Chapter 27-- Our Bond Is Weakening, Goodbye Mate? (cleaned)
He's My Mate
Aiden POV
ââIvy?ââ
ââHm?ââ Ivana answered half asleep.
ââCan you let me see Jayce?ââ
ââWhat do you mean?ââ She sat up rubbing her eyes and looking over at me softly stroking Sebâs fur.
ââWell when you⦠After you let Jayce see what I saw and feel what I felt, we both met in this placeâ¦ââ I tried looking for the right words to describe where we were.
ââI donât understand. What place?ââ
ââ When I was in my coma from you I was there too. Itâs like complete darkness and there was only my wolf. But when I was blacked out in the cave I was there again but Jayce and his wolf were too. He said heâs been there a lot but his was a forest and it never had the blackness and when I was there last there was never a forest.ââ My eyes drifted to the small girl on the other side of Ivana before turning my gaze back to her calculating eyes.
ââIt could be a dreamscape I guess. I donât know how I did it though.ââ
ââCan you just try putting me back in the coma I--ââ
ââNo.ââ She cut me off straight away.
ââPlease Ivana I need to see him.ââ
I tried not to sound pathetic in my attempts but I was desperate. I needed the comforting warmth of my mate whether itâs in a âdreamscapeâ or real life. I could feel our bond disintegrating every day. It was getting weaker and I didnât want to lose it. Not when we wanted each other so bad. Not when I finally got something good.
ââFine. Lay down.ââ She sighed and rubbed her face, slowly making her way over to me and moving Seb away only for him to climb straight back into my lap.
I smiled up at her before I laid back into the forest floor and closed my eyes.
Jayceâs POV ( oh my cheese sticks itâs been so long! )
I looked around The Land Of Memories and thought about how lonely it truly felt.
ââYouâre making me depressedââ My wolf growled, resting his head on his front legs and his paws slightly touching the water of the river that flowed throughout the forest.
ââ Depressed doesnât even begin to explain what weâre feeling.ââ I shot back glaring at his carefree nature.
Knowing his nature is my nature only made me angrier. The bond was weakening. I could feel him slipping away and it didnât sit well with me. Hell. If the feeling was on Pluto it still wouldnât sit well with me.
ââ I can feel him. He wants to see us.ââ
ââI can feel it too so you donât need to commentate.ââ I scoffed and walked over to a large tree.
ââAidenâ¦ââ I whispered and rested against the tree.
ââ Sh.ââ Â My wolf demanded and I turned to him about to rip him in half when he stood abruptly and walked towards the tree I was at.
ââ What do you mean sh--ââ
ââShut up!ââ
I stepped closer to him growling before a rumbling broke through the sky and darkness slowly consumed the forest. The trees slowly disappeared amongst the black that left no room for the light to penetrate. Everything was gone.
ââWhat the f--ââ
ââJayce.ââ I heard a soft boyish voice behind me.
I immediately swung around to see the most beautiful creature I had ever laid eyes on. My skin, my bones, my whole body electrified from the proximity of my mate.
ââAiden.ââ I breathed a soft sigh of content and wrapped my arms around him.
He felt so wonderful in my arms, so warm, so complete. I had never been so relieved or happy to see anyone in my life before.
ââ It actually worked.ââ He whispered into my chest, his arms desperately clinging around my body, his fingers knotting into my shirt.
I moved my hands to his face when his grip loosened, rubbing my fingers through his hair and over his jaw and ears. His skin was so soft and his hair just the same.
ââHow did you get here?ââ So much happiness filled me I barely noticed his and my wolf rubbing against each other and whining contently at having each otherâs scent covering them.
ââ Ivy. She put me into a coma again. I asked her to do it because it worked last time. I canât believe it actually worked.ââ He was smiling into my eyes but I could still see how his eyes were getting watery.
ââWhere are you?ââ I whispered as my thumbs unconsciously went to wipe under his eyes as the first tear spilled followed by my lips resting on one eyelid then to the next.
ââ We were just with the Northern Tribe but they found us. The rogues found us and now I donât think anyoneâs left. Weâve been going back towards the fire looking for you.ââ
ââ Weâre not there anymore. Weâve been going west.ââ
I silently cursed myself for being so stupid. We must have picked up his old scent from when he was leaving the Western Kingdom.
ââ Weâve? Who are you with? Are you with my sister?ââ He hurriedly said looking hopefully into my eyes.
ââ No.ââ I shook my head softly.
ââSheâs with the pack. Theyâre scouting for you and researchingâ¦things.ââ
ââThings?ââ
ââYeah.On Ezra and the rogues.ââ
My wolf growled at the partial lie. I didnât want to be the one to tell him about Luna. I couldnât bring my mate so much pain.
ââ So sheâs safe?ââ
ââYeah. Iâve got Evan, Rhyan and a lady named Helena with me.ââ
ââWhoâs Helena?ââ
He didnât sound angry or jealous or anything along those lines just generally curios so we spent the next few hours talking about anything and everything.
He told me about how he had met two really nice people but lost them in the fight and now their daughter Paige was with them. He told me all about getting a puppy name Cerberus which he hates when people called him that, so Seb. I knew he was holding something back but I didnât push him to tell me. He would tell me when he feels it is right.
Time seemed to fly by and soon enough we were both sleeping. My arms were draped around his waist and his head was buried in my chest. It felt peaceful. I wouldnât be able to explain just how natural and great it felt. I wish I didnât have to wake up because I knew when I did; I wouldnât have him in my arms anymore.

A/N
Okay so first Iâm saying sorry. It seems like a common thing but my life is really unpredictable with times I can actually sit down and write. Iâve been getting major writers block too. I know exactly how this book is ending but I donât know how Iâm getting there with everything I want to happen. Anyways all seriousness asideâ¦
DID YOU MISS CHACEâS POV!?
I really missed writing haha I hope we can get some more of his views in the future itâs always good to get a double view on something.
Also I had to re-read this whole book to know what I was up to and I realised⦠There are quite a few chapters Iâm going to have to edit once I have completed this book. I wonât do it now frankly because Iâm lazy and it will take too much time to go through it again. Also Iâd like to better my skills in writing before I destroy it with more rubbish. Donât worry though! Iâm not changing the story just fixing any wording mistakes and any imagery that wasnât as good as it could have been.
I think Iâll do Lunaâs POV next. I realised I wrote Chace a few times instead of Jayce in this chapter but corrected them so if you ever see it written just let me know please. Have a book with a Chace and another with Jayce wasnât my smartest move. Derp.
Wow this was long⦠-suggestive wink-
