Bonds that bind us novel Chapter 13

I look at Silas, who is still standing completely still as Indy tries to hug the shit out of him. But I see no dark cloud.

“A dark cloud? You mean like the darkness that can take hold of Lycans?”

Klaus shakes his head. “This is different, and it comes from dark magic. Xavi has one.” He points to the air above him.

“Going away helped you, didn’t it?” I ask quietly.

He looks at his new mate, and a smile slowly appears. “It was one of the best things I have ever done.” his hand casually runs through the white fur, and Xavi butts his head into Klaus’s leg. “Now we just need to kill the Witch to break the curse.”

“In the meantime, what do we do about that?” Dane points to Indy and Silas. She was still holding onto him.

“I’ve got it,” Brax scowls. He starts walking towards them but stops and pivots around to face us. “Where’s Madison?”

“Probably with Blair in the gardens,” I tell him.

"Maddie seems to keep Blair from getting into trouble."

He nods and turns back to Indy and Silas.

“Will you be staying?” I ask Klaus.

He looks at Xavi, “For now. This curse needs to be broken.”

“She needs to fucking die,” Dane growls.

Klaus rolls his eyes. “Xavi says, in the most glorious way possible.”

“That can be arranged.” Dane smiles and winks at me.

“Indy, you have to let him go.” Brax snaps.

“If I let him go, I might not get to hug him again.” Indy cries.

“What will you do if he recognises you? You are blood-tied to me, so you can’t do anything until we get that taken care of."

“What?!”

I spin around to see Maddie and Blair. The pain is written all over Maddie’s face. Her eyes widen as her bottom lip quivers, and a tear rolls down her cheek.
