Chapter 261
Ella's Point of View

I couldn't stop looking at the man in front of me. I knew who he was from my dreams. He was King Edward. The ruler of the vampires. Seeing him in real life he looked so much better than in my dreams. My wolf kept saying over and over in my mind. Mate! He is our Mate.

"This is between me and my daughter, Edward," My dad said

"She is my beloved." Hearing him say that pissed me off. I felt hot inside. It was like energy was building up inside of me that I needed to let out

"I am your beloved, really? Because from what I heard you had a witch erase my memories of you. you obviously don't want me as your beloved," I growled

"Ella, I did that for your own good. Of course I want you. You have no idea how hard it was for me to stay away from you. I was actually about to go to the werewolf kingdom and make things right with you," King Edward said. That made me even more angry. I could feel the powers leaving my body. Suddenly it started to rain. I could hear the thunder and see the lightening. Somehow I knew I was the one causing it

"Ella, calm down," Sof said, but I ignored her

"So you think that all you have to do is come to the werewolf kingdom and apologize and then what? You think I would just forgive you like some lovesick weak fool. Let me tell you that that is not who I am. "

"I know that, Mon Amour. I didn't think that you would come back to me so easily. I know you better than that," King Edward said

"Right? Because you weren't the one who had your memories forcefully erased without your consent. That is why you know me," I said. I could feel myself getting even more upset

"Ella, you really need to calm down, okay?" Sof said. I knew she was right, but I couldn't calm down. I was way too angry.

Suddenly, King Edward wrapped his arms around me. "Get off of me," I said as I tried to get away, but his grip only tightened

"No, I won't let you go, Mon Amour. I am so sorry. You have no idea how much I love you."

"Hey, my daughter said let her go," My dad said

"Wait, Dad. Look," Ethan said

"Suddenly, it stopped raining as I began to calm down. Being in his arms felt so right. I felt so safe and loved. I could stay in his arms forever. The pleasant sensations felt amazing that were going through my body

"How about we all head inside so that we can talk?" Sof said

"Mon Amour."

"Okay," I said, and we all headed inside.

"We should let Ella and Edward talk in private," Sof said

"What, no. That is not a good idea," My dad said, and I looked at him. "Please, Daddy. I need to speak to him," I said, and my dad sighed.

"Okay," My dad replied, and Edward and I went to a different room while they stayed in the front of the castle. Everyone was staring as we passed by. I just ignored them

'We can talk in my office," King Edward said as he opened the door. I walked inside, and he followed me.

"Have a seat," he said, and I sat on the chair at his desk. Edward sat across from me. Edward just stared at me for a moment. Both of us were silent.

"You are so beautiful, Ella. You have no idea how much I have missed you."

"Really? Then why did you leave me? Is it really because you were trying to do what was best for me, or was it because you saw me as a burden?" I asked

"You could never be a burden to me, Ella. I did it because I thought I was doing what was right. Now I know I was wrong. Why would you think that I would see you as a buren," King Edward asked and I shrugged my shoulders

"I am a werewolf and you are the vampire king. Why would you want to be with a werewolf? Also what would your members think about you having a werewolf as your mate?" I asked

"I could care less about what anyone else thinks," King Edward replied

"If you say so," I said

You don't believe me," He said.

"I don't know what to think," I replied honestly

"I know. I fucked everything up. You have no idea how hard it was for me to stay away from you. How weak it made me. I felt like the most important part of me was missing. I really thought I was doing the right thing. It took everything in me to do the right thing. The crazy thing is that it wasn't the right thing. The right thing would have been staying by your side like I always wanted to do. So I basically put myself through hell for nothing. One thing I will say is that I will never do that again. I am never leaving you," King Edward said

"Hold on, now. I never said that I wanted you," I replied

"Really? Then are you going to reject me?" I growled just thinking about rejecting him. That made him smile

"See, Mon Amour. You want me just as much as I want you. Even after everything that happened," King Edward said

"You mean what you made happen, King Edward. I don't even know if I can trust you not to do something like this again."

"It is Edward to you, and I know you are not going to forgive me easily, but I will do everything in my power to gain your trust back. I meant it when I said I will never leave your side again," King Edward said, and I stayed silent, not knowing what to say

"How about this. You give me a chance to prove myself to you. I know we won't go right back to the way it was before all of this, but I know we will get back there," King Edward said

"Fine, I will give you a chance to prove yourself to me."

I didn't want to admit it but I wanted to be around him. I didn't want him to leave me again. That scared me more than anything ever had.
