Aurora interjected, her voice riding a fraction.

Marcus let out an exasperated sigh and leaned back in his chair. He ran a hand through his messy hair.

Meredith steeled herself for what he would say next, but he said nothing.

Meredith cleared her throat, "Well…I don\'t know how that is possible but I\'m sure about what I\'m talking about."

Elvin stared at her surprise as well as a thinly veiled happiness.

"You\'re saying my nephew is also your mate?!"

"Yes…" Meredith whispered.

"I knew the boy liked you even though he thinks he is hiding it well but for him to be your mate is actually pretty surprising but what is more surprising is the fact that he has kept it from me and he hasn\'t marked you yet. He must have been in serious pain these past few days."

Meredith frowned at his words, "Why would he be in pain?"

"Once a wolf discovers his mate, every primal instinct in his body would be screaming at him to take her. Right there.

He has to claim her. Naturally, the act of intimacy sealed the bond. And if you put off sealing the bond for long, it could get very dangerous."

Elvin explained, his eyes shifting between her and Marcus slowly. No one moved, or spoke, for quite some time.

"So now what is going to happen at the bonding ceremony if you have two mates? The bonding ceremony is supposed to show the union between the Prince and the princess. The beginning of a new dawn and now this has happened.

Do you think the people are going to accept some lowly human werewolf as their future King?"

Talon finally spoke, breaking the silence.

"So what are you insinuating? My nephew isn\'t some lowly werewolf, Talon. Do you want me to remind you who his parents were?"

Elvin mumbled.

When Meredith met his eyes he gave her a small smile. Relief washed through her as she realized he wasn\'t angry with her for hiding the truth from him. He still got her back.

"When did he snap into his wolf form? Can he even beat a pup in a fight? He is just useless."

Talon said with disgust in his voice.

"Reject him. Then Elvin will send that nephew of his back to where he came from. We have waited long enough for this day to let some good for nothing ruin it. One mate is enough for you princess. You don\'t need a burden-"

Meredith rose to her feet, her chair scraping noisily on the floor.

"Enough!" Her voice rang out, strong and authoritative.

"If you speak one word against my mate again. I will kill you with my bare hands. That good for nothing and useless man is the one I love. Do you know the sacrifices I have made just because I\'m the princess and you all need me to marry someone I don\'t even love for peace!"

She saw Marcus flinched but she ignored it.

"That man is the love of my life and if any of you ever disrespect him again I will have you removed from the council.

I\'m not going to reject him. Never. So the sooner you accept the fact that I have two mates the better. So that we can plan on what to tell the people.

I\'m sure they would understand and be happy that the gods have blessed their future Queen with two men who would love and protect her."

Silence settled across the room again. Elvin gazed at her with wide eyes and raised brows.

Marcus stared at her with surprise, clearly he wasn\'t expecting her to say that.

"Anything else we have to discuss?"

"You are right..." Talon whispered

"I am sorry."

Meredith gave a brief nod and slowly lowered back into her chair, her eyes still on Talon.

Timothe clapped his hands, rubbing them together.

"Well... now that we\'re all up to par...let\'s discuss the next subject. Princess, you need to begin training with your power immediately."

"That\'s my specialty." Elvin chimed. He grinned widely at her and Beatrix couldn\'t help but smile back.

"The issue..." Timothe continued.

"Is that she is the first tribrid. We have no idea what she is capable of.

There is no one left to train her with her new power. We will need to use extreme caution so that she, and no one else, is harmed. She is likely more powerful than we know."

Katrina chimed in, "Yeah but didn\'t the Queen leave behind the Book of Spells?"

Meredith furrowed her brows in confusion, "What is the Book of Spells?"

"Many witches\' bloodlines pass down a Book of Spells through the generations. They contain spells and techniques for their bloodline\'s specific kind of magic.

Your mother\'s family was the most powerful so everyone wanted her Book of Spells. I\'m sure she hid it somewhere."

Meredith nodded, "Well, we have to find it."

Marcus shook his head. "It\'s not that simple.

You are the last of your bloodline... The book\'s whereabouts died with your mother. It could be anywhere in the world... It would be nearly impossible to find."

Meredith\'s heart sank. "Well... There has to be a Book of Spell, at least from another bloodline, since there are still some witches left." She said hopefully.

"Yes. I will speak with a witch friend who owes me a favor." Marcus replied.

Meredith gave him a nod. "Alright, thank you."

"We will start your training tomorrow. Then we will plan on how to go about the mate bond."

Meredith let out a huff of breath of fear. All of this is scary.

"Don\'t worry, Princess. We\'ll start with the basics. We\'ll figure the rest out as we go." Elvin said, sending her a warm smile of encouragement.

"Thank you, Elvin," she said.

He reached out, as if he were going to touch her hand. But a loud snarl from Marcus\' lips stopped him. "Don\'t... Touch.. Her..."

Elvin withdrew his hand, his smile still in place, as he turned to Marcus. "So possessive…..how are you going to share her with my nephew?" Elvin taunted.

Marcus clenched his fist, "We will figure this out. The most important thing is that we both love her."

Meredith\'s face turned scarlet at his words.

"Well that\'s good. If there is not anything else. Meeting is adjourned."
