Chapter 225
Davyna's POV
Holy. Fuck.
My mate loves my twin Caleb and I have returned to the group now from our small chat upstairs. and I'm just trying to process hat just happened as the rest continue on talking and drinking. Our conversation was actually nice, and learning Caleb is a werewolf was interesting to say the least. But when Caleb got close to me, teasing me, its like my whole body just shut down to his presence. Aside from my racing heart that is. I don't know what to take from this. Am l attracted to him? can't understand why would be at all. I still feel this uncontrollable rage that's under the surface, but when I'm with Caleb, and even Vincent, it's easier to let go
and just relax.
This is so damn weird, but it's killing me. I don't know what the hell is going on and its just more answers I don't have. I guess I'll have to take
up Caleb's offer on asking questions. Maybe it can shed some light. I'm definitely only asking Marcella about this part though. I don't need to be admitting anything I may or may not feel for those two. I snap out of my inner monologue to see everyone staring at me.
"Did I miss something?" Vincent clears his throat,
"We were thinking of heading out. It's getting late. Are you okay with that?"
"Yeah. I'm actually feeling pretty beat. What about you Sage?" I look at her and she's passed out cold in the booth leaning on Marcella. I can't hold it in. I burst out laughing. Caleb and Vincent snicker slightly at my outburst.
"When did she fall asleep?" I say through my bouts of laughter. Marcella chuckles,
"About 20 or so minutes ago. We should get her back. I'll carry
her if you, Vincent and Caleb want to call the car."
"Sure." Caleb says as he pulls out his phone while him and Vincent get up. I follow behind them still snickering, and then Marcella follows behind me with Sage over her shoulder. God I should take a picture.
Wait, I will. I turn around and snap a quick one while grinning widely at Marcella.
We all get outside and wait for the car.
"We might as all go back together." Marcella states and we all agree. Once the car arrives, we pile in. Marcella puts Sage down first and then sits beside her, followed by me, and then Caleb and Vincent sit across from us.
The ride is pretty silent, so I decide to steal glances at both Vincent and Caleb every once in a while. Caleb is texting on his phone, and Vincent is looking out the window, his blond hair coming ever so slightly out of his hair tie and he seems lost deep in thought. He catches my glance and smiles at me slightly. My heart skips a beat, but I manage to smile back a little. I then see Caleb smile out of the corner of my eye having looked up from what he was doing.
Why do I feel like this around them both? It's like I just want to place myself right in between them and just look at them all day long. Totally not my normal means of behaviour. Do they both like me? Aren't they best friends? That doesn't seem Davyna, no. I mentally face palm and focus on looking out the window on my side to distract myself. There's no way they'd ever be in a
relationship with me.
The car pulls in moments later and we all get into the elevator and
Marcella carries Sage who is still out cold. Once on our floor, I walk to and open my door and they all enter.
"She's sleeping in my room, Marcella. You can just put her on the bed."
"Sure thing." Then she disappears into my room and comes back out a
few moments later.
"Do you need anything before we retire for the night?" Vincent asks
looking at me.
"No I think her and I should be fine, thanks."
"Think you'll be up for a workout with us tomorrow?" Caleb asks. I shoot him a look, remembering his teasing earlier. Don't show weakness!
"Definitely" I reply with a sly tone.
Smirking, Caleb goes and opens my door."We'll come get you when we're ready tomorrow. Sage can hang with Marcella down there with us she's up for it.
"Sounds good. See you guys tomorrow. I take one last glance at them
as my door closes. I sigh heavily, get changed and relax on my couch shortly after, ready for sleep to take me.
What a night.
Vincent's POV
Davyna's door clicks shut, and I walk alongside Caleb as we get to
Marcella's suite.
"What did you two talk about upstairs?" Marcella asks as she playfully waves her finger in Caleb's face. Caleb clears his throat,
"A few things. but she opened up to me a little bit, She had no idea I was a werewolf." Marcella's jaw drops,
"Really?" Caleb nods,
"She told me she newer bothered to learn much about supernatural and has been too occupied to even try." I chime in.
