(Drakus)

"Yolanda! I get it. Now can I please go see my--- GAH!"

It was a very sudden pain I felt. My whole body shook at that moment. Quickly I saw Yolanda and the others rush to my side. "Drakus, son, are you alright?", Blaze asked.

Even though I wasn't looking at him and was staring intensely at the ground, I knew he was worried. "I... no. It- it h-urts."

"Guys! Something's wrong!", Yolanda suddenly shouted. "What? What could possibly be happening?", Niya asked frantically. "I don't know! But something's not right!"

I started getting an imense headache. It was like someone taking two knives and stabbing me in the eye sockets. It was a shitty feeling. 

I felt a hand on my shoulder. "Drakus, are you okay?" It was Derus. I groaned and fell on my knees, clinching my sides. "Damn it! No I'm not fucking alright! My mate's in danger and I'm---"

It turned black then.

(Joel)

"Why are you doing this?!", I screamed. At the moment, I'm tied up. Nevus had took me somewhere unknown to me. The room was dark and stuffy. The walls looked as if it went through a fire. I could a faint scent of dried blood. "Nevus? What do you think you're doing kidnapping me like this?!"

Nevus was standing by the fogged window. He turned to me with a pained demeanor. "I'm doing this out of love. I love you, Joelisa and I'd be damned to see you with him anymore." "I thought I told you."

Suddenly, he was right in front of my face. I gasped out of shock. "Nevus?" "Joelisa, has he ever told you how beautiful you are?"

Dumbass... "Of course he has! Drakus' is my mate!" "Not for long...", he drawled. I tensed, feeling something wet along my cheek. Damn! He was licking me! "Hmm. You taste quite excellent, my love."

I whimpered and struggled to get out his grasp. "Nevus... please let me go. I'm not your rightful mate." Nevus chuckled coldly in my ear. "You are.... you just have to realize it." 

I closed my eyes tight and begun to cry. I didn't know what else to do. What could I do? My energy was drained and I was tied up. Fear paralyzed me. A guy that I knew turned psycho because he 'loves' me. No, he was obsessed over me. He couldn't possibly love me.

"I've been realized it a long time ago, Nevus! Just let me go! I want to get away from where ever the fuck I am! You're crazy! Just plain crazy!"

Nevus glared at me. "Joelisa, I won't take such tone from you. Calm yourself."

I sealed my lips. Something about him wasn't right. It just wasn't. Looking down at the darkened floor, I tried connecting to Drakus again. No success. Why can't I feel him?

 It's been like this for awhile. My mental connection with my mate was blocked. Someone or something was cutting it off. 

I heard Nevus chuckle sorely under his breath. "If you're trying to contact that fucker, there's no point. I blocked it."

I snapped my head towards him. "Wha?" Nevus walked over to the tinted window within the room. "Joelisa, all these years I tried to form a bond with you. But I couldn't. Want to know why?"

I didn't answer, but Nevus continued. "I found out I could destroy bonds, not create one. This has drawbacks. I can't bond with anyone who becomes my mate. I can't feel them, hear their thoughts... nothing. With this curse, I felt lonely. I wanted you. And you only."

Nevus turned from the window to look at me with longing eyes. "I intended to make you mine. It was the only goal I had. You were everything I wanted in a mate. Strong, beautiful, intelligent, confident, and everything else in between. But you know what happened?"

I couldn't form any words. I could truly see Nevus' dark side. "You bonded with Drakus. You bonded with that bastard!" I flinched watching Nevus tore down a curtain in anger. "It's like fate is testing me! Seeing if I'm strong enough for you! Isn't my love for you enough?!"

I yelped when Nevus knocked over a table, breaking a dusty vase. I would have ran but I was tied. I was afraid of what he may do next.

He looked at me, his hazel eyes glowing with madness. "It's just wasn't enough. All I ever wanted was to have a bond with you, mate with you, have children with you. No, it was taken from me. You were meant to be mine."

I could feel my tears run down my cheeks. I wanted to say something, but I couldn't. My lips wouldn't move. 

Nevus stared at me with silence for awhile. He suddenly walked over to me and placed a hand on my cheek. He used his thumb to wipe away my tears. "I'm sorrry. Don't cry please."

I breathed out softly. "I'm sorry. I didn't want you to see me like that. I'm just angry."

I didn't answer. My words couldn't form inside me. 

I continued looking into his hazel eyes. My voice coming back for only a second. "Nevus..."

He suddenly went down to my stomach. I hitched. I silently prayed he wasn't going to hurt my babies. But...

He wrapped his arms around my mid-section, burying his head into my stomach, leaning over my lap.

"This, what's growing inside you, is what I want with you, Joelisa. I can hear their heartbeats. It sounds so beautiful." I inhaled in a breath as he held tighter onto me. I could feel his breath on my skin even though I was wearing a shirt. I turned my head to look at the window. I wondered why Nevus would go this crazy. I never thought I see him like this.

"Joelisa..."

I looked down at him to see him much more calmer. I answered him. "Yes?" "I know you won't let Drakus go. I know now. But... if anything... at least give me a child." My eyes widened. Did Nevus just ask me...?

"You want me to what??"

Nevus chuckled. I felt quick fingers untie me. I looked up at him as he stood, holding onto my hands. "It's all I ask of you. I love you and if I can't have you, allow me to have a piece of you to have. I want a child from you. Only you."

My first thought was 'What would Drakus think about this?'

Nevus then pulled me to my feet. I found myself against his chest, his hands on the small of my back. "Please? Just let me have that. If you agree, I'll let you go and take you back to everyone."

I sighed and looked up at Nevus. His eyes were now dull with sadness, something I couldn't stomach myself. "You want a family, don't you?" Nevus nodded. "My sister is all I have, yet I want something more."

I sighed. It was a final decision for me. I might even be betraying Drakus for this, but... "Okay, Nevus. I'll give you a child."

I'm so sorry for the wait! I had some things to work on and such! :P

But anyways....!
