Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate Novel

Chapter 106 AURORA I struggled and screamed , but no amount of tears or begging could convince Holden not to complete the binding ceremony with me .

Once the ribbon was tied around our wrists , the hooded figure started chanting in a strange language .

This wasnt the way it was supposed to be .

Binding ceremonies were tricky for me without my wolf .

It had taken five pack Elders from Broken Forest plus Waylon and Esther Reed to bind me to Dane the first time .

But the strange energy crackled in the air , and the magic smelled and felt strange .

The robed figure never pulled the hood down from their face , so I couldnt see them .

But I could tell , somehow , they werent a wolf .

This wasnt wolf magic wild and free and crystal as the moon .

It was something that felt like dirt in my mouth and smelled like death .

But I still couldnt fight it .

The magic rose to a crescendo and broke over us … And then I could feel him .

Chapter 106 Holden .

In my mind .

Looks like it worked … mate .

2/5 NO ! I shricked .

I struggled , fighting my bindings like a feral thing .

One of my arm restraints snapped .

I immediately started clawing the silver ribbon .

All the time I was sobbing , tears flowing down my face .

Danc … Dane … I didnt want to do this … goddess , please let this not be real .

Remove the ribbon before she shreds it ! the mysterious robed figure hissed .

I clawed at Holdens arm , leaving bloody streaks across his skin .

If I could rip it before he could take it off ….

Ah ! he cried .

Holdens hand flashed .

He slapped me so hard my head snapped to the side .

I saw stars .

By the time I recovered from being dazed , he had the ribbon off of our wrists and hidden away .

In one of his pockets ? Or had he given it to this … thing .

Stop fighting me , Holden snapped inside my mind , Or Ill make sure you never see the twins again .

Stop talking in my head ! I clawed at the restraint that held my other arm .

Holden leaned forward and undid it .

I sat up and started Chapter 106 3/5 untying my legs .

I got them free and swung my feet over the side .

of the stone altar Id been tied to .

I felt like I couldnt get my breath and my throat was clogged with tears .

I was out of control .

So desperately out of control .

I couldnt get a full breath .

And then … something calm pressed into my mind .

I started to sink into it .

Then I realized the calm feeling was coming from Holden .

Get out ! I wrenched my mind away from his and tried to jump from the altar .

Holden grabbed my wrists .

He squeezed them so hard I yelped in pain .

There would be bruises there when he let me go .

Listen to me , he growled , yanking my face close to his .

Youre mine now .

Like I told you that you would be .

You might as well stop fighting it .

Youll never break this binding .

Besides , Im a better match for you than Montague ever was .

Holden , please , I said through my tears .

If you were ever my friend , if you ever cared for me , you wouldnt make me do this .

Please , cut the ribbon .

Sever this bond .

Even as I spoke , I could feel is mind connected to mine .

I wanted to gag .

To be sick .

But he only gave me a faint version of his charming grin .

No.

Mm … goddess , it feels good to be able to have you like this .

To possess your emotions .

Your thoughts .

Chapter 106 You dont possess me , I retorted , sickened even more by his words .

You never will .

He leaned back .

Your grandmother will be pleased with this alliance .

Fall Line is almost as old a pack as High Alpine .

4/5 She wont be pleased , I retorted .

Shell go to war with you for doing this .

He smirked .

No.

If she didnt want me to make you my mate , she would have made me leave .

Instead , shes the one who talked Montague into letting me stay .

We both know it .

I hated his words for making sense .

I wanted to believe my grandmother wouldnt do that to me , but I knew her .

She would sacrifice anything for the security of the pack .

It was what made her such a terrifyingly good Luna .

Now , Holden said , grinning at me .

Youre going to do some things for me .

The first order of business is this .

He held up a book .

My book .

The one only I could translate .

Youre going to figure out what needs to be done for the final ceremonies .

Then … his smile grew wicked , Im going to send you back to Montague as a spy .

Im going to use you to bring down Blue Ridge , and youre going to do everything I say .

I snarled .

No , I wont .

Id never do that to Dane .

Now , Holden laughed .

The laugh sent chills down my spine .

You think so ? How about this .

I command you to do it .

As your Alpha .

Ill show Ill show you .

Lift your hand up like a good mate .

Chapter 106 Youre not my … ..

A feeling closed around my throat , like hands strangling me .

Magic pressed down on me , domineering and powerful .

I felt compelled to raise my hand .

The more I fought it , the less I could breathe .

I clawed my throat , choking .

Just as I was about to black out , I lifted my hand .

5/5 Air rushed into my lungs .

Holden smiled .

I cant wait to use the woman he loves to break him .
