Chapter 351: Acceptance
Blue
The drive to Jules’s house is long and we have to make nurous stops but once the sun starts to co out the next day, I see the cabin. The one where he has lived his life in isolation. I look to the back seat and both Gyles and Rex are asleep in each other’s arms. My heart warms up from the sight in front of . I switch off the engine of the car and I see the front door to the cabin open. We are in the middle of the woods. This is the place that Jules decided to call his ho a long ti ago. This is the place he is most comfortable in and even though I stayed with him for a year, It never felt like ho.
I was always yearning and searching for more and I guess I found it with these two guys in the backseat of the car. Gyles is the first to wake up and a look of confusion sprawls on his face as he detaches from Rex and sits up on the chair. His eyes dart around just as Jules walks over to the car. There is a smile on his face, one that just shows
how much he has missed .
"We’re here,’’ I inform them which makes rex wake up too. I walk out of the car but they remain inside.
"My son is back,’’ Jules pulls
into a hug. I let him hold
because, for the first ti in my life, I am vulnerable. A lot has happened and it all hasn’t sunk in. I don’t know if I want to let him know of the disaster that I t in the coven. I know I need to let him that my mother is dead. they never had a relationship. She never even wanted him to know that she was pregnant. she kept the secret for so long.
"I missed you, son,’’ he breathes into the hug. My heart thuds in my chest, my hands tremble as I try to grip him tighter. I need him right now like I have never felt before. I don’t want him to disappear. He is the only family I have left. Yeah, I know that Gyles and Rex are my family now but I was so used to having mom and Levine. Yeah, I wanted to leave the coven but I liked that they relied on . I liked that I was needed every once in a while. I liked that I had a fallback place.
Now I feel like I am losing everything that I was thought I knew.
"What’s wrong?’’ he asks, obviously sensing sothing. he pulls away from
and his eyes find my mates in the back seat "How are they here? Did they go over to the estate?’’ he adds, confusion etched on his face.
I take a deep breath because I don’t want to talk about the coven and everything that happened. I want to take a day to just breathe and the cabin is the only place I can do that. the only place that is secluded from the world. sotis I understand why he chose this life. I wouldn’t mind this kind of life with the people that matter to . I wouldn’t mind finding a quiet place like this and spending the rest of my life with Gyles and Rex.
"Can we just go inside, have breakfast, and just relax?’’ I ask him, wanting so peace and quiet.
He nods imdiately "I cleaned your room for you. Didn’t know they would be joining us.’’ He mutters. I guess he doesn’t like that they are here. Jules doesn’t like people invading his private life but I need him to get used to the fact that we are a package deal. I don’t even want to be anywhere without them anymore.
I wave for them and they both co out of the car. Rex is the only one that seems a little nervous. This is not the first ti he is eting Jules but I guess this is the first ti I am introducing them as my mates.
It would be awkward to et anyone’s parents.
"Dad, this is Rex,’’ I grab Rex and pull him closer to
"And Gyles,’’ I do the sa thing. Gyles manages an excited smile. "They are my mates,’’ I add. I guess this is the first ti I am using the word out to him or anyone with pride. This is not sothing to be ashad of. The fact that we are all guys. The fact that this relationship comprises of three people. I hold so much pride in it. now I see why humans embrace themselves as being different. Normal is overrated. We choose our own destinies and I chose them in a heartbeat.
"Hello,’’ Jules smiles, there is no judgnt in his eyes. There is no pain, no anger. I rember the night mother found out. The differences in their reactions. I see soone that is proud of their son and soone that hated who I had beco. Mother would have never loved
the way I deserved. She loathed
for not being like her. She would have done anything to kill . I was a mistake to her and this is not because of the things Rex showed . I never actually felt love from her and I am glad to be out of that situation.
I am glad to never step foot into the coven again.
I watch him as he shakes both of them. I watch him as his smile widens "So I went hunting before you all showed up. there is a fresh deer in the kitchen for whoever is hungry,’’ he winks just as he walks back to the direction of the house. I look at my mates and they are both smiling.
His offer to feed them ans he has accepted them and my relationship.
It ans the world to .
