Chapter 11
Selene POV.
Today is the day. Today is the day. Today I am going to be bound for all of eternity. I was wide awake but my body would not let me get out of bed to get ready. "Selene get up it eight o'clock." I heard Lo say. It was eight. Only two more hours until the ceremony.
"Selene!" They all yelled at me when I pulled the covers over my head.
"Fine." I said getting out of bed. "I will go and shower." I walked into the bathroom and got into the shower. I heard someone knock at the door. "Come in." I called.
"Hey." I poked my head through the curtain and there was Kaylee.
"Hey." I said.
"Sel I am sorry." She said. She jumped up and sat on the counter.
"For what?" I asked her.
"Kissing your soul mate." She said in her matter of fact tone.
"You kissed Jacen?!" I was about to freak out and kill her.
"No." I took a deep relieved breath. "Erik." She said.
"I know that you kissed him but he isn't my soul mate." I told her.
"You both cried blood tears Sel." Kaylee said.
"Hand me my towel." I told her and she did. "Thanks." I wrapped it around my self then got out of the shower. "I don't care what you do with Erik Kay." I said. "He is not my concern nor is he my soul mate and you know that. It is written in the ancient prophesy." I said in my smart alike voice.
"Whatever you say." She said. "Lets get you ready for your big day." She smiled at me and I nodded. We all grabbed our dresses. Zoey, Kaylee, Lotus, Stevie Rae and Aphrodite all got dressed in there black knee length with ruffles at the bottom bondsmaide dresses. We did there hair. Which was down with black and white roses in it. Then we started to work on my looks and gown for the ceremony.
Jacen POV.
We were all ready for the ceremony which was now an hour away. Stark, Apollo, Darius, Eros, Dallas and I were fully dressed and everything. One more hour and Selene's soul would be mine like mine would be hers. My heart was jumping with excitement. "Did you see the coconuts on that girl?" Stark asked all of us guys. We were still talking about that majorly hot stripper.
"How could anyone miss it those things were huge." Darius said and we all laughed. Just the Erebus walked in.
"Hello boys." He said in his warrior voice.
"Hello." We all said and bowed to show him our respect. He motioned for us to sit so we did. He paced us up and down.
"Now today is my daughters bonding and I want all of you to be on your best behavior." He said looking only at me. "That means absolutely no SEX! No kissing! No touching." He was still only looking at me. "Got it?" He said.
"Yes." I answered.
"Now the girls are ready and you must all go and get ready for the ceremony." Erebus said then left the room.
"Its showtime." Stark said. We all left the room and headed to Nyx's temple. Everyone was sitting in there seats. I saw my mother and father. They waved at me and I waved back. I stood in my place at the alter and waited for my mate to walk down the hall.
Selene POV.
My dad walked in. "Hey sweetie." He said kissing me on the cheek.
"Hey dad." I said. He took my hand and twirled me around.
"You look amazing." He said.
"Thank you." I told him he looked at all the girls.
"You all look stunning." He said and I could see some of them blush because after all my dad is Erebus Nyx's warrior consort. "Now are we ready to get bound?" He asked and I nodded. We all lined up. Stevie Rae then Aphrodite then Zoey then Lotus and The Kaylee. Lastly there was Erebus and I. We walked to Nyx's temple.
"Where's mom?" I asked him.
"In the front row with Bliss and Krishna." He said. I nodded we were in front of the temple doors now. The song Stand By Me came on and all of my bondsmaids and bondsmaid of honor went down the aisle. When the music I linked my arm through Erebus'. "Ready baby girl?" He asked me.
"Always." I said. Then I heard Here Comes the Bond and Erebus and I started to walk down the aisle. I saw Jacen. He had a huge smile on his face. I read his mind and he was thinking.
'Damn!'
'Thanks.' I said to his mind.
'Hurry up and get down here.' He mentally laughed.
'Shut up.' I smiled at him. My mom waved to me when Erebus and I passed her. Erebus was giving me away to Jacen now. I kissed my father on the cheek.
"Sel don't settle for less." He said in my ear. I looked at him with shock. "Please?" He begged me and I nodded. The Jacen lead me up the stairs to where a bond priestess was standing. We held each others hands.
"Hello." The priestess said. I nodded my head at her. "We are here in the sight of Nyx to make these two souls one." She said in a loud voice. "We are here because the moon has found its sun and the sun has found its moon." She said looking at me and Jase. Her speech was making me think. Was he really the sun to my moon? "Jacen Krishna Sun Keratin do you take Selene as your mate?"
