I controlled the cage, making it continuously shrink, watching with my own eyes as the sharp spikes pierced his body. Watching him curl up in agony and howl, watching him experience everything our son had experienced. "Damon, death is the easiest thing. You don't deserve it!" "T refuse to be your mate. You're not worthy to be my son's father! I've already applied to the council to dissolve our mate bond." Damon was stunned for a moment, then began laughing. "You forgot-I'm the pack's Alpha. Our mate contract won't be easily dissolved!" "Aria, I was just temporarily bewitched by that woman. From beginning to end, I've only ever ---- loved you.

As long as we don't separate, from now on I'll be forever loyal to you!" "T'll handle that woman and her children properly so they'll never trouble you again!" "Really? Too late! Damon, prepare to face your retribution!"
