All Chapters of Bonded to the ruthless General: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

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.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 protect me when I know

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 is the

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 but

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 their legs clos
