate. Mine.

I could fuck her and love her anywhere, and I planned on it. Seeing how hot and bothered she got over the thought of fucking here only confirmed that when we got home, there would be a few places around the castle that I could pull her away to without any complaint from her. It was even better than claiming her in front of others.

Sneaking around and enjoying each other was higher on my list than exhibitionism. At the top of the list was having Joselin all to myself in our bed.

I still needed to help her gather her belongings and move in. But even if that didn't happen immediately, I would still consider it our house and bed.

But a fucking leg. I had seen worse, done worse than cutting off someone's leg, but never had I expected to find one in someone's bedroom. It was disturbing.

Rona was a twisted soul, but I never pegged her as the kind of woman who would fall asleep only a few feet from the amputated limb of one of her coworkers.

"We need to get back," Joselin muttered, her mind going a mile a minute. She left the leg behind, straightened the blanket on the bed, and pulled her pants back on. When she approached me to teleport, I gently tapped my finger on her head, silently asking what was going through her mind.

This was what she had wanted, to find proof of foul play, but it raised more questions than answers.

"It doesn't make sense. No blood is left, and the bone marrow is dried out and won't work. I don't know what Rona is doing with it, but she is up to something. This confirms it." Joselin said, her long white hair flowing down her back as the lines on her skin vibrated with agitation.

I would keep a close eye on the older woman. She was pretty civil unless she was around Rona, which made them both hostile.
