Chapter 38: Seeing the past

Alanis

"What did you see El?"

El is driving us back home to meet with Father. I have been pestering him to tell me what he saw, I am sure now that Beau isn’t here, he might open up to me.

He sighs for the umpteenth time today "Look, what I saw has already happened. I didn’t see the future," he exclaims and I furrow my brows because he has never seen the past before.

"Is that possible?"

He shrugs and I watch as he turns the steering "It has never happened before," he explains "But it is possible."

"What did you see?"

We are almost home; he looks away from the road for a second and I see pain in his eyes. Whatever he saw must have been terrible. The fact that he doesn’t want Beau to know makes it even more terrifying. How will I be able to handle whatever he saw?

I will have ti share it with my link. He will have to know whatever it is. I am thinking far ahead. Different thoughts are running through my head, this is what I do, i over think things. I don’t know anything yet but I am already in panic mode.

"I will show you," we get to the house and fathers’ car is in the driveway. I know what he means by this. He has the ability to show his thoughts, I could see what is in his head if he grants me access. Do I really want to see whatever he saw?

I don’t know.

El parks in his spot in the garage and we all walk into the car. Darrien has been very quiet "You okay?" I ask him.

He rolls his eyes and walks away from me "We are not friends," he leaves my view and I sigh because nothing has changed between us. I thought with this we could find a middle ground and grow a bond. I thought he would open up to me a little.

"Come meet me before you go back," El says as we get into the living room.

Everyone is already seated and they seem to be engrossed in their conversation. They all stop talking when they notice us and father manages a smile "We’ve all been waiting for you,"

I manage a nod and walk deeper into the room. I take a seat on an empty part of the couch and Elu smiles at me. Her hair is up in a messy bun. "How was your visit?"

He smiles "It was great, we have a lot to discuss. I informed them of the threat Cassius is to the wolves and they are sending a team over to haunt him down,"

"When?"

He shrugs "It is supposed to be immediate as of today. They are sending their best hunters with the expectation that Cassius is captured before he does any more harm."

"I heard he paid a visit earlier today," he asks.

I nod "He almost killed one of them. Darrien was a big help," I look at him and he looks away from me immediately. I don’t know what his problem is right now but I can’t deal with him right now.

"Good, we need to help them as much as we can. We can’t have a war between our kinds right now. Those things never end well," he lays emphasis.

"I spoke to the Eli’s about your link. There is a lot of controversy to it. The approval they gave me over the phone has been reverted," he informs me.

I crease my brows in confusion "What do you mean by that?"

He sighs "This is bigger than we understand, this is the first time this has happened. They need to understand it before they accept it. Give them some time,’ he tells me like he even has a clue how hard this is for me. I have to wait until they are okay with me being with him. What kind of bullshit is that?

No one has a right to tell me when to fucking be one with him. I choose the time to put the link together. This is unfair.

"When will this be okay for them, how long do I have to wait for some people I don’t even fucking know to tell me it’s okay to love him?"

I am getting angry and everyone can tell. Mother is the closest to me and I feel her hand as it rests on my shoulder. She is trying to calm me down. I can’t be calm right now. What do I tell Beau? He wants this to happen immediately and now we have to do some more waiting.

Fuck.

"Just relax, they will get back to us."

"And what if they say no?" I stand up in an attempt to seem more powerful. Father doesn’t flinch. He raises a brow in a,sit down before I beat your ass way.

I take a couple of deep breaths "We will cross that bridge when we get there."

I laugh because this is ridiculous "I am not going to go with their decision. I will do this my way because I love that man and I want to become one with him. I don’t care about anything else," I warn them.

"Stop being so irrational, you need to think with your head and not your fucking heart. This whole Link with a wolf is ridiculous. What if it is a mistake? Are you sure you can even survive his mating process?"

He is trying to inflict fear into my head, if I die trying to mate with Beau then I would die a happy man. Nothing is going to stop this from happening. This is the only thing I want; it is all I live for.

