#Chapter43
Ace POV
I drove all night for Avery to turn around and say no. I thought she would be happy it was the most selfless thing I could do. I was letting her go, letting her be free of me and all the pain I have caused her. Yet Avery turned me down refusing to remove the mate bond, yet she took Lucy’s mark when I marked her. I hoped to plead with Aamon but he wasn’t home, hoping he could convince her. She removed the bond for Lucy But now won’t take the bond for me, saying it was for Lucy to decide. Decide what? She fucking hates me and I know the only reason she hasn’t rejected me is because of her fear of upsetting Tyson.
Her being mated to me was not only making her miserable but my brother. Walking out of Avery’s house I get back in my car. This was fucking bullshit. She doesn't want me so I don’t see the issue with Avery snapping her fingers and relieving us both of the bond. She was not only punishing Lucy but Tyson by leaving her tied to me.
