Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER THIRTEEN
CAHIR’s POV. The very moment she stepped into the barracks, I knew she was the one. The daughter of the treacherous MacAlister who almost put the whole country into turmoil and danger, she had guts, she didn’t have a filter over her mouth and mumbled whatever she wanted and that red hair of hers would make her prone to the enemy's attack. But then despite the instant hate I developed for her the moment I saw her, I had to marry her, she had to become my wed bride and I am still very much upset about it. I didn’t spend years and years of my life cultivating immense power to get wed to someone who can’t even use a sword. The more I think about it, the more upset I become. I remember that night when ivar, my dragon, spoke to me about her and I almost went berserk. “You must be joking” I tell him, “and you know it” “Well, we both know you have to do it” he snickers, “take her as your bride and build her through the journey. General, you clearly do not have a choice now, do you?”

ADELE’s POV. After he leaves, I just can’t get the thought of the kiss out of my head. He hates me, I didn’t expect him to kiss me and even smirk about it. That man is more sly than I actually thought, he actually kissed and looked like he enjoyed it. “Pathetic” I mutter under my breath, His reputation is just bad overall. I look out of the window hoping to catch a glimpse of whatever Is happening outside but nothing. It feels like he purposely chose this room for me so I won’t be able to see anything. The door creaks open and a man saunters in followed by one of the soldiers. “He is here to check on your wounds” she says before making her way out. I think I remember this man, he looks vaguely familiar but I can’t fathom where I have seen him. Could be back in Drakesworth. “Macalister” he calls out and the frown on my face intensifies, how did he know?” “How do you know my name?” I manage to ask him, walking back to the amazingly soft bed, “I have a feeling that I have se

ADELE’s POV. Cahir doesn’t even let me say anything and pulls me away from the battlefield. Bastian tries to stop him but he on the other hand is wounded so there is only little he can do before Cahir drags me off. He didn’t stop until we get to the front of his fort and that’s where I manage to snap my hand out of his. “What do you think you are doing?” I ask him. “Who told you that you could come out of the fort?” “Its none of your business, general” I snap and he clenches his jaw together. “You can’t just tell me to do something and I will do it, I am not your slave” “As long as you are married to me, you will do as I have said” hr half yells, “do you understand that” “And on what basis are you calling me your wife?” A slight pain from my shoulder makes me wince in frustration. “You can not call me your wife when we do not have any relationship, general. You never gave me a reason why you got married to me in the first place. I did not come here for you, I came h

ADELE. It has been one hell of a hectic day but luckily the Chimeras and their hosts were destroyed and just a few of our people were injured. Most of them were taken to the infirmary while the rest were asked to retire back to their hostel for some rest. Everything else for today has been cancelled but that doesn't mean I can’t ask questions. That’s why after leaving Bastain at the infirmary, I make my way towards the tent the general has confronted me with before. I saw him going there with his sister and some of the supervisors. Despite the intensity of the fight, none of them looked hurt. How I wish I am able to wield such powers as them but yet again, my shoulders still hurt. Just as I get close to the tent, I stop myself just before I can go further. “You can not go in” one of them tells me, “the general gave strict orders” “I need to see him” “And on what basis do you think you can see him?” He inquires again, loath evident from his voice. “Come in” I hear someone

CAHIR’s POV. Standing on top of the armory, my gaze is on the frail Adele training so hard In the courtyard. It is already past bedtime but she is the stubborn one, still training despite everything that has happened. Four days ago, I arrested Bastian because of her and she actually had the guts to come and meet me, demanding to have him released. She has got guts, I must say. “You are still here?” A voice asks behind me and I turn to see Xena walking towards me, her gaze on Adele, “it seems you can not leave your wife alone even for a moment, general” “Why? Are you waiting for me to leave so you can end her?” I ask and she chuckles lightly. “Killing her is much more easier than eating, Cahir and you know that” “You know you wouldn’t dare” “Why are you so hellbent on protecting her though?” She asked me after a while, “you haven’t told me the overall truth as to why you decided to marry someone who can’t even wield a sword? You are not one to do something without gettin

ADELE’s POV. As soon as his hand wraps around my waist, I feel a kind of sensation surge through my body. It feels exactly the same when Bastain is close to me. Why exactly is my body feeling that way? I shouldn’t be feeling that way, right ? I shouldn’t even be bothered by him. He says he wants to teach me, I should focus on that and learn. “Clear your mind” he whispers into my ear again and I swallow hard.His hand is gripping mine a little tightly as we both navigate the sword through the air. “Become one with your sword and no one will be able to defeat you..” we continue to swing and roll, making use of all the available space. “This is called the combination and sequence” he says into my ear again. Slowly his hand slides down to my hips and I hitch, halting in the process. “Can you teach me without touching me?” I ask him, my chest rising and falling in quick succession. I know it sounds absurd but I do not like the way his body is reacting to him. It’s like there is a

