Mates Conquer Everything, Right?
21 Level of mates

“What?” I ask while he is dapping his chin.

“You can’t talk like that in public.”

“I can’t ask about mating?” I ask again.

“Of course you can.” He gives me an assuring smile. “However Vasil is going crazy in my head. It costs a lot of energy to calm him down.”

“Your wolf? What is he doing?”

“Running around impatiently.” I can’t hide the interest on my face as he strokes my cheek. I feel the delicious tingling on my skin.

“I know this is all still new for you. Just know that I can control my wolf for the most part and you will never be in danger. He cares for you too, but he can be too enthusiastic, like right now...”

Igétas makes big hand gestures. “He is just screaming in my head, telling me how gorgeous you are. That you are ours and instead of telling you about mating we just need to act on it.”

Now it is my time to choke on some air. I like it when he tells me he likes me. Even if it is his wolf.

He retrieves his hand. “Don’t worry, he knows I have you for myself for now. He knows he can meet you later.”

“How do you do it? Living with a wolf in your mind.”

“It’s not that exciting. I don’t know otherwise. Since I was little, Vasil has been there.”

I eat my meal and listen to a story from his past. About how his mother was tricked into believing Vasil did something while it was Tharros who was breaking stuff in the house. We laugh and have a great time. Around dessert, the mood changed back.

“You still didn’t explain the... you know.” I whisper the last part and raise my eyebrows.

He laughs at me and I smile at him lovingly. Every minute spent with him is a minute I fall more in love with him.

“We believe that the moon goddess, Selene, gives werewolves mates to give us strength and love since she isn’t able to visit us.”

“Oliver told me about Selene, and that she gave werewolves mates so that the bloodline could continue.”

Igétas shakes his head. “He shouldn’t have said that, it’s a secret of all werewolves.”

“Don’t be mad at him,” I reach for his hand to stroke. “He was very excited to explain your world to me and he did a good job.”

I don’t know if Igétas is mind-linking or just zoning out. “Please, tell me more.” I ask and he continues.

“There are different kinds of mates. You have the human kind of love. Just as falling in love, being in love. Werewolves can fall in love like humans, but it’s difficult.”

“Difficult how?”

“I will explain later. Then you have mates. Love created by the moon goddess. However we believe that she didn’t make every mate the same. We think she created more than one level of love. More tiers than just the human kind of love. The first werewolf who thought that there were variations in mates did experiments and came up with a system of love levels.”

“So if I understand correctly, mates are sometimes more in love than other human couples?”

Igétas looks puzzled. “Not really, their love is just as real. But the mate bond can be more intense. I think that should make it more clear for you.”

“Well, what if I say that I am more confused than before you began to explain anything?”

He laughs and takes my hand in his and gives me a gentle kiss. “Let me tell you more about the experiments. The scientist did tests on more than twenty couples and could establish three tiers in mate love. One, the normal black tier. This one is just above human love, because the mate bond will make it feel more intense. You can say it’s being in love and having a mate bond. Then you have level two, the blue tier. More love and a stronger mate bond than black but not as powerful as the green tier, which is rare. Those couples are usually very powerful because of their strong connection. Mostly only Alphas or Betas can get this strong mate bond due to their strong wolves…”

“So, you think we have the green tier? You dropped some hints telling me we are stronger connected than the rest.” He smirks and tells me more.

“ Those were the tiers he discovered during his experiment. A couple of years later, he saw a mating bond so powerful that he needed to do the test with them. The couple did so well that he decided the green tier was not high enough for them, so he created the gold tier. Extremely rare and so well connected. After that couple, he found one more in his lifetime. All werewolves, all the Packs in the world have accepted his four levels and the four tiers.”

“You think we are on the gold tier?” He nods.

“Why do you think that? I didn’t even feel our bond right away. I don’t have a wolf.”

“I don’t know for sure, we are great together. And Vasil is driving me crazy thinking about you. He is already a little more grown-up since he met you. It takes time, months for a wolf to change and he is evolving now. I know it’s all a lot to take in, but we are awesome together.”

I don’t know how to feel. Yes, the mate thing was explained, which was what I wanted,but so many things don’t make sense. I still need to ask my mother about my luna-courage. How is it possible for me to [1]and have a mate? It is all so strange. I need to call her soon.

Igétas calls my name and I raise a brow. “Did I lose you?” he asks.

I smirk but answer sincerely. “You don’t lose me that easily.”
