Chapter 43
Ace POV
I drove all night for Avery to turn around and say no. I thought she would be happy it was the most
selfless thing I could do. I was letting her go, letting her be free of me and all the pain I have caused
her. Yet Avery turned me down refusing to remove the mate bond, yet she took Lucy’s mark when I
marked her. I hoped to plead with Aamon but he wasn’t home, hoping he could convince her. She
removed the bond for Lucy But now won’t take the bond for me, saying it was for Lucy to decide.
Decide what? She fucking hates me and I know the only reason she hasn’t rejected me is because of
her fear of upsetting Tyson.
Her being mated to me was not only making her miserable but my brother. Walking out of Avery’s
house I get back in my car. This was fucking bullshit. She doesn't want me so I don’t see the issue with
Avery snapping her fingers and relieving us both of the bond. She was not only punishing Lucy but
Tyson by leaving her tied to me.
“Ace?” Avery says chasing after me as I slam my car door shut.
“Bloody Hybrids, Aamon, where are you?” I heard her say just before I started my car. I tear out of
the driveway before racing down the street toward the highway. Atticus wasn’t even talking to me,
convinced I fucked everything up and he was right. I fuck everything up, anything I touch becomes
ruined.
I refuse to be the reason they both suffer, refuse to be the one that ruins their lives. I didn’t deserve her
and now realising that, it just made my mind up completely.
Driving along the highway leaving Avalon City, I know there is a bend with a sheer drop. Avery
wouldn’t save Lucy from the bond, I will save her myself. I floor it, pressing the pedal all the way to the
floor listening to my car rev all the way out as it picks up speed for the sharp bend. I unclip my seatbelt
just as I smash through the barrier and the car is suddenly falling. It smacks the side of the cliff and tips
and I am suddenly looking up the cliff as it starts somersaulting when burnt almonds invade my senses.
Great I am going to hell, I think knowing that usually means a demon is near, demons come from hell
and I am sure that is where the Moon Goddess will send me for hurting Lucy. I see the ground coming
toward me at an alarming speed and close my eyes bracing for impact when I feel a hand touch me.
“Fucking idiot” I hear Aamon yell at me before feeling a whoosh motion and a vacuum like suction
rush over me and my eyes open to see Aamon standing in front of me while I am sitting on the hard
ground near the busted barrier. I touch myself shocked that I am alive before then hearing a loud boom
of an explosion and a billow of smoke and flames appears filling the sky behind where Aamon was
standing.
“I didn’t believe you would be so stupid, do you have any idea how fucking stupid that was. You
could have died” Aamon snapped at me, it was the first time I had seen him angry at me.
“That was kind of the fucking point” I growl at him getting to my feet only for him to shove me on
the ground, I growl at him before feeling his fist connect with side of my face and my head whips tothe
side, black dots dance in fornt of my vision and I shake my head to clear it before glaring at him.
“How fucking dare you, do you have any idea how many people that would have destroyed, your
brothers, your mother, what about Lucy?” Aamon screams at me.
“They would be better off without me, Lucy doesn’t want me.
I am just stopping her and Tyson from being together” I tell him.
“Is that what you think, how do you think Lucy would feel knowing she was the reason you killed
yourself, how would Tyson feel knowing his twin fucking killed himself, you think you are saving them?
You nearly just fucking ruined them Ace. Lucy loves you, your family loves you and you doing stupid
shit like this will only cause them pain while ending yours” Aamon says.
“Avery wouldn’t take the bond this is the only way to free her from me” I yell at him, how does he
not see that?
“Yes because Avery can see the bond is worth fucking saving you idiot, if she wouldn’t take it from
you its because she saw something worth keeping, not because she is punishing you Ace” I think over
his words yet I saw no way to fix this. Lucy hates me and it would only be a matter of time before Tyson
does too.
“Get up, get home and fix it, stop being a coward and for once in your god damn life fucking fight
for something, instead of letting Tyson deal with everything for you” Aamon says before reaching down
and grabbing the front of my shirt and jerking me to my feet.
“You ever do something like that again, I will burn your ass in hell for all eternity” Aamon says
before gripping my arms. I feel the suction feeling of him misting as I am pulled through space before
appearing out the front of my packhouse. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Get inside to your mate” Aamon orders and I look around. I could already feel the bond pulling me
toward her knowing she is just inside the house. Atticus claws in my head to be near her.
I look at Aamon and nod suddenly realizing how stupid trying to kill myself was. I stopped realizing
I now had to explain what happened to my car.
“You aren’t going to tell them are you?”
“No, as long as you get your ass inside and promise never to do anything like that again” Aamon
says and I nod I turn looking back at the darkened house before turning back to Aamon only now he is
gone. I sigh heading inside and hoping the front door was still unlocked. Thankfully it is.
