The Werewolf's Vampire Mate
Chapter 264: Mixed emotions

Chapter 264: Mixed emotions

Blue.

I see the stab wound on his lower stomach. The difference between him and my mother is the fact that he is healing very fast. The cut doesn’t look as deep as it probably was, from all the blood on his shirt. He is not dead but it feels like he is.

"He is in a sleep state,’’ Badger tells me as I caress his hair softly.

"What are you talking about?’’ I ask him because I have stopped hiding my fears. I have been crying since I saw him on the floor. I keep thinking about him and Rex and what will happen to them. If my mother doesn’t make it, they will want to kill him. I know that I will not let them but that will mean I will have to escape with him. I will have to denounce my title as the heir to the coven. I don’t even want it in the first place but I don’t want to leave this place on a bad note. I don’t want to have to worry about people looking for us and making enemies in the future. No matter what happens, I will stick by Rex and Gyles because I know that he didn’t do this.

Someone must have put a spell on him. That is the only explanation. I know there are people in the coven that wanted her dead. So they would have done anything. I just don’t know why they would use him. They didn’t even know who he was in the first place. He just got here.

Why was he the scapegoat?

"He is a vampire... right?’’ he asks me.

Badger has the willed-sense too. His is not as strong as mine. I guess right now, I am even too emotional to sense anything. My heart is a wreck right now. All the uncertainty going on. I wish they didn’t come here. I don’t want to put the blame on Gyles but he should have listened to me. I can’t even be angry with him right now because he got his punishment.

Why does it seem like you’re the one that is being punished?

My wolf asked me.

I don’t have an answer to that. I just want him to wake up and be better. I just want to take them both back to the community away from all this trouble.

"How can you tell?’’ I ask him.

He smiles "I have known a lot that I didn’t say. I know about you too.’’ He tells me. This surprises me because I thought I kept it all well. Mother didn’t want anyone to know about my werewolf side. She wanted to keep it a secret. She didn’t want the judgment that would come with people knowing. It is not like I even cared but I just listened to her because that is all I do. Obey, obey, and obey.

I wipe the tears from my face "Then you should know that he is my mate?’’ I breathe out, it feels good telling him.

He smiles "What about the other one, the one that stabbed your mother?"

He must sense something too. It is very easy to block out all my emotions. Witches cannot sense witches but right now, my emotions are so strong that I am sure he can read them all clearly.

"He is mine too,’’ I seethe in a way, I am telling him that I won’t let anything happen to him.

He nods his head "That seems very weird though. Having two mates?"

I nod "Yeah, I thought so too but I will do anything for the two of them."

He smiles "I can see that.’’

I close my eyes, trying to block the last two hours out of my head. I don’t know what I can do but I want to know if Badger will help me.

"Analise is strong. Nothing is going to take her away from you,’’ he tries to assure me but I don’t know anymore. I just feel like she has been very reckless lately. I don’t even know how to handle her. I don’t know how to protect her from all these people.

"This time was bad,’’ I find myself crying again. Maybe it feels like this time is worse because my babies are involved. I wish they were never here in the first place. I wish I didn’t have to worry about them, on top of everything else, but it has happened. There is nothing I can do but find a solution so that we can move forward.

"She will not die. As long as she is alive. Your mate won’t have to suffer."

He is basically telling me that Rex’s fate lies in the hands of my mother’s survival rate. I close my eyes again because I don’t know if I can handle that. I have never wished for her to survive as much as I wish now. I hear Badger’s footsteps as he walks out of my room. Slowly opening my eyes, I grab Gyles’s hand in mine. It is cold... very cold. It makes me think he is dead.

"Please wake up Gyles. I need you right now. I am sorry about everything. Sorry for all the things I said." I breathe out my apology and deep down, I know he can hear me.

I know he will be fine.

After a couple of minutes, I walk out of the room and out of the house until I get to the dungeon house, where we keep prisoners. This place has so many perpetrators. People that have been caught after many attempts and to think that Rex—the quietest and most caring guy I have ever met is one of the people here, just has me baffled.

I know that I am going to get him out of here but I don’t know how long he will have to suffer in here. I don’t know who is going to be against me but I will leave everything behind for him.

The guard at the door shakes his head "I have orders not to let anyone in,’’ he tells me. I raise a brow because I already know who is giving him these orders. The elders of the coven. The only people that can make decisions apart from my mother.

"I just need a minute Elias,’’ I plead.

He shakes his head "That man tried to kill the chief. If anything happens, I will be killed.’’ He interjects. I understand him but I also know that I can get through to him.

"The chief is my mother. I know how serious this is but I just need a minute with him.’’

He sighs and then I watch him as he looks at me and to the cage. I can see Rex’s silhouette. He is on the floor. It seems like he is still unconscious. Whatever spell he is on, feels like a strong one. It must have been someone powerful.

"Five minutes,’’ he finally agrees.

He gives me the keys and I walk in slowly. I know he won’t wake up now but I also know that I don’t even want him awake right now. I wish he could sleep all through this. At least until I get him out but I also know that is impossible. His breathing is soft, his eyes are closed. I go on one knee and reach for him, slowly touching his face. He is warm—unlike Gyles. Different temperatures, different situations.

I take a deep breath and reach for my pocket, pulling out a pen.

I just want him to know that he will be okay. I just want him to know that I will protect him and make sure that nothing happens to him.

Rex.

I wake up and I am in unfamiliar territory.

Getting up from the cold hard ground, I look around, wondering why I am here in the first place. Wondering what the hell happened last night. Why did I fall asleep in Blue’s bed and wake up in a cell-looking cage?

I walk to the cage and hold onto the railings confused right now.

This is the second time in the span of two days that I can’t remember anything. I don’t know what is going on but it seems like something big. Like I am in some sort of trouble.

"Hello,’’ I shout to get the attention of the man by the door. He looks at me but turns around so fast like he didn’t even hear me. I sigh loudly because I am getting scared. Scared of what is going to happen to me. I go back to the corner and sit back down on the floor, resting my head on the floor. I can’t imagine what I could have done that landed me in this cell.

I wonder what happened to Blue and Gyles.

I just hope they are okay.

I don’t know what makes me look at my hand but I see the writing on my palm and I know it is him instantly.

I will get you out of this.

Trust me.
