“If care is not taken, your mate will die under your sword,”
“Fuck!” I hissed under my breath.
What Cora the old witch said still ponders on my head, my heart throbs, and I feel troubled. This is confusing, the image of the gorgeous lady in my dream still clouds my head. How can I feel connected to the girl and at the same time my mate might die on my hands, my palms! If care is not taken? I let out a frustrating sigh.
“This is frustrating!”
“How can I have a mate and at the same time feel connected to another girl, a mysterious young girl that I knew nothing about? Yet I find myself drowning in her,”
“This is impossible!…. Is the moon goddess playing tricks on me?”
Different questions clouded my sense of reasoning, but the image of the girl was still stuck in my head since. I have been having a dream about her but yesterday I felt a strange pull towards her which still had me at the edge.
Massaging my jaw, with my eyes shut I pondered on the issues. I relaxed my head a bit in my chair when facing the ceiling. I thrived to know if I could come up with an answer but all seems impossible.
***Knock****
I ignored the sound coming from behind the door, I didn’t need any disturbance. I don’t want anyone adding to my problems, I already have enormous issues at hand now!
Still, the sound continued, annoying the shit out of me. If you didn’t get a response couldn’t you know what that means? The person at the door should know that his or her presence isn’t needed. That is a simple truth, you don’t have to bring my roof down before I could open a door for you.
“Are guards not out there? Why the unnecessary knocks?” I angrily mumbled.
“I will have their heads slashed for not stopping the unnecessary bangs that the useless being at the door was causing,” I threatened.
“Hey, calm down first,” Ethan mumbled.
“Whatever!” I groaned in annoyance. I am in deep thought and with the sounds and everything, it is frustrating and disturbing.
Angrily pushing myself out of the chair, I stroll towards the door. Twisting the handle, I forcefully yanked the door open.
“Who the hell……..” The word got stuck at the tip of my tongue as I stared at my beta more like my best friend standing in front of me with a deadly glare across his face.
“Uhmm…… Liam,” I muttered surprised as that was the only word that seemed to come out of my lips at this moment.
“You…… were the one that has been banging since?” I asked with a doubtful tone.
“Nope, I am the one that was just standing here,” he said in sarcasm with an angry expression. Staring at his mad expression makes the idea of wanting to punish the person at the door with the guard’s heads chopped off vanish into the thin air.
“You can come in,” clearing my throat, I uttered.
“No! You could have left me outside,” he retorts as he rolls his eyes.
“Thinking maybe that’s a good idea,” I said, causing him to stop in his tracks.
“You must be joking,” he glared.
“Maybe, I thought……” shrugging off, I closed the door before walking back and plopping on my chair.
“Dick…..” He teased me.
“Pusssy,” I teased back.
“Oh! But we all know who enjoys it more,” he drawled mischievously.
“You enjoyed it more,” I voiced.
“No, bro…… You do,” he maintains.
“Haha….. You do, bro,” I taunt.
“Fuck you, asshole,” he joked.
“Don’t deny it, buddy,” I laughed.
“You are a pussy eater…… You just ate one yesterday morning, nigga,” he dished.
“Hahaha!!” I let out a laugh, he got me there.
“You can’t go to bed without whore,” he jabs at me with a teasing brow.
“You just got me there, bro,” I said with my voice cracking when forcing myself to control my laugh.
“You see…..” he bragged.
“Don’t get too excited, dear,” I mumbled.
“You that kept banging a whore yesterday and till this morning, disturbing my freaking peace of mind,” I blurted with a mischievous smile.
“That’s a lie……… You just make it up,” he denied.
“I never pictured you as a person that does forget things easily, or am I missing something?” I mumbled sarcastically.
“When you were saying**oh! Baby open it wider and the whore was like please harder…….” I tripped, and seeing his lost face I erupt into a laugh.
“Oh! You stay up all night memorizing all that?” He surprisingly questioned before he spared me a disgusted look.
“You two were so loud that I thought that maybe you two were drunk…….” I paused.
“I was tempted to go and knock at your door because the moaning and screaming were disturbing,” I said the last part in mockery. He stares at me dumbfounded, he wasn’t expecting to hear all this from me.
