Hades

My mind was reeling. Not only was Addie my mate, but Silas' as well. And the Witch Queen. Ordained by her birthright.

How could this happen? Why would she be mated to two different men from two different species who were so vastly different? Silas didn't deserve Addie. He treated her worse than shit. How could they even be considered a match?

Thinking back to Addie's nightmares, I cannot fathom how someone could treat their mate the way Silas had treated her. It was absolutely disgusting and spoke to an insanity in the Vampire King that made him feel more dangerous. More unpredictable. I could see the way he looked at her in those nightmares, and had she stayed any longer, he may very well have bound her to him. His lustful gaze raking her body alluded to as much. Thankfully his fucking misplaced pride had held him back.

Fury rushes through me, and I bristle as my Lycan pushes forward, my claws elongating and biting into my palm as they pierce the skin.

I wonder if he knew who Addie was. How important she was to her kind. He was cruel and a fucking asshole, but he wasn't stupid.

"You're bleeding." I didn't realize Addie had returned. After Merabel left to consult with the covens and see if they would be willing to travel here to speak with us, Addie excused herself, disappearing to the privacy of the bathroom.

I could hear her thoughts and the chaos that the revelations had created. If it was a blow for me, it was even worse for her. I would know.

The fact that a mate bond of sorts had been created through a dream meant I could feel everything she did. I wish I could have made this better, but I couldn't change her past. I could be there for her now. Protect her. Care for her like she always should have been.

"It's nothing." I reign my Lycan in, the cuts on my hands already healing, before turning to face her.

Fuck, she is beautiful. I still cannot get over how blessed I was to have not only one but two mates who are just so beyond gorgeous, they are almost unreal.

Her green eyes flit from my face to the objects around her as if she were nervous. Then her eyes drift to the picture of me and Drea before her gaze drops again.

I need to get to know Addie properly, but I cannot do it here in a place filled with another woman's memories. It wasn't just impacting me, it was affecting her as well. The tight constriction of her chest every time she looked at the picture was too acute to ignore. So I made a decision. One that I think would help both of us move forward. It was time for me to let go of the past, and I hoped that Addie would start trusting me by doing that.

"Will you go somewhere with me?" Her gaze snaps up, and she nods after a couple of seconds.

I lead her to the car, and a moment passes between us as I offer her my hand to help her in.

"Try to trust me, Addie." Her eyes remain glued to mine, and then she nods, and I cannot help the smile that spreads across my face.

The drive to our destination only takes ten minutes. During that time, Addie relaxes, as if the further away from the house we get, the more at ease she becomes.

"Have you always lived here?" Her question surprises me. She has never asked me about my life. Not that the curiosity hadn't been there—I could feel it. But the fact that she felt like she could ask me made my heart expand a little—the feeling so foreign I couldn't place it. Pride? Hope? Whatever it was, I liked it.
