He can't go in!
Sydney pov
We made it to the castle but all I could think about was Grayson.
The castle was beautiful unlike any human castle I had seen before.
"We are here!"
"Yes, we will go through this together Sydney!"
I pressed the locket again. It glowed blue and my mother appeared again.
"My dearest Sydney. I am glad you made it here safely, however the beast will need to remain outside the gates!"
"Mother, why are you speaking with hatred?"
"Lycan can not be controlled. If he doesn't like what I say he will destroy everything in sight. I can't risk the lives of the fae. It was bad enough you brought him here. And what happened to the werewolf?"
A growl erupted!
I looked and Grayson was clenching his fists.
I walked over to Grayson and touched his face.
"I'm sorry…..I"
"No Syd, it's fine. I will wait here for you."
He looked at my mother's blue aura.
"You better keep her safe in there!"
She only nodded.
She then looked at me.
"Come in my daughter."
I walked to Grayson, I held his cheek and looked into his beautiful eyes.
"I will be back, wait for me."
He smiled and I pecked his cheek then left following the blue aura into the castle.
Grayson pov
I was not allowed to go in because I was Lycan! No surprise no one could stand to trust someone so wild and hard to control.
But if I felt her fear or danger nothing would stop me from getting to her. I just barely found her. I will not let her get away so easily.
I could feel her anxiety as she kissed me goodbye. This will not be the last time I hug you or kiss you. We will be together and live long lives. Once I claimed you as MINE!

I was walking behind my mother but my heart was aching for Grayson. Was this the bond he was talking about how come I didn't feel anything leaving Wesley?
My mother's blue aura faded and I was left alone in what looked like a ballroom. Suddenly the doors flew open, my mother raced in. I turned and ran to her, we held each other in our arms.
We didn't speak, just stayed in each other's arms as we cried tears of joy!
"My dearest Sydney, I am sorry I had to leave you but there was no choice. I left you my necklace and prayed that one day you could escape to find me again."
"Mother, why did you fake your death and come here? Why didn't you tell me what I am…"
"Hold on, I know you have a lot of questions but let me explain and then I will answer every question you may have."
"Okay, I will hold my questions until after I hear your story…..but mother why can't Grayson come inside?"
"You really care for that Lycan, don't you?"
"I…...I don't know what I feel honestly. I feel an attraction to him but…"
"You felt one for the werewolf too?" Replied my mother.
"I did but this is different….I feel pain when we are separated. I feel like running to him even though I want to be here with you."
"Oh my!"
"What's wrong Mother?"
"I think it's time I tell you my story!"
Sydney's Mother's Pov
My mother is the Queen of the fae world. Because of this I am the princess! I was nineteen and still had no mate and wanted to explore other realms.
My mother was against me going into other worlds because of our powers. I thought it would be fine. So I convinced my mother and she finally let me go.
Little did I know that I was sealing my own fate by going to the human realm. You see when we are outside the fae realm we have this pull to every male being around us. They are instantly attracted to us and don't know why.
I came into the human realm and tried to keep my distance, especially around male. One day I met this man and I was instantly attracted to him however he was not attracted to me. I kept trying to get his attention but unfortunately other men were paying attention to me which was not good.
One day I felt like I was being followed. I started to walk through the forest to calm myself down. I walked over to the river and put my feet in. As I calmed my body started glowing blue.
That's when he approached me. He was huge and startled me.
"You're not human!"
"What? Who are you?"
"If you don't want the world to know who you are…..you will stay with me and do as I tell you to. Never leave unless I release you!"
"I will not do what you say. I will never be your prisoner!"
He approached and had thrown something at me. I was instantly weakened.
"You are mine….now come home with me unless you want to suffer more!"
I stayed put and as I did he moved further away. As he moved I got shots of pain through my body. Soon I couldn't stand the pain. I was about to give up when something strange happened.
Your father ran up to me and picked me up. I barely saw his face before I passed out from the pain.
