“You want me to shut up? Then talk to me and don’t keep silent”
His eyes cut through me, sharp enough to make my breath stick in my throat, and then he said it, calm but deadly. “You know what, kitten. I have one question for you before I answer all of yours. Why did your body react to my brother?”
I froze. I actually forgot how to breathe for a second. My brain went completely blank and then exploded all at once.
“What!” I squeaked, but it came out so high it sounded ridiculous even to my own ears. My whole chest squeezed, my heart slammed against my ribs, and my face burned so hot I thought it might melt right off. Did he just-did he seriously just say that? In that tone? With that look on his face?
And then he pushed further, his growl curling around me like chains. “Don’t you dare lie to me, kitten. I am your Alpha. Don’t forget that. We share a bond. I feel everything you feel, whether you want me to or not. So tell me the truth. Do you want to fuck my brother just because he looks like me?”
“What!” I screamed, louder this time, almost choking on my own spit. “Oh my God, Damon, are you even hearing yourself? That is the most disgusting, twisted question you could have possibly asked me right now!
“That is your brother. Your actual twin brother! Do you think I am some kind of monster? Do you think I am sitting here fantasizing about sleeping with him just because he has your face?”
My words tumbled out of me so fast I could barely keep up with them, and my thoughts were just as loud, screaming over each other in my head.
Why would he even think that? Why would he even say it out loud? Of course my body reacted, because Daren looks exactly like him, because my instincts got confused, because my wolf could not tell the difference for a split second.
“It didn’t mean anything, it didn’t mean I wanted it, it didn’t mean I enjoyed it, but how could I explain that to Damon without sounding guilty?
And still, in the back of my head, my thoughts were screaming louder than my mouth. What if he doesn’t believe me? What if he already decided I’m guilty? What if he thinks I secretly want his brother and nothing I say will change his mind? What if this ruins everything?
“Kitten,” he said, his voice low and dangerous, the kind of voice that made the air itself freeze. “If you dare have anything with my brother, I’ll kill you with my own hands. Do you understand me? I would not let another man touch what is mine. Not even if that man shares my face. Especially not him. I would rip you apart before I let you belong to anyone else. Even him.”
I couldn’t breathe. Kill me. He had said kill me. Not just anyone – Damon. My Damon. My Alpha. My mate. And now that same man was looking me dead in the eyes and promising he would take me apart with his own hands if I ever betrayed him with his brother.
He didn’t actually mean that. He couldn’t. Right?
