The warm breeze carried away the intoxicating scent of strawberries Tatiana left behind, and rage bubbled inside Maddox as he slowly processed what just happened.
How can Tatiana disregard him? They are mates! She should worship the ground he is walking on and not dismiss him like some nobody!
And even without the mate bond, he is an Alpha! This was blatant disrespect.
Part of him was angry because he was the one allowing Tatiana this freedom, and she was abusing it!
No matter if it's in terms of physical strength or his Alpha aura, he could suppress Tatiana easily but he didn't want to play that way. He never forced a woman to obey him, and he had no intention to do so now.
But it hurt to be this humiliated by a woman who should be his other half.
Maddox wanted to snatch that enchantress, put her over his knee, and give her a good spanking.
Maddox was about to throw flowers on the ground when Damon grabbed his raised arm.
