Chapter 11 Driven Impulsiveness

• **Jerry’s POV**
• I can’t wait to see her! It has been absolute torture without my gem. I do not know what has come over me. Why am I like this? Blackmailing my sweetheart was not how I planned things. I had been doing so well while preparing to make my move, but—when she held onto her arm, revealing her fated mark after the show, taunting us. Drud acted on his own, and I stupidly followed suit as our emotions became one. Fuck, the contract was to be used as a last resort when all else failed. I should have waited to win her trust! I scolded myself as I was angrily going through my thoughts and mixed emotions. Laura was like my drug, she had been gone from me for far too long and I needed my fix!
• The fated mark was nothing new to us; I was able to keep my angst intact as I had all my servants' eyes on Laura, making sure no stray mongrel approached her. With my status, no werewolf peasant would even dare disobey my order!
