Chapter 228 Bitch

• With every second that passed, I could feel everything sweet and good between us slowly start to ebb away. My breathing came out ragged and every ounce of the man I’ve become came rushing back in. Common sense. That’s what it was. Realization about how weak I’d been in such a short time washed over me. I’d spent years building the wall that would keep Adealine out and with just a few words it started to crumble. I cracked my neck and mentally started building that wall again.
• The Alpha’s scent itched at my brain, clawed at my insides, and after tonight, I’d track him down. This was a small human town. I’d find him and when I did, I’d enjoy making him regret ever coming near her. It didn’t help that she was always around men at night, at her day job, but now I knew they made their way into her home, and I was no different.
• Adealine turned around, but I was too blinded by the rage that was brewing. There were already two men on my list—one a mystery, the other, security. It wasn’t even the bartender, I’d looked into him when I saw her talking to him. No, this scent, this one was new. And he’d been in her apartment, the same one she wanted to take me into. Did she honestly expect me to join her in her room? In her bed? The same one she’d had him in? I’ve known her for lifetimes and even though I know she couldn’t remember me, she should still fucking know me.
