Chapter 115

Irma

"Do you really have to leave?" Skylar asks her soon-to-be boyfriend. I seriously don't get how she and Lucas aren't dating already. It's becoming painfully obvious that they are both in love, yet they aren't making the last step.

"I have to." Lucas replies. "The pack needs to hear that a potential war against the Deluxe pack is coming, and even thought we are on different continents, Lucian has the ability to open portals, so...yeah. I need to warn everyone." Skylar looks miserable, but my sister isn't stupid enough to stop her man from leaving. Instead, she peers up at Xavier, his father. "Keep him safe."

Xavier's lips twitch in amusement. "Always"

With that, Xavier, Daisy, and Lucas enter the portal. They leave Spain behind, and a smile spreads over my lips when Jaiden and our parents walk outside of the house.

Yes, I'm finally alone with my sister which means I can ask her for the favor I need of her: try and convince her to open a portal to my fated mate.

And yes, I know using Skylar's powers comes with its risks, but what can I say? I'm tired of being single.

"Sky?" I tap her on the shoulder.

She turns around and cranes her neck to meet my eyes. My sister is a lot shorter than I am. "Yes, Irma?"

"I need a favor," I say, looking away from her curious gaze and toward the spot where Lucas had just disappeared. "A big one."

A small frown forms on Skylar's face as she studies me. She crosses her arms as if to protect herself from whatever I might say. "What is it?"

I take a deep breath, steeling myself for her response. "I want you to help me open a portal. To him." I don't need to specify who "him" is. She knows how badly I want to meet my fated mate after the discussion at the dinner table. The longing is gnawing at me.

To my surprise, she doesn't look shocked or worried. Instead, she narrows her eyes at me and asks in a challenging tone, "And why should I do that? You know there are risks involved."

"I'm willing to take them," I tell her. "Because the risk of never meeting my special man...of never having him in my life is greater to me than any danger I might face."

She looks at me for a long moment before her lips finally part in a heavy sigh. "I can't control my powers, Irma. What if I end up sending you into the ocean or something? Our parents would murdernovelbin

"Unlike you, sis, I'm a hybrid-I'm almost impossible to kill. So believe me when I say I'm ready"

Skylar purses her lips, contemplating my words. The silence that falls between us is thick and heavy, brimming with potentialities of the future. "You're sure about this?" she finally asks, her eyes sweeping over my face as if searching for an inkling of doubt.

"More than anything," I assure her, my gaze steady and unwavering under her scrutiny.

She shakes her head slightly, a reluctant smile creeping onto her face. "Okay, Irma. We'll do this. But you have to promise

me you'll be careful."

I grin at her, feeling a rush of excitement tinged with anxious anticipation. "I promise."

"Alright," Skylar lowers her tone. I will try to open this portal, but let's do it in the forest, okay? That way, our parents won't know what's going on... I also need an excuse if they ask where you are."

"Eh, just tell them Alpha Max must have opened a portal already because I caught the scent of mermaids, and now I'm trying to form an alliance with them." "that could work." Sky scratches her chin.

"It will," I assure her and grab her hand. I'm too impatient to waste time in our kitchen. Come on, let's open already."

"Alright," Skylar seems to have given up on me and releases a slightly defeated laugh. "Let's get this over with."

We leave the house and make our way towards the forest. The sum is beginning to set, casting long, eerie shadows across the landscape. It's as if even nature itself is waiting with bated breaths.

"This seems like a good spot," Skylar says as soon as we are far away from the house in a small clearing surrounded by towering trees on all sides.

"Yes, it looks nice. Now hurry up and open that portal!"

"Oh my god, will you just chill?" Skylar rolls her eyes, but there's a hint of a smile on her face. "My magic needs a little time to work...if it will work."

"It will," I wink at her. "You're the psychic wolf and very powerful. I believe in you." Instead of replying, Skylar takes a deep breath, stretches out her arms, and closes her eyes in concentration. I can almost sec the energy pulsing around her, a palpable electric tension that makes the air around us hum.

A few seconds pass in silence, and then I feel it-a subtle shift in the air as reality is bent according to her will. A bright light sparks into existence and then grows, creating a doorway right before e our eyes.

"Okay," Sky murmurs as she opens her eyes. Her exhaustion is apparent, but there's satisfaction in there, too-the kind that comes from knowing you've done something impossible. "Off you go, then."

I hesitate for a moment, staring into the swirling vortex of the portal. This is it-the gateway to my f

"Thanks, Sky," I say, squeezing her hand one last time before letting go.

"I hope you know what you're doing," she warns softly before stepping back. "The last time I tried to travel somewhere, I ended up in the future."

I grin at her. "It will be fine."

"I hope so," Skylar says. "I know for certain that you're going to meet your mate, but I don't know how the two of you will make it back here."

Those words surprise me. "You know this is going to work?"

She laughs in amusement. "I had a vision of this happening. Irma. Do you really think I would send you off if I didn't know this would work?"

I gasp.

"But you were giving me a hard time! Why would you do that if you knew this was going to work, you as*hole?!"

"Because I'm your sister, and we always give each other hell?"

"True," I sigh. "Well...knowing you've seen this happen makes me feel less scared."

She just continues to smile. "You have nothing to worry about. Your mate is nice...a tad bit mischievous, but I'm sure the two of you will get along just fine once you get to know him. Just be warned: he doesn't speak English at all."

"He doesn't?!"

"Nope," she snorts. "He isn't from here."

I gulp at that. "F*ck..."

"It will all work out.

"If you say so..." With one last look at my sister's amused face, I turn towards the portal and take a step forward. As soon as I cross the threshold, I feel like I'm being stretched and compressed all at once.

And then I'm stumbling out from the other side of the portal and into a place that is no longer Spain.
