Chapter One Hundred and Forty Five

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY FIVE

Damien is calm, calmer than I anticipated.

“Send in the first line of defense. You lead the second squadron. I’ll lead the first.”

Seth shakes his head, “That won’t be enough. They’re armed with different weapons. Something is off.”

Damien is silent and then, “You stay here.”

He’s looking at me.

I exchange a look with Fera who nods, “I think that’s a good idea.”

“I don’t,” I say, firmly.

“Isabel-”

I meet Damien’s gaze, squarely, “We both know that there is a likelihood of there being a spy in the castle.”

Damien’s jaw tenses, “Fine. But you stick next to me. Get her a suit of armor!”

“Armor?” I gape at him. “I’m a wolf shifter. My best defense is my wolf!”

Damien steps towards me till he’s in my face and growling, “Can you ever just obediently do what I tell you to?!”

“If you’re looking for obedience, get a damn puppy!”

How is this infuriating man supposed to be my mate?!
