Twenty-Three

TOR

My mate was near. I could feel her, a tether between us pulling me close even though I was still here, chained once more. They’d slipped something in my food, drugged me so I was out long enough I could be restrained again. Even now I was sluggish, my eyes not tracking as well as they should.

“Tor? Are you awake? It’s me.”

As if I needed the warning. I’d scented her the second she turned down my hall, and felt her long before that. The core of me was attuned to the heart of her. Her soul was a map I’d been created to read. There was nowhere she could go that I would not follow.

“Tor? Did they do something to you? Why is he chained? Bru, he wasn’t in chains last time. You said he was getting better.”

Her voice was everything I needed. A balm to heal my jagged edges. She pressed her palm up against the glass as I turned my head so I could finally see her. My mate. So beautiful. So perfect. Made for me. And he was keeping her from me.

I yanked on the chains, snarling as I fought to get to her.

“He’s a risk to the staff. They don’t trust him yet. But that’s why you’re here. If our suspicion is right, you will be able to soothe him.”

“How is his being chained going to prove anything to anyone?”

Bru shrugged. “I don’t make the rules, love.”

I growled, low and deep. A warning.

Bruno rolled his eyes and lifted both of his hands. “I mean no offense. It’s a simple endearment, nothing more. Trust me, pretty as she is, I have no interest in your mate, Beast.”

“Mine.”

“Yes, yes. We all understand. Dahlia is yours. And—oof!”

Dahlia cut off whatever he’d been about to say with a sharp jab of her elbow to his gut.

“Was that really necessary?” he wheezed.

“Yes,” she hissed.

“He’s going to find out eventually. Best it happens in the safety of⁠—”

“We’ll deal with that later. Today we have other matters to attend to.”

“Are you sure? Isn’t it better to rip the plaster off now? While he’s chained?”

Dahlia pressed her palm to her chest and stared at me with a need I knew all too well. “You wanted me to help you prove that Tor is in control, that he isn’t some mindless beast. So let me do that. Let me free my mate, and then he and I will deal with private matters in private.”

I let out a rumble of approval. Not so much for the words themselves, but at the thought of being alone with her. Mounting her. Painting her womb with my cum. Leaving my mark inside her.

My cock throbbed at the idea. I needed to fuck my mate.

“Dahlia,” I groaned, desperate for her to speak to me. Not him.

“I’m here, Tor. We’ll get you out of here. I promise.” She glanced from me to Bruno. “Let me go to him. Please? I need to touch him.”

Yes. Gods, yes. I wanted nothing more than for her skin to be on mine.
