Mistaken Identity

Smashing and crashing noises are coming from outside the room. Getting louder, the closer they get. Cass and the robed man seem calm and uninterested. "What's going on out there?" I ask but I'm met with shrugs in response.

A black furred lycan beast comes through the door. Literally, there is a hole in the door. Splintered shards are everywhere and hang off his fur. "Will, slow down!" I hear as Janice opens the door at the handle.

"My lady, I was.." Janice is cut off as the lycan beast growls. The beast shifts back to human. The robed man offers him a towel to cover his incredible naked body. He refuses. Standing there a sculpture of man.

I'm on my feet, Cass is sitting down looking very amused. The naked man wraps his arms around me. His warm skin and masculine scent is very familiar. Ah yes, the lycan king. The robed man's blood, provided me the sight. I was living in his house as a hybrid.

His lips attempt to capture mine. He is thrown off of me by Cass. No longer amused. My angel turns to me and raises an eyebrow and a smirk comes back to his face.

"What the fuck!" The lycan king growls out. "I felt out bond break, I thought you were dead. I returned back to my original beast" He continues trying to come back to me.

"Bond?" Cass laughs and I shrug in response. "Forgive my your grace, I have recently been reborn. I have no memory of you other than what my friend here provided" I say pointing to the robed man. "Your grace? what do you mean reborn? What is going on? MY HEART FEELS LIKE IS BEING RIPPED FROM ME!!" The lycan calls out, smashing things around the room.

Janice moves her hair from her neck. "Bare your neck and gift her your memory" She says to the lycan. He looks at her confused. I nod to Janice and plant my teeth in. Janice gifts me her memories of everything we've been through. "Thank you Janice" The lycan king remarkably lowers himself down to me. Tilting his head to the side, baring his neck. He looks broken behind the eyes but obedient. To me?

I bite into the lycan and pull the blood. I see his memories of me. I see what I am to him, through his eyes. I feel what his beast feels. I see an entanglement of our naked bodies. I feel his beasts heartbreak as the bond between us breaks..

His beast still believes I'm his mate. "Oh" Is all I can muster when I withdraw. The lycan is looking up at me with adoration and hope. Cass starts to stride over fangs bared. I place my hand on his chest "No, some things are better to remain blind to" I whisper, overwhelmed with guilt.

The lycan scoffs "Like he didn't already know skulking around, watching us. I don't know how you've managed to change your scent but you're not fooling me. What did you do to MY MATE?!!" He roars the end of his outburst.

Change his scent? Cass has been in rest. No one knows of him. Cass is looking back at me puzzled. "Mate?" He asks me cocking a brow. I shake my head "His beast believes I'm his mate. I'm sorry" I say to my angel looking down in shame. He lifts my chin "You've nothing to be sorry for, you didn't know. I wanted you to be happy without me. Not endure the torment we've been through". He smirks. "Are there any others?"

"This act isn't fooling us, have a witch change your hair colour and your scent, you still look the same. This caring act may be fooling her majesty for now but, she'll remember all you've done. Starting with your most recent offence. How did you do it? Tweak a spell? Witch queen ?" Janice demands. Her sass never fails but, I have no idea what she is talking about.

"Janice, what are you talking about? You don't know hi...." She cuts me off. "I guess your vampire side was more dominant. You couldn't resist him. Majesty, you have no queens mark to protect you from him now. You have your charm on, how could he get to you? He shouldn't have been able to haze you" One hand on her hip, the other pointing to the necklace I'm wearing

"Janice, this is Cass. You've never met him before. This is my true Anam Cara" Janice rolls her eyes and the lycan roars. "You've got to be fucking kidding me. He truly has you brainwashed. Change your appearance, change your name. She will see right through it eventually. I know you are still in there somewhere, come back to me"

At this point, Cass has taken a seat and looking at the pair amused. I adore that playful grin. He knows what the pair are implying. I'm completely lost though. The robed man laughs "Yes, the resemblence is uncanny. Prince Nathair never used to look like Cass, but ofcourse when the god took over. He knew who your soul wanted. Even if you wouldn't remember"

I look to Cass, my dark haired angel. I then take a moment to look through the memories that have been provided to me. I burst out laughing. "A classic case of mistaken identity" Cass muses. Janice is not pleased. I know that look. "Janice, I will not tolerate anymore of your tongue. Believe me when I say, that is not Thorne. This is Cass. Yes, Thorne somehow managed to capture me and turn me human. Cass came for me before Thorne could change me. Take a seat and We will explain"

Janice reluctantly sits, The lycan paces whilst the robed man and Cass explain everything. Our story and what led us here. Their minds are blown, I can practically see the brain on the walls "Thorne, there's a god in there. That's terrifying" Janice comments.

"You'll find clothes in the room over there" The robed man says to the Lycan King, pointing to a door. "Majesty, Arlo is missing and Dante is human. He has no memory. He remembers his twin but thats it. I've given him a sedative. He is protected by the wolves" Janice informes me.

Her words break my heart "My sweet boys, we need to find Arlo. If Dante is human, I assume the same for Arlo. My sires. I feel like I'm missing so much. You'll need to fill me in"

Janice places her hand in mine "Come back to the wolf house and we will figure it out from there" I look over to the lycan who comes out fully dressed. "Lykan King I fear the wolves will no longer be accepting of me, in my vampire form. I know they answered to me as a hybrid and I ask a lot of them to get involved in something that doesn't concern them. Could you help me?"

The lycan kneels before me as I sit on the couch. He looks up to me with longing. "They still have loyalty to you, you were part of the pack not just a leader. Regardless of any form your bond with them will always be there. As with me" He takes my hand in his. I feel an incredible warmth crawl up my arm.

"Please call me Will, No formalities between us" The lycan says staring in my eyes. Cass takes my hand from his. He stands up, still holding my hand. He draws a circle on my palm with his middle finger and the blissful feeling returns. My breath hitches and I hold back a moan. If this is how it feels with minimum contact, I can't wait to take him.

"I will get us something to eat, Please all of you make yourselves comfortable. I will be back soon" Cass says then kisses my hand. Erasing the warmth of the lycan. I almost unravel at the feather like kiss.
