The Return of the Assassins

Chapter CHAPTER 13



As we got out of the car at Chin’s place, I still had this horrible feeling in my stomach as if something big is going to happen. I hope that it won’t be another battle of some sort as Violet and I were still recovering from yesterday’s battle. It was already a fight on its own just to get out of bed this morning and that is when I smelled the most delicious smell I have ever smelled, it was a mixture of coffee and chocolates and I could not help the smile that crept up on my face.

After entering the living room we were met with Chin and two cups of coffee like every morning. “Morning girl’s, looks like you had a peaceful night.” “Morning Chin, sounds and looks like you had a busy night. What happen after we left?” “Let’s go to the office everyone is waiting in there then we will talk about everything.” I look at him with a frown on my face not liking this situation at all. It is not like Chin to be so vague about something. As we enter the office all the men stood up from their chairs and greeted us. “Morning guys,” we greeted them back and they all sat back down again as we made it through to Chin’s desk where he was pulling another chair to sit next to his and showing me and Violet to sit there.

Once seated I looked over at Liam and a little taken back as he gave me a looked that would have killed me if he had the power, but I just ignored it and asked him, “So Liam I gather that you have spoken to your brother last night.” “Yes I did and that is why he is here.” I cocked my head to the side and looked at him confusingly. “What do you mean your brother is here, where is he?” “He is outside just busy on a phone call as we had to wait for you guys all morning I am sure you would not mind waiting for him for a few minutes.” Okay now I know why I was getting those looks from him, it is because we only arrived at eleven am and that I am sitting in the main chair behind the desk is also not helping. That is probably the reason why Chin and Peter look so tired as well; they were probably being questioned the whole night about Violet and me. “Hey Scar can I ask you a question?” I looked over at Jax and nodded. “May I ask you what the reason was that you took your daughter into a battle of over a hundred Vampires? I am sure that she is not older than eleven.” Before I could answer, Violet spoke up. “I can assure you that I am fourteen years old and that I was more than capable to handle myself out there. I was trained by the best and knew exactly what I was doing.” I looked back at him and just said, “What she said.” Nodding my head at Violet giving her a small smile and a wink.

“I can vouch for that you guys really kick some vampire’s asses out there. I must say there was a point that I was worried about you, when they were on top of Violet, but you got out of it and I never saw someone as strong. I mean ripping their heads off with your hands. I guess that is what they mean by saying, that there is nothing as terrifying as a mother’s wrath.” I could not help but to laugh a little at that, I mean he was like a little boy who just saw the coolest movie ever and the other guys was just sitting there with smiles on their faces. I guess they also like to see it when he gets excited like this. “Thank you Jason I am very glad you think so, but if you were so worried about us why didn’t you help us?” He looked down at his hands again looking as if he is embarrassed of something. “I wanted to, believe me, but I had my orders and was not allowed to interfere.” Then I looked over at Liam knowing he had given those orders. “So do you always do what you are told, the loyal little brother that doesn’t break an order even after you know what those vampire’s did?” I knew I should not have said that but I just couldn’t help myself and the looked that I get from him was once a gain a look that wanted to kill me. I just know sooner or later there will probably be a little sparing contest between the two of us. “I respect my older brother and he is my King, so yes I do as I am told. The rules are there to protect us and to help us to have as much peace as possible between all the inhuman.” I hit my fist against the table struggling to control my anger a little, “Yes the inhumane, but what about the humans, what about their lives! You guys are really assholes, this world was meant for the humans not the inhuman, their lives matter more than any of ours and if that was not true we would not have been living in secret.”

As he stood up probably wanting to scream at me again the door opened up and the smell of coffee and chocolate hit me like a ton of bricks. My breath was caught in my throat and there was butterfly’s in my stomach and I just felt overwhelmed. I knew at this point my aura was off the chart and my eyes were glowing as I felt all my senses at full alert and that is when I saw the most beautiful silver eyes staring right back at me as if staring right into the deepest darkest parts of my sole. A shiver ran down my spine, a good kind of shiver and I knew that this man will be the death of me. The room was dead silence and everyone was looking between me and who I guessed to be Alexander Corvene the King of the Inhumane world.

