Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER TWENTY TWO
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

ADELE’s POV. I continue watching them circle the sky until the four of them land in front of me and I almost lose my footing because of the intensity of their presence but Bastain is fast enough to catch me. “Are you okay?” He asks and I nod. “I am fine,” I tell him. Some other soldiers have already gathered and they all look in awe of the dragons. There is a black dragon, a blue dragon, a black and a red dragon and they all look fierce and dangerous. If I am an ordinary person, I would have run away but how can I? I have so much to learn about them, I have to find out if my father actually did something to warrant his death from them. I start to slowly walk towards them but Bastain grabs a hold of my hand. “You can not go near that thing, Adeline” he tells me, “they look dangerous and they could harm you” My mind drifts off to Cahir’s protection rune and I shake my head in the negative. “I will be fine,” I tell Bastain. I don’t know why I trust Cahir’s rune to protec

CAHIR’s POV. The moment she steps into her room, I grab her and pin her against the wall, my gaze darkening and my whole body tenses up. Just one silly thing from her is enough to get me upset. What kind of power does she have over me for godsake? Seeing the way Bastian jumped into to save her got me really upset. She wasn’t in danger to begin with even if she was, the rune would have saved her but she chose to just be foolish. “You are hurting me, general” she manages to say but I don’t loosen my grip on her, I am too upset to even do it. “Were you in danger?” I ask her. “Bastain didn’t believe that” “Were you in danger?” I ask her again. “No” “Good, stay away from him” “What?” Despite the pain radiating through her body, a huge frown appears on her forehead, “what are you talking about?” “If you want to reach your full potential, you have to stay away from him” I bark out, “do you understand what I am saying to you?” “He is my best friend” “I don’t care”I fin

ADELE’s POV. “Today we are going to be finding out clues about our enemies in the bushes. If your group fails to come back without any clues, you will be locked away in the dungeon for a week and if your group finds any clues, you are safe” xena’s voice resonates round the entire assembly ground. My eyes dart across everyone and they look ready except for me. I haven’t spoken to my best friend in a week, like he has been purposely avoiding me. I see him talking to Caroline more often and they seem to be getting close while Cahir is nowhere to be found. He disappears and appears when he deems fit. It’s none of my business though and I certainly do not feel like seeing him after the stunt he pulled earlier. “Meet with your group supervisors and you can set off” Xena says again and we all break up, clustering around in our small numbers and groups. My eyes open wide when I see James walking towards our group. Why is he coming here? I thought he had his own group. “It seems like he

BASTIAN’s POV, I pull her into my embrace right on time or this bastard would have hurt her. Wasn’t he even scared to attack her when she was with me? He is tired of living? My sword is buried deep into his chest and blood is pouring out of his mouth, this is when Adele slowly pull away from me and seeing James hanging on my sword, she lets out a gasp. “He wanted to attack you,” I tell her. “Do you think this is enough to stop me?” James asks, a mocking smirk on his lips. “What exactly do you want from me, James?” Adele inquires, “you were the same person who said foul things about my father and I will not take that. Haven’t you been hurt enough?” “I won’t rest until I kill you” he spits out in anger before he pushes the sword out of his body. Turning around, we watch him walk away much to my amazement. He doesn’t look hurt from the injury. This is my cue to keep Adele from him, he is a fucking psychopath. “Are you okay?” I ask her and she nods. “I am fine” “Good, we

ADELE’s POV. After having a chat with Bastian, I finally make my way back to the fort. For the last four days, I developed a kind of sickness and it felt like I was going to die but Cahir didn’t let me out of the fort nor did he let me out of bed. For four days, he kept watch over me and I watched him infuse magic powers into me everyday to make sure I was fine. I even slipped into a coma on one of those days and I met my father in my dream. He told me I had a lot to do and I can’t die now. I asked him about my sealed energy and he told me it was fine to find out on my own and it was locked for a reason. He told me how much he loved me and how sorry he was that I have to go through all of this and he said nothing more. I kept asking him questions but I only watched him fade and fade into oblivion leaving me standing in the middle of nowhere. The last four days have been hectic and I actually thought I was going to die even though Cahir was with me. He didn’t stop being a jackass bu

CAHIR’s POV. The moment I close her door behind me, I let out the breath I didn’t know I was holding. Gods, her deep blue eyes made it almost impossible for me to stay away and I had to lean closer to get a better view of those eyes and those plump lips of hers. For the past four days, I have been taking care of her and believe me, I never want to see her in that kind of a situation again. It felt like she was going to die, she even slipped into a coma for a full day. I rake my fingers through my hair as I start down the hallway but I meet Xena halfway. Why the heck is she still here? I thought she left? “I thought you would never come out” “What do you want?” “About Adele, you… “We are not doing this” I already know what she wants to talk about and I am genuinely not in the mood to listen to her. “I am tired right now and I need to take some rest. If you are less busy, why don’t you track down the hideouts of the Alkis” “Wow, you won’t even talk to your sister bu

ADELE’s POV. Right from when we got on his dragon and his hand slipped around my waist, my body began to heat up and now being in his arms, his breath fanning my face and my body pressed against his shirtless body doesn’t feel like the right thing to do. I should move away from him, he is nothing but a hard hearted man and I will only get hurt. He has shown me times without numbers that I mean nothing to me and I shouldn’t give him this much power over me. I try to move away from him but he doesn’t let go, his hold becoming more tight on me. “Where are you going?” “I want to get some fresh air” I tell him, “so…. “Do you want me?” His voice is hoarse and deep, his onyx eyes peering into mine. My heart skips a beat, why is he suddenly asking me this? He always told me to stay away from him and now he is asking if I want him. On two occasions, I told him I wanted him and on those two occasions, he made me feel like one of those harlots back in Drakeswoth who couldn’t keep th

ADELE’s POV.We stay like that for a while, my head on his shoulder as the chirping of birds continues around us. I don’t even know how I got to this part of the forest but it looks so calm, I could stay here forever and not get tired of it. But something immediately clicks in my head and I immediately pull away from him. A look of surprise appears on Bastian’s face.“Stay away from him” Cahir’s voice rings in my ear as he slammed into me with reckless abandon. He made it clear that he didn’t want me hanging around with Bastian and even fucked me to tears so I wouldn’t forget that.My face flush, how did we get here? How did..“Are you okay?” His voice cuts through me again, concern written on his face, “tell me, did something happen to you?”I abruptly stand up, dusting the back of my pants.“I am fine,” I manage to tell him, “but we should probably go now. It’s getting late”“Why? We can stay here as long as we want, no one will say anything. Rest assured”“Well” I fold my hands ac

ADELE’s POV.I didn’t expect Bastian to take it lightly but I didn’t expect him to look me in the eyes and say such horrible things to me. He said things that he would never say and no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t shake those words out of my head. He was mean to me, he said horrible things to me and I will make him remember that for as long as he is alive.“Cadet” a voice calls behind me and I raise my head to see one of the palace soldiers.“Yes”“The Queen will be ready to leave in a few minutes, you should get ready to escort her.“Okay, I am already ready though”“You should get her chariot out”“Sure”After getting the chariot out, I wait by it and after a while, I see her coming towards me with Bastian beside her. They are both saying something and laughing about it. My heart cramps but I shake it off, it is actually none of my business.“Your majesty” I bow to her but she ignores me and turns to Bastian.“Please, ride with me”“Of course not, your majesty” he says, “I wi

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. The only thing

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
