If Conner had fallen in the mine and ended up injured, would you be apologizing to him? Or would you be making fun of him for falling into a hole?
That is different-
No, it isnt. We arent going to do this to each other, Sion. We are not going to live our lives blaming ourselves when the other gets hurt. You died Sion. You died because you left your pack for me. That is way worse than the wound on my back.
Do you want me to-
You were right beside me. I should have held onto you. I should have-
You should be treating me like you would the others. If Logan fell, if Kai fell you should be treating me like that. You wouldnt be blaming yourself. Especially if they were just wounded. Im hurt, not dead. In fact, I can walk- I tried to move out of his arms, but his fingers locked around me.
He growled slightly and I snapped my defiant gaze up at him.
I brought you to my pack to give you a better life. I wanted you to see what it was like to be part of a pack. To be my family. Instead, you had to run away from my pack. You have been in constant danger.
J***t I looked into his hazel eyes that were focused on me. I have found my family with you. I have you. Ive bonded with your officers. I found my own officers. I cant think of a more epic bonding experience. Once we have the Chance pack back everything will be perfect. Everything has happened the way it was supposed to. Even your death.. has made you stronger. It has made us stronger.
Sion… we arent normal humans. We dont live suburban neighborhood full of regular people.
You dont have a 9 to 5 job. That isnt our life. We are fighters. We have both killed before. Im going to fight. Im going to get hurt sometimes. You cant blame yourself when it happens, but you can be there to take care of me.
Im sorry, Clover. I dont want to be that guy. I dont mean to. After. since I have changed, I feel even more protective and possessive over you. I think-I think it is because I need you on a level that probably isnt healthy, My very sanity is attached to your well-being. I know that isnt healthy but that is just how it is now. Maybe you had the right idea Its too late running away from me the first time.
For you now. You are mine. This dark protective, possessive love is your responsibillity now.
Well, save the dark stuff for the bedroom.
I listened as he chuckled lightly. I know that he has been struggling with his darkness. Something happened when he became Anubis, and it enhanced the battle he already had. He now could control himself better when I was by his side. I think to a certain extent, this was how it was for all mates. It was just more extreme for Sion.
I love all of you, Sion. Even the darkness that you fear, but you dont have to worry about that when I am with you. Ill protect you, Sion… even from yourself.
His feet slowly shuffled to a stop as he stared at me. Then slowly he dipped his head down, tenderly taking my l!ps with his own. I felt the sparks and the sweet heat of his l!ps. It was like his touch was medicine to my soul. No one else existed there were no problems in the world… it was just us. If only it could really be like this.
“Welcome to the Nova pack..”I heard Nadines voice awaken me from the magical cloud I was on with Sion. “Luna, meet your pack.”
I stared in front of me, but I didnt see anything. I glanced up at Sion, seeing his brows pinched together.
“Cloaked? How? Why?” I heard Gia ask from behind me.
“We dont have a lot of trust for others,” Nadine said with a small shrug. “And like l said… the Nova pack isnt your normal pack. She nodded her head at Sion in the direction in front of her. “Well?”
I wish I werent in so much pain. I wanted to relish this moment of meeting others who were originally from the Chaos pack. We walked forward, and the world began to change. I was looking at nothing but dense woods one second and the next a modern looking community. There were stores, maintained roads, and houses in the distance.
I heard a bellow in the distance and could see various shape shifters fighting against a monstrous looking creature.
If l recall, they were called a Wyrm, it was a dragon without wings and legs. I felt Sion pause and glare in that direction.
“Oh, that… it is just a sparring session… he is harmless.
It is a big scaly pet.” Nadine said, motioning for us to follow her. Demetri moved back so that he was now walking beside Sion and me. Sions eyes moved to him and then back forward as someone hastily approached.
“Im here. Let me see the wound” An older woman said as she hiked her sleeves up over her arms. She was short and stout, looking very no-nonsense.
“This is one of our healers, Suzetta. She is a witch who has dryad in her lineage. She is the most experienced healer here and I trust her completely.” Nadine added as the woman approached me.
“Oh yes, you are definitely going to need patching up.”
Suzettas eyes moved over to Conner and Gia as she clicked her tongue. “You two are lucky to be alive. Okay bring 5 them.”
Sion stayed with me the whole time during the healing process. He growled and protested greatly when they asked him to set me down. He was like a child that had his candy taken from him. He insisted they could tend to me while in his arms. Finally, he relented, but he wasnt leaving my side.
He held my hand and watched me with a predatory intensity.
I was surprised that the healing process was quite painless. I didnt feel anything. Suzetta and another healer sprinkled something over my back. They said some sort of spell and then repeated the process. It was only an hour later when they finally told me the healing was complete. They brought me new clothes and left me to change.
Sion was still treating me like my back was gashed open. He insisted on dressing me and his eyes flickered to mine with every movement.
“Are you sure you are alright?” Sion asked as he helped me to my feet.
“Sion, it is like nothing happened. I feel fine.” I interlaced my fingers with his as we stepped out of the room.
We were in a small medical facility. They put me in one room and Gia was taken to another room.
“Your friend is still being healed, but you are free to go.
Your companions are waiting for you just outside.” A young woman said from behind a desk. “It is great to finally meet you, Luna.” The woman said and I gave her a small smile. I didnt know any of them. It was hard to feel like their leader.
As we approached the door, I could hear loud voices. Sions arm came around me protectively as we slowly opened it.
