Forbidden Fruit: Mated To My Sister's Best Friend Chapter 149
Sofia's Point of View
As my dad and I walked up to the fighting ring, I could feel everyone's eyes on me, but I kept my eyes on Ethan. He was looking back at me, smiling at me warmly. I could feel how happy he was through the mate bond. Once I got to him, my dad placed my hand in Ethan's hand, just like they would at a wedding.
"Take care of my daughter," My dad said as he looked Ethan in the eye
"With my life," Ethan replied seriously.
My dad walked to the side where Stacie, Nick, Jason, and Layla were standing. Layla looked so nervous, but I was happy she was standing beside Jason. He had his arm protectively around her. I was so happy that Layla trusted Jason. I knew he would never hurt her and would treat her well.
Eric walked over to us and started the ceremony. "Do you, Ethan Black, accept the position of Werewolf King? Do you promise to lead with authority and fairness?" Eric asked
"I do," Ethan replied. Then, Eric took a knife and made a small cut on Ethan's palm. Tammie handed Eric the ancient Lycurgus glass, which was golden, and Ethan let some of his blood drop into the liquid that was already inside of the cup. Then, Eric looked at me. Do you, Sofia Jones, accept the position of Werewolf Queen? Do you promise to lead by your mate's side?" Eric asked
"I do," I replied, and I held my hand out, and Eric made a small cut to my palm. He held the glass out, and my blood dripped into the glass. Tammie and Eric both sliced their hands and let some blood drip into the glass as well. "Drinking the liquid in this cup will complete your transition to the Werewolf King and Werewolf Queen," Eric said, and he handed the cup to Ethan. Ethan took a sip out of the glass and closed his eyes. I could feel a powerful aura around him. He opened his eyes and smiled at me.
Eric handed me the glass next, and I drank out of it. At first, I didn't feel any different, but a few moments later, I felt like a lot of power had gone through my body. It started getting stronger and stronger with every second. I closed my eyes like Ethan did, trying to stay in control. My inside started getting warm, and then pain started to go through my body. "Ahh," I screamed from the pain.
"Sofia," I heard Ethan say, which caused me to open my eyes. I was shocked to see I was hovering in the air. It had started to rain heavily, and I knew it was because of me. An intoxicating smell came to me. I wasn't sure if I was hungry or thirsty. Maybe both at the same time.
Suddenly, I felt a lot of energy leave my body, and I fell to the ground. "Sofia, are you okay?" Ethan asked, and I looked at him. Once our eyes met, Ethan had a shocked expression on his face. I could feel through our bond that he was worried about something.
"What's wrong?" I asked
"Your eyes. They are red," Ethan said
"It's her vampire," Eric said. Ethan kneeled in front of me and caressed my cheek.
"Ethan, be careful," Eric said worriedly, but Ethan ignored him
"Everything is going to be okay, My Love," Ethan said
I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tightly. My face was by his neck, and he smelled so good. Without thinking I bit into his neck causing him to groan. His blood tasted amazing. I didn't know how to explain it. It was the best thing I had ever tasted in this world.
Suddenly, I was pulled away from him. I looked over to see Eric and my dad, who were the ones who stopped me. The realization of what I had just done came to me, and I felt terrible. I had drunk Ethan's blood. I looked at him to see he was still sitting on the ground. I knew he could feel how bad I felt though the mate bond.
"It's alright, Sofia. I am fine," Ethan said
"No, it isn't alright. I could have killed you," I said as I started to back away from him.
"Sofia," Ethan started to say, but then black smoke started to appear, and soon Mr. King was standing in front of me with Helena.
"Stay away from her," Ethan said. Some of the guards tried to reach Mr. King, but Helena must have put a shield up, stopping anyone from coming close to us.
"I know you are afraid, but I can help you. You should come with me if you don't want to hurt anyone else," Mr. King said
"I don't want your help," I replied
"Well, you have no choice," Mr. King said, and soon blackness took over.
