Chapter 242 The BN Mark

     I managed to pull my gown down and rushed towards the shower without realizing that Benjamin was still in the bathroom with me. My eyes turned wide when I noticed he was still on the same spot for a few seconds without moving and I saw it.

   The mark on his neck was visible because I had pulled down his collar when he was carrying me to the bathroom. The BN mark which I have constantly seen whenever the guy in my dream came visiting,the last time he visited, it was obvious and why I had never kept that detail was what I can't explain.

    If Ben is having that mark on him and Mr Faceless does too,does it mean that Ben is Mr Faceless and Mr Faceless is Ben but home?,I was confused. I totally forgot that I was neck under the shower. He turned slowly towards me with a smudged look on his face and I widened my eyes when realisation hit me, Ben was indeed Mr Faceless but how come?.

   Before I could comprehend what's going on,Ben was right under showered with me, pinning me to the wall with his tuxedo drenched.

    "He smirked and raised my chin up.

"What took you so long huh?"

He said in a voice that could belong to one person,Mr faceless.

    "You kept me waiting for so long. I kept getting reborn to be with you but you could not find me. I have missed you every damned day of my existence all because you were near yet so far away. Did you know what your absence caused me huh?"

  He ended his speech with a question and I stared at him lost. He caressed my cheeks and placed a light kiss on my lips, I licked my lips when he pulled away and I continued staring at him. To say I was lost would be an understatement,I was more than lost.

    Instead of getting all giddy that there is a possibility that I had found my mate,I was filled with immense anger that if I didn't hold myself I was going to burst.

    I don't understand how I will be blamed for all of these,how am I the cause of him not finding me?. Is there something I need to know that I don't know?

   The heat on my body has subsided thanks to the shower running down on both of us.

   "Ben,I don't know but why are you blaming me,I can't remember doing anything extraordinary to prevent you from finding me. As matter of fact,I suffered loneliness for over 150 years because you could not find me and you are here telling me it's my fault. If anyone should be blamed, it should be Nature and her sister. No one mentioned to me all these while that it was my duty to find you."

   My anger was going high and getting lost will do me a lot good. I pulled down his hands on my cheeks and turned down the shower. I got down from the tub with my tears flowing and picked my wrecked dress and put it on with no care in the world.

    I came here today to celebrate my nephew's birthday only to find out that my nephew was the man I once fell in love with and had to break up with because I was preserving myself for my mate, which happens to be him. Could life be more fair?.

   I had been in need to find my mate and now that I had found him, it pains to know that I had met him before now and nature played me again.

   "Benjamin, I came here today to celebrate you. Happy birthday my nephew"

   I looked back and he was still standing at the tub with a look of rejection on his face. I looked away and disappeared. I need to get away before I lose it.

 Ben's point of view.....

    I watched as she disappeared and I felt hurt. She rejected me once again.

    I would not say I know who I am until last night when I had a revelation of who I am. Why I was kept in the dark for 30 years is what I can't understand. The BN on my neck meant something and I don't know and when that old woman gave me the bracelet with the BN mark on it,I still did not add any meaning to it. She has told me that the bracelet will guide my life partner to me and that bracelet has been with me as long as I could remember only for me to start looking for it a few weeks back.

   When I find out Nora was the woman my mom talks about,I thought okay that maybe we are not meant to be but seeing the bracelet on her wrist shocked me to my narrows. I had said this morning that after my birthday that my parents will have to tell me all I needed to know about myself which I was looking forward to.

     I looked at myself and realized that I am a completely different person,I was not the man I was yesterday. What happened?, the voice?,the attitude?.
