Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 551

He ripped the blade out of my lower back and slammed it into my shoulder. I kept my eyes on Rowan’s and my teeth firmly into the meat of my cheek to stop any sounds from escaping.

“Oh ho. Look at you. You think that keeping quiet is going to do you any good?” Garith growled.

Shannon snickered from where Rowan’s aura dropped her. I glanced down and saw that she had turned her face towards me so she could watch everything happening. Her eyes met mine, and she laughed. “You deserve every fucking thing you get today, Amy.” She sneered as she watched blood trail down my legs. “I can’t wait to watch you die. This will be the best mating gift anyone could have ever given me.”

Rowan growled, and it shook my bones. He turned to face Shannon. “The only reason I am not ripping your legs from your body is because I promised Amy that she would get to kill you.” He dropped to a crouch. “But mark my words. If she dies…then everyone here will become a resident of my torture chamber. And I will spend the rest of my life making sure you are as broken as I am.” He grabbed her face. “Death would be too easy. I will do unspeakable things to you. I will use your own mind against you. I will make sure your mind shatters so fucking completely that you will wish that you were dead.” Shannon trembled, and then the smell of urine reached everyone’s nostrils. My mate dropped her face, disgusted. Then he stood and looked at Garith, the threat clear in his eyes.

Garith just smiled. “You wouldn’t do any of that. You are too good.” He laughed, but my mate just smiled as all pretense fell away from his face. I think that in that moment Garith realized Rowan wasn’t joking, because even though he tried to hide it, I smelt a whiff of fear.

Rowan turned to look at me, and I could feel that he was about to snap. If I made a noise, he would lose the tiny bit of sanity he had left. So I mouthed the words I love you to him. I watched him shudder as the meaning hit him. His eyes bored into mine, and I blew him a kiss. I wasn’t afraid to die; I was afraid that this would break my mate. I pressed one of my hands against the bubble and waited until his hand met mine on the other side. His gaze trailed all over my face, as if he were memorizing it. I mouthed one more word to him. One thing that meant the world to me. Carly. He nodded.
