The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 15

Sadia walked to me as the crowd disbursed. "Your face is bruised; you're going to have to figure out how you're going to explain that to your parents." We started walking down the hall. "You're an idiot." She said as we walked into one of the rooms.

Aqua was talking with the future beta of the pack. He was best friends with Ruben, so it was clear to me he didn't like me. I didn't mind Aqua being with whoever she wanted since I was with who I wanted. I just didn't trust anyone close to Ruben. Even though I didn't care the mate bond was causing me to feel a little jealous. I wouldn't stop her from being with anyone though. Sadia kindly allowed us to stay for a little longer, so we headed to a room to spar. "I'm glad you roughed Ruben up a bit Lexus." One of the guys said.

"He deserved it, the guys always been a jerk." Another said. "He's nothing like our alpha." He looked towards the girls. "No offense but why are you suddenly interested in Sadia? I know you guys were kind of friends, but it never seemed like you liked her."

I blew out smoke from my hit. "You're not supposed to notice." I shrugged. I passed the blunt to the next guy in the rotation. "I know you guys don't really like her, but she doesn't deserve that. She's a cool person."

"What about the other girl? She's the one who could hold the abilities right? She's Cade's sister?"

I nodded. "I barely know her." I didn't feel like I barely knew her, but I did. I wanted to know more about her but it's not that simple. It was clear she didn't know what she really wanted from me. "She is Cade's sister, and she does have the abilities as far as I can tell." I liked talking about Aqua but she was still so far out of my reach.

We sparred for a while until Cade came then we took a break. "New work schedule since I'm not assisting Lexus throughout the week anymore. What did I miss?" One of the guys told him about the fight. "Congratulations Lexus, you're now the biggest asshole," he joked. "You came into Rubens own pack house and beat the dude up."

I couldn't stop looking at Aqua. "I couldn't let him talk about Sadia the way he did." Aqua was all that was on my mind, but I had to forget about that. She wasn't interested so I needed to stop trying. All I had to do was wait till the next full moon then we'll be free of the mate bond.

When we got back to the castle Aqua went to her room and I went to mine with Sadia. "I think our problem with Ruben is out of my control. I can't do what he's asking so I can't do anything about what happens next." I sat down on my bed and took off my shirt.
