Broken Bonds (The Bonds that Tie Book 1)

I can live with being hated. I hate myself enough to know just how easy it is to loathe me

How the fuck do we tell North about this? I don’t even know what to call it,” Gryphon mutters to Nox, his eyes flicking over his shoulder to me, and I take a deep breath.

but my bond finally calms the fuck down a little once my back is pressed against Gabe’s chest.

My body moves without thought, stalking over to Gabe as if an invisible force is shoving us together, and I plant myself in-between my two Bonds.

Very slowly, as if he’s cautious not to spook me, Nox’s hand slips away from Gabe.

every fiber of my being is honed in on where Nox is holding Gabe’s arm and berating him.

I don’t like that.

“Nox… let him go,” Gryphon says

My gift explodes out of me.

I can’t stop it or contain it,

Nox, ignoring Gabe’s groans of pain, snaps, “Don’t think we’ve forgotten about your idiot decisions either, Ardern. What the fuck were you thinking? You would’ve been more useful to us if you’d stayed behind and kept Bassinger muzzled. Fucking useless.”

I pull away from Gabe, my gift is still a little too excited about being let out to play and I can’t have him touching me right now. He frowns at me, but then follows my eyes down to my fingers and gulps when he sees the fine tremble in them

Gryphon moves to stand in front of me immediately, blocking me from the view of his entire team and the others who were rescued. Gabe grabs my hand and yanks me into his body as though he’s worried I’m about to be attacked by our own people
