"Sure. I'll see that I can come up with." He pulled his phone out, really hoping that Amran had some kind of dirt on them. He really didn't like the way the new guy looked at her. He wished that he was a shifter and could leave his mark on her so that he would leave her alone.
"Dude, please give me all the dirt you have on Carpathians! It's a moral imperative."
He nuzzled her back.

Amran chuckled at his phone. "Lol. Here's your dirt. Blood drinkers. Telepathy with the ability to change anything about your mind if they are strong enough. One destined lifemate. If males don't find theirs they go insane and lose their soul and become evil. Need anything else?"

Micah smirked. Score! "Nope, I think that will do it. Thanks man."
He showed Titi the text message. "There you go, that's what he's got. Feel free to ask him anything else." He really hoped that this would scare her off enough to avoid that crusty old, Game of Thrones wannabe.

Titi looked at his phone and read over what Amran had said. He hadn't been completely honest about the lifemate situation. What the fuck? Whatever.
"Ew they do actually drink blood. And that explains my father's attitude adjustment. Wow, the males are really fucked aren't they? Oh well. Sucks to be them."

"Yeah, no wonder the guys around here are all so pissy. But at least now your dad isn't trying to sell you and Ahmed off."
He couldn't believe he was defending the new guy, but he was thankful for that part. He knew that as soon as Soren found out that Micah had no family and no name that he would never approve of him, now it didn't matter.
Cain was walking his morning rounds and saw Titi and the goat snuggling outside, red hot jealousy coursed through him. Why did she still associate with him? Why was she still touching him? He thought she felt the same need for connection that he did. Was he wrong? He started towards the front door, not sure what he was going to do, but it wasn't going to be happy. He stopped himself just as he opened the door... He couldn't do this, he had to keep his head about him. He turned and walked back inside and quickly to another part of the school. One without a view of the front.

"Very true and I am so happy about that."
For some reason her eyes gravitated towards the front door of the school. She saw Cain start to come out and then stop and go inside. He looked livid and she thought he was looking right at them.
She turned to Micah. "Would you excuse me a minute hon? Nature calls." She kissed his cheek which just felt awkward for some reason and trotted off into the school. She hunted Cain down with her nose and finally found him in a mostly abandoned halfway towards the back of the school. She stopped walking and just stood there with her hands on her hips.
"You lied to me."

He felt her approach and his anger calmed, he was turning with a smile on her face, then she spoke and he saw the way she was standing. Shit.
"How so? About what?" He walked towards her, wanting to close the distance and soothe her anger.

She held strong to her anger because for some reason she felt like she might cry if she didn't.
"You told me that lifemate was just another term for husband or wife. You didn't tell me that you only had one and that if you didn't find her you'd go crazy. So I don't think we should hang out anymore."
Those last words killed her to say but she wasn't about to let him lead her on and then break her heart when he found the one. She wasn't a plaything. At this point she had to turn around because she felt the tears coming and she couldn't stop them. Slowly she started walking away from him hugging herself around her stomach. She was likely to be sick.

"What? No!" He ran to her and wrapped his arms around her.
"I didn't lie. I just didn't want to scare you." It was now or never, he couldn't let her run away.
"I have found her. I found her in you. I just didn't want to scare you away. I didn't want you worrying about me or thinking that you don't have a choice, cause you do. I know I'm meant to be yours, but I want you to choose me. I'm so sorry, I wasn't trying to lie to you. Please forgive me. Ask me anything, I'll give you the most thoroughly honest answer I can. I swear to you."
He searched her eyes, hoping that he hadn't lost her already.

She looked up at him refusing to let her tears run. Her jaw was set and she was listening to every word but remained skeptical.
"Me? And I have a choice? What choice? To let you go crazy and evil and kill my family and friends? I have no choice. This is exactly what I was trying to avoid with my father. And now you're pressuring me. What if I'm already in love worth someone? Does that even matter?"
Now she was getting angry. It radiated from her hotter than the sun.

His heart sank and he felt like he could be sick.
"I'm not pressuring you, I swear it. And if you are in love with someone else, then go to him. I'll leave and you'll never have to hear from me again. You have my word that you and your family are safe. I would never hurt you. This is why I didn't want to say anything. I don't want you to feel trapped. I don't! I can leave. I can leave now, if you wish me to."
Did she really love another, could she? She wasn't a Carpathian, she could live a normal life with another. She didn't need him the way he needed her, did she? But if she willed it, he would leave and when the darkness started to take him, he would end himself or ask one of the hunters to do it for him if he was too weak. But he would not make her feel like she was being sold and he would not harm her.
He felt broken and defeated. But he didn't ignore or mock her anger. He understood, this is why he had only told her as much as she needed to know at the time. He wanted to be angry with whomever had filled in the blanks for her, but it wasn't their fault. There was no escaping their curse, one way or another it found them and nothing was easy.

Now she was panicking. The thought of him leaving and her never being able to see him again closed her throat to the point that she couldn't breathe. She involuntarily gripped his arms.
"No. You can't go. I'm not in love with anyone else. I thought I was but everything is different now. You changed me but I know you didn't mean to so I forgive you. Damn it! I'm going to end up hurting him just like every other girl. I don't know what to do."
She hated herself right now. She was going to hurt Micah right after he finally opened up to her. She felt like dying.

For the first time he actually felt for the guy. He did the only thing he could think of. He held her tight and kissed her cheek.
"I will do whatever I can to help. And if you want, as a last option, I can make him believe that you two split on good terms. A mutual decision. It might even be good for him, have a relationship that ended with minimal damage. I would say I could make him forget it all together, but I couldn't bare to do that to anyone, you are too wonderful to forget about. And at least this way it might help to let him see that not everything ends in pain, that it's ok to let your guard down with someone. But I won't interfere without your consent."

The tears ran from her eyes relentlessly. If he could just make Micah believe that they were better off as friends that would be enough.
"I just can't hurt him. He's been hurt too much. Before I met you I would have been happy spending the rest of my life with him. I'm sorry but it's true. I still need him to be a part of my life. He finally showed me what he's been hiding. He's a Satyr. He wears this necklace to help him hold the heavy glamour he needs to attend public school. I don't know if it does anything else but with their past I wouldn't be surprised. Please help him with this. I'll never ask you to do anything else."

"I will do whatever I can. I swear to you, anything to see you happy. Anything at all." He hugged her tight again. She wanted him, she wouldn't forsake him and leave him to the darkness, he wanted to cheer. He would see if he could penetrate the magic his necklace provided. Hopefully it just maintained his glamour and nothing else, otherwise, he couldn't wear it all the time, he would just have to wait until he took it off then make things right.
"Go on, dry your eyes and go on with your day. As soon as I've been able to make things right. I will let you know. And I am only a call or text away and ever at your service." He wiped the tears from her cheeks.
