Please Note: This Chapter is from Jasper's point of view.
"Damn it! I fucking KNEW it. How the fuck could they Lie to me for so long and make me feel like I am crazy to hope he is alive? ?How in Hell... ARGHHHHhhhh"
Simon came running when he heard things flying against the stone walls. He knew something had to be seriously wrong to have angered his master, Crowned Prince Jasper Alexander Gibaldi the III (third), who was normally so mild mannered. As he rushed into the room he had to duck to avoid the flying stone debris. This was bad, very bad. At his worst Prince Jasper barely raised his voice when others would have removed someone's head from their body.
"SIRE, Sire Jasper. I am here to help. Please calm down and tell me what is wrong. I am here to Help." Simon Knew well to avoid the angered prince till he was acknowledge or else his life may be forfeit. Simon heard other servants coming and as they came in site he directed them to seal off all entrances and forbid any visitors including King and Queen Gibaldi for it was not safe for them in his state.
"Jasper, Please allow me to Help, tell me what has angered my Lord such as to warrant this"
"They Lied to me Simon, my parents fucking lied to me!" Blood red tears where streaming down Jaspers Face as Simon embraced a broken and trembling Prince. As the prince calmed he began to continue through his sob. "They tell me I am crazy all these years when I insisted my birthed mate was still alive. Saying he died as a young pup and they witnessed it first had. The bruises I would carried I knew where from him and yet they say It is a rare disordered. I was starting to lose hope and believe their Lies. And that is what it all was, L - I - E - S , Lies!!! "
"Sire, with all due respect, calling the Queen and King liars is a grave offense least you have proof. You say you know he is alive and this may yet be. I need to know how you are so certain he IS...
"Simon, I seen him, we dream fasted together. You taught me the Lore that Birthed Mates carry a hidden bond that links the two till their spirits are introduced to each other. After such occasion the the each bare a jewel like encrusted mark Identical on each. I seen His mark on his Chest , It was a wolfs head with a moon in the background, some tribal looking markings and my Families Crest an a sapphire blue the same color as my eyes"
"Sire, The fact you dreamt of something you have wanted for a long time is not proof that it was not a dream. Perhaps you should bath and feed to help calm your self."
Jasper knew no one would believe him. He took his shirt off to get ready for a bath when simon stuttered "wha what color wa was h his eyes "
Jasper smiled remembering the dream fasting and replied "Why? You don't believe me any ways. They were like the purest emeralds I have ever seen..." everything faded as Jasper's mind became busy replaying the dream fasting which was interrupted by the sounds of a metal pitcher containing his meal crashing on the floor. Jasper looked to see how Simon could be so clumsy to see Simon laying faint on the floor.
Jasper was finally able to bring Simon around. "My Dear boy I am so sorry, so sorry I doubted you my prince." Simon brought his hand to the prince's chest and traced the outline of the emerald tattoo. Jasper looked were Simon touch and seen the Emerald equivalent of the sapphire tattoo.
"Simon, I need you to tell me the legend again for I failed to pay attention during your lecture during your history lesson. I remember that there as a time before both would die if not reunited"
"Very well my Lord, but first I have a mess to clean and a meal to replace. While you have a bath to attend to" Simon nodded and assist his caretaker to his feet and gave him a tight hug before slipping into the bath.
Simon was quick to clean the mess and send another servant to fetch a fresh picture of blood and asked it be specifically from the youngest reproductive aged male from the royal live stock. As the servant scurried off Simon prepared to do something he dreaded, he had to tell the king. It was his responsibility to have the wolf pup kidnapped and killed and it would seem he was betrayed now the Princes very life hung in the balance and knowing the kings pride meant that the boy had a small chance of living.
Simon petitioned Seri, the Kings caretaker, for audience and took a set in the royal hall. The royal hall and court had a mixture of architecture form every prominent government in human history though Greek and Roman was most prevalent in the design. It was not long before King Jasper Alexander Gibaldi the II (second) entered the hall with his Queen, Isabella Mon' Tara Gibaldi. Simon was quick to stand then bow till acknowledged.
"Simon, my young friend, please stand. What has you looking so worried?
