Bind Me

they're here

Levi's POV

"Is his offer paramount to your survival?" Dad asked, stepping towards Lila.

She exhaled and shrugged. "Alarix is talking to him now." She explained.

"What did he offer?" I queried, leaning my chin on Elias's shoulder.

"Queen Lila has a nice sound to it, don't you think?" She lifted her brow and hooked her finger on her chin.

"He offered you the throne after implying you could take another mate?" I snorted.

King or not, his morals are problematic. Bonds are sacred. It doesn't matter who is bonded together; all bonds are sacred.

My bond with Elias is just as strong as if I was bonded with a wolf. Goddess forbid if he ever died, I would never take another mate... I couldn't. There is no way in hell Lila would.

She shook her head, holding her hands in front of her. "That was all Natalia's solution. The King pointed out." She sighed.

I glanced around realizing Natalia had vanished. "And of course, she's fled." I groaned.

"Lila, let's finish this discussion in my office. Mindlink Alarix, get him to bring the king too." Dad set his hand on her shoulder and smiled at her.

Lila's eyes misted over before she nodded. "They'll meet us inside." She remarked.

Dad turned towards Elias and me, "Levi, Elias, check the borders. Make sure all is as it should be." He required.

I linked my fingers through Elias's and moved next to him. "Who is on border patrol?" I asked.

"Um... Malcolm on the north, Davie on the west, Amy on the east and Jax on the south." Uncle Wade replied. I nodded and pulled Elias towards the door.

"So, do you think the king is sincere about his offer?" Elias questioned as we made our way to the border.

"Maybe, I mean, he constantly mentioned something about Alarix being king." I countered.

"Do you reckon she'll accept it?" He asked.

"I don't know. She definitely has all the qualities of a Queen." I chuckled. "If she goes... I'll never see her." I groaned.

He stopped walking and turned to face me. "Of course, you'll see her." He chuckled, holding his hands on my face. "Even if she moved to a different planet, she would still be there for you."

I've never been away from Lila; she's always been around. Whenever I need her, no matter what it is for or the time of day, she's always there. If she's in France, she won't be here... I won't have my best friend by my side.

"She will always be on the end of the phone, and there's this really cool thing called an aeroplane." He smirked. "She'll always be there for you, baby."

I rolled my eyes and snickered. "Yeah... I know you're right." I groaned.

He curled his arms around my back and tugged me against him. He beamed at me and laughed.

"Haven't you realized yet?" He smiled. "I'm always right." He winked.

"Yeah... You keep telling yourself that." I smirked. I leaned forward, planting my lips on his.

"Come on, my little sorceress." I grinned, pulling away. He beamed at me before we continued our way to the border.

I sighed, linking my arm through Elias's. "I love this time of year... It's going to snow anytime now." I inhaled, leaning my head on his arm.
