Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 543

Garith just turned back to Rowan. “Now…what are we going to do with you?”

Verity smirked as she slid into Rowan’s lap. “There now…doesn’t that feel better? You could have had me, you know…if you had just played ball, we could have kept you alive.” She patted his cheek, ignoring his growl. “You are so big and strong, aren’t ya?” She laughed as she stood and then swung.

Her slap echoed throughout the makeshift room. “Verity, that’s enough.”

“Actually, I don’t think it is. You don’t know what he fucking did to me. How fucking embarrassing it’s been.” She slapped Rowan again. Both of my wolves started to growl, low and menacing.

You two are making it hard to keep my composure. I can manage the magic for a minute. Go see your mate and calm down. I sent them both to Rowan. They needed to see Erubus was fine, and I needed a minute to collect my fraying nerves so that when they escalated, as I knew the father and daughter pair would, I wouldn’t blow our cover.

Lynn laughed, causing Verity to whirl. “What’s so funny?” She screamed into the gamma’s face.

“You are.” Lynn laughed louder. “Just look at you. You are just like Shannon.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to look at Lynn. Verity took a step closer and grabbed Lynn’s face. “What did you say?”

Lynn smirked. “I said you are just like Shannon.” I watched her eyes dart towards the girl on the ground at Brandon’s feet.

Verity squeezed her face. “What do you mean by that?”

Lynn’s eyes darted between the two women. “Look at her. She is frozen at Brandon’s feet, begging him to notice her. Chasing after a mate that isn’t hers.”

“What does that have to do with me?” Verity bared her teeth as she leaned closer to Lynn.

Lynn snorted. “You can play dumb all you want, but it doesn’t change the fact that you are the same. You might not be begging on the ground for Rowan to notice you, and you might have more power than Shannon does. But you are still chasing after a mate that isn’t yours.”

Verity scoffed. “It was all a part of the plan we had in place.”

Lynn puffed out a breath. “And when you say it like that, I could almost believe you. But I was close enough to see how hurt you got when you saw the king’s mate mark. When you realized he was too far out of your reach now.”

“Shut up.”
