12: Rain

SUNSHINE:

My chest kept breaking apart.

Alfonso looked like a candle losing its fire.

I could not blame him really for being an asshole. He was also influenced by how his brothers treated me. And the worst part of all? I allowed them back then. I did not fight them. All I did was stay silent.

Which was not supposed to be. By staying silent, I was giving my bullies the power to inflict pain.

'Knight-in-shining armor, huh? In your dreams. I just did not want the servants to report that we are ganging up on you. Father has his eyes and ears.'

'Fuck you, Knoxx,' I spat on his mind, feeding him all my hatred towards our bond. 'I hate you.'

'More than you hated your ex-mate?' he asked.

'Why do you have to keep hurting me?'

'It will be my goal to return how your mother hurt us through you.'

'I hope your wolf will give you a little spanking and defend me!' I hissed.

'My wolf already did. If I don't help you, he will nag until I can no longer fathom it,' Knoxx answered through our link.
