My Mates Fight For My Heart

Parents

Damien's POV

I am a little pissed off that Blair's parents interrupted Blair and me. I could feel her giving in to me, and I knew soon she would be mine. I can not even think of her with another mate. It is time she stops thinking about her other two mates. They do not stand a chance against me. I will kill them! I want pups, and I want them with Blair. She will have beautiful dogs, and she is gorgeous. She is mine, and no one else will ever touch her again. I do not want to give my heart to a mate again, but I will not be unfaithful. I do not want to be like my parents were. I will love my pups, and I will respect their mother. Who knows, maybe we will fall in love.

I do not understand why I am so jealous of her. I never felt jealous, but I never knew Alessa had another mate. I know that Blair has two other mates and has not rejected them yet, although she accepted me. It does not mean anything until we become one, so I am pressuring her to become my lover. Hybrids are different than werewolves. You can embrace your wolf or vampire sides, or you can balance them and accept both sides. Loyalty is everything to me. Now that I have a mate, I will not cheat on Blair. She is my mate, and I will respect her for that. I am not ready to fall in love again, as I do not want my heart broken again.

Blair and I walk down the stairs to the front door to meet her parents. I know Blair is as surprised as I am that her parents were willing to give up their pack and coven to become hybrids. Do they want to be near their daughter and make up for what they have done to her? At least they did not cheat on each other for years. I do not know their intentions or if they are here to convince her to take another mate. I will never forgive or even kill them if they try to take Blair away from me. I do not want her to leave me for anyone. I had not seen Alessandria for a while, and when I saw her the night at the party, I was glad she traded me in for Vincent. She is not as beautiful as Blair, and I always thought I liked blonds more than dark-haired women. Well, I was wrong. Blair is a beauty, and every day, I look at her. She becomes more beautiful. I will never trade her for any other mate. I look down at Blair standing next to me. She is much shorter than me. She looks up at me with a frown. She is not happy, I can tell. I know she wanted to get rid of her parents for good, and I understand why. They never loved her. I now know something about myself as well. I never loved Alessa. I wanted to be in love and was in love with the idea of being in love. I wanted a faithful relationship and was rejected by the one I thought I would spend the rest of my life with. I was never jealous of Alessa because I never loved her. Does it mean I love Blair? I do not think so. I do not believe I am capable of love. Or am I? I do not know. I will have to take my time and figure it out.

Chris took Blair's parents to my office. Lucian and Felicia are standing in my office waiting for us, and I show them to sit. I look at them, and I can see they are very nervous. I wonder why they are so worried. I know they are mates now, and I feel they are hybrids. I wonder what really happened and why they are here.

"Alpha, Duke? How can we help you?" I ask.

"Well, I am no longer an Alpha, and Lucian is no longer a Duke. As soon as we marked each other, we turned into hybrids, and my pack did not want a hybrid for an Alpha, and Lucian's coven kicked him out because he was a hybrid. The Prince of Vampires wants Blair as his mate, and the werewolves want Lorens to have her as his mate, but when we refused them that as well, they finally kicked us out, and we had nowhere to go," Felicia says.

"Hahahaha, so the two people who did not want a hybrid child turned themselves into hybrids, and then they ran to her mate's pack for a new home because they got the same treatment their daughter had to endure her whole life," Blair says.

"We are so sorry for the way we treated you, honey. I am your mother and have always loved you, but I was afraid to show it because of my Alpha status, and I was so wrong. I should have picked you over the pack, but it was my father's pack, and he was constantly drilling it into my head that one day I would have to take over the pack and keep it going no matter what. The pack always comes first. I even left the love of my life for the pack. Your father wanted us to be a family, and I refused because of what my father taught me since I was young. It was drilled into my head. When my father found out about Lucian and me, he sent me away and refused that Lucian could even set foot in our house. He did not want me to invite Lucian into our packhouse as he was a vampire. He died in battle with rogues. Lucian and I were in love, and I got pregnant, but when my father died, I had to take over the pack as they were without an Alpha, and they needed me. I had to go back to my pack, and they accepted you as my daughter but did not want you to become Alpha one day. I had to train my nephew as his grandfather and father died in the same battle as my father, your grandfather did," Felicia tells us her story.

