She looks away so I turn her face back toward me. “You can’t keep everything to yourself. Some things, yes, but not everything and having me read your mind is not the same as you sharing what’s frustrating you.” “I’m not weak anymore.” she scowls”I never said you were.””The lack of knowing what Cooper wants, makes me feel like I am. He’s part Lycan which means I should be able to order him or at least link him. But it’s like he doesn’t even exist.””That will be his Witch half.””But still, it’s present, right? His Lycan?” She frowns “I would guess that it has something to do with how prominent his Witch genetics are. If he has lived his life as a Witch then I’m guessing it would be stronger than his Lycan half. He might not have even shifted.”Her brow knits together. “Every possible scenario that I come up with just doesn’t seem or feel right. It’s not like Salem when he was one step ahead and it’s not like Blair when she would taunt us from afar. This guy had only hurt Maddie and taken Klaus and convinced a few Wolves to rebel against the pack. But that’s all. If it had been you, you wouldn’t have wasted time like this. He would already be dead and if he had a pack, they would be too.””You’re right. I wouldn’t have waited, but we are not just dealing with Wolves or even Lycans. He is part Witch? They are a whole different ball game. Not all of them are like Madame Curie and she wasn’t exactly squeaky clean.””I guess.” She shakes her head at me. “I’m just over it.”I cock a brow at her, “You are over it?”She nods at me. “I want it dealt with. I want him gone. I want Samara gone. I want to live in peace. I want to raise my boys and not have to worry that someone is going to come for them.””Okay, I will link Klaus and tell him to let Cooper know we are ready to trade.”‘She didn’t mention Blair.’ Aero mutters
Ads by PubFuture ‘No she didn’t.’ I confirm, though I wasn’t planning on bringing her up right now.Neah leans forward, resting her chest on mine. “Thank you.”I search for the link to Klaus. ‘Good time?’ I ask, knowing there were limited times he could talk.’Yes.’ He replies, though he sounds a little off’Are you okay?”Tired.’ He mutters back through the link. ‘He’s watching me more.”Anything?”No. He has spent the day trying to convince me I’m his mate.’ He sounds absolutely disgusted’It doesn’t matter now. I need you to tell him we want to offer a trade.”Dane, I need more time.”I’m sorry, but I can’t give you any more time. We need this dealt with. Neah is right, this has gone on far longer than it needs too. Tell him that he needs to be at my gates with you by six tomorrow morning.’ ‘He will refuse.”In that case, tell him his sister will be killed. And there will be no hesitation.’Klaus pauses and I glance down at Neah. Her eyes are closed and her lips have parted as her breaths settle into a steady rhythm.’I will tell him.’I cut the link and don’t move. Letting Neah have some peace. I place my nose against her hair, taking in her lavender scent. It was a scent that calmed my own mind and one that I will never get tired of smelling. Her body grows heavy, moulding itself into mine as she slips deeper into sleep. I close my own eyes when Klaus links me.
