"It's fine," Aureus interrupted her as he knew Seren would be Drayce's mate soon once she would be of age and he would be hurt and be in pain. The woman he loved would be someone's mate soon, they will completed the bond and she would never be his. This well aware fact, he didn't wish to hear it from someone else as well.
"Be with the one you care for as much as you can. You might not get to be with them ever again. Have all the precious memories with them. It will be your last chance," Zelda mumbled.
"I know," Aureus replied normally. He knew he would have to leave Seren and go away from her. 'I have enough memories with her.'
Zelda opened her eyes and looked at him. "I wanted to look deeper into it, but it seems like you don't want to. Something ominous I sense but you are not allowing me to see through anything. What are you worried about?"
"I already am aware of what you are telling me so there is no need of stirring the things that I don't want them to surface. Let them be buried."
"Calm and compose. So matured for your age," Zelda praised as she moved her hands back, "I can not force you. But, things might not be what you think they are to be."
"It's alright. Knowing them or not, facing them is absolute so it does not make much difference," he replied with same composure as her words didn't affect him at all.
"True!" her eyes looked at him with admiration, "you are surely a commendable young man who is not easily tempted by anything. I see a great leader, a King inside you. One day you will lead your clan to its most glorious days and you will be more powerful than you can think you can be."
Just then they heard a voice from outside of the door, "Also do tell if my nephew has any mate written in his destiny." That was Morpheus.
Zelda sighed, "These divine beasts and their hearing abilities. I should have put the blocking spell here."
Just then the door of the room opened and Morpheus stepped inside the room as he sipped on the freshly brewed tea from the small tea cup, "I am his uncle, his only guardian. I have the right to worry about his life."
"You don't have to answer him, Lady Zelda" Aureus said as he stood up from the chair.
Zelda looked at Aureus, "You do have mate written in your destiny. You will be bound to her, you will save her from all the dangers, you will fight to protect her."
It made Aureus' calm composure to shaken up, finally. 'Seren, I will do all this for her. Will she...Is it possible..between us...but Drayce...?'
"Finally you said something good, old woman," Morpheus said, "Next time, I will bring an even bigger size root of that herb," and then he put his hand on Aureus' shoulder who was immersed in his thoughts, "I am happy for you, Aureus."
Aureus looked at his uncle with narrowed gaze, "Why don't you ask her if you have a mate in your destiny as well?"
Morpheus chuckled, "I don't need any mate," and turned to leave the room, "come outside you two. I won't brew this tea again for you."
Zelda stood up as she talked to Aureus, "He never allowed me or any other witch to look through him. There is no use in trying."
