Brayden did not let her go. If anything, now he clenched her towards himself tighter in a useless hope that he had misheard the Lycan king right now.
But when Gideon stood up and moved in their direction, he knew that he had lost. He had just lost everything.
“I don’t like to repeat myself,” the lycan looked at him with a challenge in his eyes, “You need to step away from my mate. Now.”
The silence in the room was long and awkward but after a while Brayden unclenched his fingers and Riannon stepped away. Gideon did not waste any time and pulled her towards him. Rubbing her arm where her ex-husband was just holding her.
“Ria, did he hurt you?” he asked in a fake-sweet tone, and Riannon knew that if they did not want the bloodshed, she’d better shake her head and deny everything. He waited for them to be together for too long and his patience had its limits too.
“No, I am fine,” she said and her mate brushed his palm over her beautiful face, enjoying the tingles that the touch created. He could stay this way forever, but a sound of laughter distracted him.
It was cold and unnatural laughter on the verge of madness.
“Are you kidding me?!” Brayden rubbed his eyes and threw his head back, trying to calm down. Too many eyes were on him now and he needed to get the situation back in control.
It was bad. He was losing his wife and at least half of his pack. No one would ever look at him in the same way again. No one would let him ever forget what happened here today. So, he had to act and he had to act fast.
“So, was this the plan all along?” he scoffed, “This is how the lycans now try to get our lands? You don’t want war, so you are just going to marry daughters of Alphas and grab their packs in the process?”
Neither Ria nor Gideon liked what he was implying now. And some of the alphas in the room became visibly more anxious. In the end, the territory was one thing they were all ready to fight for. Always.
“Can’t you see what he’s doing right now?” Brayden continued, “He is using my wife to weaken me and to expand his Kingdom! I’m sure that he’s not even your mate, Riannon! Are you sure that this is not some kind of witchery? You two met before and neither of you seemed to be shouting that you were mates.”
“You’d better shut up about it now,” Gideon growled, “before you say something that
Ria knew exactly what kind of game her now ex-husband was playing, so she placed her palm on the king’s chest. The gesture immediately calmed him down. Their eyes met just for a
“It may come as a surprise to you,” she started speaking softly, but it was only pretence, “but some people know how to control their wolves and their urges. It requires tremendous willpower that you clearly do not possess considering the situation we are in now, but it can still be done. We simply controlled ourselves and behaved like people and not animals. Out of respect for you and our marriage in the first place. You should try that sometimes. And as for my lands, they will always remain mine. Gideon has enough of his own. He doesn’t need to take anything from his woman other than love.”
