The Werewolf's Vampire Mate - Chapter 586 - Set An Example

Chapter 586 – Set An Example

Blue 

"I let you leave this house, numerous times. I didn't keep you as a prisoner because I knew that you really didn't belong here and even when you killed me, I still gave you a chance to leave but here you are again. Trying to be the reason for my demise." She walks closer to me, her legs move as she walks closer to me.

I turn to Gyles slightly and he is clutching the book. His hands are shaking in fear. I know that whatever he saw in the room is what caused this new fear. He is terrified of her and I need to protect him in a way that I always should have..

I try to move but my legs are stiff. I can't move. She must have done something to me—yet again. Fuck, how am I supposed to protect him when I can't freaking move my legs?

"Let us go, we will leave and you will never see us again."

That is a lie but at this moment, I will take leaving the coven over our deaths. I need to protect Gyles but I am at the point where I don't know how to.

"Let you go,'' she stops in front of me. There is a smile on her face, almost like she is enjoying this a little too much. I don't know how I will be able to get through to her. I promised Rex that I was going to come back with Gyles. I made that promise with the sole intention of keeping it but how do I do that. How do I fight someone that is always one step ahead and actually win?

"Yes.''

She reaches for my face and raises my chin up "I have always treated you as good as I could. I always saw a big part of myself inside you son. I have always tried to love you like a mother should."

I don't know if she is in denial.

These are just words. Words that are anything but sincere.

She has never been a mother to me. I have never felt an aorta of love from here so I don't even understand what she is saying right now. She has the opportunity to kill me and from all the things I have heard about her—all the things that she has done, I don't have any doubt that she will actually kill me.

"I just realized that as long as you are alive, you will always be a threat to me. You will always try to come back and save the day. You will always try to prove that you are not all those things I said all those times."

I shake my head "I will leave, I will never come back. I will never set foot in the coven again.'' I assure her with all the convincing in my might. I don't know if it is believable because she is my mother and she knows me.

She knows that I hate her.

I tried to kill her, so why should she spare me.

A slow smile sprawls on her face. Her hand is still on my face. The room is suddenly so hot, that sweat starts to fall from my forehead. I am scared because I know that it will take her a second to end my life.

"Meeting your father was the biggest mistake of your life. I should have never allowed you to be part of that life. You became something else after that,'' she lets go of me and I watch as she walks over to Gyles. He is close to me but at this moment, being unable to move, he seems like he is miles away.

I wish I could shield him. Take him away from this mess but he is here and there is nothing that I can do at this moment.

"What do we have here?'' she looks at the book in his grip and I see him clutch unto it tighter. He doesn't want to let go of the book because the book has been the only thing that has been protecting him. It makes me feel even more useless and weak.

"You are the reason why my son thinks he can have a life outside the coven. You are the reason why he thinks he deserves happiness."

My eyes stay fixed on Gyles because I want to do something. I want to help him but I font know what to do. "Maybe the biggest punishment would be to kill you instead, I am sure sparing him then will be worth it."

She reaches for the book and I watch him as he tries to fight her off it. I also notice that his hands are still moving. I can't move mine, maybe it is because of the book. It is somehow giving him strength. Maybe he needs to keep the book in his grasp. Maybe that is the way out of this.

Don't let go of it.

I send him a mind link and he looks up at me immediately. There are tears in his eyes, red and all blotched up. The pain in my heart is enormous. One that I will not be able to reduce for now.

"Stop this, please just let him go. Kill me, kill me instead." I shout to cause a distraction. She turns to me for a second but it is not long "You think I will spare him, a fucking werewolf and kill you, I might be a monster but I still have a conscience. I will not kill you and leave him. I have to kill you both."

She turns back to him and I watch her as she snatches the book from him. My heart shatters as he tries to reach for it but this time, his hands stiffen, just like mine. He is covered in tears, I watch him unable to do anything.

"I will do this the right way. I will show the people of this coven how much of a disgrace you are. I will kill you in front of everyone."

She walks out of the potion room and out of my sight.
