Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER FOURTEEN
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 here to be a soldier

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 say and I imm

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 getting something in

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 force ins

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 but that wo

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 mood to jok

CAHIR’s POV.The moment I walk out of the room, I slump against the wall and close my eyes. I shouldn’t have kissed her because that actually gave her the wrong impression like something can happen between us.To me, she is only here because of that mark on her neck and a good number of people died for her cause, people like my mother. The only thing I feel for her is hatred and nothing more. Once I no longer need her, I will be the one to put a dagger through her head.“Where are you?” I ask Ivar.“Waiting for your order, general,” he answers.“We leave at once”I start making my way down the large stairs. I was in Drakesworth when I noticed she was in danger and I had to come see for myself. That girl puts me in a constant state of worry for her.Ivar is already waiting in front of the gates but seeing the look on his face, i know he has a whole lot to say and I am genuinely not ready to hear it. He never misses a chance to taunt me.“You sure took your time, didn’t you, general?”“

ADELE’s POV.Sweat is dripping down my face as Zara and I engage in a heated fist fight. She is extremely good with her fists and I am glad she chose to teach me.This is two days after the encounter with Cahir and I have finally come to terms with the fact that he is the general and I am just an aspiring soldier. The two of us are opposites and we can never attract.“Cadets” xerxes’s voice cut through the intensity of our fight and we stop, alongside the others.“That’s all for today, you can retire now” he says again and everyone starts to mumble to themselves. Right now, the energy is radiating through my body and I just want to keep fighting.“Cadet Woods” he calls to Zara, “come with me”“Ugh!!!” I groan lightly, there goes the intensity of our fight.“Let's catch up later” Zara whispers to me before walking off.There is a stone bench around so I lower myself on it while I go ahead to remove my leather gloves. I have sensitive skin and the littlest bruise can show so much on my

BASTIAN’s POV.Adeline and I are sparring on the mat, she is saying something to me which is making me laugh but before I can respond to what she is saying, someone attacks her from behind and she falls forward, blood dripping from her mouth.I am fast in catching her before she falls to the ground, I look up to see James with a sleazy smirk on his face.“I will fucking kill you” I grit undrt my breath, “I swear to the gods”“that’s if you can save her before the poison gets to her heart”He doesn’t even look remorseful, he didn’t even care.“Wait for me” I mutter under my breath before gathering her up in my arms and running out of the hall. I meet Cahir who immediately goes to find James the moment I told him he was the one who injured her.I don’t bother asking him anything, my main worry now is about Adeline.“Is she going to be okay?” I ask the physician, “what happened?”“He used a spell to slow her heartbeat before infusing it with poison which will surely kill her if we do not
Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER FORTY TWO
CAHIR’s POV.If I had known she was up to no good, I wouldn’t have left her alone in my room. How did heartfyre find her? He has been sealed off for years, how was he able to communicate with her? And to think that she even found the door to the cave at the first attempt. Adeline is even much more than I expected.Thinking about that dragon, I grit my teeth in anger. I won’t let it anywhere near her no matter what. She has been at bay for the longest time and I am going to keep it that way.“You can not stop fate, general” Ivar’s voice reaches my ear and I can feel a tinge of pain from it. I also understand how he feels. Not being able to be with the one who is bonded with causes a lot of pain which I have seen in Ivar’s eyes all these years. Ivar and heartfyre are two dragons bonded by heart but separated by circumstances.“Not now, Ivar” I cut him off, “where are you? We need to leg for Drakesworth now”“Are you sure you want to leave her young cadet alone here?”“I am going to war

ADELINE’s POV.When I open my eyes, Cahir is nowhere to be found but I can hear the sound of water splashing in the washroom. Fuck, a while ago I was almost screaming my lungs out because of how good it felt to have him inside of me again even though I knew it was just for that moment.My eyes travel to the wall again and I let out a sigh. I wouldn’t be able to check it out now but I am glad I have been able to find it.The bathroom door opens up and he steps out, a towel wrapped around his waist.Gods, this man is fucking hell. It must have taken years and years of intense workout to achieve this perfect body. From all the men I have seen, he has the most pronounced stomach abs and coupled with the few scars he has on his chest, he looks so good.. like someone straight out of a storybook. I know because I have read some of bryer’s books and looks exactly like the way those authors describe them.“If you are done staring, why don’t you get dressed?” His voice is so low and gruff and I

