comfortable I was talking with Lucas.
I had also gotten very comfortable touching
Lucas and having him touch me. It was strange how I didn’t even
flinch anymore. It seemed like the most natural thing in the world
to me now. We held hands the entire time we walked, and then he
would randomly stop lift me into his arms and spin me around and
place a kiss on my lips. It was everything I could ever dream of
wanting. Every romance novel I had ever read never could have
prepared me for how good my real day was. Oh, part of me knew that
all of this was going to come to an end, but I will never get this
chance again. My mother said
“It is better to have known love and lost it,
than to have never known it at all.”
When I woke up with Lucas beside me, I knew
she was right. I would embrace every moment I had with Lucas and
not worry about tomorrow until tomorrow came. If he wanted to bond
with me, we would bond. If he wants to kiss, we’ll kiss. If wants
to sleep next to me I will snuggle with him. I will give him my
heart, body and soul and leave it in his care until he no longer
wants it. When the time comes, and I lose him, I will remember our
time together and know that it was worth it.
Just before we decided it was time for bed,
Lucas finally brought up our future. He used a lot of words and
back tracked and even double talked a couple of times, but
basically he avoided telling me his father was not in favor of our
mating and that we needed to wait to bond until we had the official
bonding ceremony in front of the pack.
Lucas let me know we were going to spend a
few days here in the BlueRidge pack house before we go back and
deal with our pack. I wish I believed and agreed with everything he
said. I just didn’t though. Not that he really asked my opinion or
gave me a choice. He spoke like this was going to be easy, I knew
that was never going to happen. The pack had seventeen years to
learn to hate me. It was going to take a lot more than an ancient
bonding ceremony for them to throw open their arms and accept
me.
That however was something I kept to myself.
I didn’t want any conflict with Lucas. I didn’t want anything to
spoil the short time I was going to have with him. I needed this
time, I deserved it. So when he took my hand and led my upstairs
for bed I smiled my brightest smile and followed him.
(Nikoli’s POV)
It was impossible; my beloved could not be a
werewolf. A werewolf isn’t capable of being turned, and we can’t be
blooded. In order for us to be blooded soul mates, we would need to
feed from each other and since she is a wolf that was impossible.
Wolves’ blood is poisonous to us. We may bite wolves during a
fight, but we never swallow their blood.
Unlike the wolves we are immortal. Only four
things can kill us. First and most commonly known method is
completely severing our heads from our shoulders. This is a task
easier said than done since there is no creature alive that is
stronger than a vampire.
The second and most misunderstood method is
removing our heart from our chest and completely destroying it.
Most of the time, humans and wolves alike stab at our hearts and
leave us for dead. They misunderstand and think they have killed
us. Occasionally they will know they should remove our heart, then
foolishly don’t know to destroy it. Either way, even a small
undamaged piece left behind can be regenerated and we can
completely recover. We can even shove back in the damaged removed
heart and can regenerate.
The third and again misunderstood is
sunlight. While we can tolerate a little sunlight, prolonged
exposure causes severe burns, and eventually death. By prolonged I
mean days of exposure not hours.
The final way, and most deadly way to kill a
vampire is the consumption of wolf blood. This is a secret that
vampires never share outside of our own race. If wolves or humans
knew how deadly wolf blood was to us, they would use it to their
advantage. This was our best kept secret.
