Phoenix the Rising Alpha

77

Roswell's POV:

I can't believe Phoenix is making me chose between him and Blaze, they are both my mate's and choosing one over the other will only make the distance feel even worse, no matter who I chose one will always be in pain. I had waited for my mate for a long time and once Phoenix showed up I was happy I finally got my mate, and after hearing and finding out I had two mates I was even happier, but this right now is not happiness.

Phoenix is right about one thing though. When he was fighting with his self Blaze and I did become extremely close, but not so close that I could choose one over the other. I sighed at Phoenix reasoning, but instead of voicing out that I do not agree with Phoenix, I choose to continue to listen to him talk to Blaze. I also would like to know why he treated Phoenix like he did knowing Phoenix was his mate.

What Blaze gave was what I wasn't expecting. I was shocked I thought he would explain and they would work out their issues and we could finally move passed this, but Blaze's simply I'm sorry left me speechless. I looked at Blaze in shock and then I lookef at Phoenix, what I seen was pain in his eyes and I could feel the hurt coming off him. I'm sure that Blaze can feel it to but for some reason I don't feel anything coming from him.

I sighed this is not how this was supposed to go. Blaze and I talked about this and he said if Phoenix ever asked he would explain to Phoenix and then ask for Phoenix forgiveness, not just apologize and that's it.

"So you think a simple apology makes up for years of pain"? Phoenix gritted out. I tried to link Phoenix and tell him to try and stay calm, but he had blocked me. I sighed knowing he was not only hurt but pi$$ed.

'I do not have a reason, so I can only apologize'. Blaze explained with a little bit of harshness behind his words. I just stared at him trying to figure out why he's acting like an a$$ right now towards Phoenix. It can't be because of what Phoenix said about making me choose between them, but then again maybe it is. I sighed for what felt like the hundredth time this evening.

"You know what never mind". "I should have known you wouldn't answer anything". Phoenix roared out. I watched as Phoenix stood and stormed off pi$$ed. I didn't know if I should run after him or stay and try to find out why the he!! Blaze was doing by not answering Phoenix questions and just gave a simple sorry instead of explaining anything to  Phoenix.

'You can go after Phoenix'. 'I can feel your anxiety and right now I need to be alone'. Blaze said kissing me before he left leaving me speechless.

Yeah we have kissed and cuddled the last few months while Phoenix was fighting his demonds, but this kiss shocked me. It felt as though he was trying to make me choose too.

I sighed and after giving Blaze one finally look I walked away walking in the direction Phoenix had stormed off to. I refuse to choose, but right now Phoenix needs me. I linked my parents and explained to them what had happened.

Blaze and I set up the family gathering so that we could move past all this, yet here I am running off after a very pi$$ed  off and hurt Alpha male while or mate's just sits by and does nothing.

My mother linked me back and told me she had informed Queen Jackson and King Egon (Blaze's parents) and also Alpha Laurent and Luna Larry (Phoenix parents), she said both sets of parents are not happy with how Blaze was handling things with Phoenix. My parents also explained that if Phoenix truly wanted the answers he can get them, but chose to do it in a respectful way by asking Blaze instead of probing Blaze's mind. I nodded agreeing with her because she is right.  I already knew about Phoenix special abilities.

I smiled at the memory of Phoenix explaining to me how he knew what I thinking without using our mate bond link. I was shocked and scared, yet amazed at the same time. As a royal we have special abilities also, but Phoenix abilities fascinates me.

"Stop following me". I heard link gritted out through our link. I ignored him and continued to follow him. He can be upset because I'm following him, but I refuse to stop following him until he sits down and we can talk.

"Go back to Blaze he needs you more than I do". Phoenix gritted out. I chuckled not answering and continued to follow him. I could feel the hurt rolling off if him and waves and I know part if that pain is because Blaze and I had become closer that Blaze and Phoenix, maybe closer than Phoenix and I.  I'm sure he believes that I would choose Blaze over him. But nope not going y o happen. Yes Blaze and I are close but the moment I knew Phoenix was my mate I became obsessed with him.

Just like Blaze and I had kissed Phoenix and we would cuddle and watch movies together. We spent almost all his time in the Alpha Academy either in his room or in mine. We never left each other's side. Come to think of it maybe I am closer to Phoenix thsn I am with Blaze.

I sighed hating this feeling of the unknown coming between us.

'Phoenix can you please stop'? I asked pleadingly. I was getting tired and knew he was too. Suddenly he stopped.  I didn't realize that we had walked for so far. Phoenix stopped in front of his grandparents cabin that lies just at the edge of the pack grounds.

"We can talk and rest here". Phoenix said walking into the cabin. I sighed tiredly.
