Fidelis's POV
Stuck. We were stuck. Stuck between a wall and my angry mate.
How had it managed to escalate that quickly? How did the Alpha, future Alpha and the pack doctor end up in a corner on time-out because of my mate?
I don't know the answer either. I do know that if she is brave enough to stand up against the Alpha, then she is going to be the perfect Luna.
I shook my head of those thoughts. I have to stay focused to find a way out of this situation. Mind-link! Why didn't I think of it before.
'My apologies Alpha. I had forgotten that we could use the mind-link as my mate seems not to be able to."
'Yes. However, lacking in abilities has not hindered her ability to put us in a corner. Quite literally.'
'My apologies again Alpha. I shall take full responsibility and take any punishment that you had wished onto my mate.'
'Nonsense. She is your mate and my daughter. I shall not punish her or you. In fact, I congratulate you for being blessed with such a strong Luna. She will lead the pack wisely.'
'Thank you, Alpha.' We chuckled.
'Now, we must discuss the issue at hand. How will we get out of this situation without having to confess our beliefs to the entire pack?' I shook my head at Alpha and shrugged.
'I'm not entirely sure. Medicus? What do you think?'
'Well, it seems I have an idea.' We all grinned and then began to discuss our plan.
Elizabeth's POV
Oh my peas and carrots! I could hear those three talking but their mouths weren't moving. How does that even happen?
Due to my coincidental obsession with werewolf stories and werewolves in general, I knew that they were most likely using the mind-link to talk. However, what confused me was that I am not a werewolf nor am I in their pack, yet I could still listen in on their conversation.
I shook my head to rid myself of those thoughts. I would just ask Fidelis later.
"Ready to confront the whole pack?" I chuckled because I could still hear all of their thoughts.
Alpha: This is it. Let us do this.
Medicus: Oh, Moon Goddess above, bless us and save us from embarrassment.
Fidelis: Why must I have to lie to my mate in order for our plan to work.
Fidelis's thought troubled me but I forced my frown away and made my face expressionless.
Fidelis sat next to me on the bed and grabbed both my hands in his.
"Mate, I love you so much though We have just met. I will always need you in my life. However, if you embarrass us, the Alpha, future Alpha and the pack medic, in front of the whole pack, they may call a meeting to rule all three of us as unfit leaders. This would lead to our exile and I would never be able to see you again. So please, don't make us do this. Please?"
As soon as he finished his first two sentences, my mind was somewhere else and I didn't pay attention to the rest of his speech. I was too distraught over the fact that he was suppose to lie in order to get what he wants...which means loving me and needing me was a lie.
I looked at Fidelis with cloudy eyes and a heavy heart. I shook my head and stood up, trying to escape the source of my pain. My hand pulled at the cold, metal knob on the door but was held back from leaving.
"Where are you going, Mate?" His voice held worry, concern and a hint of guilt though I didn't care. Not anymore. With my back still turned and tears falling heavily, I shook my head.
"Away." My voice, though but a whisper, was loud in the silent room. I tried to leave again but he held onto my wrist, keeping me from making any further movements.
"Why? Why must you leave me? We are meant to be together forever." He said, his voice holding pain and sadness. I turned around, eyes sore from crying and heart broken. He gasped at my face but I disregarded it.
"I know that you were meant to lie to me. I heard your conversation in the mind-link. I'm not sure how but I did. I wasn't sure what your lies were and I had full intentions of disregarding them and confronting you about it but then you said that you love me. You claimed that you would forever need me. It hurt so much to hear you say that because I knew your plan was to lie to me. I was stupid, foolish and naive to think that having a mate would mean having an eternal partner. Now I see my mistakes and so I think it best for me to leave." I whispered, my voice raspy from holding in sobs.
I turned yet again to leave and this time, he didn't hold me back. I kept walking until I made it to the beginning of the forest. I collapsed underneath a tree and cried. For how long, I'm not sure. My heart ached, my body was numb and my sight was blurred.
All that I could think about was the love that I got a taste of and had ripped away right in front of me. How foolish I had been to believe that love at first sight existed. How foolish.
