Chapter 441: Ghost Whispers
’Bloodline don’t mix, Emma’
’You and Dace’s relationship is forbidden’
"Emma"
’He’s a beast, Emma!’
"Emma"
’A fucking beast by nature!’
A hand ca and pulled the book down, my eyes found Dace now leaning close, watching . I tried to move my lips but I couldn’t. I moved my head to the side but Owen was gone. I wonder when his eting ended.
Feeling his thumb under my eyelid I flinched as he wiped the lone tear there.
"You detach again" he brought that exact thumb and sucked on it, I hated it as my body reacted to that. I hated the tightening sensation in both my heart and my thighs.
"D-Detach?" I can’t even recognize my voice, I sounded so spineless.
"You have been in that position for hours and you didn’t move or blink"
"I see... the book was just too good," I said with an involuntary smile. He descended his gaze to the book on my lap and I followed.
My lips quivered when I saw it, the holes I dug in them when I gripped too hard, and now the pages were a ss. "I must have gripped too hard, I guess. My vampire strength must be coming back"
"What do you think of Owen Sherman"
The sudden ntion of his na caused
to flinch and I closed my eyes with a jerky sigh.
"Emma"
"Please" I shook my head bringing my eyes to him and I hated how pathetic I sounded. "D-Don’t"
"Don’t what?"
"Don’t dive into that dark place"
"And what will I find when I do?" he smirks.
"This is not a ga Dace!" I snapped pushing off him as I stood to my feet. "Don’t play with a vulnerable person like a ga, feelings are ant to connect and caress not toy with you damn beast!" I beat his chest with every word I speak, the numbness in my body making
ache, the pang in my head, the ringing in my ears.
I gasped when he stopped , forcefully grabbing my hands together and yanking
forward until my body pressed against his.
"Vulnerable?" he growled, he looked angry. "You’re not fucking vulnerable, I play with the strong not weak, and you’re not weak!"
I laughed, out loud, not minding how crazy I sounded. "Then let’s play your gas, but I can’t promise I will stay until the end of it" I yanked his hold away and marched to the door.
"You’re not going anywhere, Emma, never"
"You don’t own , never" I slamd the door shut. Wiping the tears wetting my cheeks, Hating myself for allowing him to see
that way. I can’t deal with his obsession and I don’t want it.
I made a turn to the lobby but that was when a hand grabbed
to a corner and covered my mouth to keep
from screaming.
I was about to nail whoever grabbed against my will right in the balls and take my anger out on them. But I froze when I saw identical green eyes staring at . I pulled down his hand.
"Grayson?"
"Hey there, sis"
"What the fuck are you doing here?" I whisper shout. "You fucking escaped why did you co back?!" My nerves are spiking, I can’t imagine what Dace will do to him when he finds out he sneaked back into the mansion.
"I never left"
"What?" I blinked, staring at him like he had two heads. "What do you an by you never left?"
"It’s a long story. I heard about what Dace did with Luther and you... he’s no longer after the Vampire race because of you?"
I sighed. "It’s a long story"
"You don’t trust him, do you? This is not the sa Dace"
"Of course, I don’t trust him. I hate myself right now, Grayson, because I let the past get to "
"You’re not above the past Emma"

"But I should be, I should be strong, I should have made do with my demons. But here I am right in the middle of it, I’m losing my fucking mind Grayson and now I-"
"Hey hey" he grabbed the back of my head and pulled my forehead to his. I sniffed, closing my eyes and we just stayed in that position, listening to each other’s heartbeat.
"There is no escape from this now, I have to stay here or else Dace will instill his wrath on them"
"I never liked the vampires"
"I know, but you know not all of them are bad, they can’t all be caught in his wrath"
"I know, but please don’t add Luther to the list"
I chuckled faintly.
"What about blood? You’re addicted to Luther’s blood as much as I hate to say that right now"
I shook my head. "Don’t get angry okay?"
"Angry about what?"
I exhaled sharply and looked him in the eye. "I made a deal with Dace"
"A deal?"
"A partnership, he will give his blood and I will stay by his side, trust
it’s just professional"
Is it?
"He wants to ward the council off so that he doesn’t get to marry Isabella, he doesn’t want her"
That sounded weirdly satisfying saying that out loud. I shook my head to get rid of the thoughts.
"I don’t understand, you crave only Luther’s blood"
"That’s the point, Grayson, I don’t think so, I think I might be attracted to Dace’s blood too"
"Is that possible? I an this isn’t how it’s supposed to work, you’re a hybrid and you only crave one type of blood and that is Luther’s because he’s your sire"
"It doesn’t make sense for
too Grayson, trust
I am just as confused as you’re but I tasted his blood and I don’t know, it makes
scared"
"Scared of what?"
"That I might be addicted to it too... just like Luther’s but only worse"
He narrowed his eyes. "Do you think that-"
"No!" I shut him off before he could finish that sentence because I knew it was not possible. Our mate bond is gone, forever, and no matter what it’s not coming back.
"It’s not Grayson, it can’t"
He nods. "I get it, but you really want to be by his side, Emma? He’s obsessed with you and a little insane. The old Dace thinks with his feelings and his head but this Dace doesn’t think with his heart only his head. So I need you to be honest with , Emma, are you such about this?"