“You sure gave her a huge orgasm,” I teased.
“Fuck ass nigga,” he jokingly uttered with a poker face.
“You stayed up all night,” he asked surprised.
“Yeah, I couldn’t sleep bro,” I said with a hint of sadness visible in my throat.
“Sorry, I didn’t know that we were that loud to have deprived you of sleep,” he quickly apologized thinking that I couldn’t sleep because of them.
“Not that bro, I had a lot in my head,” I grumbled.
“What’s the issue?” He seems calm and quiet.
“The same dream, over and over again………” I confessed.
“That exact dream again?” He asked with a furrowed brow.
“This time she appears at my every single sleep,” I mumbled.
Liam seemed lost, I sighed as I noticed that he was in deep thought.
“What is he thinking again this time around?” I sighed.
“WAIT!!” He suddenly exclaimed with his eyes going wide, I stared at him with confusion.
“Remember that you told me about you and your mother visiting the old witch Cora down the town,” he uttered.
“Yes,” I shortly replied with drawled lips. Of course, I told him about it, he doesn’t have to remind me. This is not what we are talking about, but this mob head always brings in senseless discussion every single time.
“So tell me how that is an issue?” I questioned with an impatient expression.
“What did she have to say about the dream?”
“And you said that you are going to ask her about your mate, right?”
“So tell me everything,” with his two hands placed under his jaw, he muttered. I let out the tenth sigh if I could still remember the right count because I have sighed a lot within these couple of minutes.
“You stop sighing and answer the damn question,” he complained.
“If you can’t cope with that, then see the exit,” I pointed at the door with a frown.
“Come on! How am I going to leave without having any idea about your way about?” With a poker face, he mumbled.
“Then go find the answers on your own,” I grumbled.
“Oh! Come on, buddy, you know that it is fucking impossible,” he said.
“And what makes it impossible?” My eyelid twitches as I questioned with a tight lip.
“Because I am not the one having the dreams,” he answered back.
“You can’t just give up on something without giving it a try,” I blurted.
“Look! I am not in here for your logic,” he poked.
“What did she say, I mean the witch?” he urged, sensing the way that I am ignoring him. Couldn’t be able to take his annoying pleas and noise for me to tell him, so I spit it out before I knew it.
“Fine!” I loudly groaned before claiming a bit and speaking in a lower tone.
“The visit was meaningless,” I blurted with a hard tone.
“How! Meaningless…..” Liam stares at me in nothing but total confusion.
Swallowing hard, I muttered, “If I knew I couldn’t waste my precious time going there because it didn’t solve my problem rather it added to it…..”
“Look, bro, I am yet to understand where you are coming from,” he claimed.
“What is useless? Or meaningless…… What are you regretting?” He exhorted.
“Everything that she voiced out didn’t make sense to me, she was just speaking out of point. Saying some meaningless and unpredictable stuff,” I snarled.
“I still don’t know how my mother and everyone were able to picture her as a great witch on earth!!” With a distinct frown in between my eyes and a hazardous eye, I screeched.
“Calm down,” Liam kneads my shoulder to calm me a bit.
“What’s wrong, where is confusing you?” With a calmer tone, he questioned.
“She said that I am connected to the girl in my dream!”
“The girl in your dream,” Liam undoubtedly repeats as he exhorts me to speak up.
“That our hearts call for each other that she needs me,” I muttered.
“Funny,” he expressed, earning a deadly glare from me.
“Do you know the confusing and funny part was when I asked her about my mate?” I let out a sad smile.
“So tell me what did she say this time around?” Liam curiously asked.
“That if care is not taken that my mate might die under my sword,” I spit with anger.
“WHAT!!” he unbelievably exclaimed with his hand almost covering half of his mouth.
“This is ridiculous,” he murmured.
I let out a small laugh, it was sad though. I can’t believe that after this year of waiting for my mate that someone could bump out of no way and say such a thing about my mate, the one that the moon goddess has honored me with to die under my sword. How is that even possible? I have always planned to love, cherish, and spoil my mate if I ever get the chance to meet her.
Even if I don’t know how to love, I planned to learn and make our days memorable. Killing her is the last thing that I could ever do in this life.
