Chapter 10

Wolves reincarnate. They live hundreds of years and once they die after some time passes they come back. It was in their curse, the vampire curse too. No one had the right to meet with the sweet release of death. All of them had to walk on this earth, an eternity, a very lonesome forever. Kai knew people who were jealous of immortality, wishing they could live forever and when he heard them talk he laughed. There was no point in living forever, there was no joy in am endless tomorrow with no goals or purpose. It was simply a loop, slow and turturing.

Kai never wished to keep his immortality, even during his life as a prince he was never proud of it or acted like he was superior because of it. He hated the constant rising of the sun and the cold embrace of the moon every night. For years and years he felt like there was nothing else to life than waking up and sleeping until he met him.

It was that moment he realized his life could have meaning. That split second where their eyes met for the first time that he knew he could bare this immortality only if he had him by his side. His first and last love, his sworn enemy and fateful lover. He had been all that and his death had been that meaningful.

Kai was scared, he was always scared that he was going to come back. Not because at some point he would remember. Wolves at the age of twenty began receiving scraps of their previous lives. A means to find their mates but also a reminder once more of the curse running through their veins. They were never meant to forget. They should always know that they were nothing more than cursed being walking in the land of the humans. He wasn't even scared of his need to get revenge. He would welcome a gruesome torture, he deserved it after all. That's what he always told himself. No matter what happens to you, it's your fault. He was afraid because if he saw him again, if their eyes met and he didn't see the loving and caring look he had always adored he would crumble.

That was the reason he shouldn't meddle with him. Treat him as someone of the past but fate could be so tricky, it tied them together and no matter what Kai did their connection could not get broken so easily. No matter his fears his wonder couldn't stop. He had to know, if he trully had returned, what he was doing and why did Mika said he was trying to preserve his humanity. That sentence hurt the most. If anything had happened to him Kai dwouldnt know what to do, he lived all this time hoping that he would come back and live a full life. Even if he didn't have his mate he could still be happy. They hadn't met after all in this life.

Yes, to them the most peculiar thing had happened. Kai was destined to be with him. He had recognized him as his mate and his previous life was their first life together. The first life they finally got to meet. It was rare, awfully rare for a werewolf and a vampire to be mates and it was always looked down upon. Especially if the youngest prince of the royal family loved a werewolf. They had done everything to keep it a secret, until they couldn't anymore and his world ended.

Kai was thankful that the door opened. He heard the chimes that signaled someone's arrival and he sighed in relief that his thoughts had been out to a stop. That way he wouldn't have to think of the details. He wouldn't have to bring back the images and the fuller story. He decided to keep it simple on his mind, at least for now, for as long as he could. He was the mate of a werewolf, his kind's sworn enemies. That was the conclusion that led to destruction.

John had returned. He walked inside welcoming the heat of the place. The vampire felt bad for kicking him out, seeing his rosy cheeks snd him rubbing his hands to warm them up.

«Sorry John. It seems that we have many unwanted guests lately» he told him. The young man smiled, shaking his head as he took his coat off for the second time this day.

«It's fine boss. Everyone has secrets. If I could help you in any way I would»

Kai smiled. He was really a good human, it was rare this day to find a good of anything. A good human, a good vampire, a good werewolf, a good witch. It seemed as if all of them had been plagued by something. A disease of the rotting soul.

«Thank you John but I don't think that…Actually» Kai said, changing his mind the last minute. «There is something you can do.»

«What?»

«I want you to find something for me. Make a list of all the five star hotels in this town and if you can find out if a big group of people is currently living there I would appreciate it.»

«Boss, I am not a detective.» the man said and the vampire frowned.

«You said you wanted to help.»

«I did but…Fine. I will ask around. You're lucky I have a friend working at a travel agency. Some times I think the universe works for you.» he said and Kai smiled. He wished that was true. The happiness he would feel if the universe favored him once.

The truth was he could ask Lun. He knew he was working at his own investigation and would be probably doing the same thing as him since Kai provided him with the information. Even if the Alpha had changed the Moonshine pack always favored luxury. If Lun found out though why he wanted to search he would immediately stop him. So he had to do it alone, or in this case with John.

«Start searching then.»

«I will just give me a sec to…»

«Now.»

«Why did I agree to this?»