"I won’t die. This is not a mistake, it is real. It is different and people don’t want to accept different. Different isn’t always a bad thing. Different could be good," I tell him.

"We are on your side," mother chimes and I look at her sadly. I can see her sincerity in her eyes.

"I know, I just need everyone to understand that this isn’t something that just happened. This is real, this is my life," I tell her.

She nods and stands up to be closer to me "We know that, we accept you. Your father is just trying to say that whatever decision the Eli comes up with doesn’t affect what you do. We will cross the bridge of disapproval if we have to. We will be on your side," she places her palm on my face and I close my eyes because I am scared.

I might act tough.

I might act like I have the faintest clue of the future, but I am still scared. The thought that I could lose him clouds my head all the time. I don’t want to think about that because I know I would fight till my dying breath to be with him but there are people out there that want to destroy us and all that we are.

****************

"You need to take It easy on them. This is very confusing and father is trying to wrap his head around it. Everyone is trying to wrap their heads around it," El tells me as we walk into his room together. we ended the meeting peacefully. I am not satisfied with everything that was said but I won’t fight anyone yet.

I will give them the time they are asking for and if the Eli’s refuse to let this Link continue, I will sever my relationship with them. I will do anything to become a part of Beau, no matter what anyone says.

"I am trying my best, all this back and forth is pissing me the fuck off."

He sighs "I understand you but understand things from everyone else. I know how you feel, I have a link. I can’t imagine my life without Elu, she is all I live for but at the end of the day, we are still your family and we will always be on your side. We just have to do this at our own pace."

He is trying to rationalize everything father has said but I am conflicted. I love father, he saved me at a time when I had no one and I will always be indebted to him but the love I have for Beau is stronger than the love I have for myself. I would do anything for him, even forsaking my kind.

"What did you see?" I change the topic because I am done talking about it.

"Are you sure you want to see this?" he is watching me. There is doubt in his tone, he is scared to show me this but if it involves Beau then I need to see it. i need to know. No matter what he thinks, no matter how much it might hurt him.

"Yes."

He walks until he is in front of me and grabs both of mine in his grip. He holds my hand "I am sorry that this is coming from me," he tells me. i feel the shock before I can respond and somehow, I am being pulled into his head. It is like electricity and I feel everything before I see it.

I am in a graveyard.

I am not alone.

I see a man and he is kneeling on the ground. He seems to be crying, I don’t know who he is. I move closer and hear his words "Loraine?"

"What should I do?"

I don’t know who Loraine is but I assume she is his wife as I read the words on the tombstone. i watch him break down unsure as to why El is showing me this. "I need you now." he cries and my heart breaks at how pained he sounds.

I hear footsteps which makes me turn to the direction of it and I see him immediately. This is Beau’s uncle. The one that seems to hate him. The man on the ground doesn’t seem to have noticed him. Fallon is just watching; he doesn’t move any closer. There is a look on his face that is scaring me at this moment because I have my suspicions as to what is about to happen. Suddenly I know who the man is, this is Beau’s father. This is before he was killed.

Shit.

I look back at Beau’s father and he tries to stand up, I watch him as he struggles and falls to his knees again. His expression shows that he is in pain, I try to reach out for him before the realization that I cannot do anything hits me.

Shit.

Fallon walks until he is near him and smiles. Beau’s father reaches for him "Help me brother?" he pleads.

I watch him laugh and anger seeps through me at how vile this man is. He must have done something to him, what did he do to him?

"What did you do to me?" he cries.

My heart breaks.

I know what is coming next, I don’t want to see it but somehow, I am compelled to.

"I am really sorry for this brother," he grabs the man on the ground and I can’t do anything to stop this. This has already happened. This man died in the hands of his own blood and for what?

Rex already suspected this.

How do I break this to Beau, how do I tell him that the only blood relative he has murdered his father in cold blood?

Fuck.
