Chapter 319: Levine’s visit

Blue.

"Thanks for this,’’ I tell Major calmly. He looks drained from earlier and I feel terrible for all I have asked him. He smiles widely and his perfectly white teeth come into view. With a wink, he slaps my shoulder playfully "I would do it all in a heartbeat.’’

He is flirting again and I don’t even mind it. He knows that I will never return his feelings, so he is only hurting himself. My heart belongs to Gyles and Rex. They are all I want. I walk him out of the house and he stops in front of the door with a flirty smile. His smile is deep and pierces into his eyes. Maybe in another world, we would have actually been an item—a world where he wasn’t a jerk to me.

"What is the plan on locating Levine?’’ he asks me, his expression changing to a serious one.

I haven’t really been thinking about Levine. My whole focus is on getting Rex back to normal so that I can send him back to the community. He being here is just endangering him further. The confinements of the community act as a source of protection. He has been there all his life and nothing happened to him. Just a week out of the community and he has almost died numerous times. I don’t want to be the reason why something will happen to him.

"Levine is obviously in hiding. She wouldn’t want to found right now.’’

He shakes his head in refusal "Levine is not like that, she wouldn’t just do this and disappear,’’ he seems to believe in her a lot. There must be a reason why he trusts her so much when the evidence all points to her.

"We will find her,’’ I try to give her some assurance, even though I don’t believe that it will be that easy.

He nods "I will help you unbind Rex, but you have to promise me that you will not execute her. Give me your word that you will give her a chance.’’

He is trying to bargain with me like I have a say in this. I made a promise with the elders. They gave me a week. One week and then Levine was to be executed. Now, I don’t have Levine anymore. I don’t know how I will explain all that to them. I don’t know if they will believe me. I have five days left, to get Levine back and unbind the Rex from her. Now Major wants me to protect the one person that shouldn’t be given a chance.

"She killed my mother. I can’t protect her.’’

I don’t want to give him empty promises. I know that he has helped me, I know that I owe him a lot for bringing Rex back but I have to avenge my mother’s death. She hasn’t even been buried and he wants me to betray her because of him.

"I know. I am not saying she shouldn’t be punished. I know she ended up working with the wrong person and somehow, she was punished for it."

I am so grateful for all his help but I will not let him manipulate me into thinking I need to do what he wants.

"I can’t promise you anything. I don’t even understand your relationship with her. Why are you so keen on protecting her?’’

He sighs and then runs his hands through his hair. I can see that this is hard for him. He doesn’t trust me too. There is more to it and he is not telling me. Now I don’t feel guilty about not trusting him either.

"I can’t talk about this and I know that you have things that you wouldn’t be able to tell me but I need you to trust me. She is not the monster that you see her as, please just don’t judge her the way they all will here."

I don’t know what to say. I will not make any promises to him. Once Levine is found, judgment will be taken on her like everyone else. She will not be treated any differently just because Major helped me get my mate back.

"I will be back tomorrow with the countermand potion. It might take me a while to get all the ingredients for it."

"How come I haven’t ever heard of this before,’’ I raise a brow in suspicion. I find it really hard to believe that he has all the solutions to our problems.

He smiles and his teeth show "It’s not a typical potion and I don’t think you need to know how I came across it.’’

More secrets.

Things that he doesn’t want to tell me.

"Don’t worry about all that Blue. Just help me with Levine and we will be even.’’

He is trying to blackmail me. It is not going to work. I walk him out of the house and he waves to me as he enters his car. The drive to his house is not long and I am sure he will be home in a couple of minutes. On my way back to the room, I feel a piercing sensation in my head. Slowly stopping in the hallway, I clutch the sides of my head and for a second, I close my eyes and it feels like I am being pulled into someone’s head. At first, all I see is darkness, before a face comes into my head.

Levine’s face.

I know what this is. This is a communication spell. She pulled me into her mind. She is trying to talk to me right now. After deceiving me and killing my mother. I don’t have anything to say to her. I just want her to let go of my mate. I want her not to involve them in this.

I want to be done with all this.

"I am sorry about all this Blue. I didn’t mean for this to happen,’’ she tries to reach for me. This is all in my head. This is basically just her voice in my head. She is forcing this connection.

"I can’t talk to her. It is one-sided. She just wants me to listen to her lies.
