Chapter 47.2: The Beginning Of The End (2)

Josey's eyes turn red, revealing her vampire. Cayden looks at her in fascination and maybe something
even softer?



"Let's get this over with.” Hunter says as he enters Cayden's cell and places Clayton on Cayden's bed.



Cayden inspects Clayton's wounds, touching them before his fangs pierce through his skin, right on his
shoulder.



The process doesn't even take a minute. I get a flashback of when Hunter was in this position, my
heart stopping for a second.



The idea of not getting to know him and then him being killed by a vampire, I was hurt. I didn't tell him
how watching him fall to the ground made me feel, I never told anyone but my heart broke.



I just don't know how to start this relationship as father and daughter with him.





Cayden steps away from Clayton, nods his head at me to signal that his job was done. Josey walks out
of the cell carrying a very weak Cherisse. Cayden kisses his sister's forehead before Josey walks out
with her.



Hunter carries Clayton out of the cells too, leaving me with the vampire king.



"Look, I'm sorry. I'm definitely out of my league here with everyone having magical powers and insane
strength but Josey is my only hope. Humans do artificial insemination all the time and it works, I just
need her eggs and her body to carry my child. I need an heir, I need someone to live for." Cayden says
to me before dropping on the bed.



"The amulet, I needed the amulet back when my wife agreed to carry my children but I was not so
lucky. I was born like this, I grew up like this. Why do I need to be punished any further?” Cayden asks
and I sit by him on the bed.



"I don't think Josey is in any state to make such a decision and now that her mates are about to
become vampires, she has to stick by them." I say looking down.



Hunter arrives back with Chase.





"It rejected Chase.” Hunter says and I look at Cayden.



"Number two. Then I'll personally heal your sister.” I say looking in to his eyes. Cayden sinks his fangs
and turns Chase..



I would now use the same amulet to heal Cherisse. Depleting it's magic completely and preventing
anyone from using it against us.



Hunter disappears with an unconscious Chase and I'm left with Cayden once again.



"Look, my mother's involvement definitely shook all of us. I'm sorry it left you cursed and in such a
mess but trust me when I say, I'm also paying for her choices in life. I will ask Josey to come speak with
you... I hope you respect her decision this time if she says no." I say as I stand up to leave the cell.



"I will." Cayden says to me. I walk out and make my way to my mother. It was time to get the full story
so I can make things right.



"Josey, Cayden needs to speak with you." I say and she nods her head as she makes her way out.





"Mother, you are going to tell me everything. About you being a halfling, about Shadow. About tricking
dad and why nana was cast out from the heavenly realm. Why did Ethia lie and say her name was
luna? How was she able to yield moon goddess power? Scare you and Hunter into hiding and most
importantly, the real story between you and my real father.” I say looking straight in her eyes.



My mother nods her head, agreeing to tell me the full story.



"Follow me. Hunter, I'll need to talk with you too." I say as I walk out of the recovery room and straight
to my office.

Josey's POV



"You asked for me?" I say to Cayden, walking in to his cell.



He looks at me and smiles, I guess the mess I was in pleased him. Blood all over my face, more
especially my mouth confirming I fed on a human. I allowed my vampire to take the lead in saving my
pack, her feeding on the humans caught me by surprise but they needed to die one way or another so I
allowed it.





"Thank you, for saving them.” I say and Cayden smiles.



"Yes. You are most welcome, now it's my turn." Cayden says to me and I look at him in shock.



"You honestly think I'll sleep with you after what you did to my pack and my mates?" I ask him.



"Yes." Cayden says to me, confidently.



"Crazy! So crazy. I can't believe you'd think I would agree to anything with you after what happened
today! I almost lost my mates. Goddess knows what state my pack is in after you had hunters attack
my people. I don't think you understand the mess you have made, leaving it all for me to clean up and
fix. I have no business with you anymore." I say as I turn around to leave.



"You will leave your mates to stay with me. You will give me three months to win you over and if that
does not happen, you are free to go back to your mates but until then, you are mine and mine alone.”
Cayden says, my mind agreeing with what he said.





I will leave with Cayden. I will be with him for some time and allow him the chance to win my heart and
if I still love my mates when his time is up, I will go back to them.



"Yes." I say looking in to Cayden’s eyes. He smiles at me, a warm smile that could cure anything.



"I think it's time your sister let me out of here. I think it's time I went back to my people with my queen
by my side." Cayden says and I nod my head in agreement.



Something in the back of my mind was telling me this isn't right but I shook it off and walked out to tell
Sabrina to let Cayden go.



We have the amulet and he will be too preoccupied with building a new kingdom before going in to war
with us.



We would be too preoccupied with building a kingdom, together.
