Wasted Chances (boyxboy/manxman) [SK series]

Chapter 10

*Silas's P.O.V*

My lips parted, but no words could escape. I know someday we would find each other yet I'd selfishly hoped I could live my life without the past coming back to haunt me. I didn't know how he felt either, was he mad at me? Sad, despondent, happy? Would he understand why I left?

But I think we were all quite surprised as tears welled up in his eyes and he squeaked out a name that brought back memories.

"Papa!"

I looked down in shame, I didn't deserve his pain or longing, his real father was a stranger to us both yet I feel like I've let him down. I never even got the chance to tell him what happened that night, never told him the truth. I had left after he grew fangs and learned to survive with them, hunting but not killing.

Instinctively I took a step towards him, my hand reaching out. A hand came out of nowhere and smacked mind away.

"You don't get to touch him."

The female vampire snarled at me angrily, standing in a protective stance in front of the boy I'd lost. I nodded respectfully, he wasn't mine anymore , he found someone. I'm glad.

My shoulder felt a supporting squeeze from Mark who had moved to my side and I smiled weakly in appreciation. He was OK like I'd predicted, maybe a little shocked but unharmed nonetheless.

"What the hell! Let me through, !"

Vivian, the female vampire, had trapped Sebastian, my son, behind her so he couldn't get to me. Despite his efforts, he remained caged in her grasp. He huffed behind her, giving up with an angry glare.

"We only came back to return the mutt, remember? Just because he's here doesn't mean we lose track of things. We're going home. Now."

Clearly not, was the impression I got when Sebastian stomped his foot and stubbornly crossed his arms to signify that he wasn't going anywhere. It reminded me when he used to be stubborn when he was put to bed when he was younger, he never did unless I was there until he fell asleep.

"Just cause we've been together for a while doesn't mean you're my mom. Now move out of my way so I can get to my real parent."

Ouch

Hurt exploded on her face like a firework but it went as quick as it came, I guess she had grown a lot more attached than he did. In a sense he had a lot more growing up to do to make up for...then

Solemnly nodding, she used her vampire speed to whizz off leaving me, Mark and my son. "I'll leave you two to sort things out," followed by the door closing left two people in the room. I turned to face my son and speak when my head suddenly snapped to the side with a small crack sound. That was...expected I suppose. I slowly brought my face back, rubbing my jaw where a bruise was sure to be. Sebastian had his arm raised to go in for another go when I restrained his arm.

He could hit me as much as he wanted later, right now I had some long overdue news to pass on and my boy had a choice to make. "Let go off me you b*st*rd. You've earned yourself at least a few more," he gritted out through clenched teeth, his eyes watering.

I felt my own eyes begin to sting but bawling right now would only delay what needed to be said. "You can beat me all you want later, for now I need to set things straight with you once and for all. But before I do tell you please remember that I loved you with all my heart and still do. Nothing will change the fact that you are my boy. My son "

*Mark's P.O.V*

As soon as the door clicked shut behind me, I heard the unmistakable sound of someone's face being slammed to the side. Unmistakable and very, very painful. But right now I had my own issues to sort out, not violent ones of course, I had been gone for a while now from my mate and the distance has driven me crazy. I needed him.
