The Rebel
Chapter 20

Logan’s POV:

Pinning his wrists above his head, I sank my teeth deeper. Just a few centimeters from its main vein.

The betrayal she did to me flashed before my eyes, the murder of my parents was relived there.

His b***d was similar to his, it reeked of that bastard.

And I hated everything related to him, even her.

“Don’t hurt him!” The partner is not at fault. The companion is injured! ” my wolf screamed in my mind, but I didn’t stop.

The recording of her entering Arnold’s prison and taking him out of there kept me going.

Treason ! Disappointment !

It was the only thing I could think about at the moment.

Her audacity in thinking that she could reject me and walk away from me after cheating on me made my grip on her wrist tighten.

“I will never let you go, Vera. Never ! »

She was losing too much b***d, I could see her white shirt turning red, but I couldn’t stop.

I saw red. I am blinded by pain and anger.

“Don’t hurt him!” Stopped ! “, my wolf shouted to me and that’s when I released her. The wave of pleasure that made her m**n against her will and the mark to highlight.

His struggles suddenly stopped and I kissed the skin that my canines had torn.

I sealed it, trying to stop the b***d. I could feel my royal mark on her neck, taking on her shape and I felt happy for the first time.

Glad she’s mine, forever.

I made a double mark on it and you could clearly see them.

There were two circles surrounding my royal Lycan mark on his neck.

And I kissed her again, completely stopping the flow of b***d.

It glowed yellow for a few seconds and I closed my eyes.

It was finally over.

She was mine.

I looked up to see her lying on my bed, beneath me.

Leaving her wrists, I saw red marks covering her pale, delicate wrists and cursed in my head.

“Was I too hard on her?” »

My eyes softened and my anger disappeared. I bent down to replace his shirt covered in b***d and regret filled my insides.

But, this was nothing new. Historically, no female has been strong enough to endure the double-marking ceremony without passing out, the excruciating pain equivalent to all the bones breaking in your body.

And my partner was no exception to the rule.

Cleaning it with my fingers, I placed my palm on his forehead.

She was burning.

And I sighed.

Lowering myself on top of her, I looked at her peaceful face, my eyes drifted to her lips which drew b***d from biting them.

My breath hit her and I closed my eyes.

“I’m sorry, Vera, but I have to do this,” I whispered, a heaviness settling over me.

Kissing her lips gently, I tried to heal her with my Lycan abilities.

The sparks ignited, stronger this time, now that the mark was completed.

“I wanted to give you heaven, but you chose this hell for yourself, Vera.

If you had trusted me and told the truth, I would have laid the world at your feet.

But now that I know that you are faithful to your bastard brother and father.

You will be a pawn for me, Vera.

You ruined my perfect plan and you have to pay for it, Vera. »

Placing a comforter over her and joining her in bed, I ran my fingers through her soft hair. Its scent had me hooked like a lovesick puppy meeting its crush.

As I moved her hair aside to touch her mark, I enjoyed her body’s reaction, even though she was unconscious.

His body moved closer to me, his head resting on my arm.

His head was tilted to the side and my mark gleamed on his neck.

Beautiful, was the only word I could say.

Rubbing circles on her waist with my other hand, I pulled her body closer to me.

Our skins touched each other completely.

The tingles exploded everywhere.

Activating my mental link, I ordered Ben to send my message to King Alpha.

His presence next to me surprisingly made me feel complete and confident.

I looked at the moon shining through the window and waited.

Knowing I was going to get the call any second.

Arthur Knight has been searching for his lost daughter for 19 years.

And I wondered how he would react knowing I had it.

His greatest weakness and my most precious possession.

My finger moved to the royal mark on her shoulder and I stared at it.

It was the emblem of the bastard empire.

Who belonged to me.

Turning her around and making her forehead touch my chest, I enjoyed the moment until it lasted.

My face in the crook of his neck, kissing my mark on his neck again.

Leaving light k****s along her neck, trying to soothe the pain that might still ache her.

“Oh Vera. How stupid of you to think that I wouldn’t know who you really are.

The day I found no trace of your existence, I knew you were not like the others.

You were different and I was right. »

My thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of my phone on the side table and I smiled.

It was quick.

Using my other free arm to pick it up, I let her rest her head on my shoulder while I pressed the green button and answered.

“Greetings, King Alpha. How can this noble man serve you tonight? I asked with a smirk only to have him roar back. His voice burned with fury as he asked me the question I was impatiently waiting for.

“You bastard!” Where is my daughter? »

And I looked up at her, running my finger across her cheek and pushing her bangs behind her ear. A smirk played on my lips as I answered him.

… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …

And I looked up at her, running my finger across her cheek and pushing her bangs behind her ear. A smirk played on my lips as I answered him.

“In my arms, King Alpha. She is indeed beautiful. »

The line went silent for a second. People thought the Alpha King had stopped looking for his kidnapped daughter, but I knew he hadn’t.

His fifth of the total force is still busy trying to replace the girl with the royal mark on her shoulder.

And now I had it.

Like mine.

Marked and claimed completely.

“With that brown hair and those dark brown eyes.” She probably took on her mother’s features. »

“You bastard!” Don’t you dare touch her! How dare you…”

“Ah my Alpha King. Lower your voice, even I can raise it, but I don’t want your princess to wake up. »

He took deep breaths to calm down and I smiled to myself.

GOOD.

She’s really his only weakness.

The girl he thought he lost to fate when the thugs kidnapped her at a young age.

The girl in whom he saw the replica of his companion, the woman he loved only to do him harm all his life and whom he later regretted having lost.

” What do you want ? “, he asked and I inhaled my partner’s perfume. I loved how it calmed me and energized me at the same time.

“What I want depends on what you are willing to give, my King,” I said, standing up and placing Vera’s head on the pillow.

I walked over to the windowsill and looked at the moon outside.

I answered.

“How much do you think your princess Zara Saravera is worth to you, Arthur?” »

“As far as I know, you never cared about her when you had her. »

“Shut up, bastard!” You don’t know anything at all! Don’t come near her, I promise to burn your pack to ashes if you touch her! To f*****g kill everyone! »

And I smiled while moving my head in a no.

“Shh, Arthur. You’re too late. I’ve done a lot more than that. »

Straightening my back, my voice turned cold and I tightened my grip on my phone.

All humor disappeared from my voice.

“I marked her as mine and I’m going to love watching you try to take her away from me now.” »

I heard something break in the background and I knew it was about to transform.

“What do you want, bastard?” he asked, and that’s when I turned around and leaned my back on the wall, staring at his sleeping face.

“Your everything, Arthur. Every thing you took away from me.

Including your daughter.

I’m going to completely ruin you, Arthur Knight.

And that’s a promise from King Logan. »
