finishâ pain from the backlash sounded clearly in his voice, I stopped only because I didnât know what else to do and the fact that the backlash had also affected me and my body was vibrating with pain. He knelt in front of me and took my face in his hands and looked me directly in the eye. âJust because I didnât want these things doesnât mean I wonât tryâ
âWhat are you saying?â I ask.
âI am willing to see where this leadsâ he replied stealing a kiss. I relax enough to allow him to enfold me in his arms until I remember what else I had to tell him, he must have felt me stiffen in his arms as he moved away and looked at me and frowned. I sat back on my heels to put some space between us.
âthey took Kathâ I said as he nodded in agreement âand recently my brother has got back in touch with meâ he remained silent as I told him about his plans to take over Joshâs coven and that Alex was responsible for all the attacks. Josh was silent but I could see the anger in his eyes as he watched me. I took a breath before I continued,
âHe knows how to take my abilities from me, he wants me to cooperate but I think heâll kill me eventually anyway. He threatened Kath, he threatened my life, and he gave me a deadline and its up in about 4 daysâ I finished and sat in silence. Josh didnât say anything I could see the fury and disappointment flicker across his usual stony face. He stood walked over to the door and shout for Raul. He slammed the door and looked down at me as I was still kneeling on the floor.
Before I could speak Raul had entered taking in the situation with a glance.
âRaul take her homeâ he barked.
âWhat!â I yelled as I shot to my feet. âYouâre just going to dismiss as if Iâm nothing?â
âYou kept vital information from me, I am responsible for many vampires and humans and yet you let me waste time with you when we are under threatâ his voice was steady and even.
âSo thatâs it?â I asked him.
Josh rushed as me âyou are lucky that is all I am doing. I would punish anyone else severally for withholding information from meâ he whispered in my ear. He then allowed his fangs to descend and grabbed my arms holding me in place. He looked at my neck focusing on Alexâs bite. He pulled me even closer and lowered his head. I held myself as still as possible as not to provoke him, I felt his tongue on my neck then the sting of his bite, I expected it to hurt like when my brother had bittern me, not to be pleasurable again. To be honest I donât think that it was his intension I think he meant to hurt me. I felt his grip loosen and him readying to pull away, I lifted my arms holding his head to my neck and his body closer to me with the other. I felt him tighten his hold around me as I became weaker; Josh was the only thing that was keeping me on my feet. His teeth left my neck and I felt his tongue sweep across the puncher marks. He scooped me up and carried me to his sofa to lay me down. Once he put me down he hovered over me looking into my eyes which I was having trouble keeping open.
âWhat about us?â I whispered and tried to lift my hand to touch him but Joshâs feeding had left me to weak to do even that.
âI was willing to try I wasâ he said âyou have hidden information from me that has caused me to endanger my coven. I cannot trust you Sarah.â he said sadly stroking my cheek. âI acknowledge you as my life mate and we are bonded by your blood and our bodyâ he stood âbut I will not finish the bond you are free to live your life and marry, have children, this omission of yours has changed everything endangered my family, Iâm not willing to pay your asking price or anyone elseâsâ at that he left and my heart broke. Josh left the room; as soon as I heard the door slam I allowed the tears to run freely. Raul came into my line of sight and held my face in his hand reminding me of how gently Joshua had held me moments earlier causing me to turn my head away from him.
âIâm sorry Sarah but we need to get you out of here.â he said a bent to lift me up into his arms cradling me against his chest. I closed my eyes and let Raul take my body home, my mind closed down and my heart remained with him.
Chapter 10
I woke in my own room I must have slept the whole way home as I donât remember the journey back apart from voices and Raul strapping me into a car but nothing else. I still had on my clothes so I quickly showered and dressed in simple jeans and t-shirt I made my way down stairs with a heavy heart. I threw myself into an arm chair and went over everything from yesterday rerunning it, doing things differently but it bought me no peace. Tears slowly tracked down my face as my heart ached for something I could never have.
âSarahâ I heard said from the door way when I turned to look it was Raul.
âWhat you doing here?â I asked.
âI was owed some time offâ he came and took the seat opposite me.
âNow cut the bullshit and tell me why youâre hereâ I replied.
âI knew you wouldnât believe that and I told him soâ he sighed with a small tired smile across his lips.
âJosh sent youâ I stated.
âNo. but I asked him if I could stay with you and he said yesâ shrugging his huge shoulders.
âWhy?â I asked I was confused.
âDo you remember the conversation we had about matesâ he asked and I nodded.
âIts never as straight forward as we like to believe it to be. You believed that Kath was mineâ I nodded again agreement unsure where this was leading.
âSo did I but I now know I was picking up on your emotions, when I released that you and Joshua had been intimate I shouldnât have not cared but I was jealous. I wanted to rip his head off.â his complete focus was on me.
âI thought life mates were fate, destiny meant to beâ I asked.
âIt is with a true pairâ he sighed and sat forward to make his point. âKath is not my true mate she feels like it because she shares your blood and Iâm drawn to her. But my blood sings to yoursâ
âYouâre wrong.â
âNo Iâm notâ he said simply.
âNo no no noâ my voiced raised at every negative. Raul rushed to me and fastened his lips to mine and cut off my protests. As far a kisses went it was good firm but gentle. It didnât hold any of the passion and belonging that I had felt when I had made love to Joshua. I pushed him away but it was like moving a brick wall, I concentrated and thread a little of my kinetic power through my arms and pushed again using it to added more power to my push. Raul was moved back this time and let me go to sit back opposite me.
âNoâ I said again more firmly âJoshua touch is completely different to yours he is all consuming, my power goes ballistic when his near, I need him like I need to breathâ he started to protest âyouâ I continued âare safe protective and my friend. I can think when as you kiss me I could still control myself, and all I thought about was him.â I sat back in the chair and kept my eyes locked on him.
To my shock he leaned back and smiled back at me âI told him that toâ he paused and turned serious again. âJoshua has been alone along time, he doesnât trust easily. You have endanger all that he holds dear and everyone that relies on him through selfish actionsâ I opened my mouth to protest but kept silent as the truth sunk in. â what has made it worse Sarahâ Raul said regaining my attention. âIs that you and he are bonded he now is shut off to other options because he has taken your body and blood to complete the bond you need to take his. You can choose another if you so wishedâ
âSo what the bloody hell was you doing justâ I asked out raged, âwith the kissing and stuff?â
âHe is stubborn as hell. But he wants you happy and asked me to for fill that role and I owed it to him to at least try.â
âBy finding me a replacementâ I yelled.
âWhat I said is true I do feel a connection to you. But knowing what has happened between you both I would never act on it and Iâm happy with Kath.â he finished and sat back waiting for me to catch up.
â thank you I think.â we both fell into a comfortable silence tears had run down my cheek without even my knowledge until Raul handed me a hand chief that he
