Next morning 7:05 AM
"Be civil. Be civil. Be civil."
The words I kept muttering to myself until my bastard of a mate came
'Ding dong'
Shit spoke too soon.
I opened the and there he was in all his glory smiling.
"Hi."
I just glared and walked away from the door and to my kitchen. As I did that I heard the front door close and footsteps follow me.
I sat down on the island and watch him as he enters. looking for me.
"Over here."
He waltzes over to me and stopped right in front
"Am I gonna have my explanation now? "
"The reason I rather talk to Vincent is that he is different. He didn't do those things you did. He's innocent out of all of this even Ximena can see that but I can. And for your second question, I didn't kiss vincent back because he's not my mate."
"But I am your mate."
"No your not. Not until you make up for all the shit you've done to me these past years. You have hurt me! You broke my heart! I loved you! You did this all on your own self."
"You love me."
He had this Cheshire smile on his face well half a Cheshire and let me say it was a cute but traumatizing smile.
"That's all you heard was 'I loved you'. "
"No, but you don't love me anymore."
"I didn't say that. I didn't say I didn't love you but I did love you once and that love went away when you hurt me. So I'm telling you to fix the sit that you caused. "
He nodded then said
"I'll fix things just give me time, please."

I did the one thing I haven't done since I've gotten my powers. I made him remember something from the past.
"All those memories you've just remembered that's what you need to work on. Because I can only give you so much time before you break me again. "
"I won't I promise."
"Don't make promises you can't keep."
He puts his head down in shame but then he spoke once again
"I'm sorry for what I put you through. Really I am sorry. I thought I lost you but when Jimmy called me 2 weeks ago I was furious then happy but sad the next minute. How can I not know that my mate is still alive? "
I didn't know what to say or what to do. So I spoke what was on my mind.
"Why come looking for me is my question. STOP! I don't want the answer. You ruined things how am I supposed to trust you."
I'll do anything, just say the word ad he made and huge mistake with that.

Gray's Crucible
“The value you have brought to trade is immense, more than a thousand fold what any other traveler to Crucible has ever produced. More than even I produced during my journey.” The old man paused for a moment here, seemingly reluctant to continue. After a few seconds he begins again with weariness creeping into his voice. “As the Messenger of Crucible I have received the value of your life. You shall be awarded a body with potential equaling the value you have brought to this place in accordance with the laws of the higher realms. Now you shall depart for Crucible, but first; I, Jaze, will give you some advice.” The old man, Jaze, he had named himself paused a time. Time enough that Gray began to wonder if he was still present, when he suddenly continued in a low and serious tone, “You will undoubtedly have great potential Gray of Earth, but it is still only potential. What could be is not necessarily what will be. If you step foolishly in my world, if you can not live up to the potential you have bartered for, Crucible will crush you mercilessly and tear away your very soul.” A thought, cheerful and light was heard from Gray before his presence was sent rocketing away like a shooting star. “I’m looking forward to it.”
