The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair CHAPTER 47.0: Old friend

CHAPTER 47.0: Old friendLexus’ POV
We walked into Viv’s office. “True mates?? You're Kidding.” She threw her hands up. “I might have a
mage employed who’s strong enough to prevent even a true mate from being able to know.”
I sat down in a chair in Viv’s office. “I’m not cheating on my mate Viv. You’re either offering me a
position or you’re not.” I cared about Aqua too much to risk losing her. Aqua is all I want, and I finally
have her.
She frowned and sat at her desk. “Fine but I’m not going to stop trying. I only just took over business
for my parents so I probably need you at a high position, that would take a lot of pressure off of m-” She
stopped when she saw a portal opened outside.
I stood up and walked to the window. “Cade? He can’t be here for me since he hates me. Did you guys
plan something?”
Viv shook her head. “I haven’t seen Cade since the full moon ball. One of my employees will probably
let him in.” One of them did and they led him up here. “Can I help you with something?”
Cade looked at me. “I’m here to talk to Lexus.”
I got up. “I’ll be back Viv.” I left with Cade into the hallway. “How’d you know I was here?”
“That’s not important, why are you here?”
“I need a job, Viv’s going to give me a position in her family’s business,” I answered.
Cade glared at me. “You could have gone to anyone, why Viv? Why your ex-girlfriend?”I sighed. “She’s barely my ex Cade. I don’t need to explain anything to you. We’re not even friends
anymore.” I wanted to be friends, but I didn’t see that happening soon.
“Fine don’t explain anything to me but explain it to Aqua. Tell her your history with Viv and why she was
your first choice.” He clenched his fists. “You’re so lucky I can hit you because my sister would feel it.”
Feeling each other’s pain and feeling if either one of us cheated wasn’t something we couldn’t turn off,
not without magic. I didn’t even believe Viv about having a mage powerful enough to disrupt the signal
between true mates. They’d have to be the most powerful mage and I doubt the most powerful would
work for her. Cade walked towards the stairs.
“Wait Cade.” I stopped him. “I’m sorry about Vella.”
Cade scoffed. “Me too.” He left.
‘Were you watching me? Did you send Cade?’ I asked but Aqua didn’t answer. ‘Aqua, you said you
would tell me when you were going to use your third eye to watch me. You don’t trust me do you?’ Why
did I expect her to trust me? I turned off her availability to feel my emotions because I didn’t want her to
know I felt guilty. I didn’t want her to think the guilt came from something I was doing now.
I went back into Viv’s office to discuss the details of my position. We talked about it for a while before
we were done. “Do you really love your mate?”
“I do.” I got up. “More than anything, I’d kill for her.”
Viv chuckled. “It’s weird seeing you like that, I didn’t think you were capable of falling in love. You seem
different too, you’re not as cold and distant.”
I shrugged. “I guess.” I left and went back to the village we were staying in. Aqua wasn’t back even
though I expected her to be. I missed her. I know she planned on spending a lot more time with her
mother, but I missed her. ‘Hey, where are you?’‘I’m with my mom, I’m sleeping over.’
‘I want to see you. Do you think she’ll be fine with me staying over?’ I looked at a portal as it opened.
Aqua walked through and closed it. “I told her I’ll sleep over another time. My dad is there anyways…
They should have their privacy.” She put her bag down. Since she had her bag with her I’m assuming
she used the gem to spy on me. I was way too far for her to see without it.
I hugged her from behind and took in her scent. “I’m going to ignore that you smell a little like your
parents, at least you don’t smell like Cade.” I joked then kissed her neck.
novelbin“I’m sorry about him going to see you.” She closed her eyes.
“I don’t want to talk about that.” I could feel that she was worried. “You don’t have to be worried.” I felt
bad because she never hid her emotions or thoughts from me.
I’m paranoid and afraid that she’ll hear something she doesn’t like. I’ve always valued my freedom and
privacy because it was hard to get. ‘The coven was so welcoming. I’ll have to go back soon so I can
take some jobs. Ray said he’d help me get adjusted so that should save me time and I can still spend
time with Lexus.’ I read her mind as I kissed her.
“Who’s Ray?”
She opened her eyes. “One of the members of my mom’s coven. There are others around my age
there, but he was the only one I met today. He grew up in the human realm too, most of them didn’t.”
She yawned. “If you want to have sex you have to let me feel your emotions. It’s better that way.”
I pulled away. “I think I’m too tired.” I didn’t want her to feel them now because I was jealous. I didn’t
like the idea of her being around this guy. “Don’t feel bad okay?” I said because she did feel bad.She pulled her phone out when it rang and answered it. “Hey Cade.” “Yeah, meet me at the coven
tomorrow.”
‘Tell him I’m going.’ I said to her telepathically.
“Lexus is coming too, is that okay? Okay bye.” I hung up. “He said he was fine with it but why do you
want to come?”
I wanted to get a look at this Ray guy, but I also wanted to force Cade into hanging out with me. “I want
to hang out with Cade.”
“Earlier today, you didn’t answer my question about what happened.”
I got into bed. “I said I didn’t want to talk about it.”
“I do, if you won’t then I’ll spend the night at my Moms.” She threatened. “She’ll talk to me.” I had no
choice.
