Chapter 215
THEON
Before I could react further, lightning struck in my head and I closed my eyes, slightly groaning in pain.
“Baby, what’s wrong?” Chelsea asked, lightly touching my arm. Somehow her touch made my skin crawl but I restrained myself from jerking away.
“Nothing. Just a headache.” I smiled at her. “Excuse me, Darling have to go to the bathroom.” I said to her.
When my eyes landed on Ryn again, I found her standing alone, watching me, and by the gods, I felt the urge to cross the room towards her.
What will I do if I get to her?
Will I strangle her like the poisoned part of me wants to? Or will fall to my knees and worship at her feet?
“Mate.”
Why does my wolf keep saying that? Ryn can’t be mine when I’ve already met Elizabeth.
“Honey?” Chelsea’s voice came up behind me. “I hope you remember that Ryn is bad news.”
“Yea, sure.” I replied, tearing my gaze from Ryn and forcing my limbs to walk away.
By the time, I arrived at the bathroom, I was feverishly hot on the inside.
I checked all the bathroom stalls and when I made sure no one was there, I locked the main door and loosened my bow tie. Breathing hard, I washed my face before planting my hands on the marble bathroom counter.
Then, I stared into my own eyes.
I should hate her. Ryn. That’s…that’s what this voice at the back of my mind is saying. That’s the urge I have – to hate her, because… she wants to steal me from the love of my life.
Right?
A flash of Ryn licking my earlobe during training occured.
Fuck. I squeezed my eyes shut.
Ryn is a seductress sent to take me from the love of my
life.
Who is the love of my life again?
“Mate.” My wolf pined weakly and brought back memories of us at the Lycantide High, biting her lip, watching her sleep, watching her train, watching her eat and then watching her strut into the hall in that elegant dress.
Pines and needles raged inside my skull making me grip my head in pain. When I looked back up at my reflection, I found blood trickling down my nose. So I quickly got some toilet paper and cleaned it off.

I know what this is. My wolf is used to her due to the effects of the Moonstone. There’s no way Ryn is my mate. Second chances don’t exist. My wolf is confused because it’s been drugged. That’s..that’s the narrative I’m going with.
“Then why do we still feel attracted to her?” My wolf impressed upon my mind. “The Moonstone is gone. This. is real.”
My mind became a storm of questions. “If Ryn was my mate, then why haven’t I felt sparks with her and heard her unique

scent?”
My wolf stayed silent giving me a winning edge. I sighed, feeling someliwat relieved.
Ryn is not my mate. My wolf is just confused.
With that thought, I checked my nose one last time, before reknoting my bow tie and leaving the bathroom.
“Do you also believe Ryn to be our enemy?”
I paused, as I entered the hall and like iron to a magnet, my eyes found her in the midst of the crowd. It was dancing time and I caught her looking down at another man who was kissing her hand. novelbin
There was something about the way she looked down at him, like she was a half–amused goddess whom a peasant has begged for a dance.
Even her smile of approval was smug and why for fuck’s sake does that turn me on.
They seemed to be in a discussion and as I wondered what the actual fuck they could possibly be talking about, I really Ryn couldn’t dance and the man was patiently teaching her.
‘I should go break them up.‘ I thought to myself as I waded through the crowd towards them.
I have no interest in Ryn. I just… I just…I have a responsibility to make sure my students practice safety and Ryn dancing with a complete stranger who has his gnarly hands on her fucking waist?!…. Is not safe.
Just a few feet
away
and Chelsea blocked my way.
My eyes cut to her and my anger suddenly tempered. I blinked wondering why I was so keen on Ryn when I have such a pretty wife.
“Ask me to dance.” She extended her hand to me and I took it. Then we were on the dancefloor, dancing moderately slow to a song. Chelsea clung to me as we danced while my eyes searched the dancefloor for her.
To my annoyance, Ryn was still engrossed in her conversation with the man, then the music picked up and he started spinning her around.
Ryn spun with grace, her smile radiant, and as she turned around and around, her eyes found me that mate or not, enemy or not, this seductive little goddess already has my heart.
and that’s when I knew
