.Especially since I wasn t entirely sure that he was back in my lifejust yet. So are you still freaked out about it? I asked him hesitantly, crossing my anklesunderneath the table, hoping they worked just as well as fingers. Not as much as I was before, he admitted, and I breathed a sigh of relief. Good.That s good then, I smiled. Yeah.I had a visit from your two older brothers and their friend and they took me to abar that I m pretty sure I will never forget for as long as I live.It showed me that the world I livein is not the true world.It s not the world that really exists for so many. Philip sighed and shookhis head as if warding off an unwelcome thought. My denying you because you are not humanis like my denying someone else because they were black.I nodded my head in agreement with his statement.I was so glad that Eeireek, Eeian andIr-nae had gotten him to understand that.I hadn t known what to say to him to get him to acceptour mating.I felt as if I were fighting an uphill battle with him and I was beyond ecstatic thatthey d given me a boost up the hill. My rejecting you because you were female in Fae, because you are what we call here inthe human realm, transgender, is just like me rejecting someone because they were born withwebbed feet that they had to have corrected.Yes, they could live their life with webbed feet andVicktor Alexanderbe fine, but they wouldn t be happy and they wouldn t feel like their feet were right, because ofsome biological mix-up.They didn t ask to be born that way; it was just a genetic mistake. Iwasn t sure exactly how accurate his analogy was in that moment, but if it meant he would returnto me in the end and wanted us to be together, I was all for it.I knew I would have to look up hisstatement, however.How could one be born with webbed feet? Wouldn t they have to be a fishor a mermaid or something?I shook my head mentally and focused back in on Philip s face, hoping I hadn t missedanything important in what he was saying.  know that I feel a connection with you regardless.Whether that makes us mates orjust two lucky men who ended up meeting each other, it doesn t really matter.All that matters isthat we are together.Dammit, I d missed his entire speech.I bet it was good, too.Nodding my head, I took a sip of my milkshake before staring at him with what I couldonly hope was an unwavering glance, but that I was sure looked much more yearning thananything else.Squaring my shoulders, I began to wrap a rather large, thick strand of my hairaround my finger as I struggled with what to say to him.Then I realized that I didn t know whatto say because I wasn t sure exactly what he was asking me& or telling me. So what exactly do you want, Philip? I figured directly asking was much better thanguessing and being an ass by assuming. I want to date you.For real this time.I want to date you and get to know our baby awhole lot more than I know now.I want us to be together if it all works out, and I want to bethere to take care of the both of you, he responded and I felt my heart melt at his words.Thiswas what I d wanted from the moment I d realized he was my mate.This was what I d beenlonging for and searching for.This was what I thought mating was supposed to be. I d love to date you, Philip.Vicktor Alexander______________________________________________________________Chapter FourteenWherein Philip and Eeiran date, Philip meets Eeiran s family and learns the truthabout his own family, before leaving& again.had never been so happy to go to McDonald s before in my whole life.While I dworked there I d hated the place.Many of the customers were rude, the employeesdidn t take the job seriously and the pay was shitty at best, but McDonald s hadIgiven me one amazing thing for which I d forever be grateful: Eeiran& twice.After our lunch that first day, we went back to his apartment that he shared with hisbrother and his brother-in-law s family.When we walked into the door, it sounded like there wasa party going on and the smile that lit up Eeiran s face sent deep warmth flooding through myheart and made me feel almost lightheaded on his joy. Quinteieen! Eeiran exclaimed, letting go of my hand and rushing towards another manwho looked alarmingly like him. Quinteieen? I asked softly, wondering who the man was and why he was holding ontomy mate so tightly.Shit.Had I just called him my mate? When the hell had I started to believe in and accept thewhole  mate thing? I jumped slightly when a low, menacing growl exploded in the room andeveryone looked at me.Who the fuck was growling? Eeiran giggled, a sound I d never heardfrom him before and practically skipped back to my side.He stood on his toes and placed a kisson my lips before turning back to the room. Forgive my mate, he s a little possessive apparently.Something neither I nor he knewuntil this very moment, Eeiran announced with a cheeky smile.I felt heat suffuse my face whenI realized the growl had come from me.When had I started growling at people for no reason?And it was no reason, right?
