Chapter 16

Ayden took Kalissa’s hand and tugged her toward the French doors. She’d noticed his mood change. He wasn’t happy about something. Stopping before the doors, he turned to her with an intense stare. She suddenly felt like a wall had gone up.

“What’s wrong?”

“When were you going to tell me?”

“Tell you what?”

“Don’t play innocent with me. You were almost taken!”

Kalissa winched at his harsh tone. “It was no big deal. I’m here. Everything worked out.” She crossed her arms. “Who told you?”

“No one.” He looked out the back doors.

“You picked through my head?”

He turned back to her and shook his head. “Not you.”

“That’s an invasion of privacy.”

“I was concerned. When Khloe purposely evaded me, I knew something had happened.” He reached out to her. She shrank back involuntarily. She couldn’t stop herself. He was angry. Old unwarranted fear rose in her.

He looked at her inquisitively. “I wasn’t going to hurt you.”

“I know,” she whispered, taking a step back.

He moved too fast for her to react and wrapped his arms around her. “I would never harm you.” His tone was soft, caring.

She knew that, but the only experience she’d had with men was Liam. That she remembered anyway. When he got angry, he got forceful and demanding. Ayden was being possessive, and he was upset. So she’d reacted out of reflex; the result of a bad relationship that still haunted her to this day.

A light summer breeze flowed across her arms. Ayden guided her outside, shutting the doors behind them. His fingers slid under her chin, and he lifted her face. She peered into his blue eyes and then he pressed his lips to hers in a soft, quick kiss.

“I’m sorry. I should have told you.”

“Shh. No, I’m sorry. Jacen’s telepathic.”

She looked into his eyes. “Yeah, I know.”

Ayden pulled her tighter against him. She wrapped her arms around his waist. “I’ve never seen someone who can’t shut out the voices before. It’s intense.”

“Is it that bad?” She thought back to when Jacen had read her thoughts in The Wheel’s parking lot. It was rude to just pry into one’s head, but if he couldn’t shut out the voices… He hadn’t been inside her head, she realized.

“I don’t know how he deals with it. It’s non-stop, like a constant chatter.” Ayden gave a slight shudder.

It was a wonder that Jacen hadn’t gone insane. “Did you notice that Lydia and Jacen are bond siblings? Do you think Angelica bound them to help with the voices?”

“It’s possible. But I don’t think it’s working with Lydia’s pregnancy.”

Kalissa agreed. Magickin fetuses used a lot of energy to grow and develop. Lydia would be unable to aid her brother in shielding his telepathic ability while she was pregnant.

“Come on. Let’s go inside before we’re missed.” He leaned in and pressed his lips to hers once more.

She moaned and pulled him tightly to her. “Let’s go inside and be missed.”

With a devilish smile, he gave her another quick kiss and then led her back into the cabin.