"I do." Jacen said.
"To have half of her soul as your own?" The lady asked him.
"Forever I do." He said smiling at me.
"Selene Luna Mene Moon Athens Do you take Jacen to be your Eternity?" She asked me.
"Yes." I said. Then I felt my knees give way. I was on the ground. It felt as if I had been kicked in the stomach by Erik?! This wasn't possible because he wasn't even here.
"Selene." Jacen said. Then he had his arms around me. He took my hand.
"Can you please help me up?" I asked him. He nodded and lifted me to my feet. "Lets continue." I said. I still felt that sharp pain in my stomach. I looked back at Kaylee. 'No its not true.' I thought.
'But it is' She answered.
'The prophesy' I said.
'Isn't real.' I gave her a how do you know look. 'Bliss made it up.'
'WTF? HOW?' I asked her. My mind was screaming. She shook her head because she didn't know. I touched my heart. Jacen and I didn't have a soul mate marking. 'Your right.' I thought to Kaylee. She nodded. I turned back to Jacen.
"Okay now Selene do you take half of Jacen's soul to have as your own?" The lady asked me. I looked around the room at all the faces. My mom was smiling at me. 'Do the right thing for you.' She sent to my mind and then I knew what I had to do.
"No!" I said strongly. Jacen dropped my hands and looked away from me. "Jase I am so sorry." I said trying to take his hand back into my own.
"You must be bound to my soon the prophesy says so." Bliss said coming up to me.
"There is no prophesy." I said looking into her eyes. "You made it up." I said and she looked taken back. "Now go back to your seat." I used my powerful voice on her and she did as I said. "Were not soul mates Jase." I said.
"Why?" He asked me. Why? I hated that question. I never knew the answer for it.
"Because I don't know." I told him honestly. "I do love you though." I said smiling at him. He looked away from me. But I caught a glimpse of his face. He looked disgusted in me. "Jase please." I begged him. I wanted his blessing because he was and still is so important to me.
"Just leave Selene." He said my name with hate.
"Look at me." I said and he did. I brought my hands up to his face. "I do love you." I said then kissed him. "If I chose my soul mate I would pick you a million and one times but I can't." I said. I saw tears in his eyes and I felt them rolling down my face. "He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much." I said. "My dad taught me that." I said looking at Erebus who was smiling.
"Go and find him." Jacen said. "I give you my blessing." He kissed me lightly on the lips but it took my breath away. "You will always be my girl." He whispered in my ear.
"I know and you will always be my guy." I told him. I wiped the tears from my face. "I love you." I said again. "For eternity." I added. I meant it. He might not be my soul mate but he was the greatest guy I knew and he was and will always be there for me.
"I love you to." He said then kissed my head. "Now this is killing me." He said and I gave him the I am so sorry face. "Go and find him." He said and I smiled. "But I must say good bye because I am going back to the kingdom." He said.
"Why?" I asked him. Even though we weren't going to be together I still wanted him here. Was that selfish.
"I need to go back but I promise I will come see you on your birthday and Christmas and any other holiday." He said. I nodded. He bent down and gave me one last kiss. "Now go." He whispered in my ear. He gave me a little push and then I was running to my car. I got into my car and roared down the streets of Tulsa. I didn't stop at any street lights I just kept on going. When I got to the airport my car skid to an abrupt halt. I jumped out of the car and ran into the vamp air port. When I came bursting through the doors all of the vamps were glaring wide eyed at me.
"Where is the plane going to New York?" I asked them.
"Selene great daughter of Nyx it is on the run way about to leave." One of the vamps told me.
"Which way?" I asked.
"That way." She pointed her finger in the direction of the west hanger. I ran right by her and out the doors. I was standing in front of a glass window. My mouth was hanging open as I watched the plane carrying my soul mate take off and become a speck of dusk in the big night blue sky. I watched the spot where I had seen it disappear for an hour before it downed on me that Erik was gone and never coming back because I had told him to drop dead. My knees gave out under me again for the second time today. My heart had a stabbing pain in it. I was falling to pieces and everyone in the airport was watching me. I brought my knees up to my chest and hugged the tightly. It was my safe position and no one could hurt me as long as I stayed sitting like that. I started to cry.
"Why me?" I cursed up to the night sky. "Nyx why?" I asked the sky. One year and one week later and I wasn't bound to Jacen and I didn't have my soul mate Erik by my side. I felt the gaze of every single vampire on me and it made me cry even more.
