     I slowly woke up, looking around. My body was throbbing badly. I suddenly felt fingers go on my back. I turned my head, finding Naraku touching my back. I arched a brow as I looked at him. He just smiled. I summoned a mirror and had him point at it. I soon saw a black tribal spider tattoo in the middle of my back.

       When I sat up, my eyes also caught something black on my other leg

       When I sat up, my eyes also caught something black on my other leg. I looked down and my eyes immediately widened, my mouth agape. There, wrapped around my leg was a black scorpion tribal tattoo.

    "But how?" I weakly asked as I gently stroked the marking

      "I brought you some food. I wasn't sure what you liked but I had the other scorpions pick it up for..." Mitchell said as he came into the room.

     His eyes landed upon my leg, his breathing hitched.

      "I don't know how Mitch, but this is your mark. You are no longer rootless." I said to him. Then I flinched. "We must be careful. If other rootless beasts find out that I can restore their roots, I...I..."

      "That won't happen." Mitchell vowed. A mixture of different emotions rippled through him. I could see that he was having a hard time trying to control his emotions. "We will protect you."

       "All right but there is on thing you must know Mitchell. You can not kill my other mates or remove their marks. I treat them with all the same love. Not more or less. Do you understand?"

      "I..."

     "I know the emotions are new, let alone your kind doesn't like to share spouses. But my kind mates for life. My beast tells me who I am mates with and who I'm not. You two are mates and thus I will love you both for all eternity."

   For the next three days, I was going through a routine. Eat, sleep, mate and relieve myself, then repeat. I was dead tired as soon as my heat died down. I panted as I looked around.
