We walked down the stairs of the basement, laughing at a story he told me about his brothers and the Alpha playing tricks on the Elders. They were very mischievous in their youth. "It's about time. Where have y'all been?" Jonathan was standing by a old looking stove with a apron on and his hand on his hips. I couldn't help but giggle at his demeaner. Marcus chuckled behind me, "Sorry Jonathan we were ummm....busy." I blushed beside him.
Jonathan eyes narrowed as he sniffed the air. He shook his head and laughed. "Well someone couldn't wait til the ascension, now could they?" He had turned and grabbed a big soup pot and poured it into a claw bath tub. As I looked around the room I noticed the vials on a table, each with a description. On the wall next to the stove there was a locked cabinet. The shelves were cluttered with herbs and different types materials.
On the opposite wall was a desk cluttered with notebooks, papers and books. "What do you do here?" I asked while walking towards the desk. "Ancient Rituals, Lycanology? What are these?" Jonathan walked over and opened Lycanology. "This book has diagrams about our skeletal system, nervous system, organs stuff like that. Now you see this area right here." He pointed to a spot right between the shoulder blades of a werewolf. "If you press hard enough it can paralyze your opponent for a few seconds. Giving you enough time to run or finish him off."
He grinned, "Whichever you prefer of course. Ancient Rituals, is how I discovered what Emilio was thinking. In this paragraph it mentions that during the ascension, you can change the fates and choose your own mate but the person has to be willing. It can't be performed if the person is marked by their true mate. This next paragraph states that if the true mate is no longer living then during the ascension they could take another mate." I frowned at that, looking towards Marcus.
He turned and led me towards the tub. "Now the concoction is ready. Just lower yourself and stay in there for at least 30 minutes. You will feel a tingling sensation all over your skin, don't worry its normal." He walked over to the table and grabbed a vial and motioned to Marcus to follow him. "Well I'm going to leave you to it. Oh I almost forgot don't dry yourself off. There is a dryer by my desk. Terence will be waiting for you in the kitchen. Marcus come with me."
Marcus turned to me with a smile on his face. "After this I won't be able to be around you but I will be close. I won't leave you to fend for yourself. Don't worry this will be all over before you know it." I smiled at him he knew exactly what was running through my mind. He hugged me tight and then kissed me lightly. He turned and walked up the stairs, halfway up he stopped to look back at me. I bit my lip and blushed at the suggestion in his eyes. He then winked and ran up the stairs.
I smiled and turned towards the bathtub, I noticed for the first time the smell surrounding the large tub. Lilacs? Shrugging my shoulders I started to strip my clothes off and folding them putting them on the stool by the tub. I dipped my toe in to test the temperature, warm. I slid the rest of my body in and the tingling sensation started. It wasn't uncomfortable it felt like a massage.

°°Marcus P.O.V°°
"You know I should have known you couldn't resist." Jonathan looked at him with his arms folded across his chest. "We specifically told you not to bed her. I know she is your mate Marcus but you need to think of someone other then yourself. I don't know how well my concoction works with mated wolves." He huffed and kept walking up the stairs.
I wasn't fixing to explain how she wanted me too. I couldn't resist her. One day he will know exactly how it felt. "I wasn't thinking. It's like I couldn't control myself." I smirked. We reached his bedroom. He turned so fast and grabbed me by my neck. "Not a good enough excuse! Stop being selfish this is your mate. Her life is in our hands and if that obstacle has dire consequences it would be her suffering. Her aunt is pregnant. She is merely human her body can't protect the fetus like femme wolves bodies can. Think of that next time."
I looked away ashamed. He was right there is no excuse. "I'm sorry Jonathan. You're right that's no excuse." Jonathan rolled his eyes and pushed me towards the bathroom. Filling the tub and pouring the vile into it. "Same instructions don't dry off with a towel use the hair dryer. I will meet you by the clearing in a hour we have to look for our best placing for the advantage." I nodded climbing into the tub. I was being selfish and that just made me feel even worse now.
