A Kiss For Your Freedom
Chapter 30

She kisses him quickly before coming back to me and kissing me in turn.

- You better come back in one piece.

- Don't worry love, I'll come back in one piece, I'll let you examine me so you can make sure.

It would be better for you, she said, smiling at me before turning her back on me to quickly slip away. Here, she said as she came back, Dorian also has his key, so you can come back whenever you want and I'll wait for you here this evening, she said firmly.

~ I'l be there this evening, I'l send you both a message during the day love, I swear.

1 believe you, she said before going to pour herself some coffee. I have a meeting with my sister this afternoon, but if you're OK, this evening we could have a real meal.

~1am for my beautiful one, declares Dorian, going to take her in his arms. If you want I'll take care of planning everythin; and we'll cook together.

- With pleasure, she replies. I have to go get ready so I won't be late.

- I'l accompany you to work, Jason will leave before us.

“It works,” she said, walking away.

Dorian turns to me before saying,

- You better keep your word.

I know I have to prove to them that they can trust me but I'm going to show them. would be there, I would leave everything just to be with them.

Dorian’s POV

I drive Emma to her work and dropping her off, I take the time to kiss her tenderly before telling her,

- Don't worry about him. Do what you have to do, the three of us will meet again tonight my dear.

- It works sweetheart, see you tonight.

I watch her walk away and enter the building before heading back down the road. No matter how confident I seem, I don’ like knowing that he's going back to his pack alone. The day is going to be long.

I arrive at my workshop and get to work, I absolutely have to finish this order before this evening, I've lost a little time in the last few days and now I have to work harder. I turn on the music as I often do and put on my apron before setting off. simple coffee table, nothing more, yet it doesn't inspire me at all. I sigh before getting started, it pays the bills and it's no bad.

The hours go by and I find it more and more difficult to concentrate, my anxiety only grows, I know that I am transmitting to them at the same time. A little after noon, Emma calls me,

- Hello sweetheart. Given how I feel I would say that you haven't heard this news either, have you?

- I'm sorry,

It's nothing, my heart. Should I be worried?

- Honestly, I don't know. I'd like to tell you no, but I'm not sure. I find his interview a little long.

- Do you feel he is in danger?

1 feel more anxious than in danger.

- Me too. Which doesn’t reassure me, I must say. Should we do something?

- Let's give him a little more time and if feel the slightest change I will go get him.

- OK, she said, sighing.

- It's going to be okay, don't worry, my dear. He won't leave us, I know it, I feel it and in any case, our marks are too fresh for him to stay away from us for too long.

~1 hope you're right, sweetheart. Well I have to go back. Lets keep each other informed, okay?

- All right.

As I hang up, I throw my cell phone on my workbench before putting my head in my hands. I don't like it, 1 really don't lik it

Jason's POV

I don't know what's going on but I don't like it. Steeven asked me to come and yet, now that I'm here, he's kept me waitin for over an hour. I don't understand what he is trying to do and when he opens the door to his office for me, I see that he not alone. Our Luna is there as well as two former Wolves, members of our council.

- Sit down Jason, Steeven said to me in a firmer tone than usual.

~ What is happening ? You asked me to come and I'm here so why this welcome?

- You know very well that we have a problem. I knew that your partner had met another Wolf but not who he was and yor marked him without worrying about the consequences. As for him, he is outside the law for his people, he certainly did n ask his Alpha for authorization to act in this way.

He left his pack. He didn't ask for anything.

- But I have an obligation to warn him. You know how it goes. You know I can't do otherwise.

- Of course there is, there is another solution. Let me go. I would disappear and no one would ever hear from me or them again. You can't keep me away from them forever and I can't force them to come here, you know that as much as I do. I won't be of any use to you in this state.

- You can't leave, the pack needs you, us. I can't let you do this. When you accepted your place, you agreed to put the pac first.

- That's already what I did when I met him. I helped you rebuild, I put you first and that's why he marked him before me. couldn't kidnap her to take her here and I didn't have time to explain everything to her, to make her understand what wa going to happen between us.

~ Why did you do that? Why didn't you tell me about it before marking it?

- Because it happened like that, I hadn't even thought about it, or even considered it, but at the time, I knew I had to do it. Quite simply.

~ We can't hide this from my father, our Luna said to me, smiling sadly. You know that the relationships between our pach are far too fragile for us to risk making the slightest mistake. We have to warn him.

- Strangely, that poses fewer problems when it comes to you, I said, getting up. What did you want me to do? He had already marked her and she didn't want to leave him. I made him suffer enough, I couldn't do it again and I don't regret anything, he's mine, mine, I say in a growl that surprises even me.

- Do you think you can challenge me, he said using his Alpha voice? Do you think you're a match for me?

~ No, I thought I was facing my friend before being facing my Alpha.

- Get out, he said to everyone else. NOW !

His voice rumbles, making the windows vibrate. He leaves them no choice and even his Luna bows to his power. She is th last to leave and closes the door behind her.

- Damn Jason, you're challenging my authority in public now. Do you know I should punish you just for that? You're the os who's causing me all these problems and you're the one who's complaining. The world is upside down there.

~ Why do you absolutely want to warn him? If I Leave now, no one will ever know.

- You know that's not true. I would have to find a new Beta, name him in public, and that's without talking about his training. All the other packs would know about the change in leadership and you know as well as I that an Alpha only changes Beta if the latter dies. And you're not f*****g dead. Do you realize the shit you just put us in? Do you know what you just did? He can claim it which will kill you or drive you crazy as desired, not to mention the suffering it will cause yo partner. And in the worst case, he might even force you to come to his place. I cannot guarantee its safety.

- And I can't leave him, it's impossible. He is as precious to me as she is.

~ I'm sorry Jason. Really sorry.

I then understand that he will not let me go. That this friend that I have known since I was a kid will stand up in front of me, in front of us. I sigh, realizing that in these eyes, I don't matter as much as I thought. My Wolf warns himself but befor he gains the upper hand, my Alpha jumps on me and throws me against the wall. I try to resist but his strength is much greater than mine. I see their faces and call him softly, it's only him who can still make the difference.

- Dorian, help me.

My eyes close as my mark begins to pulse violently, he got the message.

Emma's POV

'm in the middle of a meeting with my sister when I feel it, this pain, the weight of the betrayal before feeling nothing at all. 1 don't feel it anymore, Jason has disappeared as if by magic. I panic and get up before apologizing to my sister.

- 1 feel bad, sorry I have to go out for a few minutes. I need to get some fresh air.

- Okay, go ahead, you're suddenly pale, she says as I leave the office.

I quickly head outside, pulling out my cell phone.

“I felt it too,” he said, picking up the phone. I'm going right now.

- Out of the question, let's go together. Jason is as much mine as he is yours, my heart. I'm coming.

- But you are.

- Yes, it's okay, I know I'm just a poor little human, but I'm coming with you, that's all.

- OK, he said sighing, it would be better if you came, my house is closer to his pack. You have a car ?

- Don't worry, I'm going to use my connections, I'll be there in less than thirty minutes.

I return to the box before heading towards reception.

“I need a car, a powerful car, I said, slamming my hand on his desk.

- Um OK, here, she said while giving me the keys to a vehicle. You must fill out the form for exit.

- No time, put it in my office, I'll take care of it when I get back, if my sister says something you tell her that I insisted, I'm a hurry, okay.

- All right.

I £0 to the garage and quickly find the car, seeing it, my smile widens, she didn't make fun of me, it won't take me thirty minutes to arrive in Dorian. I start off with a bang and let the engine of this little car do the rest.
