Golden Moon: The Beta Twins' Contracted Mate
Morgan "My parents have known my entire life what would happen if anyone found out I was born. They kept other Packs away from our territory because of it. They wanted to celebrate my seventeenth birthday in a special way, and the preparation for it caused me to leave home. It was never their intention to ignore me, but trying to keep everything a secret made that happen nonetheless, and not being able to find me hurt my family. Dad explained they couldn't report me missing because they didn't want the report to end up on the wrong desk. I spent many hours talking to my parents and my Brothers. They understand how it made me feel, and they apologized for it at least ten times a day. I eventually had to tell them to stop apologizing, or I would wait another year to visit again." I say, and I hear the others chuckle as I look at my hand on Jaylen's arm. "Does this mean she can hear my thoughts at all times?" I hear Amir think, and I decide to explain my gifts to them a little more. "No, Amir. Not all the time," I answer his thought, and his jaw drops as he looks at me. "Sometimes I just hear another's thoughts, but I have no control over it, and I am not sure if I can train it. I can hear better than any of you; even a soundproof room isn't completely soundproof to me. The gift of sense can tell me when my back-up arrives and how many of them there are. Those two gifts are present at all times, and I didn't have to do much to learn how to use them, but it was strange in the beginning as I thought something was closer than it actually was.The gift of perception is a strange one, and it has only happened once, but it didn't make any sense to me. I am hoping that I can train that gift to be more useful in the future because right now it is quite useless to me." I say, and King Damon has been watching the other Commanders while I was explaining my gifts. "Your Majesty, how can we make sure Morgan can do her job safely?" One of the Commanders asks, and King Damon tells them he had a hard time making me accept his conditions. "Morgan will take an extra team with her on every assignment, and she has to inform Commander Amir and Commander Jaylen about where she is going. We need to make sure that no one will be able to get to her and forcefully mark her. The Alpha of Shadow Rock Pack will have to stand trial for the attack and for planning a forceful marking, meaning that it will become known who Morgan is." He says, and every Commander has a serious expression on their face. Each of them vows to King Damon that they will do everything in their power to keep me safe, and Jaylen is the last one to make the vow. He holds on to my hand as he vows the same thing the other Commanders did, and I can tell that his Lycan is close to the surface. Once we have discussed everything that happened at Blue River Pack, Amir asks about Nigel and his Father. "Kaia was his fated Mate, and she told him where I would be. Who kept it hidden that the King and Crown Prince would be with me, I don't know, and thanks to Nigel's Father, we didn't get a chance to question Kaia. As for Nigel, he got killed by two of Prince Casimir's Warriors; they were ordered to protect me at all costs. Ashton and Colton started questioning Nigel's Father after we left, and if the stories I heard over the years are true, he will be singing like a bird by the end of the week." I say. "She never mentioned finding her Mate," Jaylen mumbles, and I tell him she thought Nigel was there to kill me. "She wanted you as her chosen Mate, but what that has to do with me, I don't know." I tell him, and Amra and I watch him as he processes my words. I doubt he realizes that everyone else was sent out of the room by King Damon. He seems to be arguing with his Lycan, and we are waiting for them to finish their discussion. An Omega walks in with some coffee for us, and she stares at Jaylen for a moment. It looks strange seeing someone argue with their Wolf or Lycan. Casimir sits down in a seat across from me, and Roan sits down on my other side. "Morgan, you mentioned that thoughts come to you randomly. What do you do when you hear something disturbing?" Roan asks, and I tell him what happened on my way to the Academy. "I paid them a visit on my way back from one of my assignments, and her Father told me that my instincts had been right. The female that tried to kill her back then had tried again. Luckily, he had heeded my warning; she had visible and invisible Guards, and they were able to stop the female from killing her. She found her Mate a week after that, and I met him when I was there. He is an overprotective ass, according to her. She even says it to his face, and all he does is smile." I tell them, and I accept the coffee King Damon offers me. I am halfway through my coffee when Jaylen finally seems to realize that it is just the five of us left in the meeting room. "Care to tell us what you and Midnight were discussing?" King Damon says, and he gives me a strange look before he looks at King Damon again. "Just hear me out before anyone of you responds," He says, and we all nod our heads. "When Morgan linked me, I found myself in a place I shouldn't be in, and Midnight refuses to tell me why. All he keeps saying is that I need to let go of the past, or I will never find my fated Mate, but it still doesn't answer the question I keep asking him. His response to someone forcefully marking Morgan has me confused. I understand he doesn't like hearing it, and I understand he feels anger towards Nigel. It is the fact that he feels murderous just thinking about it that has me confused. Only Mates react like that when their Mate would be involved," Jaylen answers. Amra is pacing around in my head, and I know she wants me to ask questions, but I am not sure if I should ask them with the others around.
