"She is what?" Ekler Uzuh aku

The man is not hard of hearing; why is he making me repeat myself? "Angel is my bonded." I point at Stefan and Reyes. "Our demons anchored themselves to Angel's soul"

Angel cocks her head. "I thought the bond broke,"

"Angel!" I hiss because this is not the time to talk about this

"That's what you said after you punished me because you wouldn't bother to listen to me," she huffs.

She needs a good spa nking to learn to keep her mouth closed.

I might have thrown her over my lap and done just that if not for Elder Janoah asking. "Did you say she

is a hellstar?"

"Yes," says Reyes.

"Are you certain?” Elder Janoah insists. “Is there a mate mark behind her left ear?"

Angel's hand ties to her ear, covering it, but lowers it the moment she realizes what she did

"A what?" I ask

Before Elder Jannah can repeat his question, Stefan pulls Angel's hair to the side and looks behind her left ear. "There's Glaring at Reyes, he adds, "Told you she is not a hellstar."

"Mark or no mark, she is a hellstar," Reyes insists.

"This is why I was brought here, to debate whether I am a hellstar or not?" Angel finally speaks.

"No, we wanted you here to pick a date for our Piercing Ceremony," I explain.

Angel huffs. "I never agreed to your stupid piercings."

Elder Uzziah seems taken aback. "Did no one explain to her what the ceremony means?

"The only thing they explained was how to sack their co cks"

I run a palm over my face. This woman!

Elder Uzziah clears his throat. “Regardless, you were born to a Duke family, and you should marry a Duke. That is the way set by our forefathers, and we have to respect it"

"But she is our hellstar!" Reyes snaps at Elder Uzziah. "And she might be pregnant!"

"I am not," Angel says calmly.

"You could," I point out. "We never used contraceptives when fucking you!"

"I am not pregnant," Angel insists.

"How do you know?" Stelan asks.

"I do," Angel offers no explanations.

The way she is saying it... She is hiding something from us. "Are you infertila?" I ask. Not that it would matter. We will find a surrogate; Angel's worth is not in womb in her

Angel unks into the sofa. "That's not it."

"Then tell me!" I yell.

She debates whether to tell me or not, and I can't stop myself from grabbing her shoulders and shaking her while yelling again. "Tell me! Or will sp ank you, and this time, you won't be able to sit for month!"

"Your love is so toxic I would rather die alone then live a life with you!"

"Did you ever love me? Or any of us? I want to know.

She shorts. "I hate you more than I can express. All of you!"

Angel not only does not love me and want a family with Stefan, Reyes, and I, but she hates us.

Even Reyes and Stefan are at a loss for words. Reyes eyes flash red, and he starts to tremble, his palms opening and closing,

and it won't be long before he has a rage episode. It would be best if it does not happen here.

I stand. "We are done here."

"About the meeting from last Friday." Elder Janoah starts to say, but I interrupt him.

"Tomorrow. We can discuss it then. Right now, I want to go home. Suddenly. I am very tired,” I say.

No one stops me as I make my way to my car. Reyes, Stefan, and Angel follow me.

"Alekos," she tries to talk to me, but I ignore her. This betrayal of hers hurts. She doesn't want a child with me and she hates me. Maybe it is best to let her free. My mother always told me that if it is meant to be, it will return to me.

"Stefan, can you take Angel to Reyes apartment? Reyes, come with me."

"Where are you two going?" Stefan asks when I unlock my car.
