The Siren's Vampire Soulmate

CHAPTER 7

MATTHEW: 

After I left her, I went home. Trying to forget how great my beloved tasted. She tasted so much better then a normal human, probably because of who she is to me. I kept trying to refocus myself as I went to Izzy's office. She mind linked me earlier today, saying she needed to talk to me about something important. I knocked, but then walking straight in. Izzy laughed. "In a bad mood Matt?" Once she saw my face she stopped laughing. "Matthew what's wrong?" I sighed. I couldn't possibly hide it from her, she'd find out anyways. "Zapphire found out about me today, I didn't want her finding out this way, but..." I paused. Thinking about how Tori acted with her, was she actually into Tori? Is she still going over to her place? "I lost control, Izzy, I bit her, and forced a kiss out of her. I'm ashamed, I took advantage of my beloved, and in doing so I sealed my own fate of having only to feed on her." Izzy come up to me and hugged me. "How did you lose control son?" Izzy asked. I shook my head, and then she slapped me upside the head. "Okay, okay." I said backing away from her and rubbing my now sore head. "She made friend's with Alpha Lucas's daughter... I got defensive, and protective over my beloved. After hearing she was heading over there after school today. Anyways we ended up fighting, I kissed her, I felt she was almost unwilling and basically I ended up biting her, and she bleed... well you know the rest." Izzy sighed, and nodded. "Matthew, she is your beloved, I believe she will come around eventually. The Goddess does not make mistakes, remember that. Everything will work out the way it's suppose to." I nodded and took deep breaths. Trying to calm myself all over again. "So what did you want to talk about Izzy?" We went to go sit on the couch and she stated talking again, in a more serious voice. Oh Goddess, something is up. "So, as you know. I've been thinking about stepping down as Sire, I've grown tired and old." I laughed. "You could never be old Izzy, I replied. Trying to break the professional tension. She rolled her eyes, and continued, "You're to sweet Matt. Anyways, I've discussed with Sophia. She doesn't want to be sire." Izzy said, and I become confused.  Sophia did not want to be sire? But then who? Who would be the new sire? What will happen to our coven? Will the new sire be cruel? Will he treat us as family? How Izzy always has? I heard Izzy laugh, pulling me out of my worried thoughts. "Calm down Matt! You already know the new sire, if he accepts." I thought some more. Trying to think of who in the coven would deserve such an honor. Izzy punched my shoulder playfully. "Don't hurt yourself Matt, calm down. I was thinking you could take over my position as sire, and I don't want any bad comments about yourself from you Matthew. You're my best warrior, you've proven to be a very strong vampire, even though you're not a pureblood, but most importantly you're caring, loving, and a giving vampire. I know I can trust my coven to you, the elders have even already agreed to it." I took a deep breath. What? "Izzy, I am not biologically your son, and I am not a pureblood. How could the elders agree to this? Also Sophia has every right to this title." Just then the door swung open. "As my mother has already explained Matt, I do not want it. And again, as my mother has said, we've talked to the elders, you being the adoptive son and second in command to Sire Izabel Water's, have every right to her position, if I do not want it. You've proven yourself to be an amazing vampire, made or pureblood does not matter in the eyes of the Elders." Sophia explained with a huge smile, on her face. My eyes went wide, when did she get back? Are you just going to sit there all night Matt or are you going to hug me?" Sophia asked, still smiling. I went up and hugged her, when we let go. Izzy was already back in her desk. So Matt, will you let me plan the ceremony my son? To take my place as sire?" I looked back at Sophia, who nodded, and jumped up and down clapping her hands together. "This coven is my family, and I would be proud to take over as sire." I said, placing my hand over my dead heart, and bowing to the current sire. 

Once we all discussed important details, Sophia and I went back to my room, where she was currently laying down and I was on the edge of the bed. My room was pretty huge, but simple. My king sized bed, didn't even take up much space, it sat in the middle of the room, with a decent size plasma screen tv was right across from it, a bookcase by the left of my bed, my bathroom was next to the tv on the right, it was decent size, white, with splashes of light blue, and  jacuzzi tub. Lastly to the left across from my bookcase was my walk in closet. My room didn't have much, I didn't spend much time here, since vampires don't sleep. Since after all we're dead. The dead do not sleep. Sometimes I zone out but that's pretty much it. I had just got done telling Sophia all about me and Zapphire, she listened and pretended to care about her, I could tell she didn't really care about Zapphire, but she tried and that's really all I can ask for. "I'm so happy you finally have someone in your life! I was getting worried there Matt!" She said and we both laughed. "I couldn't help it, you know I've kissed a couple women though, but nothing felt right Soph, why would I continue with women I didn't truly care about, and I had to force some type of attraction? I don't understand the men in the coven who just sleep around for the fun of it, until they find their beloved." Sophia shrugged at that. "I think it's just because we can wait so long for our belolveds, you found yours so young. Most of us wait until we're hundreds of years old." I nodded at that, in understanding, somewhat. I wanted my beloved to be my first for everything, sadly I couldn't even give her my first kiss though, I don't even remember my first kiss, it was when I was human. I can't remember her face for whatever reason. But I guess it's true, human memories fade. "Are you obsessing over your first kiss with her?" I groaned. "NO! But now I am, I haven't kissed a women in over 50 years, was it even any good?" Sophia just laughed. "Well if I remember correctly....." I threw a pillow at her. "Remember we said we'd forget about it!?" She threw the pillow back at me. "Remember Matt, she's your beloved. I'm sure everything happened the way it was supposed to and I'm sure she loved every second of that kiss!"
