Chapter 43

Jessica was the one to alert other primordials, this she did without including her brother. It wasnt when they were sure that Gwen would be okay did they mind link Vince and he appeared almost feral and only calmed down at the news that Gwen was alright. He gave her his blood which she drank as quickly as she could like she was starving. She took so much that when she finally let go. Vince staggered to a chair and collapse in it and didnt bother to refuse the cup of blood when offered to him. He just drowned it down.

are you okay? Jake leaned forward in concern.

you tell me Jake, my mate and child were just attacked and there is nothing I can do about protecting them, that fact is clear. Vince released a bitter laugh, Jake didnt bother to correct him about the fact that the reason he asked was because Vince had staggered backwards.

I should have not listened to her. If I were here, this wouldnt have happened. Caleb said as Vince turned to look at him.

good topic Caleb why werent you here? Vince looks at Caleb with hostility in his eyes.

she called me to tell me that Jessica was here watching her. Caleb replied as he noticed his fellow council members looking at him in a way that seems to say that they believe he was guilty of committing a crime.

and you did not think to check up with Jessica. Vince cuts in before his sister could get a word in edge wise.

I was busy and I didnt really think much into it Elijah you knew how it was today in the office. Caleb said as Elijah looked at him.

actually I do, I also knew that I would have checked up on Gwen if not for the fact that I thought she was with her mate and I didnt want to disturb her. Whats your excuse especially since she called you. Elijah said.

my mind cannot focus on more than one thing at a time, that was why I put it out of my mind when she said Jessica was with her. And I would prefer it if you all were not looking at me as if I was a traitor, the only thing I am guilty off is the fact that I didnt check in. Caleb said.

well things are not looking well in your favor, especially since it means that we have another traitor in our midst. Jessica said as all turned to look at her.

explain please. Courtney aid as she folded her hands and faced Vince.

I told Gwen that she is safe in the crystal room no matter what because the only people who can enter that room are the six of us then Gwen I thought we have found the traitor and now, it was in the crystal room that the major fight happened that means that we have someone else here with us who is not supposed to be and the odds are looking at Caleb.

so the rest of us are now under suspect. Courtney asks as Jessica shrugged in reply.

I suggest that Caleb goes away for a while. Vince adds ignoring Courtney question.

why? Caleb started only to stop when he saw the look that Vince was giving him.

the fact that my mate was attacked when she would have been in your care is more than enough reason I dont want you to be close to her. Vince replied as Caleb looked into the faces of his fellow primordials but they all avoided his gaze.

nice to know I can have my family in my back when issues arises. Caleb said sarcastically as he then disappears.

no offense but I actually think that we should not have allowed him out of this room, not without torturing him to make him confess. Elijah said as Vince shook his head.

innocent until proven guilty and this just means that I will now look for evidence to prove his guilt. Vince said as Jake opened his mouth to talk, that was when Gwen shifted and Vince quickly moved to her side.

dear, you okay? Vince asks as Gwen eyelashes fluttered.

how is my baby. Gwen asked in a weak voice.

our baby is okay. Vince answered quickly as Gwen smiled thinly with pride.

I win. I told him I will win. Gwen said as the rest glanced at each other before looking back to Gwen.

++++++++

wow, thats is a lot to take in. Jake said with a breathe whooshing out him.

and I guess it is a good thing that we didnt torture Caleb. Courtney said to Elijah who released a nervous laugh.

so the traitor falls down to Jake, Caleb and Elijah. Jessica said as Jake and Elijah glared at her. just pointing out what everybody is thinking. She added.

why not Courtney or even you. Elijah asks as Courtney laughs.

“Jessica wont do that to her sister in-law just like I wont do something like that, not my style. If I was the traitor, you can bet that I would have already taken out half of everybody here. Courtney said as Vince nodded

and Jake, you are not worried. Vince noted as Jake released a scoff.

please my stance has always been clear, I have been in the same side since the beginning, if it seemed that I deviated, believe me when I say I didnt. Jake clarified.

why is nobody talking about Gwen and my future god child. Ashley asks looking at the primordial weirdly. He had noticed that they always veer off course but still he thought that there would be change based on nothing like this has ever happened before.

we are getting there. Elijah said as Jake added.

these children dont know that we got the whole time in the world to do what we want then we even have some extra time.

and also we will not talk Vince started as Courtney cuts him short.

whatever you want to say Vince will be listened to some other time when I am not in danger of being pregnant. I am sure that I am not the only person who see it as bad.

true Jessica seconded as Vince looked at her with a betrayed expression. I am sorry Vincent but we need to know exactly what is going on. Especially with her.

and her baby, it has to be something more since it was able to absorb a crystal and use it to make himself and his mother alive Ashley said.

and none of us know what a pure vampire is like since we were all turned.

Vince froze, wait that means that my child will be the first pure blooded vampire.

he is not born yet.: Jake reminded him

and he will, nothing will happen to him. Vince snarls as Jake drew back and wisely left the issue.

and look Gwen is awoken. Ashley pointed out as they all turned to look at her.

“we have to stop meeting this way. Gwen mumbled weakly.

hey superstar. Courtney greeted

it isnt our fault that you are well know by being kidnap.

I think it is more of because I am the weakest link. Gwen said with tears In her eyes.

its okay babe, you are not our weakest link, can you remember what happened. Vince said after he kissed her forehead.

yes I do. Gwen said