"It seems there's something else that's bugging her that's different then this thing with Asher too. The last time she saw him .Tonight she just was fearful. Two completely normal emotions considering what's happened, but something doesn't add up quite right. Not sure why but I feel there's something we're missing.
before tonight, she was more agitated and and angry. To
l agree, I'm sure it will come out. But if there's anything I know right at this moment, is that she does feel the mate bond, but its not as strong as say Vincent or I feel it, but it's there. So we need to decide what the next step is." Caleb says as he rubs his eyes, showing the exhaustion that has now crept up on him.
"Yes, but it can wait until we're rested and ready to tackle it. We don't need to figure it out tonight."
"Il help you both in anyway I can. You know that." Marcella says as she unlocks her door.
"We appreciate it, goodnight Marcella." She smiles and waves and then her door closes.
Caleb and I walk down to our own doors, say our goodbyes and head in to rest for the night.
Caleb's POV
Next Day....
My eyes shoot open and I roll over in my bed to check the time. 9am. Last night was interesting to say the least, but hearing Davyna full out laugh at Sage falling asleep was the highlight. She seemed genuinely happy. Also, seeing her and Vincent have that little moment in the car on the way home, touched me in a way I didn't think I felt anymore. I know we can make her happy
But.. she needs to want us to first. I sigh and climb out of bed and mind-link Vincent. He accepts the link immediately.
C- Yo, you up? We're working out with Davyna today.
V- Yes, I've been up for bit of time now already, meet you at her door in say, 10 minutes?-
C- Sounds good. See you.
I break the link and change into my workout gear, just a pair of black sweats and a grey tank. I tie back my unruly wavy hair. I really need to get it trimmed again, I dislike it in my face. I pack my phone, headphones and water bottle in my bag and head out to see Vincent waiting for me
"Ready?" He asks.
"Yeah, let's grab the girls." We knock on Marcella's door and she answers immediately.
"I'll meet you guys down there, I have to feed first" Vincent throws her a bottle of blood.
"Got you covered."
"Of course you do." She laughs and grabs her workout bag and steps
out as I watch her chat with Vincent, I remember how the three of us came to be Vincent and Marcella are in the same clan. Vincent's parents adopted Marcella into their family after her parents died, so she's kinda like his sister. He looks out for her and she does for him, without question. After l joined the group, she accepted me just as easily as Vincent had, and she definitely rounds us out. Vincent can be too serious, I can be hot headed and she's most often the voice of reason. She's the sister that I never had, and doesn't hesitate to call me out on my shit when I'm being unreasonable. We all just clicked, and that was it. Now we're
adding Dayvna into the mix and it's undoubtedly been interesting so far. Speaking of, we all stand outside her door and we can hear Davyna and Sage yelling at each other, the walls and door clearly not muffling any of the sound. I hear Sage first.
"Davyna Blackmoon, you DELETE THAT HORRIBLE
PICTURE NOW!" I can hear Davyna laughing.
"Sage Witherson, will...NOT delete it. It's too good!"
'I wasn't even that drunk! Did you forget that I travelled a long time to come visit you! I was TIRED!"
"Then we shouldn't have gone out, that was your choice!" Davyna
continues to laugh.
"Shut up!"
I knock on the door, trying to stifle my own laughter. The door opens and it's Davyna. She goes to speak and then a white throw pillow from her couch comes soaring towards her and hits her in the back of the head with a muffled thump. "DELETE IT!!" Sage yells again from behind her somewhere in the u
he suite. Davyna laughs again and finally speaks. "Come on in guys, Sage is still getting ready."
The three of us walk in and Davyna picks up the pillow near the front door and throws it back onto her couch. She then starts to pack her items in her bag as Sage comes out of the bedroom.
"l can't believe you guys let her take that god awful picture of me!" Marcella replies,
"You were out cold and I was carrying you when she took it. I honestly forgot about it until now."
"I'm not going to post it anywhere Sage. Relax, here." Davyna grabs her phone, holds up the screen to show her and deletes the picture
"Thank you, finally. I don't know why we're friends." Sage says jokingly.
"Oh shut it. You love me"
"That's to be determined." Davyna gasps in fake shock and then laughs.
"You ready to go yet, these guys are waiting,"
"Yeah yeah, let's go." Sage walks past us and opens the door and we all follow behind. Davyna comes out last. Sage comes up to her and grabs her arm and they start to chat. Sage really seems to make Davyna more comfortable. The rest of us walk in silence as they chat the entire way to the compounds gym. The place where I saw Davyna for the first time.
