The Werewolf's Vampire Mate

Chapter 271: The conclusion

Blue.

"Tell us why you brought Wolves into our sanctuary,’’ Rand asks me, it almost feels like he is scolding me. Blaming me for what happened. I want to shout to them that the person responsible for all this is probably someone in the community. I wish they would see that this doesn’t have anything to do with the wolves.

I am one of the fucking wolves.

"I wanted to introduce them to my mother,’’ I tell them even though that is pretty much a lie. I don’t want them to know that they came here on their own. I need them to look as innocent as possible.

"Did you get approval for this, knowing how we all feel about the wolves?’’

I close my eyes. They are acting like I am not one of THE WOLVES that they are talking about. They should just banish me if this is how they really feel. This is not the first time that this has happened to her. I mean, the only reason why I came back home is because she was poisoned. They didn’t hold a meeting because it wasn’t done by a wolf. Now that wolves are involved. They are taking things seriously.

Maybe this is the reason.

"He didn’t hurt her. This is not on him.’’ I tell them, unable to control the pitch of my voice. There is so much anger inside me. I am angry at the world right now, and the only people that can make me feel better are all in trouble.

How do I save them with all this anger inside me?

"What do you mean?" Magnus asks. He is the only one that is curious about this.

"Do not believe the boy Magnus. He will say anything to get the wolf out of this." Aggie speaks up. She is the scariest looking one of the bunch. Her hair is packed up in a bun, it is a dark grey unlike Magnus, and her eyes are grey with gold flecks in them. I have never seen her smile in all my life in the coven. I don’t even think she ever smiles.

"Well we didn’t bring him here to crucify him, we have to hear his side on things,’’ Magnus interjects calmly, his eyes are still on me. He is the only one that wants to listen to me. He is the only one that is not hammering on the fact that they are wolves. I don’t want them to focus on that. I want them to accept things with a clear vision. "Tell us what you think Blue,’’ he adds.

Not the way things always have been in this coven.

"She was poisoned a couple of days ago, that is why I came back home. Rex wasn’t here then. He is not the instigator of this attack.’’

He nods "Do you have any leads?’’

I shake my head "I was looking into it. Someone must have put a spell on him. There must have been some form of magic involved in this. We should check him properly, see what could have caused the hypnosis."

They are all watching me and the only one that has a semblance of belief in his eyes is Magnus and maybe Rand.

"Do you know the implications of what you are saying?’’ Minerva, one of the women speaks up. She is the youngest out of the bunch.

I nod because I have been thinking about it for a while, wondering if it could be possible. The only kind of magic that they could have used. The one that shouldn’t even be used in the coven.

"Yes."

She shakes her head and faces Magnus "The boy doesn’t know what he is saying. It is impossible.’’ She directs her denial at him.

Yeah, there is a possibility that I am just clouded by all the hurt from everything that has happened but they have to see things the way they really are. Rex has no reason to kill the leader of the coven. He is my mate. I know him a lot more than I even know my mother or the people in this estate. When I look into his eyes, I am connected to him. I feel the things he feels, I sense what he senses and there is no way he would want to kill my mother.

"Do you know the implications of what you are saying? This is a very great allegation.’’

I nod again "Rex was bewitched.’’ I decide. I am one hundred percent sure about that. He doesn’t remember what happened. He passed out immediately after and he is not the kind of person that would do something like that. I wish they would all just believe me.

"The only way that would be possible is with the use of dark magic. Are you telling me someone in the coven performed that kind of unacceptable magic?"

I nod.

Dark magic is prohibited. We were never even taught that kind of magic growing up. The only way people know that kind of magic is by learning it on their own.

Magnus stands up from his chair. He is dressed in a long robe. His hair is flowing over his shoulders. Right now, he looks very intimidating "Can you get to the bottom of this?’’ he asks me. I am the worst person to leave this to. All I care about is getting Rex out of this mess.

"I don’t know. I just know that we have the wrong guy,’’ I assure him. Rex is innocent.

"Your mother might die, she might not. Will you take on her place until it is decided?’’ she asks me.

This is everything I wanted. I wanted this power because I want to be able to protect him. "I am a wolf. You all know this. Are you saying you will accept me with my Lycan side?’’ I ask.

My eyes move, stopping on each of them for seconds. I want to see how they feel about this. Do they really accept this or is this just a way to push this to someone else?

"We know. You are the sole heir. The only son of Analise and that is what her mother would want.’’

I close my eyes for a second because there is no doubt in my mind. I need to do this. I need to protect them.

"Do you accept my mates?’’ I ask.

"It is not up to us. You must remain loyal to the coven."

I don’t know what that means but I will always be loyal to my mates. They are all I live for. They are the only ones that are important.

"I plan on protecting Rex.’’

Magnus nods "We are fine with that but you have to get the culprit. There must be salvage for sparing him."

I nod.

I will do all it takes to protect them.
