Chapter 63

Back at the library with Elanor –

When Michael touched me, I felt an electric shock, as if someone had electrocuted me. When I felt it for the first time, I thought it was an electromagnetic shock. It turns out I was wrong. This comes with a certain amount of longing and pleasure in it.

In my texts, wolves have mates, and this happens when they mate. However, I am not a wolf. I can’t understand what is going on here. Elves don’t have mates, we are logical. When we feel the need for mating, we interview potential mates and come to a logical consensus about who we want as our mate. Our mating procedure is not the same as wolves.

In shock, I shake my head no and drop Michael's hand. “This isn’t happening, there must be a mistake.” I say to Michael as I turn and head over to grab a hold of Akira. I have decided we are leaving. I am an elf, and it is not possible I am a wolf’s mate.

Akira –

"Uh Uh, try to work it out with Michael. As I told you, I see him intertwined with your future. I folded my arms and look serious. I'm only six, though, so I usually make people laugh out loud.

Elanor –

“You are lucky you are a princess and I have to obey you.” I wag my finger at her. I turn around and head back to a very hurt looking Michael.

For some reason my heart fell a pang of pain seeing him hurting. It is not because of his mate bond. It is because I am nice. Ugghh… what if I am his mate, my studies show that if that is the case Michael will not be able to leave my side until we are fully marked and mated.

I hear Akira in my head. “Yes you are an elf, but that doesn’t mean the God’s didn’t make him your mate. Seriously Elanor get over it!”

“Akira GET OUT OF MY HEAD! You need to learn boundaries.” I watch Akira throw herself on the ground landing on her butt with her arms crossed. I shake my head turning again to look at Michael again.

“Michael lets go sit back in that corner sofa – where we can talk more privately, and I still can keep an eye on Akira. Oh, and keep your hands to yourself. The sparks were a little overwhelming.”

I have Michael following me over to the love seat, while Akira reads books.

Michael –

I decide to make conversations with Elanor to try to get to know her and maybe she will start to trust me.

“How is it you became a nanny?”

Elanor –

I grimace not sure what I can answer as we have been in hiding a long time now. I am not sure I can trust Michael yet.

Akira –

“Elanor you can trust him. He has a pure heart and soul. He is your mate – your other half.”

Elanor –

“I have told you to stay out of my head Akira! Thank you for your advice.” I reply. While sitting down I glare at Akira warning her I mean business.

Akira giggles blowing kisses at me she is trying hard to get on my nerves, and she is succeeding.

They prophesied Akira to become a dragon with mighty power and the wisdom of the elves behind her. She will possess prophetic abilities; she will feel someone's soul or aura in order to decipher who she can trust. She is just coming into her powers.

As we cannot draw attention to ourselves, I have not let her dragon out. Although we both have golden skin, hers has become golder more recently. I have kept our skin colors hidden. Elves have pointed ears and gold skin. Her skin tone reflects her elfish side.

She'll be more powerful than anyone could have imagined. It's why her evil uncle wants her dead. She's going to inherit the throne and bring an end to the separation of the magical kingdoms. Eventually, she'll bring harmony and peace to every species.

What I find difficult is that she wants me to confide our secret in this man that she and I barely know. I am not sure what to do in this case.

Akira –

“Oh, stop it! His soul is pure, if it makes your decision easier, I order you to tell him our story. The decision has been taken from you. I see things that you do not.”

I cut off my link to her and started reading my books, I was getting slightly annoyed at Elanor.

Elanor –

“Michael, before we discuss your thinking I am your mate, Akira has ordered me to tell you our story.” I sigh as this was not what I wanted to do. I have done well at hiding her and keeping her safe.

"The green dragon princess is Akira. They rumored her wicked uncle was seeking to kill her according to a prophecy. Her mother instructed me to watch over and guard Akira until she reaches the age that will allow the prophecy to be fulfilled. Until then, we are to remain hidden.

The Green Dragon is a descendant of both dragons and elves. I am an elf who serves as her guardian. Initially, I did not want to tell you, but Akira ordered me to do so. You cannot avoid obeying your Alpha if he or she commands you to do so. That is the case with Akira. It is the first time she has ordered me to comply. This means she trusts you and you better never let her down, or I will slit your throat. Do you understand?"

Michael –

I look over at the little six-year-old girl named Akira and smile at her. “Elanor is a little intense don’t you think?” I said with a chuckle. Elanor was glaring holes in my head. Akira was laughing and ran up with her book to jump on my lap.

Akira –

“Michael, would you read my book to me?”

Michael –

“I would love to read you a book.”

Akira –

“I would love you as my mate, but alas I already have one lined up for me.” I shake my head in disappointment.

Michael –

This little girl is so funny; her quirky mannerisms are cute. I hope to have a female pup just like her.

I look over at my elven goddess, she is beautiful. I wonder how much she knows about wolves and mates. She seemed to know about sparks and the association with mates. I want to touch her so bad. My wolf wants to claim her right now, so that no other male will try to take her from us.

“Elanor what do you know about wolves and finding their mates?”
