Chapter 27
Sorry for the late update. But enjoy!!
Althea Garcia Hela Silvermoon
"Althea. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." His hold on my face tightens as his face scrunches in pain. So much pain.
But I don't mind his rough hands, even though I was starting to feel pain rise on my neck as my face was being lifted up to meet his. I didn't complain.
"I miss you. Please come back." He whispers, broken, a lone tear flowing down his eye. I feel a sharp needle in my heart.
"I'm back, Aries..." My whisper equally gentle as I remove one of my hand from his wrist to wipe his tear and place them on his cheek, feeling the soft tingles run through my palm.
I don't know why I said that, but I felt like I had to. This time I heard everything my heart was saying, and it was telling me to never let go of this man in front of me. This werewolf.
He shocked me by slamming his lips on mine. My eyes go wider as I look onto his closed eyelids. He kisses my lips hungrily, sending sparks all over my body. Unable to contain all this euphoria, I close my eyes and give in to him. I give my all to him. My everything.
My heart. My soul. But he already had them.
I open my mouth only for him to devour it too. He licks, sucks and bites my lips. Like he had missed them. These sparks.
Now I give him this body of mine too. This decaying body of mine. All of what it was left, I give it to him.
When he finally lets go, I breath in heavily as my lungs screamed for more air. His lips an inch away as he too breaths on mine, sending the electric sparks with his every breath. My lips tingles, missing his lips already. While my hands grab on to the t-shirt on his chest.
I slowly open my eyes to look up at him. But he still had his beautiful blue eyes shut tightly. I bring my hand to lightly trace one side of his face before I cup his cheek once again. He leans his head on my tiny palm and rubs his face against it, jolting the sparks.
"Aries." I whisper ever so slightly.
He finally opens his eyes to look at me. His blue pool pulls me further into him. I too feel him get lost in my eyes, but he suddenly moves away from me as if my touch burned him. His eyes go huge as his swollen lips opens up a little and his hands now holding the air which once held my face.
I tilt my head to the side as I look at him confused. My body longed for his touch. It felt empty and cold without him. I took a step forward, but he took two backwards. I knew hurt was clear on my face as I looked at his equally pained expression.
"Aries." I whispered once again.
"S-sorry. I'm sorry." His eyes longed me, but his words said otherwise.
He turned around with great difficulty and started to walk away.
Again.
No, stop.
Please don't leave me again.
My eyes watered endlessly as my body shuddered with these emotions that were now pouring through my eyes. I don't want you to go. No, I won't let you go.
Gathering up all the courage that I could muster, I clenched my hands tightly, preventing my body from shaking but the pools from my eyes flowed continuously. I inhaled sharply before I ran for him. Towards him. I slammed my tiny body into his board back, making him halt in his feet as my arms tried to wrap around him from the back.
I breathed his scent as I buried my face on his back, my nose pressed on them. I smelled the fresh mint. The contact of our bare arms ignited millions of sparks and I hummed my breath in the feeling.
I wanted this. I wanted him.
Even though I did not remember anything about my past. Of what I was? Who I was?
Right this moment I knew that this was where I wanted to be. This was what I was looking for. For me, this was my home that I will always come back running, no matter how many times I leave or no matter how many times I would lose my memories.
Deep in my heart I knew that it would remember everything, even though my traitorous mind was incapable of holding such information. My heart, I could always trust. It spoke for my soul. For me.
I tighten my hold on him as I felt him stiffen against me. I don't care. I didn't care. All I wanted was him. Even if I have to fight against destiny to be with him, I knew that I would.
So, please dear goddess, let this man be mine. I would forever sacrifice my memories to be with him. I would give up everything that I own to be with him. I don't want anything back. Just please let this rotting body of mine be with him even if it was for a little longer. Please, goddess.
Mother...
I don't know why but I felt like a girl begging her mother to let her be with her love. To let her love again.
"Aries." I whisper against his back and feel him shudder.
"Please, don't push me away. Please let me in, Aries..."
I beg him as my tears wet his t-shirt, my face pressed against his back. Please don't let me go. I squeeze my eyes shut and fists my hands on his t-shirt that sat on either side of his muscular chest.
Aries Blackwood
My lips still tingled from our kiss. She drew me to her. When I closed my eyes, it felt like she was her. It felt so real. Almost as if it was Althea herself in this tiny human's body. Like her soul was in that body. Like it was calling out to me. Begging me to recognise her as she resides in that body.
It felt so right. She felt so right. But she was not.
Now that she holds me with her tiny little arms, she sucks me in towards her even more. She ignites this fire inside me, making me shiver with her touch, her hot breath on my back. I felt her tears soak through my t-shirt.
It pained my heart to know that she was crying. This human. This fragile little human. I wanted her, just as much as I wanted Althea.
Every second that I spent with her, it made me think of her as mine. Those nights when she was in the infirmary, I couldn't control myself, so I went to her. One night became two and it repeated every night.
It was like a habit. An addiction to watch her face as she slept. How she reacted on my slightest touch even in her sleep. She was an addiction. An unhealthy addiction. My addiction.
A drug that I needed to calm myself. A drug that I need to live. To once again feel alive.
I felt her tiny hands grab the t-shirt around my chest pulling me to her even more. What am I going to do with her? I sigh deeply as I close my eyes and face the sky.
"Please, don't push me away. Please let me in, Aries..."
I put my large hands over hers, completely engulfing her. Her words played in my head as I gently tug her hands away from my chest. I let them free as I look down and take two steps forward only to stop in my track.
The sky roared. The thunder lightning as her cries got louder. I looked up to the sky. To the goddess watching from above.
Is this a sign?
Did you really send Althea back to me? I know I sound crazy but when she calls my name I feel as if it is her who's calling out to me.
The way she says my name. The way my heart skips a beat. Was it really her? Can I believe that its truly her? Can I trust you?
I want more of her. I want her lips on mine. I want her body against mine. I want to protect this fragile human. I want to hold her in my arms. I want her to be mine.
Althea, if you are listening from somewhere, I don't know if I'm wrong. But forgive me for what I'm about to do.
I love you.
I always have. And I will always love you.
