Chapter Bond 206
Chapter 0206 Kaia POV
Whether he meant to give me less sedative or he knew what he was doing, I'm not sure...but Samson had given me enough to make my body numb but not my eyes or brain.
My eyes watch over his shoulder looking behind at the abandoned building that had been their base whilst keeping us captive. Watching as it started to burn down, the flames spreading.
My wolf is strong enough to howl in my mind, howl for the mate that she loved, the mate she still believed in, as he perishes inside.
No one could survive that.
Death can remove a mate mark?
But I didn't want to be marked by anybody else, yes I had fought it from the moment it had happened...but I could feel the bond between Hector and I. I could feel we were fated mates, would I feel that similar bond with another? With Samson?
No.
He says Hector has been controlling me, but he has helped me to train, helped me to protect my pack.... was that the actions of someone that wanted to control me.
Were they the actions of somebody that didn't want the best for me, that didn't love me....
Samson carries me to a car just as another car speeds away...Zederick.
He opens the back passenger door, laying me down on the back seats. Bile entering my mouth as he tucks my hair behind my ear.
"Please, no..."
"I'm sorry Kaia, but like I said...I will help you. You've done it once, you can do it again." That was different, I can't have amnesia a second time around, and even that I don't think would hide the loss of a mate bond.
Something snaps within me as I lay on the back seat and he enters into the front, starting the engine. If this car leaves... Hector dies alone.
Panic rushes through me, turning into adrenaline as the car starts to move. It takes all my will power, all my energy to move, to try and control my muscles. My wolf helping...
But try as I might, I hardly move.
That's when I feel it...a source of energy. It is external but I can feel it within my chest like a pack bond.
I don't know where it has come from and why it has miraculously appeared, but I wasn't going to waste it. I call upon it, no different than I would trying to mind-link someone and to my astonishment... that spec... the small source of energy spreads throughout my body. Letting the blood pump into my fingers and toes, letting my muscles come back to life.
"Kaia." I hear Samson gasp from the driver seat as he turns around to look at me, his face deathly pale.

This was my chance.
With a speed I didn't know I possessed I leant over the central car's console, reaching for the steering wheel and yank it...trying to take control of the car.
Samson slips out of consciousness, the car swerving off the road towards a tree trunk. I brace myself for impact, as soon as the car hits the tree, Samson's body flies forward but the air bag deploys.
I can already feel my source of energy fading so I use what remaining energy I have to climb out of the car and run back towards the burning house.
Black smoke billowed in the air, hungry flames already eating the ground floor windows, preparing to
claim the level above.
Pain hits my heart, I can't lose him.
I can't be without him.
I rip part of my top away and cover my mouth running into the flames through the front door. If I could just get to the door for the dungeon...smokes rises...we will be able to get back out.
I push through the smoke and flames that lick painfully at my skin. The smoke invades my lungs like a thick smog burning now from the inside out. By the time I reach the door, I had already inhaled too much.
I kick the door open, it had already been weakened by the fire, and race down the stairs trying to stop myself from falling down them.
I search the pitch black until the flames from above offer an orange glow.
I find him slumped over in the chair, silver chains still wrapped around him.... the blade still wedged into his chest.
"Hector." I gasp out, what have they done to him.
As soon as my hands touch the silver they burn like the fire above, but I don't stop. I unwrap them over his head, taking great care not to let them touch his skin...my hands were bleeding from the silver but I scars were nothing in comparison. I take the blade from out of his chest, the silver was preventing him from healing...especially with the blade still in his chest.
I wait, wait for his healing to start, wait for him to open his eyes...but nothing.
"Hector." I cup his face, trying to call him back to me.
"Don't leave me, come back to me...." I try to pull him up, move him from the chair but his weight overwhelms me and we both fall to the floor.
I was stronger than this, the sedative was still in my system and whatever adrenaline miracle I had in the car was fading. My body was becoming weak again.
With the little strength I had left, I managed to roll from under him and drag his body by his arms up the flight of steps. The smoke fumes continue to attack my airways and I collapse half way up the stairs unable to pull him any further. +25 BONUS
Chapter 0206
He was pure bulk, it was like trying to move a mountain.
I roll on top of Hector, trying to pull him up with the little strength I had but it was no use.
Panting, I rest my head on his chest, letting my wolf take comfort in his scent for what would be the last time in our lives. I needed to get out, but I couldn't leave him in here.
I can't explain it but I had the overwhelming desire to kiss him, for my lips to touch his.
I lift my head up and move my lips closer to his, letting them touch his in a lasting kiss.
As I kissed him, with the flames spreading above and the smoke now spreading into the dungeon... something inside of me told me to give him my energy that I could do that just as easily as I found it... that I could give it away.
My hand cups the side of his cheek as I deepen the kiss, trying to search for him like I would a pack member through the pack-link.
I don't know how it was possible, maybe because he had marked me, but I found him....and I pushed my power source into him. Letting him take it, letting me give it to him.
I can feel darkness taking me again, that call to sleep too strong. Just as I close my eyes I feel his chest rise high, my body rising with it. I pull my lips away from him, his mouth opening wide as it takes in a deep breath of air. What had just happened.
"Kaia?" I hear him call my name as his eyes open, just as mine close.
