The Werewolf's Vampire Mate - Chapter 621 - Meeting The Ex

Chapter 621 – Meeting The Ex

Jabi

"Why?'' 

He is so confused and I don't even have the answer to his question.

Why do I want to meet his ex-girlfriend? 

I am opening a chapter of our lives that is touchy. It is obvious that there are still lingering feelings when it comes to her and he feels a lot of guilt. Darrien might seem like an insensitive person. Like he could care less about the feelings of other people but he does and he cares too much right now. 

This is the most I have seen him care about anyone—except me of course. 

Maybe we need to have a conversation with this woman. Let her know that there is no chance. He left her without a word, in the middle of the night and suddenly, he went back to her. Granted, it was to help me but he could have looked for another witch. Why did it have to be her? 

He has opened a can of worms and I need to dispose of it because this will always linger in our relationship and I can't have that. 

"Can't I?'' 

He shakes his head immediately but he is still holding me tightly. Now even more than before, like he is scared to let go of me in the midst of our conversation "I don't think it is a good idea.'' 

"Why?'' 

"Amber is not someone that you want to invite into our lives.'' 

"But you invited her already, didn't you?'' 

He sighs "I had no choice." 

"I get that, but I think I should meet her. Maybe if she sees that I am real, maybe she would move on.''

He scoffs "Amber is not the kind of person to just leave things be." 

"She could have changed. I mean, she helped you when you needed her. What if she is a different person.'' 

"And what if she isn't?''

I can sense the fear in his eyes and maybe he has every right to be afraid. He would know her better than me but from all he has told me, it doesn't seem like she wants to hurt him. It sounds like she really cares about him. 

Basically, the reason he broke up with her was because she tried to control him. Tried to keep him for herself. 

"Baby, I get that you want to control the situation but you shouldn't have to. I will not have anything to do with her. I made that clear the last time we had a conversation." he lets go of me and grabs my hands in his. 

"Please just let me do this. You said she came to you in the car, which means that she can come to us here. So we wouldn't have to meet in person.' 

"It would be a connection. I would be letting her inside me." 

He looks hella guilty right now. He has done that twice already. Yeah, he did it once for me and the other time because of our family. I can't fault him for using any means to protect the ones he love but he is blaming himself. He might not say it but I can feel the guilt and it is eating him up. 

"I will be here with you. You don't have to feel guilty about it.'' 

He looks away from me. 

This is hard for him. 

"I promise, this will make things better,'' I lean forward and plant a soft kiss on his right temple, he closes his eyes as I plant more kisses on his face. He didn't tell me about this but I can feel it. He might not have to use his words but I feel it. This is the solution to the Amber dilemma. 

"I will have to call her.''

I nod. 

"She might not agree to this." 

I nod again "You just have to try. If she doesn't want to meet me, I will let this go." I assure him. 

Deep down, he knows that she is going to agree to this. 

"Okay,'' he agrees finally. This time, I can feel him accepting it. He doesn't want to do this but he is doing this because of me and in the end, this will make things better. 

"I need to get my phone,'' he grabs me by my waist and places me on the bed gently. I watch him as he walks out of the room and into the living room. Slowly, I stand up from the bed and walk out of the room. He is standing near the couch staring at his phone intently. 

"Do you think it is too early to call?''

I shake my head "I am sure she is awake,'' I manage an encouraging smile. He is nervous. I get that. This is weird. I am asking to meet his ex-girlfriend but I feel like this is the only way he can completely move on from her—the only way that SHE can move on from him. The moment, she sees that I am real, she will let go of this. 

At least there is just this part of me that feels that way. 

I just hope I am not wrong. 

He presses the phone to his ear and I see his hands shake as he waits for her to answer the call. I hear the click and then her voice from where I am standing. I am far away from him but my senses are heightened at this moment. Maybe it is curiosity, I just want to know who she is. 

"Darrien,'' his voice echoes through the room. There is surprise mixed with a hint of excitement. 

He is looking at me as he speaks to her. I watch him as he tells her that I want to meet her. I know she must be confused but I hear her as she agrees to it. Her voice is calm, with a lot of tension. 

"Yes, you can. I let you in.'' Darrien mutters, still looking at me.

I watch as a bubble starts to form. I watch as she appears in front of me. The moment I see her, and all her beauty, jealousy kicks in. 

She is gorgeous.
