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

ADELE’s POV.I freeze the moment the dagger goes through him. He put himself in between Bastian and I willingly drove the dagger into him. My whole body starts to shake seeing the blood dripping from his injury.“Cahir!!” His name rolls out of my mouth as someone immediately pushes me away from him and I crash into a nearby table.People immediately gather around him, trying to hold onto him.“Cease her murderer!!” Someone yells but my whole attention is on the man in front of me whose gaze is still on me. Two men grab me from behind but I don’t even struggle with them, not when the man I love is bleeding in front of me. Why did he have to run in front of the dagger like that? I wanted to hurt Bastian because he killed my father, I didn’t plan on hurting Cahir. My body is shaking at this point, what will I do if something happens to him and he doesn’t make it?“Let her go!” His voice resonates in the entire hall, I can feel pain and anger from his voice, “she is going to stay by my s

CAHIR’s POV.One last chance and she took his hand again. One last chance and she showed me why I shouldn't have bothered to give her a chance. She came to my banquet and decided to hang around my brother? I will kill her. I have always been a jealous one, not wanting to share what belongs to me. That is probably why I hate Bastian because I have to share my father with him and now I have to also share my wife’s affection with him. Even the gods bear me witness, I rather die than do something like that. She has made an enemy of me and I won’t just sit back, I won’t let her continue to ruin me. I made the right choice, she means nothing to me anymore.“You don’t look so happy here?” Father’s voice jolts me out of my thoughts, “is the banquet not to your liking?”“Of course it is father” I flash him a fake smile, wishing to be anywhere but here right now. Fuck!! I hate this, I hate this with every fiber of my being.“I thought so” I can see the strained smile on his lips. He never wante

ADELE’s POV.“Are you sure about this?” Morgana asks for the umpteenth time and once again, I nod. I think I am more than ready. It has been two weeks, two weeks that my family have been thrown in prison, two weeks of trying to purge him out of my system and I can’t lie, it hasn’t been easy but it is worth it. He arrested my family and that’s the deal breaker for me.“Do not worry, Morgana” I touch her shoulders lightly, “I won’t let anyone hurt me okay? And moreover, I am going with heartfyre, do you think that dragon will let anyone hurt me?”“Of course I trust her, I just don’t trust that General”“I will take them to a safe place and come back okay?”Smiling at her, I pick up my scabbard and off I go. In no time, hearfyre is up in the sky, our destination Drakeswoth. Today, I am going to put an end to every fucking thing.“I am sure the general is awaiting your arrival” her voice filters into my ear again.“He can wait all he wants. Do not speak or him again”With that I close my

CAHIR’s POV.“You are making a mistake, General” Ivar tells me as I gulp down the content of the glass. I have always loved good wine, I just haven't had the time to drink them for a while now because I have been too concerned about my stubborn little wife who decided to choose my brother over me. I should have known that she would always choose him. She is with me because she can not be with him, she chose me because she didn’t know how to be with him. How dare her not believe me? His dare she thinks I would lie about her father when I know how much he means to her but my pretty little wife looked me in the eyes and called me a liar, she took his hand and led him out of the room.I angrily smash the goblet on the wall as that image somehow creeps Into my mind. My jaw clenches together and I close my eyes trying to push that memory out. She held his hand, she knows how much I hate him and how many fucking times did I tell her to stay away from him? Why the heck does she never listen?

ADELE’s POV.“Of course I killed that old man” the grinning Bastian half yells, his sword to my neck, “he found out about things he shouldn’t have bothered himself with and you think I would let him live?”The grin on his face widens as he tries to slash my neck with his sword but I immediately open my eyes, it was a dream. My entire body is covered with sweat. The dream looked and sounded real like he was in front of me.It’s true, I still haven’t got Cahir’s words out of my head but does that warrant this kind of life like dream? The Bastian I know can be unruly but he wouldn’t dare to kill my father, will he? He told me he was innocent and I believed him so why did I have this dream? What in the god's name is going on that I do not know about?I gently climb out of the bed and make my way out of the room. Morgana and her father must be asleep. Not wanting to wake any of them up, I make my way out of the castle into the huge courtyard. Looking at it, it reminds me of the courtyard b

ADELE’s POV.A week later.Seeing the smile on all their faces, my heart swells in joy. They all look Look happy to see me like I have been a part of them for thousands of years. I don't know but somewhere within me I know that I have to protect these people even if I don't know anything about them. They are under my command now. They have become my own people and I have become their leader.The last week has been hectic for me, I tried to forget everything that Cahir said to me, how he made me feel like I was a bother to him and I actually regretted the fact that I felt vulnerable in front of him even for a moment. He is not to be trusted, he is not someone I should have put my trust in and now I have witnessed that first hand. Diets, he wanted to take me to his father and as if that was not enough, he lied about Bastian being responsible for what happened to my father. He knows how much I get triggered by my father yet he chose to say to me. I will never be able to forgive him and I

BASTIAN’s POV.As soon as she walks off, I turn around and make my way back to Cahir’s room. How did he even find out that I killed Adele’s father? Only Xena and Caroline know about me, did one of them tell him? How did that bastard find out about me?I was at a loss for words when he blurted that out but imagine my surprise when she didn’t believe him. Adele is obsessed with finding her father’s killer and I thought she would jump at the chance of pinning her father’s death on me but imagine my surprise when she grabs a hold of my hand and pulls me out of the room. She chose me, she chose me over her husband and I can’t feel more fulfilled than any other achievements I have ever had. But own thing, her pregnancy. I have to deal with that once and for all, she can’t be pregnant for him. That child will end up belonging to me and that’s the biggest truth. I won’t let him harm Adele even in any way, she is mine and she just proved it hands down.I push his door open and saunter into th

ADELE’s POV.It’s like my world has come to a standstill after hearing what Cahir just said. What the hell did he mean by Bastian killing my father? I only came here to tell him about my pregnancy and not to have the two of them play with my feelings like this. Cahir knows how sensitive I am when it forms to my father yet he is still uttering such words. When did my dad’s topic become something he can joke about? And that too, with Bastian? Telling me that my best friend killed my dad will forever be funny to me. I know Bastian has done a whole lot of things which we are both not proud of but joking like this is not something I want.I clench my jaw together, turning to Cahir again. He has a smug look on his face. I should have known. He is not someone who wants to lose and he will put anything and everything on the line for that. What did I expect from someone who wants to take me to his father just because I told him I was pregnant even when he knows what his father wants to do to m

CAHIR’s POV.Someone pushes my door open and a look of surprise appears on my face when I see who it is. Her, how did she get in here? Did anyone see her? Did xena see her? My sister actually told me she was going to follow the king’s orders and kill Adele on sight and that’s why I have put off looking for her for the past two days. I know she will be safe, somehow I believed what she told me a few days ago about the city of dragons. Adele does not lie, she wouldn’t have lied about something like that. I shouldn’t have held my sword to her, I shouldn’t have threatened her and I regret it.But despite all that, here she is in front of me. How did she even enter the barracks?“Adele?” Her name rolls out of my lips as I pull my body off the bed and cover the distance between us, “how did you get in here?”But instead of answering, my wife throws herself into my embrace and I immediately wrap my hands around her waist, pulling her closer. My body immediately heats up, I have missed her li
