Dragon Prince Fairy

Chapter 13

Tyr

Spending the time away from Aurora was hell, I packed up some clothes and said goodbye to my family and that I would be in touch, I just had to keep an eye on her and keep her protected and find the cure. Walking down I went to my grandparents' cabin to see if they had answers and to say goodbye to them as it was the right thing to do, what I didn’t expect was Aurora to be there in the forest.

When she was in the cabin, it was hard not to look at her, I know if I stared at her Draco, hell, even me, would run to her and never let her go. Even if she hated us. I had to shower after the flight as I still smelled of Aurora. It was torture but a good practice. Maybe she was up this way to finally reject me and find her mate, her chosen.

Grandad spoke with me through the mind link. He told me she had read the book and seemed shocked. She didn't know the curse details. When I came to the lounge I just couldn’t look at her or speak, my heart was in pieces bleeding out of my chest ad going through the floor. Aurora ended up having an early night. I wanted to speak to her when she was sitting with us, but I couldn't as I'm not sure my voice would hold. I feel like I am walking a tight rope.

I went to check on her when I hit the creaking floorboard. Aurora woke up. I apologised for waking her and turned to leave when she asked me to wait. When she didn't speak, I left. I had to walk out and turn into Draco to get away. I needed to get it in my head she is not mine.

I need to clear my head. I couldn't wrap my head around what to do. I need to accept that this is my future. Somehow, I will get to the point of being able to smell her and see her without breaking. I hope.

Seeing Aurora left the cabin and started to walk downhill, I heard her crying. This broke my heart. Why was she crying, did I upset her by not talking to her? I was just giving her what she wanted. My mum and dad were at the bottom of the hill waiting for Aurora. I wanted to step in, but at the same time, I wanted to see what they were doing.

My mum has been upset my mate didn't accept me but understood. She could have shied away from dad, but she gave him a chance, and they have never looked back. Dad's eyes flicked up to where I was, so I landed. I changed back and asked what they were doing.

Aurora stood staring at me. Even when my parents left, she looked uncomfortable. Do I make her uncomfortable? Is that why she didn't want me? Not able to keep my raw emotions in check, I turned my back on Aurora. It was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life acting this way.

Erik came out of nowhere and patted me on the back, pushing me uphill to go back home. Maybe I am not ready to protect Aurora. Maybe I should give it a while before I can watch over her. Heal my heart first. Making my way back to the tribe, Mum and Dad were waiting for me. I went to my room and just didn't feel right. I went to Elin's room, which connected to mine. I miss my twin so much. Knowing Elin, she would be up and getting ready for training. Maybe I should go to where she is and spend some time there.

The sunrise was in a few minutes. I quickly called her. I was hoping she was still in the pack house. Luck was on my side, and the

Beta got her for me. when I heard her voice, I broke, I told her all about it how my mate had rejected me without the words. I wished my twin was here. We had grown up close and she always had good advice and words for me.

Elin knew that when I made up my mind, I never changed it. She begged me to think on it and not push Aurora away. I told her I hadn't pushed her away, I was just respecting her by leaving. She wants freedom, and that is what I am giving her.

We had time away from each other and nothing, now she came here and got her answers she has gone again.

After speaking with Elin, who wouldn't tell me about her mate, who is finding it hard to accept her, we hung up. I laid down on Elins bed, hugging the teddy I had as a boy an elephant, I started to fall asleep.

Before sleep took me, I prayed to the Goddess to help my twin win over her mate. For my mate to be happy, to take away this pain in my heart. To help me heal.

I needed to get strong and if I do decide to stay, I can’t be this way. How would I protect everyone and help them if I am a mess. I need to wall up my heart to make sure I do not get hurt again. My younger siblings will have to carry on the family name as I will never be with someone. My heart now feels too bitter. If I am not good for my mate now, what would make me good for my second chance, what if she turns out to be just after the crown. I couldn’t do it.

I slept through, no dreams to haunt me and when I woke up, I felt worse, as if my body was getting ready to shut down. Did she do the rejection when I was asleep? I didn’t feel different. I still felt the bond there. I started to get angry with this, why hasn’t she rejected me already, does she want me to suffer because she has a curse on her and I have to suffer with her.

‘Don’t talk about our mate like that Tyr, I know you are hurting but she is not doing this for what you think.’

‘How do you know that Draco, she doesn’t want us but is hanging onto the mate bond. Maybe she wants us to cut it.’

‘Don’t you dare human or I swear I will make your life more hell than it is now, Goddess as my witness.’

This made me slump more, Draco is right I am being too harsh on our mate. It isn’t her fault she doesn’t know. With the curse, she will never know, and I am just taking it out on her in my head. It’s her parents I need to target. They are the ones who did this to her. The sick bastards they are. If I only knew how to find them.

Draco and I decided this was our new mission. I don’t care if it upsets Aurora, they done this to her and have pissed off the next dragon king. We planned together to find out where the fairy people went and go from there to find them. I will enjoy taking my anger out on them. I will find her chosen mate and get some answers from him also.

As for Aurora I could get our people in the town to give her a job and keep an eye on her that way so she is still protected. This gave me some hope and life to myself that I will not be sat sulking and waiting. I needed to do something, and this plan is just perfect. I jumped out of the window to go back to my grandparents, I will see what I can find in the books they own.
