Um I have no idea what is going on with Wattpad but the font on here is differ-NEVER MIND and it is not wanting to save my work. I guess I'm just going to have to roll with it. Weird, as soon as I saved it, the font went back to normal. Weirdest shit I've seen on here.

Mathew's P.O.V.

Without a doubt, I did not forget what Aurora's mother told me. There was not way that I could have forgotten it. My mate. My precocious mate. Her life was in danger. There was no way in hell that I was going to let her fight him, but now, now I'm sure as hell not allowing it. I will die before that happens. Leaving our room I throw on a grey t-shirt and walker down a few hallways before my feet met the stairs. My hand slid against the oak stair case, it felt flawless. 

Not a single scratch can be seen or felt. My mind forces me to wander else where while my feet remember where to go, like they have a mind of their own. I end up in the kitchen. The light shines everywhere, not one object in the room is untouched by the light. It instantly puts me in a better mood. I was hoping that if I kept myself busy-physically doing something, I wouldn't have to think of telling her. I wouldn't have to throw more stress onto her. But that doesn't happen; instead, its the complete opposite.

More and more. Deeper and deeper. I allow myself to plunge farther into my thoughts. A chuckle seeps from my lips. I have to tell her. Knowing good and damn well if I don't, things could take a turn for the worst. That was the thing, I have to tell my mate. I don't want to though. God! No one in their right minds would want to have to tell their mate this! But if I don't. My imagination gets the best of be, demanding that I think of every worst scenario that could ever happen. Then one thought hits me harder than a man ever could. What if-what if she dies? A lump forms in my throat, just the thought of hit kills me.

That alone pressures me into telling her. It was all made up, my mind was made up as soon as this thought crossed my mind. Sighing deeply, I walk over to the island and grab something-anything from the fruit bowl. I didn't care what it was I just wanted something. My lips turn upwards into the slightest smile, satisfied as soon as I see what I snagged. An apple.

I decided the quicker I get this done, the better my chances are of thinking about what we could do to stop him. I jog up the stairs, skipping the part where I run my hand over the oak stair case. Hurriedly, my long legs take me down a few hallways before my face almost clashes with our door. I take a deep breath, letting it out slow before my hand embraces the door nob. Twisting it I push the door open only to be face to face with a startled Aurora.

"Oh! Uh.." She steps to the side to let me in. I quickly do so. Aurora was about to leave but I grabbed her wrist almost greed-like. She stops and turns around. I pause thinking of what I wanted to say to her. I knew what I wanted to say to her. Well, more like had to say to her. The words I wanted to say, I found them hard to come out. Opening my mouth to say something she raises an eye brow. My mouth immediately closes. Well shit.

Aurora sighs because of how long it is taking me to say something. Finally, a word falls out of my mouth.
"Look. I uh..I wanted to tell you that uh.." And just like that my words have completely disappeared. What in the hell is wrong with me? Why can't I just tell her?

"Matthew, what is it?" She asks me, the tone in her voice clearly showing she was growing quite impatient. Another sigh escapes my lips.

"I just need to tell you something." I say.

"Well...?"She drags on. All I could do was look at her, I slowly swallow the spit that is in my mouth, making a very noticeable gulp. Those eyes, those beautiful eyes.

"Look, I don't have all day. Just wait till later to tell me." She kisses me on the lips and walks out of the room not making a sound. And just like that I was left there to stand in the room alone and ashamed. What was so hard about that? Why could I get it out? I chuckle darkly at my own stupidity. Shaking my head I walk out of the room thinking of just how I was going to tell her. Certainly I wouldn't make myself look like a fool again. At least, I hope not. Lets hope.
