are you okay?"

"Alexei,
are you okay?"
"No.
I'm not." He turned, facing her now but still staying by the window.
Keeping distance between them. "If those two... damnable women had not drugged my stew. If you hadn't seen me with
them. If you hadn't been attacked. So many what ifs, and so many lost years.
All this time, we could've been together. We could've had every night together.
Met every morning in each other's arms." He slashed his arm through the
air. "No weeks or months spent wondering if I'd get to see you again. No
missing you with every beat of my heart."
The tears steadily flowed. His canines had dropped, and his eyes held
the unmistakable telltale yellow of a transitioned Lycan. Claws tipped his
fingers. Wolf and man seemed to battle for control, and Lex was emotionally
raw. "So many nights I wished you were there, so I could tell you I loved
you. Every night, I prayed you were safe. And many nights, I asked God why you
couldn't be mine. But. You. Were. And the idiocy of three people cost us two
thousand years of happiness."
"You're
right," she said as she rose off the bed. "I can't understand why any
of this happened. I've questioned the very same thing, and can find no answer.
But we're here together now. And isn't that what counts?" He watched as
she took slow steps toward him, and his expression slowly began to soften.
"In a matter of speaking, you claimed me that night in Portugal, and we've
been together since."
His
eyes momentarily widened in surprise. "Yes, but we spent so many nights
apart. Nothing should have separated us. Nothing." He was right. There was
no sense trying to talk him down when she believed what Lex said just as
strongly as he did. "You mentioned Portugal. Were you following me?"
Nodding
slowly, she now stood in front of him. "Yes. Jules made sure I had control
of my hungers, and taught me how to use my strengths. Once that was done, and I
was confident in my abilities, I went in search of you. By that time, you were
serving the King. And I followed you on your missions."
"When
I saw you, I damned near lost track of what I was doing."
She
smiled, remembering making eye contact with Lex for the first time. The
sensation was electric, the pull of a Lycan mate bond weakened, but still
present. "But you did your job, and then you came to me."
His
claws retracted, and a smile curling his full lips, he nodded. "And then I
came to you." He pulled her into his arms, and embraced her firmly.
"I mourn all the moments we lost."
"As
do I, Alexei. But we have the future."
His
chest shook as he exhaled a ragged breath. "Yes we do. I can't lose you
again, Elizabeth."
"I'm
here now, and I'm not going anywhere.”