BASTIAN’s POV. Seeing her walk away, I let out a heavy sigh. I didn’t expect her to react that way but I have known for the longest time that she has feelings for me. Adeline doesn’t bother to hide the way she drools over me so why didn’t she accept me? It can only be one thing, because of Cahir. I am going to make sure I keep her safe from a maniac like him, I will protect her from him no matter what. Looking back at her retreating figure, I can’t help but smile. Adeline, as I fondly call her, is the most hardworking girl I know, she makes sure nothing stops her right from when we were kids and up till now, she still has that spirit. I hear a rustling sound behind me and I turn around to see Xena perching on a branch of a tree, her attention on me and she looks amused. “Shouldn’t you be in the dining room, cadet?” She asks me, jumping down from the tree. “Are you following me?” She scoffs, pulling her hair into a messy bun, “I can get you punished for ditching your meal bu

ADELE’s POV. Groaning lightly, I gently slump on the bed and close my eyes. My shoulder got injured again and I had to get a cast on it. I didn’t go back to the training hall again because the supervisor told me to get some rest. Now here I am lying down on my bed in the fort with my aching shoulders and my mind wandering around. I am still pissed at Bastian for hiding things from me but I can’t totally blame him. I also hid the fact that I was married to Cahir from him too but even though he is hiding way too many things than I can even imagine. How did he know what James’s rune was for? I have seen his body and I haven’t seen any rune on him before. My thoughts are interrupted when a knock resonates on my door and a female soldier saunters in. “Someone is here to see you, she is waiting by the gate” “Okay” I jump out of bed and grab a tacky shirt from the hanger before making my way out. whoever it is better come bearing good news because right now, I am not even in the m

BASTIAN’s POVFuck!!!I have never been so angry in my life; I have never felt like killing someone like I feel now. I want to kill Cahir, I want to cut his body into tiny tiny pieces and scatter them all over the country. He touched her, he was in her room , she was naked and he fucked her.My blood is boiling, my whole body is shaking. I have never felt so helpless like I feel now. And she even allowed him, she let him touch her. I thought she said they were over? So what is he doing in her room? Did she lie to me, did she plan all this with him?I rake my hands through my hair, she can’t lie to me. Adeline is far too naïve to do that, he must have forced her and that’s why he was in her room. She must have begged him, she must have tried to tell him not to touch her but that bastard, I am sure he didn’t listen and he took advantage of her. I am going to make him pay in such a way that he will beg but I will be the one laughing last.I dip my whole body into the water again, lettin

ADELE POV.Someone frantically knocks on my door and I push my body off the bed but before I can even get to the door, it pushes open and my husband’s angry face comes into view. He looks so upset, so fucking upset.“Cahir, you…..The words hang in my throat as he yanks me closer and slam his lips on mine. Anger, desire, pain, lust and everything in between. He pushes me back against the wall and deepens the kiss making it almost impossible for me to breathe. Part of me like it, the part that want to have my hand wrapped around his torso while he fucked me into oblivion but the other part, the logical one wants to push him away and make him understand that he can not just walk into my room and kiss me like he owns me. Technically he does since we are still married but that aside, he can’t just.With my last ounce of logic, I gently push him off and a frustrated groan leaves his mouth as he pulls away from me. He is still close, so close that his natural scent is making a mess of me a

CAHIR’s POV.“Good, I want all of them in before next weekend” my voice resonates round the room as all eyes remain on me. Two days after I returned from Drakeworth, it has been boring. I haven’t seen her in two days and I genuinely do not know what’s going on. If I had known that Bastian would pack his belongings and go with her, I would have thought of something else to do with her.With hearfyre still out there, the urge to protect her continues to grow. I trust that she won’t be able to get her back in Drakesworth because it has been an age long tradition that drains are not allowed in the country unless with their bonded humans and that’s why I can always take Ivar with me anytime I visit.“Is that all?” Xerxes asks, cutting off my train of thought.“Didn’t you get it?”“Sorry?”“Don’t be stupid, Xerxes” the words are out of my mouth before I can even stop myself. I am being a bastard now but I genuinely have no intention of stopping. My wife is in Drakesworth with my brother wh

