Chapter 55 

No one knew of his inner fury. He glared daggers at Locksworth, his fists whitening at the 

knuckles. His lips tugged up to showcase his canines threateningly. Hestia, who was now 

out of the initial shock, noticed Landon’s jealous fit but said nothing. 

She merely stood by his side, watching with calculating eyes. 

Intrigue hit me in the face. I wondered why she wasn’t blowing a fuse. Seeing her husband act like this would’ve angered her no doubt, but at the same time Landon couldn’t help it 

because of the mate bond. If I knew Hestia as well asI thought I did, she would’ve 

disregarded the mate bond excuse and still find her anger pointing at him. But none of that ensued. Strange enough, she was calm and collected. Not like the emotional mess I expected 

her to be. 

My focus returned to Locksworth. The fierce look of determination in 

deep in his features. His hand was still outstretched to me; waiting. 

His large hand meaning to hold mine. 

my eyes set 

Waves of satisfaction rumbled from my wolf at the thought. She purred, nudging her head against mine in encouragement. She wanted to feel it as much as I did. To feel his large hand covering mine, his long fingers intertwined with mine, his heat mixing with mine. 

She wanted everything. 

Quickly, I shut out my bond with Noah. I was getting careless with the kind of emotions reaching him. He most likely caught a sense of what I was thinking. Embarrassingly enough, I knew he would’ve made this a big deal if he had known the effect Locksworth had on me. The effects that even I was confused of. Their origin was so unclear and confusing I knew that words probably wouldn’t be enough to express them. It was like I was dying of thirst and he was a tall glass of iced water just waiting to be chugged down. 

For the first time since meeting Locksworth, my wolf fell silent right after and retreated into the back of my mind. She left me to figure this out myself. Just watching as she laid on her stomach with her head resting on her paws. 

Wow.

“Do you already have a mate?” 

Locksworth asked, a slight edge to his voice. His clouded eyes darkened, cold but intense 

with scorching heat burning through me. I almost felt pressured under his scrutinizing 

gaze. A gaze that dared me to answer. 

The instinct that urged me to comfort him hit me. My fingers twitched to touch him. To 

soothe him of his tension. No words of threat were made, yet his gaze alone made me feel 

intimidated. This was who he is. The intimidatingly dangerous Alpha that everyone 

Werved away from. 

He was the Bloodlust Alpha. 

Raizel Locksworth. 

I began to fully understand the weight of his title and importance as the ranking num 

one. Meeting him now, I understood just how he was able to control everyone around 

0 

like a pawn. His aura alone was enough to make the strongest of Alphas to submit. 

He was made 

Mup of overwhelming power. 

Power he knew how to use fully. 

My lips parted, but no words came out. 

For a second, I was far too taken with the depth of his cold eyes to properly respond. But I 

was quick to catch myself. Shaking myself out of my daze, I pressed my lips in a thin line. Landon, from the corner of my eyes, stiffened at the question. 

If I answered yes, his wolf would be satisfied but then his reputation would be tarnished. No one picks another over their true mate, but he did. It would surely cause problems for him. On the other hand, if I said no, his wolf would feel rejected but his reputation would 

be saved. 

Sadly for him, I didn’t take his feelings into consideration. 

“No. I don’t.” 

The air went thick. Landon’s shoulders slumped, a look of pain over his expression. He turned away, hands tight and clenched. I didn’t miss the way my father glanced over to me
