Chapter 224
Yorick
My hands clench into fists. You've got to be fucking kidding me. This tool? This is the man who thinks he's going
to take what's mine?
"| told you! was going to cvisit you, Cyra. Imagine my surprise when you weren't home. | figured you were
out. But you were so adamant when we talked about how busy you've been with your studies that | assumed
you'd be back any minute. So, | waited." He glanced at her, but obviously realizing that we've been together all
night, his eyes returned to me.
"We got caught in the rain," she says.
"Right," he says, his tone indicating his disbelief.
Cyra turns and looks at me, her eyes pleading withnot to start anything.
"I need to shower," | tell her, walking past her.
The tool steps in my way. "I'm Alpha Stellan."
"Yeah, | heard. I'm Alpha Yorick," | say, stepping around him and walking to the showers.
"I'm Cyra's betrothed," he calls out, and | spin around, Thad pushing forward. Before | can take a step, Cyra is
between us, her hand on my chest.
"I'm her fated mate. So if you want you to go, Stellan, let's have a go," | snarl. "Yorick, go shower," she says
softly.
| glare at the man, while Thad thrashes around in my head trying to get to him. He just smirks atlike he's
already won. Shit, I'll get my family to attack his pack just because he thinks he can take what's mine. And then
I'll wipe that smug grin off his face.
"Yorick, please," she says. | pull my eyes away from him and look at her.
'Please,' she mouths.
| tear myself away and go into my room, getting my clothes before stomping down the hallway to the showers.
"Here Stellan, cinto my room. | need to shower too," | hear Cyta say.
"What the fuck is with all the flowers, Cyra?" he asks when she opens her door. Good, let him see that one of us
knows how to take care of her.
| don't wait to hear her response as | push through the doors to the bathroom and go to the shower stalls.
strip off my clothes and stand under the water. | close my eyes and punch the wall, leaving a hold in it.
'We should kill him now. He cannot have our mate,’ Thad snarls in my head.
'No, he can't,’ | snarl back, just as | feel her hand on my back.
| spin, pressing her against the opposite wall of the small shower, my hand around her throat.
"Cyra, I'm warning you now, if he touches any part of your body with any part of his, | swear to the Moon
Goddess that he will not make it off this campus alive. | don't care what hellfire comes raining down on me, | will
not be able to hold Thad back," | growl.

"You know | was never with any other man before you, Yorick," she says. | can see the pain in her eyes. She
doesn't want him here any more than | do.
| slide my hand down her shoulder and press my forehead to hers.

"I didn't know he'd be here. He mentioned it before I left, but he never confirmed
that he was coming,” she whispers, and | can hear the tear in her vold
| pull her against me. "If he tells you he wants out of this agreement, you say yes.
Whatever happens, I'll get my family involved, | say
She shakes her head, but | hold her against me.
"Yes, Cyra. | will call my family to war if that's what it takes."
"You can't, Yorick..."
"lI can and | will. He may lead a powerful pack, Cyra, but so do my brother and my brother-in-law."
"Yorick..."
| press my finger to her lips. "If he wants out, say yes. We'll deal with anything
else that happens."
She nods. "I need to get back."
| spin her around and push her under the water. She's started to shiver and | know
it's not from the cold. | grab the shampoo that's in her bag and begin to wash her hair.
"Cseeas soon as he's gone. He's not planning to stay is he?" rask, looking at her.
"I doubt it. It was impossible not to smell your scent in my room, Yorick."
"Will he hurt you?" | ask her.
"No. He would never lay a hand on me."
"Okay. If at any tyou feel unsafe, you get to me. | can't go to my room. | can't risk hearing the two of you in
your room while Thad is like this. But I'll be outside. If he does anything..."
"I'll be fine, Yorick."
She finishes bathing and leaves. | don't want to, but I let her go.
| stand under the water for a few moments longer before washing off the sweat, grass, and dirt of the night.
Then | dry off, get dressed, and walk back to my room, quickly dropping off my things before making my way
outside. As | pass her door, | hear voices murmuring on the other side, but | don't stay to hear what's being said.
| go sit outside, putting my head in my hands and doing everything | can to keep Thad from breaking through
and ripping Stellan apart.
| have no idea how long | sit there when | hear the door behindopen. It's not the first tas sof the
folks who weren't out partying all night are up and moving around. But for the most part, the Academy is quiet.
So, | turn and my entire body goes rigid when | see Stellan walking out.
He walks to the top of the stairs where I'm sitting. He doesn't look at me, he looks out as if assessing the
Academy grounds.
“I get it. | do. | understand your desire to be with your fated mate,” he says.
"You couldn't possibly," | growl.
He turns and looks at me. "Why do you think | agreed to let Cyra chere for a year. | have my own fated mate
back home...out Cyra, I'm free to do what | want, just as she is free to do what she wants while she's here."
"Then why not end this alliance bond? Take your fated mate as your Luna and be done with this?" | ask him.
He stares atfor a moment and then a wicked smile spreads across her face.
"She hasn't told you," he says and begins laughing. "Oh, that's rich." 09:47 Sat, 2 Aug G

He continues to laugh and | stand, snarling at him. "What's so funny?"
He looks at me, shaking his head.
"I'm not ending the alliance bond. But,
I'l do this for you. Once | have my
heir, you can have fi Voge? what
ybu am (et what | want, and we're
all happy. Granted, if she gives me

He shrugs as if it's not his problem. "She can stay for the pup or leave for you. It'll
be her choice. | have no intention of being true to her once i have my heir. She'd
be smart to go to you. But again, that's her decision."
"You're a fucking piece of work, you know that?" | growl.
He turns and givesan arrogant, snide smile. "I'm the piece of work that's going to fuck your mate until | have
what | want..."

| don't realize that we're surrounded until Zach, Landon, and Chase are pulling
in front of me, grabbing my face and pulling my gaze to hers.
"Stop, Yorick! Stop this now! You're going to start a war."
"I don't fucking care," | snarl.
"But | do. If that means anything to you, then stop this right now."
| watch as Stellan stands, blood dripping from his broken nose, his busted lip, and
several other cuts on his face.
"You can hate me, but it doesn't change anything," he says, before turning and walking away.
| jerk out of my friends' holds, watching him walk away.
"Yorick, cwith me," Cyra says softly.
| turn my glare on her. "What don't | know, Cyra? He said you haven't told me
something. That | don't know something. So, what the fuck don't | know?"
