Chapter 50: Sailles

This was a cold, barren, and desolate gaze.

There was neither emotion nor recognition.

There was nothing left of the fiery, shine, and glow he had been attracted to. There was nothing of the girl he knew.

The person in front of him certainly had her appearance and soul, but she was no longer felt like the same girl.

He knew that if he dared to cross her, the anomaly in front of him would not hesitate to slaughter him in an instant.

'What is going on? Why does she feel so different? And what happened to the bond? Surely, with the mate-bond binding us together, she would not be able to bring herself to harm me, right? How could she be so drastically different?'

Luke's mind was in great turmoil as he confusedly looked at the girl before him.

He was not afraid of her hurting him as he had enough confidence in his strength to counter her every strike. However, it was the very idea that she could even attack him itself that unsettled him.

Because such a matter was not possible with the bond-mate. At least, as far as he knew from his thousand years of experience, such a thing was impossible!

Since the mate bond was a blessing privy only to the werewolves, none of the other races knew of its affects on the other individual involved.

But he knew because he had been researching for hundreds of years on the werewolves bond. He kidnapped and ambushed werewolves and creatures of other races that formed something in semblance to a bond and experimented on them in his red room.

Moreover, for the past thousands of years, he had never once experienced or encountered an incident of a werewolf getting attacked by his own mate.

So, the thought of his mate attacking him, made him feel as if the bond was not as strong as it should have been.

Or not complete.

There was also the matter of her behavior and cold attitude towards him.

'Does this mean the bond is not as strong as the one she had with the werewolf or is it not even formed at all?'

He had not seen her behave in the same way with the werewolf, the way she was behaving with him. In fact, she seemed to have been more than welcoming with her bond to the wolf.

'So, why is she behaving like this with me?' He thought dejectedly, perplexed and confused, his dark gaze gleaming with impending wrath.

In the end, he could not understand what was going on, or what had gone wrong.

Unbeknownst to Luke, his mate-bond with Versailles was truly not complete, just as he had suspected.

When Versailles and Ramose completed their bond, their souls fused together, transforming into a black wolf with purple eyes and flame tail.

However, there was a crack in Luke and Versailles souls, looking more like a black mass cloaked over a dull red ball than fusion and transformation of their souls.

That crack not only prevented the two from forming a perfect mate-bond and becoming soulmates, it was also the only thread holding the girl's sanity.

That tiny radiance of light was the thread preventing her from descending into a world of madness and darkness.

A world of pure evil.

The bond was incomplete, but as Luke perceived as well, Versailles really was no longer Versailles.

Because even though the black mass did not succeed in turning her evil, it succeeded in influencing her true nature.

Seeing the man not responding, the girl gave him a disdainful and disgusted look before directly walking past him, exploring the mansion on her own.

Luke watched her receding back, not sure on how to react.

But a short moment later, she reappeared with displeasure on her face.

Luke immediately walked forward, standing in her path until she looked up at him.

"You did not say. How are you feeling now?" He gently asked.

'I gotta be patient. Maybe she is in a bad mood after everything she went through. I have got to be patient.'

He chanted in his mind, patiently looking at her with a gentle gaze.

But the girl did not respond. Instead, she stared at him in confusion.

"Well? Are you going to say anything?" This time, there was a slight anger in his voice.

'No. I have to be patient!'

He really could not understand her.

She looked so comfortable and close with the wolf the moment they formed the mate bond, and yet, she was not only behaving coldly with him, she was also bluntly ignoring his presence

He could clearly feel his collected patience thinning, his cool attitude fraying.

"Who in the Nar are you?"

Was the nonchalant answer that greeted his ears.

Confused, Luke rapidly blinked his eyes thrice, before shock finally overwhelmed his senses as he looked at the cold being before him in disbelief.

He could not believe his ears, he could not believe what he heard.

She asked him who he was? How could she not know him even after they were bonded to each other?

"What did you say?" His voice sounded hoarse even to his own ears.

"Are you deaf? I asked you, who in the Nar are you? This should be about the time you introduce yourself. And while you are at it, tell me why I am here as well. Because something in my gut tells me, for sure this is not my home." She nonchalantly replied as she leaned against the red wall, arms carelessly crossed over her chest.

Luke was now on the brink of exploding.

His head loudly ringing and his heart thumping fiercely. Just as he was about to lose his cool, he heard her say 'something in my gut' instead of 'I know'.

"You do not know who I am or why you are here?" He dumbfoundedly asked, voice lowering into a silent whisper as he stared at her indifferent face.

Since they were soulmates now, should she instinctively, not know who he was?

Should she not unconsciously feel attached to him?

"If I knew, would I be asking you?"

"You do not know who I am? Or who you are" Luke, who was about to panic, suddenly calmed down.

She did not know him. He was not sure if that meant their bond was flawed.

However, if she did not know him, than maybe she also did not know the wolf. Because than, she would not know of their many disagreements and clash in the Eternal Mountains.

How could he, convince the cold and indifferent her, to stay with him?

He was really concerned that after she left, she would recall her memories and go back to the werewolf.

Unless, her memories of herself were also blurred?

Because if she also did not know who she was, than everything could be drastically different!

Because than, they could start over again, right from 500 years ago, when they had just met.

"You really are deaf, are you not?" There was no longer any laziness in her attitude as she straighten her posture.

Her violet eyes flashed with hints of black as her cold gaze seemed to pierce through his being.

Having gained the answer he was anticipating, Luke was no longer bothered by her behavior. Instead, he found it endearing.

She did not know him, she did not know herself. She did not know their story. So, they can write a new story together.

'Our story begins here!'

He grimly thought.

With a slight smile on his pale face, he began with the first line he believed to be the start of their new life together.

"I am the supreme elder of the Bloodsucking clan, Luke. And you are my wife and mate, Sailles. We are newly bond soulmates and were on our way to the Eternal Sea to make our vows to each other. On the way, we were attacked by the werewolf clan. That is the reason why you do not remember anything.. You were injured in the incident and as a result, lost your memories."
