The Werewolf's Vampire Mate -
Chapter 517: Selfishness
Chapter 517: Selfishness
Blue
I walk away from him, even though there is pain in his eyes. I have to be strict right now. Maybe if I am cold towards him, he will let this go. I know Gyles, I know the things he can do, and giving in most times is not one of those things.
Thoughts run through his head and he acts on those thoughts. Right now, he is in a heroic mood. He wants to save them.
I don’t even know if this is even something good. They are in the book. I know that the book is bad.
So, he thinks that they are in need of saving but this is all part of their plan to lure him back?
He is not even thinking about that.
I walk into the room and close the door with a loud bang. I am fuming right now. I need to breathe before I completely lose it all. I rest my back on the door as I think of the way to handle this. Saying no to Gyles just sounds like control. He will take this as me trying to control him and that is not my intention. I just want him to be safe and the only way we can be safe is by staying in the community. I have to be counter to him and that means saying no. He will feel hurt but it has to be done.
I stay quiet as I walk over to the bed and sit down on it. The door opens and Rex walks in. He is hesitant but comes closer to me "Can we talk?’’ he asks.
I nod.
I know what he is going to say. I know that he doesn’t support the way I reacted. I don’t even support what I did.
"I know what you want to say. Fuck, I know but I don’t want to go back to that place.’’ I confess.
He nods "Neither do I.’’
"Then talk some sense into him, there is no need to go back there. We are only going to be looking for trouble."
"Trouble came looking for him. You can’t just expect him to move on from it all after the things he saw.’’
Rex is trying to be reasonable. But it doesn’t help.
"What? Isn’t he trying to let this go? What is all this ’boom boom boom’ bullshit?’ I demand. I feel like the world is spinning and I don’t know what to make of it all.
Rex looks at me, and at this point, I am feeling that he does not want to argue and I don’t want to argue either.
"Anyone who would go back there must be insane. I think he has lost his fucking mind.’’
I am being a jerk now and maybe I can’t help myself.
I have never been this pissed before. I know he is right and he is trying to be reasonable but I don’t even want to hear it. I just want him to go back out there and talk some sense into our mate.
"Gyles is stubborn. No one can just talk sense into him. He will do what he wants and all he wants is our support. Can you at least give him that? You don’t think it is a good idea to go back to the coven, then give him a reason. Don’t just tell him that he can’t go because it is dangerous. Prove to him that there is no need to go back.’’
Find a reason?
I fucking gave him a reason.
My mother will kill us.
She is fucking insane.

"Dad,’’ I press the phone into my ear "I need your help. I need to figure out what the hell is going on in the coven.’’
"How?"
"I need to talk to a powerful witch. I don’t know who to ask. Can you help me?"
"I’ll see what I can do.’’ he ends the call and I know it might be a long shot but this time, I am not going to the coven blindly. This is me being selfish. This is me not wanting to face that part of my life and Gyles cannot even see it.
Why do I always have to do what6 is good for them. Why can’t I do what is good for me?
I walk out of the room and out of the house because I need some space. Gyles is outside but the front porch steps. He looks up immediately and I see the dread on his face. I didn’t want to have this confrontation right now. I wanted to fix things first but I can’t just walk away and act like I didn’t see him, especially since he is looking at me with those beautiful eyes. I walk over to him and take a seat next to him on the steps.
He looks away from me and I watch him as he picks at his fingernails nervously.
"You think I am selfish, don’t you?’’
"You don’t want to know what I think.’’
Gyles looks at me for a moment and then he sighs "Alright, I was wrong when I said that, I am trying to make you understand where I am coming from. I just wish you would support me no matter what.’’
"Isn’t that what I have been doing all along?"
He shrugs and I see the confusion on his face "You said we were going to fix things with the book and the coven but you want to act like it never happened.’’
He might be right.
You can’t blame me for wanting to forget about everything. Everything I know about my so-called mother. How she didn’t even want me, how she killed her sister and her parents. I don’t want to go back to that part of my life and it seems like he doesn’t want to think about this from my side.
At this point, I don’t know the right things to say or do. I don’t know how I can plead with him to let this go.
I don’t know anymore.
