Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Chapter 24

“Welcome Luna Iokaste, welcome gentlemen. I'm Lady Camille, mother of this coven," an older woman standing in the middle of the entryway welcomes us, "Luna Iokaste, you are correct. You will not be able to feel your bond with your mate while you are in our realm unless he is here with you. Never fear, we have spells that will help you overcome this feeling so you can concentrate on your studies and training. We will show you to your rooms ina few minutes, but first we need to go over some rules.” :

 

Marco pats my hand, "Give it a chance, Luna. If it's too much of a problem, I'll call the Alpha.”

 

Lady Camille begins as if she didn't hear what Marco just said, "Now, the first thing to know is you will not be able to speak about the things we do here. Our land has an enchantment that will prevent you from being able to do so.

“The second thing is that your weapons and cell phones will not work here, gentlemen. You're welcome to escort Luna Iokaste anywhere you want, but I assure you, the

 

three of you have never been safer. If you need your cell phones, please ask and we will open up aconnection to the outside world.”

 

I look at James and Marco who are looking at each other with furrowed brows. James looks at Lady Camille and nods once in understanding.

 

“And finally, time works differently here. Alpha Regent Bronx Mason will return in two weeks for a visit, but it is going to seem more like two months for the three of you. I understand that it's a long time for a werewolf to be away from your pack, but I assure you, we will do our best to make you comfortable. Luna Iokaste, we will bring dinner to your room tonight. Please have your guards join you for this evening's meal so the three of you can get acclimated. We will introduce you all to the coven tomorrow morning. Speaking of which, starting tomorrow and for the next eight months, we will begin our days at six in the morning. Now, sisters, please show these three to their rooms. I'm sure they must all need some rest." 2

 

“Thank you, Lady Camille. Please, you and the rest of your coven can call me Kas.”

 

“Oh no, Luna Iokaste. You will find that there is power in a name. While you are here, we will address you by your Goddess- given name," she smiles warmly and turns away.

 

"It's gonna be a long eight months," Lex sighs.

 

Bronx's POV

 

They told us they were going to portal, but it was still jarring to see Kas there one second and gone the next. Just like Sister Penny said, the moment they disappear, I can't feel Kas's connection. My heart feels empty and Saint howls mournfully in my head. He doesn't understand why his mate needs to leave.