“Mom are you okay you are starting to scare me a little.” As I looked at Violet I could see the fear in her eyes and that snapped me out of the Trans that I was in. “I’m sorry princess of course I’m fine.” I looked over at Chin hoping that he will see the question in my eyes and help with whatever was happening. As if reading my mind he started to explain to me what was going on. “Baby girl.” Then we heard an ear piercing growl coming from Alexander and we all look at him. I of course was looking at him as if he was mad, why would he do that and Chin was looking at him with wide eyes and I could see him swallowing the saliva in his mouth and bowing his head in respect to his king. “Chin what the hell is going on here?” “Well ohm, I don’t really know how to tell you this Ba…. I mean Scar, but he is your true mate.” Just with those two words, true mate, it felt like my whole world was ripped out from under me, I could not breathe anymore. This can’t be, it just can’t be. “No no no no no, I had my true mate I was married to my true mate. We had a daughter together. You know I would not be able to have a child if I was not with my true mate! So-so how can he be my mate?” I started screaming at no one in particular. Feeling like my world is starting to crumble apart, my anger rising and I did nothing to stop it. As I release it. I fell to my knees and felt tears stinging in the back of my eyes, how fate can be so cruel, I will never accept another man to take my husband’s place, never. “Scar calm down you are going to break my office, please just calm down. That is when I notice the office, everything was thrown around and everyone was on the ground or pinned to the wall, except for Violet, Chin and Alexander who was trying to calm me down. “O I….. I am so sorry.” I stood up and left the room as fast as I could. Once outside I got some much needed fresh air and try to figure out what the hell was going on.

“Hey mom I brought you some juice.” “Thank you princess.” “Mom please do not be angry, but I think that this is a good thing.” I looked at her as if she grew a second head not believing what I am hearing. “How is this a good thing Violet, as I said before I had the love of my life there is no way that Alexander is my mate? There must be a mistake somewhere.” “Mom he is your second chance mate it happens sometimes, it is very rare but it does happen.” “And how do you know all about this Violet?” “Peter told me about it when he explained the true mate thing to me.” I really need to teach Peter a lesson or two about talking to my daughter about things that she really shouldn’t know about at this age. “Mom, papa would not want you to live the rest of your life alone. He would want you to be happy and loved. He would want you to smile again and to have fun.” “Violet stop, just…… stop. You don’t know what you are talking about right now. You are too young.” “O so I am too young to know about love but not too young to go into battle and kill?” I just let out a frustrating sigh not knowing how to react to that. “Mama you think I don’t know….. How you cry yourself to sleep every single night, but I do know. I may not be able to hear it, but I feel it and it is breaking me and it’s destroying you mama. Every tear that slips from your eyes feels like a knife stabbing at my heart and the worst part of it all is that I know when you have stopped crying, it is when you have cried yourself to sleep and then….. The night mare’s start and I can feel everything, the fear, anger and the sadness all over again. Night after night for four years mom, for four years I was reliving dad’s death. Never knowing when we will finally be able to move on. This need to end or it will be the end of you. I love you mom and I can’t lose you, not now. I still need you to be there for me, I still need your advice. Please mama......I lost dad I cannot lose you too.” She said the last part in a whisper as she broke down into tears. “O love I will always be there for you and it will get better I promise.” That is when I pulled her into my arms and just hold her against me as she was crying into my chest, it was just there and then that I could not hold back my own tears anymore and I let them slide over my face. How could I have done this to my daughter, how could I have not notice that I am destroying her? Here I thought I was being strong for her, but all the while she was the rock that I was leaning on the one that kept me from drowning. “I am so sorry my love I should be the one protecting you and here I was breaking you. I am so-so sorry.” I said between my sops.

Then Chin came out of the house with Peter by his side and they just took us into their arms, hugged us as if there was no tomorrow. I could hear someone growling from inside the house but did not pay any attention to it as Chin and Peter was able to ignore it as well. I do not know where Violet and I would have been if it was not for them, they were our life lines and they gave us purpose for living. It was time to put the past in the past and move on. Violet was right he would not want us to be crying all the time; he would want us to be happy and to live our lives to the fullest. But that does not mean that I will give into the mate bond, I do not trust Alexander and he will have to proof to me that he is worthy of having a place in my heart.
