#Chapter 138 - Selene Calls Bastien
Arabella
“What?” I squeak, “Why do you want to meet Blaise?” That cannot be allowed to happen. Blaise can’t find out he’s here!
“I need allies.” Bastien explains, releasing me. “And he’s the closest possibility.”
Though my tears had been completely fake a moment before, true desperation grips me now. “No Bastien, please.” I beg. “You don’t know Blaise. If he knows the Nova pack is without an Alpha right now, if he finds out you’re here all alone, he’ll move against you.” This much, at least, is true. “I came here because I thought it was the only place I’d be safe from Selene, because Blaise is an even bigger monster than she is. He’s powermad and violent, he wants to grow his empire at any cost.”
“The Nova pack isn’t without an Alpha.” Bastien growls, “And I’m not so weak as you imagine.”
