Roswell's POV:

I ran through the Academy trying to get Phoenix to listen to me but he wouldn't stand still long for me to one, apologize for letting Maxwell kiss me, and two, explain to him that I was shocked that Maxwell would kiss me that's why I didn't respond right away.

'Why are you yelling'? I heard my father growl out, asking me why I'm yelling. I sighed stop chasing my mate to answer my father.

'I'm chasing Phoenix'. I replied.

'Why'? My mother asked me.

'Maxwell kissed me and Phoenix walked in my room just in time to see it's. 'I was so shocked I didn't respond right away and I think Phoenix believes I wanted Max to kiss me or that I kissed Max back'. I explained breathlessly.

'Oh, now'. I heard my mother say. I stared at her a little confused.

'Kyrie, Phoenix has Larry's gift'. My mother explained to my father.

'Oh, sh*t'. My father said causing me to become more confused. I arched an eye brow at my parents waiting for them to explain to me what just happened.

'You have a lot to apologize for son'. My father said patting me on my shoulder, walking in a different direction while he shook his head.

'Apologize for what though'? I asked out loud, to no one in particular.

'Well let's just say your mate doesn't need to be marked to hear your thoughts'. My mother said walking in the same direction as my father. I sighed heavily and stared at my parents for a few minutes before walking in the direction Phoenix had ran in.

'What have you done to my son's? Alpha Laurent growled out shaking the Academy violently.

'Beast calm down'. 'I can guaranteed that Roswell did nothing wrong'. 'Well almost nothing, but in all fairness he was shocked'. I heard Luna Larry say as he wrapped his arms around Alpha Laurent in attempt to calm him down. I just stood in front of them confused.

'He kissed another boy'. Alpha Laurent growled out shaking the steps we were standing next to. I heard Luna Larry sigh before he spoke again.

'Laurent my love, Phoenix has my gift'. Luna Larry said calmly.

'Oh'. Alpha Laurent said calming down as Luna Larry's words sunk into him. I stood in front of both of them still confused.

'Mate is special'. Midnight said. I nodded my head agreeing with him. The moment I laid my eyes on my mate I knew he was special I just didn't know how special.

'Answer me'. I heard Alpha Laurent say bringing me out of my thoughts if my mate, my Phoenix.

'I'm sorry I was lost in thought'. 'Can you repeat your question Alpha'? I said, asking him. The last thing I wanted to do was disrespect my mate's parents especially Alpha Laurent, my parents have a lot of respect for him and knowing how little my parents respect others, than proves both Alpha Laurent and Luna Larry are important wolves

'I asked you, if you have any feelings for your friend Maxwell'? Alpha Laurent asked me gritting out Max name. I shook my head no but thought it'd be better to answer him instead.

'No'. 'Max is just my best friend'. 'I have waited since I shifted for my mate'. I replied honestly. I watched as he nodded his head but didn't say anything else.

'Do you know about Phoenix gift's'? Luna Larry asked me. I shook my head no. We hadn't really talked about anything personal yet as we are getting to know each other.

'I'm, we are just getting to know each other first'. 'The only things I know about Phoenix is that he has a mate back home, who is here right now with the Vampire King and Queen, and that he wishes for a mate to love him for him and not because he is the last born son of Luna Larry and Alpha Laurent BlackStone, which of course they are you two'. I replied honestly. Then decided to continue to explain to my mate's parents how I feel.

'Like I said before I had waited since I shifted for my mate'. 'I didn't want anyone else and still don't'. 'My mother and father both explained to me the importance of a mate and I took their words seriously'. 'Yes Max kissed me, but I was so shocked that I didn't respond in time, that's when Phoenix walked in'. 'I promised to never hurt him and that I would never lie to him'. 'I'm sorry for doing both, but I never saw Max as anything other than my friend'. I told them honestly.

'Roswell I believe you'. 'Remember when I said Phoenix has my gift'? Luna Larry said, then asked me. I nodded my head remember what he had said earlier. I heard him sigh, stare at Alpha Laurent then turned his attention back on me after Alpha Laurent nodded his head.

'Roswell, like I said before Phoenix inherited one of my gifts'. 'One that I do not wish upon anyone, but the gift in it self does help to catch lier's. 'Unfortunately my son, our son (Luna Larry pointed between Alpha Laurent and his self) Phoenix hasn't had a chance to learn how to prevent the gift he inherited from disturbing his head'. Luna Larry finished explaining.

'What my Larry was trying to say is'. 'Phoenix can unintentionally read thoughts'. 'Meaning he heard either yours or Maxwell's thoughts when he walked into your room while you were kissing, sorry being kissed'. Alpha Laurent explained sternly. I nodded my head unable to find any words to say as his words sunk into my head.

'Oh'. I said realizing that Phoenix must have heard Maxwell's thoughts. That explains why my mate had Max held against the wall angrily.

'Do you understand now'? Luna Larry asked me, most likely already knowing the answer to his own question. I nodded my head yes as my reply.

'Find mate'. 'Must find mate'. Midnight kept saying.

'Excuse me', Alpha, Luna I need to go find my mate'. I told them walking away.

'Now you understand why mate was mad'. Midnight said. I sighed heavily, unintentionally I hurt my mate because of someone else's thoughts and actions.

'I will make it up to mate'. I told him sternly.
