Human

Thirty-One

"King James?" Ethan spoke and loosened his grip on Bella. Realization hit everyones faces and they all bowed slightly. "Your majesty, what do owe this sudden visit to." Sally spoke, clearly surprised also.

"Luna Sally, you look like you haven't aged at all." He smiled at the woman "I'm here to discuss business with your son.. about our mate." Ethan growled on instinct.

"Our mate?! She's mine!" Atlas growled too and pulled Bella in his arms. "Okay will you stop tugging on me?!" She glared at them.

"Bella, what does he mean our mate?" Ethan demanded. She took a deep breath "I have two mates. And I have to choose between them." The room went deadly silent, all you could hear was Ethans panting.

"H-how?" He croaked out. Is she here just to reject me? "I don't know, Ethan. I'm here to discuss this with the both of you, so we can make the decision together." She spoke sadly and felt her heart break.

But somehow, as much as it hurt her to think of it, she knew who she belonged to.

Just then, the door burst open and Emma, Jake and Tyler all ran in panting. Emma froze and looked over to Ethan, as he froze and looked at her also.

While they were looking at each other, Bella felt her and Ethans bond fade little by little until it was gone completely. What is going on?!

"Mine." He whispered and in a flash had her pinned against the wall. Sally and everyone else in the room besides Atlas looked shocked and threw Bella pitiful looks while a smile started crawling up her face.

"The problem is solved! I felt our mate bond fade and I feel no pain when they kiss!" Bella was basically jumping out of joy.

Sallys jaw dropped "B-but how?" Ethan shrugged, "Let's just go with it ma."

"That means I get to have you all to myself." Atlas murmured into Bellas ear. Ethan and Emma were beaming and were smiling from ear to ear.

"Wait I have to say bye to my dad and get my clothes!" Her father was in another pack but it didn't matter since it wasn't that long of a drive.

"He's in Florida." Julian spoke for the first time. Bellas eyes snapped towards him. He had his arm around Emilys waist and she was pressed tightly to his side with a small smile on her face.

"Congrats on finding your mate Bells.. again." Bella chuckled and shook her head. "You always knew how to make things awkward."

"Take care Bells. Don't forget to visit." I nodded. "I need to go get my stuff from Ethans room." She said and looked at Atlas who released a small growl and narrowed his eyes at her.

"Fine." She tugged at his arm and med him to Ethans room. The room she used to stay at. The room she was kidnapped from.

"This would've been hot if it wasn't another mans room." Atlas complained. "You look cute right now." She said smiling at him.

"I'm not cute. It's not manly. I'm handsome." He said flexing and puckering up his lips with a frown on his face.

"I know right. You're so hot I want you to bend me over this desk an-" she was interrupted by his loud growl.

"Don't ever say that again. I'm holding onto the last bits of control I have." She looked at him with sincere eyes.

"Well maybe I don't want you to control yourself." She breathed. He took a step away from her. "Don't. Don't say anything else. Wait till we get back home." She nodded and went to Ethans closet, where a small suitcase stood.

"You need to pay Ethan back for the suitcase I'm taking." She yelled out from the closet as she put in some of her favorite clothes.

He laughed "Sure baby." And left the money on the table while she was still packing. Lastly, she took a framed picture of her and her mom when Bella was born, and put it in the suitcase along with a small photo album that held pictures of her, Emily, Jake, Emma and Tyler.

"I'm ready." She announced as she zipped up the suitcase. He came into the closet and took the suitcase, carrying it downstairs with ease.

"Bye guys. I'll miss you a lot." Her heart ached for her friends that she spent her life with. "I guess this is where we all take different paths." Emma said.

"Promise you'll visit." Jake looked at the two girls in warning. They nodded. Jake and Tyler then turned to Atlas. "Oh, and please don't hide her from the sun and disconnect her from the world." Tyler started.

"To keep her safe and all blah blah." Jake rolled his eyes. Atlas laughed "I won't, I promise. You are all free to visit anytime you want." He said, "It's time to go." She hugged her friends one last time and went out the door with Atlas by her side. They got to the car, she turned and waved one last time before climbing into the Range Rover.

I know I was supposed to update on Friday but I just couldn't wait what do you think?
