Chapter 410: Alone again
Blue
I look at them and suddenly, my mind starts to clear out. All of the thoughts that have been clouding my mind seem to disappear and I just see what is in front of . I see my two mates, my two n.
They are the most important things in my life and as much as I want to keep both of them alive, there is only one way out of this.
I take a deep breath and I look at them for the last ti. I close my eyes and say a prayer for them. I hope that wherever they are, in this dream or not, they are safe and that they will be able to get out of this alive.
I open my eyes and then I turn around to face my mother. I feel like there is a big weight on my shoulder, like the biggest burden in the world and I know that she is the reason for this. She is the reason why I am going through all of this.
"I choose neither of them,’’ I say to her, she looks at
and smiles. "You made the wrong choice Blue.’’
She grabs my hand roughly and throws
to the wall. I hit the wall with a loud thud, it feels like my bones are crumbling inside of
but I don’t budge. I don’t try to fight this.
"You have to make a choice, that is how this works. You can’t decide that you don’t want to be complacent," she shouts at . I see the frustration in her eyes. The smile is gone., but the determination is still there. She wants to break ; I an that is the point of all this. Nothing else makes sense.
"I choose not to choose,’’ I say to her and she hits
across the face. I feel like my nose is broken, but I still don’t move.
"Blue,’’ I recognize the voice imdiately "Blue,’’ I look in the direction of my mates and Gyles is awake. his eyes are open, making the injuries on his face look even worse. It feels like my heart is being ripped out of my chest, seeing him hurt, and not being able to do anything to help him.
He sees
and he looks at
like I am the only one who can save him like I am his hero and I wish I could be. It feels like my eyes are watering because I want to save him so bad. I want to take the pain away.
"Blue," he says my na again and I take a step towards him. I look at my mother, but she doesn’t seem to care. She just smiles at
and I know that she is waiting for
to make a move. I know that this is all a ga and she wants
to make a move. This is all a ga and I don’t know if it is the right move, but I want to protect him.
I look at him and I know that this is not going to end well.
She is not really my mother. This is not about the relationship I have with her. This is a mind ga, made by the goddess. This is my punishnt for the decisions I made so there is no way this will end well.
I look at my wrist. The bracelet that Rex gave
is still around it. This might all be in my head but this is . I am in control of my decisions.
This is like a chain around your wrist. I am yours until death.
I rember his smile, the humor in his words. He was ssing around and I could tell that he was scared about the mating ritual. I assured him that we would co out of it and he believed .
That is just the kind of person Rex is.
He trusts with his whole being.
"I can’t choose anyone,’’ I tell her blatantly.
They are my mates--both of them and no one should expect
to choose. If either of them dies, then I die. I am willing to die for them. They are mine and I am theirs. We are a triad and there is no way I can choose just one of them.
"Well, I guess we are going to have to find another way to teach you,’’ she says and she starts walking towards . It looks like she is about to hit
again but she doesn’t. Instead, she takes her hand and she grabs my wrist and she rips the bracelet off.
It burns like it is on fire. I feel like my skin is lting and I can’t help it but I scream. The pain is unbearable and it feels like my body is being torn apart. I feel like my chest is burning and I can’t breathe but then she takes a step away from .
"There are repercussions for every action and since you can’t choose, you will lose them both.’’
As the words escape her lips, she walks back to them and Rex wakes up too. They both look scared. I want to reach for them, I want to break them free and protect them but I can’t do anything.
"I choose , take
instead of them,’’ I shout to her, my eyes fixed on both of them. I can’t stand the look on their faces; they are both terrified and I want to save them. It is my fault that they are here and it is my fault they are going to die.
She turns around imdiately and there is a smile on her face. She is enjoying this a lot more than I thought she would.
"Oh, a hero, I am sorry but your decision is the wrong one,’’ she turns back to them and in a second, I watch them suffer. I watch her take the life of the people that matter to . I watch her take the people I love and I can’t do a thing. It is like watching a car crash. It is horrifying but you can’t take your eyes away from it.
I close my eyes as the life dissipates from their eyes and when I open them back up, I am back in the cave.
Back alone.
