The Werewolf's Vampire Mate
Chapter 197: Tell the truth

Chapter 197: Tell the truth

Rex.

I open the door to my room and they are both in front of my door. They are both staring at each other.

Panic takes over my whole being because the first thing I think is that Gyles has told him everything. I don’t know what I would do if he already knows. I plan on telling him tonight. After our date. I don’t want to ruin this with him.

Blue looks very masculine but I have come to know that he is a very sensitive being. His exterior doesn’t really match his interior.

"Uh, what is happening here,’’ I manage. I don’t want to assume anything because I don’t know yet. There could be a reasonable explanation for this pair.

Right.

In what looks like a difficult attempt, he snaps out of whatever trance he is in and turns to me. There is a confused expression on his face. His face is red, his eyes very dark. The kind of darkness that makes me think he is thinking dirty thoughts. Something springs up to my mind. It is just a split second but I think about it anyway.

What if this thing between us is between all of us and not just me as the middle man? What if we are each other’s mate?

That thought is exciting to me because I don’t want them to have to share me. I want this thing between the three of us to be mutual. The more I think about it, the more excited I am. "What are you doing here Gyles,’’ I decided to interrupt their staring contest. Blue turns towards me immediately, getting out of his trance. I look at him for the first time. He is dressed in a dark blue pair of jeans and a black turtle neck shirt. His hair is neatly brushed over his shoulders. I never thought I would have a thing for short hair on a guy but he is one of the sexiest men I have ever met.

"Hey,’’ he smiles at me, almost like he is oblivious to how awkward it was a second ago.

"You met Gyles.’’

His eyes go back to Gyles. Who has this expression on his face that I can’t read. They seem to be in the same zone. Almost like they both can’t even see me. It is weird that right now, it feels like I am out of whatever is going on. Blue slowly turns back to me "You look great,’’ he breathes out, his voice is strained and husky.

I love the way it sounds.

I smile because the two of them next to me is giving me a lot of energy that I need to steam out "I am ready,’’ I say, walking out of the room.

He nods "Gyles showed me where your room was,’’ he smiles, slowly turning to him again.

I don’t know what is happening but I like this a lot "Oh, you forgot where it was?’’ I manage with the smile still on my face.

He looks back at me and his cheeks are red "I actually got turned around and ended up in his room. He was kind enough to bring me here,’’ he confesses innocently.

I know that Gyles knew what he was doing. He knows Blue and I don’t think he likes him—or at least he doesn’t like the fact that he likes me. "Is that true?’’ I face him with a raised brow.

He nods "Yes it is." this is the first thing he has said and I feel like he is reading my mind. Like he has been doing all weekend.

"I don’t know why your name is so familiar. I feel like I have heard it before,’’ Blue pipes up, striking conversation with him. There must be interest within him. Why else would he continue this conversation? We have a date to go for. I have to tell him the truth about everything and I can’t do it here.

"I am the forbidden guy. You know the one everyone in the community has been talking about?’’ Gyles answers with a smile on his face. His attention seems to be solely on Blue. Almost like he is enjoying whatever the fuck is going on between them. I know I just said that I like whatever this is but right now, I am feeling a little jealous. I like the attention on me. I have always been in the shadows. Never the center of attention and suddenly I am. I felt the love from the two of them—I liked it a lot. Now Blue seems to be focused on Gyles.

I don’t know if I like that, especially since I haven’t even had any real alone time with Blue. When I first met him, the whole war with Cassius was going on, and then he went for the weekend.

"Cassius’s Lover?’’ Blue realizes, there is still a smile on his face. He doesn’t seem peeved out by that. The scene in front of me seems flirtatious.

"Well yeah." Gyles doesn’t deny it.

Deep down, I know he still hasn’t gotten over Cassius "I didn’t know him as Cassius. He will always be Roger to me." he takes a step closer to Blue. My eyes remain on the two of them. "You are the mate?’’

I freeze because I don’t know how Blue will feel about that. He would probably not be happy that I told him...right?

"Guilty,’’ he breathes out. Looking at me again. He walks over to me and pulls me into him with my hand. My body presses to him. I know I said I wanted to be the center of attention, maybe I spoke to soon because the look on Gyles’s face shatters me completely. I see the jealousy in his eyes, the pain. I know he doesn’t like this sight.

"I should go back to my room,’’ he coughs out nervously "Enjoy your date,’’ he faces Blue, giving him one last smile. There is this lingering expression on his face. It almost looks like he feels left out. Does he actually want the two of us? I think that will be the best thing for us all. Having each other.

I watch Gyles as he walks away and I already miss him. Blue is still looking at him. I don’t know what he is thinking or how he feels but there is something there. It feels like he feels whatever I do.

"How come I have never noticed him before?’’ he asks me, just as I disappear from his view. I don’t want to tell him that it has just been a week since he came here. I have to tell him everything that happened first.

"It has just been a week. I am sure you were bound to meet him eventually,’’ I give him a vague answer.

Tell him now.

My wolf shouts at me. I want that too. That will be the best thing to do, instead of pretending and keeping it from him. I take a deep breath. I wanted to wait until the date was over but it seems like I have to know.

"Are you ready?’’ he asks, pulling me even closer to him.

I manage a smile because his scent is distracting me. the pull that comes when he is around is takinging over. I should be able to focus on only him and not think about Gyles but he is also on my mind. I feel fucking guilty. He should be here with us. I don’t even know how it will work but we have to find a way.

"I need to tell you something,’’ I manage nervously. Beau said I shouldn’t keep this from him and he is right. All the guilt I have been feeling all weekend. The fact that I was with Gyles and thinking about blue is unfair.

"Right now?’’ he asks with that smile still on his face. This is the moment; I need to be honest with him.

"Yes,’’ I breathe out.

I lead him into my room and he follows me in. the smile is still stuck to his face. I don’t think it will stay there for longer. I am scared about a lot of things and this has become one of the things that I am scared of. Hurting Blue. No matter what I say, he will see this as a betrayal. Especially if he doesn’t feel the same way.

"You are making me worried, what is wrong?’’

I lead him to the bed and he sits down on the edge. The bed is arranged but all the memories I shared with Gyles still lingers.

"Can we not do this right now. let me take you on this date first. I feel like this is going to be bad,’’ he pipes in shakenly. I see the fear in his eyes. I don’t think the best thing to do is avoid this.

He needs to know about this.

I need to tell him.

"Okay,’’ I do the opposite of what I really want to do.

As usual.
