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

Chapter 131 AURORA Isto in blackness .

It wasnt the soft darkness of night , or the kind that felt like it would shelter me from prying eyes .

No , it was deeper than that .

Like the darkness of being far beneath the earth .

Like a place where light had never been , and never existed .

Aurora ….

I shuddered and blinked , then realized the stone was in front of me .

It was tall , with bands of inscriptions around wrapped around it at about the height of my head .

Aurora … The sound of my name came again .

I felt like it was coming from the stone .

Its time to set me free … I shook my head .

Id heard this voice before , in the past , in other shadowy visions .

It always seemed to be connected to who the Reeds wanted me to be the woman I had been before Id lost my memory and become Jacksons unwanted wife .

Long , inky fingers wrapped around the edge of the stone .

A 2/5 Chapter 131 figure leaned out as if it were peering at me .

I couldnt see anything of it but its shape shadow on shadow .

It slide out from behind the stone .

That was the only way I could describe its movement .

It was too smooth to be a walk .

It md to me , human shaped but disappearing into a mass if shadowed coils on the ground , like billowing smoke .

Its time , the figure said .

For the first time in any of these visions , I could hear that its voice was deep and masculine , as sinuous and smooth as its movements .

I felt frozen , like my feet were stuck in a block of ice .

My heart felt like a block of ice , as well .

So cold , just beating threatened to shatter it .

It lifted its long fingered hand to my face to caress it .

As it did , chains clinked .

I looked down and saw the shadow creature wore heavy manacles .

They chained its hands together .

Even heavier chains led back from each of its wrists to the bands of symbols on the stone .

As I watched , the symbols started to glow with red light , and so did the chains .

I shivered but couldnt seem to pull away from the creatures touch .

Who are you ? I am a prisoner , its voice now seemed to sound both in the air and in my mind .

Ive been kept here , bound to the stone .

Chapter 131 I didnt understand .

A prisoner ? 3/5 Beyond him , as if buried deep inside the stone , there was a feeling that reminded me of cool , flowing water .

Like my own magic .

The ic .

It was there , trapped inside the stone .

But the chains binding the creature made of shadows were wrapped around it , as well .

Yes .

In a way .

But Im also a guardian , bound to this stone for a thousand years to protect the relic .

Ive guided you all this time , he whispered .

His voice was beautiful .

The shadows shifted and almost resolved into a mans face , so perfect it made my breath catch .

I guided your mother , too .

Id been distracted by the relic , but now the guardian had my full attention .

You knew my mother ? gave He nodded gravely .

She was my greatest follower .

She up everything for me … and for you .

So that you would be ready when the time came .

Something felt off about his words , and I shook my head like I was trying to shoo away a fly that kept trying to land on my ear .

Ready for what ? To be my mate , of course .

I am the guardian , and you are destined to be the greatest Luna of all time .

Chapter 131 His fingers stroked my check .

The touch of shadow chilled me to the bone and numbed my skin so much that I could almost believe his hands were warm .

You are mine , he said .

You were meant to be mine .

His rds stole into my mind like a slowly rising fog .

Then his fingers tightened on my face .

But what is this ? Bound to another ? White flashed in the darkness his teeth , sharp and white .

He hooked a finger in the air over my chest , like he could see something there I couldnt .

Then a saw a silver thread caught on his finger .

It looked as if it were tied somewhere inside my chest and led away into the distance .

Interesting , the guardian whispered .

He looked at me with sympathetic eyes .

I could free you if you want .

This Alpha , I can tell hes not the one you want .

Holden .

I shuddered .

He made me … I dont want him … The guardian moved behind me , grasped my shoulders , and whispered against the sensitive shell of my ear , I know who you want .

You are destined for me , but Im not jealous .

You can have as many playthings as you desire .

Look .

He swirled his hand , and Dane appeared in front of me .

He was shirtless and bound .

I saw a vision of myself approach him .

I was wearing a dress that plunged in the back and front and spiked heels .

His eyes followed me , hungry and filled with desire .

But only desire .

There was nothing else there no caring , Chapter 131 no love .

5/5 You can have him if you want .

You can have everything .

Would you like your enemies , too ? I will give you everything .

I will lay the entire world at your feet .

I saw Evelyn appear on the ground ; her body so entirely wrapped in chains it was hard to see any of her .

She has hurt you more than most because of her selfishness .

She has always been selfish , serving herself instead of the people she should .

The words sounded oddly bitter , as if shed personally offended him .

The guardian , who was becoming more and more human every second , swirled around in front of me .

I can even give you your wolf back .

All you have to do is choose me .

What do you say ?
