Ignoring them, I make one last attempt to rouse a response from my wulf soul companion "You will tell me what happened to our mate Crimson. You will explain why they reacted so violently. Enough secrets. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME!" no answer.
"If you do not I WILL RESORT TO WHATEVER MEANS NECESSARY TO HAVE ANSWERS!" almost at their porch I say the one thing that ignites a response like no other "Alejandro does not deserve this. YOU BETRAYED HIM!!!"
A bellowing wulf spoken roar explodes "NO!!! I WILL NEVER!!" forth from me scattering, with a circular outwards motion, the mist and its phantom inhabitants. In nanoseconds they retreat back into the woods, returning clarity.
Coupled with a sudden wrenching emotional pain gripping me powerfully. Wrenching me into its anguish. So much so, it drops me on the spot to my knees grabbing my chest overwhelmed by........... his shame?
Moisture stings threatening to fall from my eyes against my will.... Crimson. Crimson is doing this. Then he howls "AAAOOOOOOO!" Wave after wave of an emotional turmoil grip me so profound I cannot stop it.
Resonating throughout my entire being, it utterly destroys my anger. Immediately I Grip my own throat as if suffocating, clinging for breath I fall forwards. His pain, his guilt is so overwhelming, my right hand clutches my chest as if I am having a heart attack.
I attempt to stand, but I can't. Tears not my own blur my vision, releasing themselves from my eyes like a small brook, while the strength in my legs fail me and I drop once more to my knees, never reaching the house.
Feeling the sensation in my chest fade to leave me leaning forward, having released my throat, my hands grip the earth beneath it. Ripping away the tufts of grass in their curled grip. My mind reeling at the sole question his reaction caused "What happened to you Crimson?" As if surfacing from beneath the lake, I finally able take in gulps of air. It is then I feel him.
Yet, his energy is not the same. He is defeated somehow, a surge of fear spreads throughout my being causing me to panic beyond any fear I could ever have felt before "Crimson!! Crimson!!!"
Roaring in wulf speak to him. This time, He responds. The voice of a will broken beyond anything I could think of....answers me. "I will tell you everything Reuben, my human soul companion. But you must swear to me.... They.... Our mates... must not know..... For now."
His tone, portrays the trepidation by which he speaks, My wulf is scared. He has never spoken to me this way. He has always been the strong power counterpart of my soul. Yet, speaking to me is a wulf full of fear.
I want to console my wulf, protect him. Nothing else matters. Not the reading, not the answers he is about to share with me or knowing them. Nothing. Just him. For the first time in my life. I fear for my wulf. Whatever his fear is, we will face it together. "I promise bud. I swear I will always be here."
In the moment, I think of sending Joaquina a wulf spoken message but Crimson answers
"I have already informed her, her services will not be necessary. But she has suggested we travel to your homeland. A suggestion made by the spirits. For there are spirits there and forces there which seek our counsel."
his voice still low, submissive, humbled, fearful. What is it that has you so ashamed my wulf companion? What have you been hiding all this time?
"Are you ready my human soul companion?" his only question
"Yes" my only answer, and he begins.