BASTIAN’s POV.I watched her leave, her shoulders hanging low. I knew Adele ever since she was a child. One thing is that she would never want to bug anyone with her problems no matter how large it is. She is having issues with her family but no one knows. Her sister and her mother both treat her badly but after knowing her, she opened up to me.I can say that I know her the most in this world, I know her more than everyone and it gives me a kind of joy to know her and be able to help her. That’s why the moment I watch her walk out of the palace gates, I turn around and walk back into the house. I need to have a serious conversation with Desdemona, I do not care if she is the queen but I do not play about Adele. Yes, I killed her father but she doesn’t know about that and she doesn’t need to know. He found out what he was not supposed to and that led to his death. Once again, people should mind their fucking businesses.Shoving the thoughts of him to the back of my head, I quicken my

ADELINE’s POV.I have known Gwen for a while because she is related to mother. What I didn’t know was the fact that she was Cahir’s nanny and even Bastian knew her. Now I am standing in front of them wondering the other things I do not know. It’s official, I am the most kept in the dark person in Drakesworth.They look close, Cahir is smiling genuinely at her and even Bastian too. They look really close.“I didn’t know you worked for him, aunt”“The palace kept it a secret, my dear” she says, “even your mother found out recently when she told me that you had gone to the borders to become a soldier. Then I told Cahir to take care of you. I think the gods are on my side because the two of you got marriage”“It was a sham marriage, Gwen” the words are out of my mouth before I can even stop it, “we are asking the king for a divorce”“What?” Her head whips towards him, “a divorce? Why?”“We are not getting a divorce, Gwen” Cahir says as a matter of fact, “you can try all you want. Gwen, I

CAHIR’s POVWith each step I take away from her, the urge to turn back and pull her into my arms and tell her how much I love her and how much I want to be with her. When I saw her earlier with Bastain, I was so upset that I had to come here to find her and when I saw her looking so beautiful inside that water, I wanted to keep looking at her forever but I didn’t want her to know she is my weak point , I want to be able to protect her without raising suspicion from anyone including the king and Bastain. The only person who knows about my plan is Desdemona and I will kill her if she ever thinks of betraying me.After leaving them, I make my way back to the palace, just in time to see the king before he leaves. Because of Adele, I have been frequenting the palace lately. Even though I don’t like it, I have to do it for her and nothing else.Today, I used my powers to trap Bastian in an endless loop of looking for her, I don’t know what I will do next when it comes to her.

ADELE’s POV.I stiffen in his embrace the moment his lips crashed against mine. It is hungry, vicious, ferocious and everything in between. He fists my hair in his hands and deepens the kiss, prying my mouth open in the process. This man before me looks so different from the Cahir that I knew, he looks like he is about to bring the world to its knees.But we shouldn’t be doing this, he is the same person who pushed me away, he has no right coming here and kissing me like he owns me and moreover I owe Bastian every iota of respect, he has helped me by bringing me me to his and his mother’s favorite place so how can I disrespect it like this?With my last ounce of power, I push him off and my hand lands on his face in a slap. How dare he? How dare he come here and act like everything is fine when he was the same person who pushed me away because he was sleeping with his step mother. The mere thought of it makes me so upset that the urge to drown him in this water encapsulates me.“How d

ADELE’s POV.I have trusted Bastian all my life but letting him bring me into this forest was definitely a bad idea but then, anything to keep me away from Cahir. I didn’t want to be in the same space with him, I didn’t want to breathe the same air with him. Anything to keep me away from him and at this point, I genuinely don’t care that Bastian lied to me about being the prince. He could do anything he wanted and I was enjoying that at the moment..well, i could be a hypocrite one more time. Being in the same room with Cahir a while back almost messed with me and I wanted to jump into his embrace, shame be damned but I didn’t. How could I forget the things he said to me? He made me feel like I didn’t even deserve to be in the same space as him. Yes, I loved him but I was done letting that love consume me. Now I am going to focus on finding my father’s murderer and also heartfyre. I have been able to control my powers now and the king has not said anything. I am still safe and that’s

BASTIAN’s POV.Adeline stiffens the moment the king asked her that question. She clenches her and unclenches her jaw and believe me, I know what’s going on in her mind. Talking about the man who broke your heart can be shitty stuff and it makes me get more upset with the king. Can’t he just drop it? Why the hell must I always do this?“You…“He forced me” Adele cuts me off and a look of surprise flashes through my face.“What?” King Tarus leans forward, all eyes on her.“He forced me into that marriage with him and he never told me the reason. I have asked a million times but he wouldn’t tell me. My lord” she immediately falls on her knees, “I am tired of being married to him, please grant me a divorce”For the second time today, my jaw drops. She didn’t even discuss this with me and now she…I should be happy she wants to end this marriage but she is Adele, she always has something up her sleeves.“So you want a divorce?”“Yes, your majesty” she responds, “it was stupidity on my side
