Chapter 224

Yorick

My hands clench into fists. You've got to be fucking kidding me. This tool? This is the man who thinks he's going to take what's mine?

"I told you! was going to come visit you, Cyra. Imagine my surprise when you weren't home. I figured you were out. But you were so adamant when we talked about how busy you've been with your studies that I assumed you'd be back any minute. So, I waited." He glanced at her, but obviously realizing that we've been together all night, his eyes returned to me.

"We got caught in the rain," she says.

"Right," he says, his tone indicating his disbelief.

Cyra turns and looks at me, her eyes pleading with me not to start anything.

"I need to shower," I tell her, walking past her.

The tool steps in my way. "I'm Alpha Stellan."

"Yeah, I heard. I'm Alpha Yorick," I say, stepping around him and walking to the showers.

"I'm Cyra's betrothed," he calls out, and I spin around, Thad pushing forward. Before I can take a step, Cyra is between us, her hand on my chest.

"I'm her fated mate. So if you want you to go, Stellan, let's have a go," I snarl. "Yorick, go shower," she says softly.

I glare at the man, while Thad thrashes around in my head trying to get to him. He just smirks at me like he's already won. Shit, I'll get my family to attack his pack just because he thinks he can take what's mine. And then I'll wipe that smug grin off his face.

"Yorick, please," she says. I pull my eyes away from him and look at her.

'Please,' she mouths.

I tear myself away and go into my room, getting my clothes before stomping down the hallway to the showers.

"Here Stellan, come into my room. I need to shower too," I hear Cyła say.

"What the fuck is with all the flowers, Cyra?" he asks when she opens her door. Good, let him see that one of us knows how to take care of her.

I don't wait to hear her response as I push through the doors to the bathroom and go to the shower stalls.

strip off my clothes and stand under the water. I close my eyes and punch the wall, leaving a hold in it.

'We should kill him now. He cannot have our mate,' Thad snarls in my head.

'No, he can't,' I snarl back, just as I feel her hand on my back.
