Chapter 214 - 213

"Are you nervous?" 

"Hell yeah I am. I don't even know if I can do this." Philip said, sitting on the driver's seat as he drove his car. Reina was sitting next to him with Mika in the back seat while Hans was following close behind with two more men of their pack. 

They had started early this morning even before the sun appeared in the sky to head towards the entrance to BloodBound through the rift. Philip had hoped they would arrive first, he wanted for some reason to be there before everyone else, maybe that would give him a chance to find Kai, he couldn't stop thinking about that, he hadn't mentioned it to Hans, he didn't want him to think he was not going to be focused on his work. 

"Don't worry, the little vampire will be following you around anyways." Mika said and Philip looked at him through the mirror of the car.

"You're not forgiven yet." He said strictly and the redhead's head fell back, bouncing on his seat as he sighed. 

"I am sorry!" he cried and Reina chuckled. 

"Yeah, guess what we all are." the girl told him, flipping him off without even turning back to look at him.

"When we get there I need to find Kai, all of you should help me."

"I think he will be there to greet you with the rest of the royal family." Reina said and a smile appeared on Philip's lips. He was looking straight ahead, his hazel eyes filled with excitement as he gripped on the wheel of the car. Just an hour or so on the road and they would be with each other, he would finally be able to meet him and talk to him. 

"Kai is really pretty isn't he?" the Alpha said with a dreamy expression and Mika pretended to gag. 

"I hate cheesy stuff."

"You hate life, period." Reina reminded him and he shrugged his shoulders, agreeing with her. "Yes, he is very pretty, Philip. You will make a great couple and I am sure he will be happy to see you." she said and Philip nodded. He hadn't felt this happy in a while, remembering was not that bad after all, it solved everything. Well, everything that had to do with his thoughts about Kai at least.

"I don't like BloodBound." Mika said.

"What do you like, Mika? Enlighten us." Reina said, turning her head and throwing him a bag of chips. It landed on his lap, the man grabbing it and opening it soundly, laughing with the way he startled her. 

"You won't like BloodBound either, Reina. Philip, am I wrong?" he asked and then began munching on a barbeque chip, his eyes focused on his friend's expression through the mirror. Philip shook his head in a negative manner, signaling that Mika was not actually wrong. 

"It's not a nice place." The new Alpha said. 

"Of course it's not. That horrible red sun, the fact that they have red rivers. I mean the witches went all out when they made this place, it was as if they created the vampire aesthetic. Also their queen, well she has a weird obsession with roses. She also likes black, like a lot, you will feel like you're in Dracula's castle."

"Well, it practically is Dracula's castle." Reina said and Mika scoffed. "So the queen runs the place. I didn't know that. I had read that their king, Aleron, was from the royal bloodline."

"Yeah but he is always away. He is barely in the castle, no one really knows why though." Philip answered her question and the girl nodded, writing that down in the notes of her mind. If Xan knew everything about everyone in BloodBound, Reina would be his female version, knowing every little detail about the werewolf world but also anything that would concern them as a pack. 

"Philip…" Reina said. 

"What?"

"What will you do with Alloy?" his friend asked him and the alpha clicked his tongue. That was a conversation that would easily ruin his nice mood. He looked at her for a second before his eyes returned to the road. 

"Don't remind me of that girl. Please" he said. 

"She is a bit crazy isn't she? Wait until she finds out that Kai is your mate. I mean, we all do love some drama. Do you think Kai will kill her? I think that's possible." Mika said. 

"Kai is not some kind of murderer" Reina scolded him. 

"Well, if she tries to kill him first it will be self defense, not murder. You might not have seen it but these three siblings are scary strong, I wonder what their parents can do. We are the wolves but going there I feel more like a sheep." he told her, emptying the bag of chips in his mouth.

"Did you eat all the chips!" Reina exclaimed, annoyed and Mika smiled at her. 

"Yes." 

"You don't deserve good things, I swear." she mumbled, crossing her arms over her chest. 

Philip didn't say anything. Everyone was joking about her, he was sure no one believed she would be stupid enough to do anything in the vampire's den. Philip hoped so, he couldn't have an outsider ruin everything. 

"Why do you have to be so mean to me?"

"It is what the universe has decided for you."

"I think we should all start being nicer to me…I am not a bad person….I…"

"You will shut up because we are here." Philip said. 

Here, was quite confusing. The Alpha drove the car off the road, parking it at the edge, all this time they had been driving up a mountain. Hans' car stopped right behind them, everyone getting out before them.

"Here?" Reina asked.

"We will jump off the cliff." Mika told her and her green eyes widened in shock.

"What?" she shouted.

Philip turned off the engine and opened his door. It was chilly, still early in the morning. He had a strange expression on his face, their words concerning him. He had been fine at first but now, concidering everything he suddenly felt like something would go wrong. As if things had suddenly taken a wrong turn. 

"Come on. I want to be there first, I need to warn Kai about the lunatics in the event.." Philip said.
