Chapter 43: Destiny

SELENE POV

“Spare him and I am yours,” I said unwaveringly, as I looked up at Damion who was a hairsbreadth away from murdering Tor.

Tor’s face had crumpled into despair when he saw me.

“Selene,” he said with pure heartbreaking misery. “Don’t you f*cking dare.”

The battle around us had died off as everyone had stopped fighting to watch with bated breath what would happen next. I saw Cassius from the corner of my eye, watching and waiting to make a move.

Damion’s cruel laugh echoed off of the walls of the compound.

“Isn’t this just a treat?” Damion’s voice filled with mock delight. “And why shouldn’t I just kill them all right now?” he asked with a sneer, his hand flexing on the lever of the crossbow.

I narrowed my eyes at him.

“Because like he said,” I started, gesturing to Tor, “there are hundreds more wolves outside ready to rip your guts out. So either we all die, or you get to live and you get me.”