CAHIR’s POV.The moment I entered the room, I felt her presence and I knew she was here somewhere. What I didn’t know was why she came here. She made it clear to me that she doesn’t want anything to do with me again but here she is in my room and hiding behind my curtains.She heard everything about me, everything about my love and my life. I can’t lie, I was upset but it’s not like she wouldn’t find out sooner or later.Even as I told her to leave my room, she keeps standing watching me pull my shirt. I can only get into her head for a moment, how I wish I can know what’s going on in her head. These days, she has become so close to Bastian and I am sure he knows a lot more about her than me.“Aren’t you going to leave?” I ask, not bothering to look at her.“Did that hurt?” Her voice reaches me and I frown upon hearing that, what does she mean?I turn my head and I see her standing a few feet from me, her face has a puzzled look on there.“Your tattoo, did it….She comes close to me,

ADELE’s POV.“If you are his woman, why are you telling me?” I force myself to ask her, “you do not know me and I do not know you, you shouldn’t be bothered”“Of course” her eyes travel around me before settling on my face again, “but tell me, what are you doing here?”“I had something to discuss with the general so I came to find him”“He isn’t here, he is at the tent”“Okay, thank you”After that, I try to leave but she halts me.“You haven’t even told me your name”“It doesn’t matter, priestess”Not waiting for her response, I hasten away. What the heck was I thinking even coming here? He clearly doesn’t want me and I keep clinging onto him. Why would he chose me when he has someone like her?I haven’t gone far when I see him and Xena coming towards the fort. As soon as he sees me, he stops walking but I walk past him, not on my life. He has seen me vulnerable once, I won’t let him see that again.“Cadet!” His voice halts me, “what are you doing here?”“I came to look for Bastian”
Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT
ADELE’s POV.We haven’t spoken in days and the first thing he asks me when he sees me Is why I am chit chatting in class and before I can even say anything, another lady comes calling him in the sweetest voice I have ever heard. Before I left, I saw her and I can’t lie, she is pretty and she looks like someone worthy of standing beside him. I guess this is why he rejected me, she could be the person xena told me about but a little part of me still hurts. I mean, he married me for reasons best known to him then he discards me and brings his lover to make me upset.I can’t lie I was jealous and upset throughout until he showed up at the dining room. Part of me wants to walk to him and throw my hands around his neck and kiss him but his lover could be somewhere behind him. Our gaze met for a moment but he didn't linger, I guess this is what we are now.But best believe I was happy when he asked Caroline to be thrown into the dungeon. She has been on my case for a while now and my joy kno
Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN
CAHIR’s POV.She hasn’t looked at me since the day i rejected her, she has immersed herself in training sessions, not bothering to even spare me a glance.I watch her like a hawk when she hangs out with her friends and even more when she hangs out with Bastain. She laughs with him when he says something amusing which irritates me. She doesn’t know him like I do yet she acts like he is the best thing that has happened to her.The other day, they were both in the same sparring group and I watched him allow her to win. Is that the way he wants to help her? By not letting her reach her full potential? I think he doesn’t know what lies ahead of her and he thinks he would be able to protect her every fucking day.Now they are having a lecture and from where I am seated, I can see the two of them chit chatting during classes. I clench my jaw together, maybe I need to go harder on her than I already am.“General” xerxes’s voice reaches my ear and I raise my head to see him standing beside me.
Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER THIRTY SIX
ADELE’s POV“What do you mean you are bad for me, Cahir?” I go ahead to ask him, “what exactly is so dangerous about me loving you and you loving me? You married me, you feel something for me”“I married you because you are useful to me” he sneers, his eyes lingering on my lips for a while, “and with everything I have going on in my head, I do not have the strength to fall in love”“But….” I touch his arm lightly, “it’s not my fault that I fell for you..you.He grips my shoulders violently and I wince in pain.“Don’t you hate me?” He asks, “you said you would hate me forever right? You should keep hating me, that’s the only thing that can keep you alive. Do not love me Adeline”Letting go of me, he walks out of the tent. Part of me wants to follow him but I stop myself. He has clearly told me he didn’t love me, I shouldn’t cling onto him again. He made it clear to me, I would only be stupid if I kept clinging onto him.Sniffing back a tear, I clean the tears glistening my eyes and clo

ADELINE’s POV.A light groan leaves my mouth and I slowly open my eyes. My eyes travel round the room as I pull my body to a sitting position. This is my room back at the fort. How did I get here? I can’t seem to remember what happened but I remember telling Cahir that I do not wish to stay in the fort anymore.My thoughts are interrupted when the door pushes open and Xena saunters in with a tray of food.“You have finally woken up”I don’t bother answering, I genuinely do not have the strength to exchange words with her.“Have your food” she says, drops the food on the table beside me, “Cahir said you should finish every single morsel”“I am not hungry” I tell her, pulling my body off the bed, “I think I need to leave now”She watches me pull out my boot from under the bed and get dressed before grabbing my scabbard.“Thank you”“Where are you going?”“The other cadets should be returning now, I will join them”“The general has not given you permission to leave”“I do not need his pe
