“No, we didn’t.” Hunter says frowning.
“I felt it when the light went through us.” Kai adds.
“It must be our Soulmate Tattoo,” Levi states, “the book mentioned something about the Soulmate’s Bondmates getting a Soulmate Tattoo but not as intricate as the Centrum, since they carry the bonds of all their Soulmates and the Bondmates only carry the bond of their Centrum.” He explains.
“It’s faded though, that can’t be right?” Maverick questions.
“I think it might be time to call Mr. S, he obviously knows more about what’s happening.” Jax says firmly.
“Mr. S?” I question.
“He’s our boss, he’s also the one who gave me the book about Soulmates and told me I would know when I needed it.” Levi explains. “Everyone get dressed and I’ll set up a secure connection.” He adds.
We all go off in separate directions before I remember, I still don’t know where my bag is.
“It’s in your room Darling.” Levi smiles at me just as I’m about to ask him where it is.
I grin and kiss him lightly on the cheek as I pass.
“Thank you, Levi.” I whisper in his ear and smile as I see him shudder.
When I arrive back in the room I slept in last night, I glance around. I was too upset last night to take in any of the details of the room.
It’s a decent size at least double the size of my room at mothers, the carpet is thick and soft and a light grey colour. The room is painted in a slightly darker shade than the carpet, adding to the overall soothing effect. In the centre stands the large bed that we all slept in, with the white covers still rumpled. Dark brown bedside tables stand on either side of the large bed with a silver lamp on each. I wander over to the window on the other side of the bed that looks out over the back yard.
Turning to my left I step forward and pull open one of the doors on this side of the room, behind it is a small closet. Striding back towards the bedroom door I pull open the other door to the right of me to find a small but neat and modern bathroom that I vaguely remember showering in last night. Having done a loop of the room and realising I’m probably running low on time now; I rush over to my bag searching through it to find a suitable outfit. Now that my exploration of the room is done my mind of course, immediately goes back to thinking about my five wonderful, amazing and incredibly handsome men.
My mind continues to wonder as I dress in black skinny jeans, a white tank and simple flip flops. It is obviously going to be a learning curve for all of us and I’m not naive enough to think that it’s going to be all smooth sailing. I mean there are six of us for fucks sake. A relationship between only two people requires enough work, and most commonly fails because of a lack of communication, and that’s with only two people’s feelings and needs to take into consideration.
We are going to have to be aware of five other people. It’s going to take work, but I understand that if something is worth it then you have to be willing to put in the effort and fight for it, especially through the difficult times.
I am willing to fight with everything that I am for this, for my men. I have every faith that although it may not be easy it will sure as hell be worth it and whatever gets thrown at us, we will all get through it together.
I walk out of the room plaiting my long, dark hair into a French braid to keep it out of the way. I follow the voices into the lounge, grabbing a fresh cup of coffee on the way. I take a seat in between Kai and Jax and watch Levi as he finishes his phone call.
“ . . . yes Sir, right away.” He hangs up the phone and turns to look at us.
“Mr. S wants to see us right away.”
“On the secure video line?” Maverick asks.
“No, in person and he wants us to bring Sage, he said it would be incredibly uncomfortable for us to be away from her now, but he wouldn’t explain more over the phone.”
“I can’t go with you though, what about my mother? I can’t just leave without telling her and there is absolutely no freaking, way she would let me go.” I start to panic, I instinctively know it would be bad to be away from them not just uncomfortable, but really bad.
Jax crouches down in front of me and gently places his hands on my face.
“Calm down, Darling. I know, I can feel it too. We have a plan though and it will work, there is no way we would ever leave you behind. We can feel what it would do to us, not mention that all of us would simply hate to be away from you now.” He tells me gently, I can easily hear the sincerityin his softly spoken words.
I hear all the others chime in their agreement and my heart fills with joy.
Levi smiles and gently kisses my forehead before standing back up and addressing all of us again.
“As I said, we have a plan. Using our connections someone is going to contact the school and explain that there has been a last minute spot that has opened up. To go to an exclusive martial arts training facility for an undetermined amount of time and that you will have to leave immediately. The same person will contact your mother. Now we don’t want you to have to go back there so we have stated that you had to leave early this morning. None of this will be suspect as you are eighteen and will not need a parental signature and as it’s for martial arts your mother will, hopefully be happy to let you go, although as you’re eighteen there’s not much she can do about it either way.” Levi informs me.
“That sounds like an excellent plan, in regards to the school, but my mother was very specific about where I learnt to train. She will not be happy to find out I left to go to a training facility she didn’t approve of and will not be happy when I get back.” I grimace.
“Do you want to go back, Beautiful?” Kai asks intently.
