The Werewolf's Vampire Mate
Chapter 89: Untethered

Chapter 89: Untethered

Beau.

’’Jules Is here,’’ Bells walks into the basement and interrupts my discussion with the vampires. It feels like a weight has been lifted off my chest just from her words. I didn’t know how badly I have been waiting for him to show up. With the way things have been going, I kinda expected something bad to happen.

Maybe some reason why he would be unable to make it.

Jules is my last resort. Basically, like the only hope I have. I don’t know what I would do if he is of no help. I know it is a long shot but he is the one person that I truly believe can help me. the only other person that would have been able to handle this is my father and now he is dead.

’’We will continue this discussion,’’ I tell them which just gets a nod from them.

I grab Alanis and we walk out of the room with Bell’s standing guard. I might think it is safe to leave them unchained but I don’t trust them, so I can’t leave them unguarded.

’’This Jules, what is he going to do?’’ Lanis asks me.

I shrug because I actually don’t have a clue. We walk to the house because that is where Bells said he is. Once through the front door, I hear his voice and it is like a flashback moment. I have only seen this man twice in all my life and he has created such an impact in a short time. Father loved him as though he was a brother. I can’t imagine how he will be taking his loss. The moment he notices me, he stands up from the couch and walks over to me. Jules is not a very affectionate person, so this hug surprises me but I don’t fight it as I take him in my arms.

’’I am so sorry about this,’’ he expresses sadly.

’’It’s been a while. I am sorry I didn’t call you to inform you.’’

’’You don’t have to explain. I can’t imagine what you are going through. How strong you are to be doing this on your own. I heard about Fallon. I knew I never liked that bastard.’’

He pulls back from me and I manage a smile. ’’I am not alone, I have so many people by my side,’’ I use this opportunity to introduce him to Lanis. I don’t know how he would feel about the fact that he is a vampire. There was never any talk of vampires whenever he was around. I guess we will find out.

’’This is my mate... I know he is a guy and all but he has been there for me through everything.’’

Lanis comes closer until he is beside me. I can tell he is nervous. Introductions are never easy. There is this line with two sides. Will he be accepted or not. I really hope Jules doesn’t have a problem with this.

’’Wow, you are the first same-sex mate I have ever met. It is an honour,’’ he stretches his hand out and I remember the first time I met him. he did the same thing with me, that same smile plastered on his face.

Looking at him now, he hasn’t really changed. Still freakishly huge, with the same man bun and brown eyes. There are some newly found wrinkles on his face from ageing. Lanis takes his hand in his.

’’Nice to meet you.’’

Jules grins cheekily and a part of me relaxes. He doesn’t seem to be against this. that is a good start.

’’So before we get into this further I can sense that you haven’t done the ritual... why is that?’’

’’The mating ritual?’’

He nods immediately. I notice someone behind seated on the couch. I don’t recognise this person. I guess Jules brought someone with him. I will get to that later.

’’Yes... why are you not linked to him?’’

’’There hasn’t been any time and we missed the first full moon after we found out and then my father died, I got kidnapped,’’ he raises his brow at my revelation, I continue ’’It’s a long story.’’

He sighs ’’You know, that should have been your priority.’’

’’Why?’’

He leads me to the living room and we all take our seats. I see the guy clearly. He is a very handsome man... but very quiet.

’’Do you know dangerous it is to be untethered from your mate? You could be so much stronger. Why would you hold off on that?’’

I realise that he hasn’t mentioned the fact that Lanis is a vampire. Could it be that he hasn’t figured it out?

’’This is different from a normal mating ritual. It is more complicated.’’

’’Because he is a vampire?’’

Okay, scratch that. he knows that he is a vampire. He is a lot more accepting than I thought he would be. My father didn’t even take things as lightly as he is right now.

’’Yes.’’

’’There is a full moon in three days. I want you to complete the ritual then.’’ He announces.

Okay, this is all happening so fast. I can’t think about this with all that is happening. it seems selfish of me to be thinking about my mating when there is so much problem. So much is happening and I need to figure all that out first. I look to Lanis and he has the same expression on his face—panic mixed with fear.

We are not ready for this.

’’That is not why I called to see you.’’

He nods ’’I know why you called to see me. The only way you will be strong enough to defeat Cassius Blade is when you complete the ritual.’’

I should be excited about this. I mean, I have been hoping to complete the ritual for a while now but in three days. I don’t even know what to do. I don’t know what we need. How this is going to happen between two different breeds.

’’There is nothing to it, you need to do this. stop prolonging this because of fear.’’

I am not scared.

’’He could show up... Cassius. There are still bodies that are not even cold yet. I can’t be focused on myself when we haven’t buried them.’’

He nods. ’’Do the burial ceremony tonight. There is no time to be wasting son. You need to prepare for this. Head on.’’

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

’’Is he serious?’’ Lanis asks.

I nod. ’’He never jokes. We have to do this.’’

We are in my room right now, getting ready for the burial ceremony. Everything is happening too fast. Like one minute I was being rescued and the next I am forming a bond with the love of my life.

’’The Elis still need to see you. They haven’t approved this union.’’

I furrow my brows ’’What do you mean they haven’t approved of us. I thought they just wanted to have a formal meeting.’’

He sighs and then runs his hands through his hair ’’I didn’t tell you. Fuck there was no time to mention it but the meeting father had with them didn’t go too well. They said they needed more time to fully research on it. That it might just be a fluke.’’

’’Our link could be a fluke?’’

He nods ’’We do this however way you want. I won’t go against you. Do you want us to do this without their approval?’’

I don’t know what I want.

I want all this to end. I don’t want to have to be the one to make all the decisions. Lanis grabs both of my hands in his. This is affecting him as much as it is me but here, I am being the one that needs comforting again. Can I just fucking catch a break?

’’Look, I think your uncle has a point. What if you could be stronger? The day you got so pissed and attacked Fallon, I saw a part of you that I have never seen. You were amazing. If you could channel that strength and use it in defeating Cassius. We will be rid of him.’’

I nod ’’What are you saying.’’

He smiles ’’I live for you and you alone. Are you scared to do this because you think something will go wrong?’’

He read my mind without even having to.

’’This thing is between us two. It is not just you. We got this.’’

’’Are you saying you want to do this?’’ I have to know. I don’t want to do this when he is not okay with it.

He lives for me—well I live for him and him alone.

’’I want to be able to sleep at night next to you. As long as Cassius is alive, that won’t happen.’’

Cassius.

The cause of all our problems. The reason why I have been broken and bruised. The man that is responsible for all the deaths.

He has to fucking pay.

I will make sure I have his blood in my hands.

If it is the last thing I do.
