Bab 59: Pity

59.

The smile on Caleb's face was more than a little deceptive. There was a big part of him that wanted Lucien to go bat shit crazy and tear apart everyone in this building, but there was another part that warned him that he would be caught in the same trap.

Adaline would never forgive Lucien if he hurt anyone under her protection, even if it was one of her fated mates. On the other hand, she wouldn't forgive Caleb if he allowed it either.

This standoff was going to have to come to a quick end in one way or another.

His inner animal was losing his fucking mind being away from Addy for so long.

Caleb snorted as he thought about the slap across the face he got today when he discovered that Addy was his mate for the first time. Never had he ever smelt something so enticing, and to realize that she was injured and needed help?
