Golden Moon: The Beta Twins' Contracted Mate

Chapter 212 Pain

Morgan "Warn Jaylen and Amir. We need all the help we can get," Amra says, and I link Amir as I run out of the office. Jaylen is a bit more difficult to reach, and when I finally get him to open the mind-link, he sounds confused, but I don't have time to ask questions. "Jaylen, Blue River Pack is under attack. The Luna is taking the King and Crown Prince with her to the saferoom; Amir is on his way. Get here as fast as you can and bring as much help as you can," I say before I close the link. Right now, I have to make sure no one enters the territory. "The King and Crown Prince are in a saferoom with the Luna; they are safe.Let's make sure no one enters the territory; Commander Amir and Commander Jaylen are on their way," I yell through the mind-link at my team and the King's Warriors. Landon is right beside me and tells me they are at the gate and our northern border. "Chaya, Faith. Take half of the King's Warriors with you and head to the gate; the rest follows me," I order through the mind-link. "Hudson, go with them and inform them about everything you hear through the mind-link," I yell at him before I sprint towards the northern border, Landon still right behind me. The future Royal Beta shows up next to me with Casimir's personal Warriors, and when I open my mouth, he just shakes his head. "The Prince told us to stay with you and to protect you with our lives. He didn't say why, just that they are after you," He says, and I know they will do whatever it takes to protect me. Jaylen Persistent pressing against the block I have up wakes me up, and I am confused as to where I am until I see a picture next to the bed. A picture of Morgan and her unit, I shoot up straight in bed as I realize where I am. Again, someone is pressing against my block, and I open it to find out what is going on. I nearly jump out of my skin when I hear Morgan, and I am out of bed before she is finished speaking. I know I will have some explaining to do, but right now, I have other things on my mind. I open the door to be met with Flora, and she looks really pissed off. "Captain, I will explain everything when I find an answer myself. Right now, I need you to wake everyone and get them ready to leave for Blue River Pack; they are under attack. Meet me downstairs as fast as you can," I say as I look at her, and she nods her head before she walks away. I run down the stairs of Morgan's wing and find everyone still fast asleep in my wing. I know I can wake them with a mind-link, but something tells me to open each door to wake them myself. When I open Kaia's room, it is empty, and when I ask her team where she is, they tell me she leaves for a night more often, but that she always comes back on time. As we all get ready, I link Amir to ask him how far out he is. It will take us the better part of the day to get there, and it will take Amir over four hours to get there. Only the King can link all units at once, so Amir and I decide to each link another Commander to get the message through to every unit the King has and to get as much help as we can. By the time we have left the Academy, I have linked three Commanders, and two of them are close enough to be there within half an hour. "Morgan, two units are half an hour away; one unit is over an hour out, and Amir will be there in less than four hours. For us, it will take a lot longer; just hold on," I say through the mind-link, and I close it before I get a response from her. Knowing it will take us a long time before we reach Blue River Pack, I decide to have a talk with Midnight. "Why did I wake up in Morgan's bed?" I ask him. "Don't try to ignore me or to make excuses; I didn't walk into her room," I say, and I watch him as he turns towards me. I know I will not like what he has to say; I can tell by the look in his eyes. "After the stunt Lynah pulled, you closed yourself off to everyone, except our Father and our Pups. Every time someone would bring up their Mate, you practically ran from the room; you closed yourself off from the chance to find happiness, and you will never find it if you keep living in the past. I can't answer your question as long as you are not willing to let go," Midnight responds. I know it was difficult for me to listen to someone talk about how happy they were with their Mate; I also know it had everything to do with Lynah. Because of what she did, my Mate will never be able to give me my first Pup; I never got to experience the joy and happiness of going through that first pregnancy with my Mate. Lynah took all of that away from me; she probably also destroyed my chance of happiness with my Mate. I mean, a male or a female will never accept their Mate's Pups, unless they are someone's second chance Mate, and how do I explain my situation to my Mate?I hear Midnight growl in my head, "You will never have to wonder about that, because you will never find her with your mindset, Asshole," Midnight growls at me before he turns his back on me and retreats to the back of my head as far as he can. "Jaylen, are you okay? You have been very quiet," Tristan asks, and my entire team looks at me. "I just had a discussion with Midnight, and he told me that with my mindset, I didn't have to worry about how my fated Mate will react to Dalton and Thora, because I will never find her, according to him," I answer them honestly. Maybe they can help me understand what my Lycan means. All four of them are quiet as they think about what I have said, and I try to figure out how everything is connected with one another. Before I can even tell them what is running through my mind, I roar as a searing pain runs across my arm, and I grab it to see that there is nothing wrong with my arm. Midnight is whimpering in my head as if we are in pain.
