•••Jason's POV•••

'Her parents are dead?'

. . . Ki's blood started boiling at the very thought of our Maria having to go through that.

And all I can think about is the pain she must have gone through. . .

I was about to run over and scoop her up in my arms and never let her go, but Aden said something funny apparently, and the tension decreased in my angel's face and everyone went back to semi-normal.

  I suppose there's another way I can take her in my arms though. . .

"Well, you're always talking about how I don't know what I'm dealing with. . ."

Ehhh, maybe not such a good idea. She just took down Aden. . . And Aden can sometimes pin even me.

'We should fight her.'

  Ki, I don't think —

  "Let's spar," Ki's darker, rougher voice came through my mouth.

  Well, so much for that.

  Maria analyzed me for a second. She can no doubt see Malaki in my eyes. His glowing golden orbs are pretty hard to miss.

  Why does he keep doing this?

  Why do I keep letting him?!


  This is twice now that he's gotten the jump on me and taken the forefront. I haven't been this out of control of him sense I was younger.

  It's seen as pretty important to train alphas to control their wolf early on, for obvious reasons. No one wants an overpowered and savage wolf rampaging through a territory, or even worse, their own pack. Luckily, he hasn't completely broken out. Hasn't forced a shift.

  Not yet at least.

  But now, I'm terrified to shift at all. I'm worried about what he'll do if I let him out. What he'll do to a sexy little vampire, in particular.

  He won't hurt her.

  . . . Not too bad at least.

  But. . . He wants her to submit. And the terrifying part is what he'll do to get her to.

  I swear, the things he has flashing through my mind sometimes. . . She'll never forgive me for.

  Ha, what the h3ll am I saying?

  I took over her house.

  I don't know how she'll ever forgive me.

  Why am I doing this again?!

  'Because of what Master Apollyon would do if we chickened out and let Maria get back into power!'

Oh. . . Right. You don't wanna piss someone off who's name literally means the destroyer.

  'Plus, WE'RE the alpha d@mnit!'

  Goddess Ki.

  She stared for a few more seconds. She's aware that if she excepts, she'll be fighting both of us. Not just me.

  'Hm, maybe she's not as naive as we thought,'

  As you thought.

  'She doesn't want to go against our power —'
