ZIA
I was so shocked that I couldn’t move for a second. His lips were unmoving against mine but so firm that I had a hard time breathing.
Aiden w was kissing me.
What the
fuck
Before I could push him away, a loud noise startled us both. Aiden detached our lips and glanced over his shoulder.
I took this chance to throw his arms away and take a step back. Aiden turned around, giving me his back while I breathed heavily, trying to understand what was happening here
Uncle–
-I told you not to show up in my territory without permission.” Maximus voice was clipped, and harsh
I shuddered, wiping my lips with the back of my hand. This felt so wrong. Aiden was not supposed to kiss me, and Maximus was not supposed to
witness that.
– Uncle, I was so worried-
Get our “Maximus interrupted him agai
was moment
Reluctantly, I peeked around Aiden’s shoulder. Maximus was still sitting on his chair, but his eyes were blazing now. It felt like he wa away from covering the distance between us and strangling Aiden—or maybe me
I swallowed, disgusted by the lingering taste of Aiden’s mouth on my lips. This asshole didn’t know when to stop.
-1 will, Uncle. I will get out right now. “Aiden said and turned to me.“Come on,
“What?” My gaze moved to his face to find him staring
g down at me
at me softly.
“Let’s go home. “Aiden reached out and grabbed my hand, his grip gentle enough to surprise mi
This was what I wanted. All that time he spent with Emily and hurt me on purpose, this was all I wanted him to do to fix what went wrong between
ן
But now, I felt nothing. It was a different kind of pain to realize that I had become numb to everything about Aiden. His emotions, his gentleness. or his efforts didn’t matter anymore.
* Aiden, what gave you the idea that I am going anywhere with you? “I pried my hand free once more and sighed
Zia. Uncle doesn’t want us to stay here. We need to go back. I can’t-
He is not asking me to leave. “I shook my head and folded my arms
ms across my chest. I am staying with the Alpha King’s permission. The Alpha King won’t send me out there unless I want to go.”
Aiden’s brows furrowed in confusion. He looked at me for a moment, causing a spike in my heart rate, before he turned and looked at Maximus
Uncle, is she-
* Spend one more moment here, and you will not leave without a broken bone. Aiden Maximus firm voice cut him off once more.
1 could sense the anger radiating off Aiden’s body, but he was not a fool to go against Maximus,
I had heard before. In the Caine family. Maximus was regarded as the one with the most influence. Most of his relatives were always against him. but they couldn’t speak up because he had his father’s support—the suppon of the previous Alpha King.
That was not the only reason behind the power he held. It was said that no one could ever defeat him in combat and shifter fight. He was stronger, and fast, and unpredictable.
That’s how he managed to snatch a lot of territory from the vampires and other supernaturals in a matter of five years.
Before, I thought it was all because he was a strong werewolf, but now I knew.
He was a Hybrid, and Hybrids were stronger than all werewolves and vampires because of their combined powers of both races.

That’s why they were hated, too. In the werewolf world, and among vampires, it was an unspoken rule that if someone was ever proved to be a Hybrid, they would be executed right away. No questions were asked, and no answers were given.
They didn’t care if the said Hybrid was a child, a woman, or someone innocent. Death was the only ending for a Hybrid.
His voice
* Aiden trailed off
brought me out of the trance. My body jolted in shock at his fingers brushed the back of my hand, silently asking me to accompany him.
But I couldn’t focus on him.
My eyes went behind him to meet the eyes of the Alpha King, who was watching me furiously.
Death—would be his ending if he was discovered. That thought had my lungs constricted.
At that moment. I realized that I didn’t like the idea of Maximus dying. That thought made my heart ache.
− 1 will return when I have recovered, I can’t face your mistress and her minions in this condition. “I stated in a robotic voice and shrugged Aiden’s hand off.
Aiden stared at me, his eyes filled with so many emotions. But what was the use now!
I didn’t lose my feelings for Aiden in a single day. It was a slow process. First, I lost my trust, then my attachment, and when he finally slept with Emily, I lost my fragile love for him too- -a love I had forced upon myself because it was my duty to love the man who would only ever have me
as his woman
Go, Aiden. “I whispered and stepped away, giving him the way to leave.
Aiden remained there for a moment longer, his eyes narrowed, and his lips pressed in a thin line. My hands clenched by my side, my eyes burning with the efforts of restraining my emotions.
Then, he stormed away without looking back for even once.
Yes, that’s how it was supposed to be.
He never once looked back after Emily came, and now I didn’t want him to look back at me.
Do you still love him! “A deep voice seethed right beside my ear, making me jump.
nus and came to stand right beside me.
My heart missed a beat as I glanced at Maximus. I didn’t even notice when he covered the distance between us his head lowered and his jaw gritted.
– What do you think! ” I whispered as Maximus‘ gaze lowered to my moist lips.
He reached out and wiped my lips with his rough thumb. He rubbed until I winced.
“I don’t care. “Maximus gripped my arm with his free hand and pulled me to his chest
A shudder ran down the length of my body. Maximus–
“I don’t care if you love him, but the next time he touches you, I will find a way to kill him and dispose of his body discreetly. No one will ever find him again, and it will be on you.” His warm breaths caressed my aching lips as he emphasized every single word.
Heat slathered down my veins and hit my core, making me arch into him. “You will do that to your nephew??
His lips curled into a sinister smile, setting my veins on fire. You don’t know half the things I can do, Little one. And you will never know because –
-I won’t hurt you.
My blood froze in my veins. Our gazes clashed, and I found it impossible to look away from him.
Why did I believe him!
A man who could harm his nephew, his family could also hurt me, right?
But I still believed his words and the sincerity in his eyes.
I swallowed and started “Maximus- – –
But he cut me off emotionlessly.” Let’s start with the witch’s contract. I am done waiting.
