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

Chapter 162 AURORA Thanks to Morwen , it was easy to pinpoint the places Dancs shadows were attacking .

Trajan , Evander , and the others hid in the forest in their wolf forms while I walked directly out to the barrier .

Dane stood on the other side of it .

He didnt have any of his werewolves with him , but the shadow wolves he commanded were at his side , spread out and attacking .

Before I even stepped into his view , it was like I could feel his eyes on me .

Aurora , he said as I came to a stop just on the inside of the barrier , inches from the snapping jaws of the wolves .

I shivered .

I didnt remember much about my few days under the Namelesss control , but I remembered those wolves .

I remembered using them to push Holden from a cliff and kill him .

That winter it had snowed hard , and as far as I knew , his body still hadnt been found .

It would take a warm year to thaw the mountains that high up .

Chapter 162 2/5 Dane .

I pulled a polite smile onto my face , even though my body was reacting to the sight of him like it always did .

Elevated heartbeat , heat through my body , unsteady breath .

Every time I saw him , he was just so beautiful .

So undeniably sexy .

I thought Id appreciated that before , but being deprived of him for two years magnified everything .

I eyed the wolves , and the barrier between us .

The magical trap the witches had built into my pendant wouldnt work with the barrier between us it had been created to keep magic from passing through .

That meant I would have to step outside the barrier if I wanted to try and trap Dane .

Once we had him , we had a special cell set up in the dungeon below the packhouse .

It had been made comfortable and was magic proofed in every way we could think of to try and weaken the influence of the Nameless .

I had no idea if it would work , but I desperately wanted to try .

Why are you here attacking my barrier ? And so alone ? I asked in a low voice .

The corner of Danes mouth ticked up in a ghost of a smile , and he gestured at his shadow wolves .

Im no more alone than you are .

My backup is blood and bone , I said .

Yours is nothing more Chapter 162 than a trick of the light .

3/5 Danes smile grew .

Is it ? Then why dont you step outside with 1 toyed with the pearl pendant , then stepped closer to the barrier .

Dane was already standing right in front of it , and my movement brought me close enough that there were inches between us .

Maybe it was an illusion , but I swore I could feel his warmth .

The barrier didnt stop the flow of air .

It didnt keep out heat or scent .

Danes nostrils subtly flared as I closed the distance between us .

coming as close to the barrier as I dared .

While the areas over the roads were made to pass through easily , the barrier here in the forest was different .

A person could enter or exit , but unless they were unconscious , it was much harder to pull them through against their will .

He might try to grab me , but the magic wouldnt make it easy .

I just want to speak with you , I said , my voice low .

Earlier tonight … My gaze dropped to his lips .

It might have seemed like I was seducing him on purpose , but I was the one who had been seduced years ago .

I meant every word , every look .

I ached for Dane .

Chapter 162 I wanted him back .

From the way his eyes darkened , something in him 4/5 remembered , and something in him wanted me , too , despite the influence of the Nameless .

Dane dismissed his wolves .

Be careful , Luna , Trajan growled in my mind .

I could feel his seething need to snatch me away from the barrier and carry me back to the pack house , but though he might complain , Trajan had always respected my ability to make my own choices .

Thats why he was my beta .

Be on guard , I replied .

He wants me , Trajan , but hes still so deep in the shadows .

Then I took a breath and stepped through the barrier .

The instant I did , my hand leaped to the pearl at my throat , and I unleashed my trap .

Energy blasted from the necklace .

It circled Dane , hardening the air around him as if he were stuck in gelatin .

But he moved too fast .

Before he could freeze completely , he snatched me against his body and pressed one long claw against my throat .

By the time he was fully caught in the spell , I was , too .

The way he had me pinned against his body meant that if I tried to Chapter 162
