The Mix

Mr Cunning

"Who may you be?"

A nearly as attractive guy as Chase turned around in his swivel chair.

"Phoenix Fox."

"Chase why is she here?"

"Um dad she's hopefully my soon to be girlfriend."

"Great son but why's she in my house in my living room"

He raised his voice slightly and I could see rage light inside Chase.

"Because I love her and I want you to know her."

HOLLY SHIT DID HE JUST DROP THE L BOMB! Yay! Or not? I'll figure it out later.

"Fine... How are you? Who's your parents etcetera. then leave this  room so I may be in peace."

"My parents. I've never met them but ones a royal and the others a hunter. I don't know there names and good bye then sir."

I turned and began to strut out of the room pissed off by his rudeness. Chase is usually well mannered. Must get it from his mum.

"Wait did you say your a mix?"

I turned around and answered with a snarky voice.

"Not that you overly care but yes I am."

Chase shot me a be careful look. I shot him a I don't care look.

"I'm sorry for my impoliteness sit, please."

I sat unsure about his change of mind. Chase sat next to me and relaxed into the couch. He slung an arm around me lazily. Emily sat next to chase relaxed as well. Does this mean he likes me? Am I in?

"So are you hunter or royal?"

"Neither I'm a mix."

"Huh. You know that puts you in a very dangerous position. Why didn't you tell me about her earlier Chase?"

"I did but you said such things don't concern you."

Feeling the tension his mother piped up.

"Jayden, I didn't hear about it till then so their school must be good at hiding it from media and such but that doesn't mean other royal family's don't know."

His mother said more to her husband than to anyone else.

"You will be the last. They won't allow you to have children. It's too dangerous. They'll probably fake an accident and kill you or maybe the council has given you a chance?"

"I don't know what you mean? What or who's the council? Why does I matter if I'm a mix? And i dont wanna die."

"Phoenix there's something you probably are unaware of but should be. I can't tell you exactly what happened but you are not the first mix. The last one grew strong, too strong. His powers were so strong he could kill you by just looking at you since he had telepathy, a trait that runs in my family's line and the neighbouring kingdom's. They were unsure of which he came from. He turned evil none the less and killed millions. He's also what started the war between royals and hunters. The council are a powerful few who try to make the correct choices for the future of our race's and kingdoms. Even if at the expense of a few life's here and there."

"I can do that."

"You can do what?"

"The mind thing I killed a girl in hunter training. With my mind."

I said it so quite I wasn't sure if they had heard but when I looked up at Mr Cunning he was horrified and scared. I glanced at Emily she was was worse than him. Physically shaking. She looked at me like I was a monster. A monster. Me? Then I turned to chase. He looked at them and saw the fear in there eyes then he turned to me.

"Look into my eyes I know your a good person and I know you wouldn't hurt me or my family. I'm not scared. You did what you must. Calm down I'll protect you. You'll be okay."

He wrapped me in his arms. Then he picked me up and carried me out. His parents just sat there unmoving and silent. He whispers calming things to me while he puts me in the limo. I realise I'm crying and that he carried me like a baby. Wait why am I crying. Oh that's right I was just told I'm in danger and I am a threat to this world. Also my future boyfriends family is terrified of me. Really the worst part is there might be people waiting to kill me around every corner but hey at least I know Chase loves me. Small joy among big problems.