"My Lord there has been an offences against us, a betrayal that now threatens the life of your only son should we not take immediate action."
"Well Out with it Simon and by all means be quick about it!" Simon could see the anger building and this would be dangerous but this must be said.
"My Lord, 15 years ago you charged me to oversee the kidnapping and murder of the birth mate of prince Jasper due to the priest corruption. How every those hired to performed the rite betrayed us by saying he was surly dead. All these years young Jasper has been right, his birth mate lives and they have dream fasted linking their souls. I have seen the mark myself and it is the Capetian and Gibaldi crest sent like gems." The king enraged backhanded Simon sending him flying 1,250 feet. And hit his knees in tears. For now his son had but one year to live unless the whelp of the Capetian line was found and willing accepted his son as a partner. Then there was the Capetians themselves he had to worry about. For if his treachery where found out there would be war with the Lycans and the last one nearly destroyed both races.
Simon stood head bowed and approached the king and bowed before him accepting his life was now forfeit. The king stood and spoke softly "Simon, My Apologies for that was not meant for you, please stand." Simon stood and his blackened blood oozed from the healing wound on his cheek.
"Simon, you must not reveal the truth of this to my son for surly he shall kill us all and march our people into another war. I have wronged my son, The Lycans, and my people in my pride and know now my days are numbered for one of them will surely kill me for no one has that much mercy. I need you to prepare him for the reunion and send out our best trackers with an unassigned caretaker as I am certain with his 15th birthday my sons mate will have much to learn. Besides it is in our favor to find him before the Capetians do. If I can soften the blow to my people then that I must."
"Aye my Lord. I shall do so with haste and report shortly'
To Simon's surprise the King hugged him and whispered "Please see to the death of the betrayers". The King then turned to his queen who was in tears to embrace her and lead her to their bed chamber.
Simon, sent out three teams per the Kings command and the Council of Assassins . Then returned to Prince Jasper' suite to find him pacing the window and the mess was completely cleaned.
"Prince Jasper, I have notified your father of the occurrence and on his command we have sent trackers to locate your birth mate as soon as possible as him being unprotected leaves you vulnerable. "
"Simon, How does that make me vulnerable?"
"Ok, let me start at the beginning. Have a seat." Jasper took a seat an awaited patiently.
"Birth mates can occur naturally or magically. In essence a birth mate is someone your soul and life force is tied to. The mates are born like twins but of separate lineages or parents. Your mate is an extension of yourself. When you become a fully mated pair you maintain your individual identity but at the same time are like one mind in two bodies. As to where it leaves you vulnerable, once the seal or rather the gem tattoo is revealed you have one year to physically mate with one another and may not be apart for more than 7 human days per 45 day without causing injury or death and what happens to one will happen to the other. This will last till fully mated which may not happen until after a marriage and blessing from a priest of the order of the moon. Once fully mated you will remain connected but without the danger to the other mate. It is common to share special abilities, thoughts, and conversations once physically mated."
" So with him somewhere out there unguarded is the same as you going out without a guard if one of you dies you both die, Which by the way in not acceptable."
The tattoo began to warm slightly, and suddenly Jasper was seeing images and hearing part of the conversation Simon had with his dad and sending out assassins. Nothing was clear but the fact that his parents and Simon where responsible for the disappearance of his birth mate.
"Prince Jasper, are you ok? You look like you seen a ghost." Jasper nodded and advised he want to lay down and rest as he processed everything.
Simon took his leave. He recalled feeling a light warmth on his forehead when Simon blanked out. It is not possible for Jasper to be telepathic as that was a rare gift and only those in the Capetian's lycan Bloodline. Though true the boys birth mate was a Capetian it is not possible to share gifts before being physically mated, never had it happened in the history of the races. Even if not possible the king needed to be made aware of the possibility incase damage control was needed.
Jasper laid in bed while trying to decipher what was with the images and sound clips he picked up on. Why had he seen and heard these. The more he thought about it the more clear it was that Simon was hiding something and his parents were involved. I had to do with supposed death of his mate.
Atlas sleep, hopefully will see my mate again and this time actually speak with him...
