Xyon and Xenia

Chapter 26, part 2

Chapter 26, part 2

  

   After completing our dinner he went to his bed  and gave me his back as if silently telling me that this was as much of an interaction he was ready for with me.

But me being me I shut off the lights and slipped into his bed spooning him from behind.

He froze!

I started to rub soothing circles up and down his back hoping it would relax him, but

Nothing!

He wasn’t budging it was as if I was hugging a mountain with no reaction at all just laying still as if by doing this he hopes I’ll just leave him alone.

I felt sad that I am trying this hard to comfort him but all he is doing is shutting me off!

Frustrated and broken hearted a few traitorous tears slipped my eyes making me realize that no matter how hard I was trying to convince myself and everyone else that all is well and everything will be fine, Nothing is well and nothing will be fine everything is wrong, Everything is so wrong.

I started to slowly slip away from his bed and went back to my room. I lied down on my bed and the moment my back hit the soft mattress gut wrenching sobs started to escape me.

I know he needs time but so do I! If I can put everything aside and be there for him why can’t he do the same thing for me?

Why?

So many questions yet no answers…

I didn’t realize when he had entered my room but soon I stiffened when I felt someone gently and guardedly stroking my back scared of my reaction.

But that was all I needed to turn around and throw myself into his arms and cry my heart out.

I don’t know how long I stayed there wrapped in his warm arms with me crying till my cries and sobs turned into soft whimpering sounds and the occasional tear or two slipping my eyes yet he sat there all the time hugging me gently and sometimes growling softly and other times whimpering beside me both of us at last finding comfort and an outlet to all our pent up frustrations.

Finally sleep took over us while we were wrapped in each others arms all worries evaporated from our minds and only peace and tranquility surrounding us…

“You do know that leaving her with him is wrong on so many levels! I mean what will you do if he just kills her in an angry fit? She is a mere she-wolf Huh?” A very irritated Father Josef asked Jeffery.

“I don’t know Father, but what I do know is that no one in our pack was able to get him do anything yet that mere she-wolf as you say and whom you are so scared for her well being was able to make him come back like a lost pup, have dinner, and sleep soundly with her on the same bed!” Jeffery replied sarcastically which just made father Josef shift his weight from one leg to the other uncomfortably.

“That’s not the point the point is for our remedy to work she has to be away from him” Father Dave put in his two cents of an opinion.

Ross entered the room hearing this comment while sporting a very bruised face and arm.

“Good luck with that, no on second thoughts I would actually love to see who that brave person is that will try to take her away from him” he scoffed while cradling his wounded arm.

“Can’t you see what he did to you? You are twice her size and ten times stronger yet he tossed you around like you were nothing, imagine what he’ll do to her” Father Josef tried convincing Ross and everyone else of his opinion.

Xavier laughed a full blown heartfelt laugh while Josh and Ross joined him as well.

“Why are you laughing what’s so funny?” Father Dave asked not feeling an inch of amusement at the situation they were all in.

“Dear Father can’t you see what she did to Him? Seriously can’t you see she is our best chance in taming him and not letting him go berserk? She is the only one Xyon would Never hurt especially his wolf, common man, his wolf was smitten by her long before Xyon even knew she was his mate. So if I were you I would honestly try to see a way to get them back instead of always trying to break them a part. Seriously you guys seem as if you have a crush on Xyon always trying to take his mate away! Exclaimed Xavier while Josh and Ross smirked wickedly at his outburst but Jeffery didn’t like the disrespect he was showing the priests.

“Xavier that is no way to talk to your elders” Jeffery growled at Xavier which only made Xavier bow his head mockingly towards the priests “I am truly sorry if I offended any of you sometimes I just say what’s on my mind without  thinking” He stated sardonically.

“How long till we have the remedy?” Jeffery asked Father Josef ignoring Xavier’s fake apology for he himself felt the same way.

Father Josef took a deep breath “we are not sure because this has never happened before but I am guessing a few weeks” he said in a small voice.

“A few weeks???” Ross asked shocked “Are you kidding me? We can’t survive, they can’t survive stuck in such a limbo for a few weeks, you have to hurry up or something” Ross continued feeling disgusted and repulsed by the whole situation.

“Sorry son but we are trying and so far we have nothing” Father Dave said apologetically.

****************

I woke up to the sounds of quarreling downstairs. I turned around and found Xyon fast asleep and hugging me fiercely from behind. I tried to ease myself out of his iron grip which after sometime I was able to succeed I guess even subconsciously him being afraid to hurt me allowed me to escape.

 I wanted to see what was all the noises about I tried to put something on over my short shorts and tank top, finally I settled with one of Xyon’s tee shirts which thankfully reached almost my knees.  After making sure that I was representable I went downstairs only to find them all at each other’s throats (figuratively speaking). When they realized that they were not alone silence fell on the room.

“Please don’t stop on my account” I said quite casually and went to sit on a vacant chair. I saw everyone was looking at me with worry and care except the two priests their glances were creeping me out even without my wolf to guide me I could see they were evil I don’t know how I knew that I guess you can call it a woman’s intuition.

Father Josef masked his evil face and placed a very impassive and caring façade trying to convince everyone how much of a good person he is!

“My dear child we were just worried about you that’s all” Father Josef stated trying to win me over I just looked at him impassively and nodded.

“Okay so since you are all so worried I am sure you must have come up with a solution for our small predicament right?” I asked yet I knew they didn’t have any solutions for I just heard half of their conversation before revealing myself to them.

“Well now that you asked we do have but you know such things take time and it will probably take a few weeks to complete the remedy, in the mean time dear child I must highly recommend that you stay as far away from Xyon’s beastly form as you can” Father Dave said satisfied with himself for being able to shoot out a string of lies in one breath.

I just kept looking at them as if they had all just lost their freaking minds.

“Firstly, I really don’t think being with or away from my mate is anyone’s concern other than me and him, and secondly, no, such things do not take so much of a long time for I myself have a remedy that won’t take more than one day to work. All I need is Jeffery’s permission to begin it and then I am sure Xyon will be back and so will my wolf!