"My cousin is now ready to be Alpha, and they kicked you out. You ran back to Lucian, who was waiting for you patiently all these years because his cold vampire heart loved you so much," Blair says. She does not look impressed at all, and I can not blame her as I know she was traveling between her mother and father, and from what I heard, they did not pay much attention to her.

"He is not ready, but he is all they got. He is a weakling and will not last long as Alpha," Felicia says.

"So you are not worried about your father's pack anymore?" I ask.

"No, because I know the Beta will challenge him and take over. He is a strong warrior and can look after the pack," Felicia says.

"Well, I must admit I admire your love for each other. My parents were never faithful to each other, and they are still not. They have lovers and are staying somewhere in the city. They have not come back to the pack for years. They left the pack for me as soon as I finished my studies and left. I have not seen them since," I say.

"You admire their love for each other? What a joke! We would have been a happy family if they loved each other so much. They say they did not want to get too attached to me because you came to claim me when I was born, but they could have marked each other and joined your pack a long time ago. They would have lost everything back then, but we could have been together as a family," Blair says.

"You want me to kick them out?" I ask.

"No, they can stay," Blair says. She gets up and wants to walk out. I know she is planning something. Is she planning on leaving me for one of her other mates? I do not know, and I will find out soon. They will die if they dare to touch her, and I will not allow her to be with one of them. I sigh. I hope whatever she plans does not involve her other two mates.

"Sit down, Blair," I say. She sits down, and I am surprised she is listening to me. I do not trust her being so tame, and she wants to make me feel at ease and then do whatever she plans. She does not fool me. I have been in for too long in this world to trust the peace. She will not escape me, as I will never allow it.

"What?" She asks.

"We all need to decide what to do. You are my Luna, and you have as much say as I do in this pack," I say.

"Well, I agreed that they can stay. What more do you want from me?" Blair says, and I smile. That is the Blair I know.

"Well, where are they going to stay?" I ask.

"We have houses all over the pack grounds. They can have one of those," Blair says.

"You do not want them to stay in the packhouse with us? You can be a family and get to know each other better," I say.

"No thanks, you. I will instead move and go live in another place. I can always break our bond and move. I am free to do as I want to," Blair says. I smile.

"Don't try me, honey. You will come second. I will not allow you to break our bond. You are my mate forever, and that is the way it will stay. Even if you run away, you will never be free and unable to have another lover or mate," I say. I can see Lucian wants to say something, but he decides against it. He does not want to intervene in our lives, but then he looks at Blair and me.

"Do not make the same mistakes Felecia and I made. Do not let pride stand in the way of your love for each other. I can see you are both fighting your feelings for each other. It is not just Florence's fault that we were not together. It was mine as well. I was too proud to go to her father after he called me a bloodsucker and chased me away. I did not want to fight for the one I loved. I am glad we are together now, but our child suffered the most because we made stupid mistakes. Do not make the same mistakes we did," Lucian says.

"Well, we will not. We will be together forever," I say.

"Hmm, you need to be honest with yourselves," Lucian says. Blair looks at him and then at me, and she seems confused.

"What do you mean our feelings for each other? We hardly know each other, and that will not change soon. We do not love each other," Blair says, and I nod.

"Hahahaha, are you sure?" Felicia asks, looking at the two of us. It feels like they know something we do not know, and I wonder what it can be.

"Yes, we are sure. We are still learning to know each other," I say.

"Well, you are mates. You know your wolves will never let go of each other, as both of your wolves' sides are very dominant. Sometimes the mate bond is not only a bond but also love that you feel, and you blame it on the mate bond. You will both have to be honest with yourselves and look into your heart and see if you are not feeling love and not just the mate bond," Lucian says.

"I think the meeting is over, and you can move in wherever you like," Blair says. She seems to want to escape her thoughts, and I feel the same. I need to be alone and think. Blair jumps up and walks out. I know she will go to her room, and like I, she wants to be alone.

"Well, move in if you want to, or choose an empty house," I say. They get up, smile, and thank me. I call Chris to take care of them as I have much to consider.
