TRAHERN (boyxboy)

Chapter Two

I find myself pacing like a crazed man trying to find the courage to speak with Finis. For the past few days I have tried to convince myself that I need his help. Everyday that goes by I lose a bit more of the tight control I have over my wolf. Just knowing that its mate is ever close is making him crazy and my wolf is all pure raw animal. I am terrified that if I were to lose control we would consume Nachton until there was nothing left of him and right now I can barely speak two words to him while in his presence.

I am hiding in my room at the pack house beginning to wear a path in my floor from all of my pacing when I suddenly stop in my tracks shocked as upon one of my turns in my pacing, Finis suddenly materializes in my room. Something I will never get used to no matter how many times I have seen him do it.

I take in a deep sigh in an attempt to calm myself. He walks over towards me and stops right in front of me. His left hand is reaching out towards my chest. That's all he can really reach as I am pretty much the largest member of the pack.

As I look down upon his face, I am disturbed by the fact that he seems to be in a trance like state. He eyes are not really focused on me. I stay still because I have no real clue what is going on with him and setting him off can sometimes be disastrous as he is still learning to control all of his gifts.

Before I can say a word Finis states while his glowing fingertips are but an inch from my heart, "I sense great turmoil deep within you and it is festering in your soul like an old wound. Your heart is calling out to me for help. Without it you will truly never be free." He focuses his gaze up to my face and whispers, "Let me help you!" Just as he is about to graze my chest with his glowing fingertips the door to my room crashes open and instantly the moment is gone.

I see Finis shake himself out of what ever that was going on with him. I look down to his hand and notice it is no longer glowing. I look over towards my door and see my very pissed off future alpha, Magnus, looking at us as he growls out, "What are you doing in Trahern's room?" Oh the look on Finis' face is priceless as he growls out right back, "Oh I know that YOU are not talking to me like that." Yeah, that Magnus is not too bright. I love the fact that since he started training, Finis is starting to show some sass.

"Baby, come on, you know it does not look good for you to be in the Gamma's room all by yourself.", he says with a sheepish look on his face. "Do you really think it's a good idea to piss me off right now. Hmmmmm, Magnus! What exactly did YOU think was going on? I mean, I am YOUR mate and Nachton is HIS mate!", he states pointing to me.

"Do you really think I care what anyone else thinks by now. With everything going, knowing that although I do not need one, Trahern by his birthright as a Gamma, is my protector. Tell me Mag, then why would I not be alone in his room with him."

I look over at my alpha and friend and try not to laugh because this tiny little omega, his true mate, has just put him in his place. There is no room for jealously with a true mated couple. It is a wasted emotion. Now that they are mated, they can only exist for the other. There is no room for anyone else and that concept is what drives me to want to strive to be a better version of myself so that I may one day claim my mate.

"Apologize!", is said in a very quiet yet determined voice by Finis. I hear a sigh coming from him as he resigns himself to the fact that he was wrong and must now make amends to his mate. "I am sorry baby! I trust you with my soul you know that. I'm just not used to all the new changes we are still going through since the curse was lifted."

Imagine my surprise when Finis responds with, "Not to me you moron. Apologize to Trahern." "Why would I do that?" Now this is the part when you know that the Chosen One is good and pissed off. Things are starting to float around my room in a swirling circle around us. He still has not gotten a grasp on how to control his powers when his emotions come into play.

Oh, but this is new...he is also levitating off the floor! Oh my, Magnus is in for it now. "Well, you see my love, for starters, you pretty much called into question the integrity of your Gamma. I find that an insult, don't you?" He looks right at me and since I am a much smarter man than my alpha, I absolutely agree with him.

Magnus must get nervous at this point because he then says, "Okay, okay baby you are right. Trahern I apologize for jumping to conclusions that are ludicrous and unfounded. I am sorry for barging into your room unannounced."

That must have appeased Finis because all you hear next is the loud crash of everything that was floating in my room as most of the objects shatter upon impact with the floor. He looks a bit embarrassed as he gracefully floats down to the floor. He lifts his hands and they glow a light blue color as he mends all that was broken and in the blink of an eye, everything is back in it's place and my room looks like nothing ever happened.

"I accept your apology!", I say to Magnus as I dip my head slightly towards him. Finis turns towards me and I hear in my head, "We will talk again much sooner that you expect so be ready. I want nothing more than to help you obtain your goals so that you can make my best friend happy."

I bow my head in deference to the most powerful being I know. He smiles at me and then reaches out to his soul mate. The smile he graces my alpha with reduces him to a pup. He is so whipped. He follows his omega mindlessly and as they close the door behind them I hear, "So what did you say to Trahern?" "It is for his ears only Mag. If or when he is ready, he will let you in on some or maybe all of his secrets but for now, trust in me" "Okay, baby. I love you!" I hear Finis giggle so who knows what Magnus did to make him do that.

Then it dawns on me, with the words that Finis says to Magnus, he knows, everything. Oh Goddess, he knows!
