Chapter 59: Chapter 59

Aires'POV

One moment, I was about to pronounce Daisy as the girl I love and then, suddenly, I felt intense hotness running through my bloodstream, and painful sensations shot through my nerves, my head felt like it was about to split open and my body felt like there is a giant monster inside of me that is about to show itself, my muscles rippled painfully and all of a sudden, I could hear everything and everyone, the noise was amplified, sending shooting pains into my brain, I could smell everything all at once but in the midst of all my pain, there is just one thing that my brain was able to recognize, it was a very sweet smell and I feel like devouring whatsoever has such smell, I followed traced the direction of the smell and realized that it was coming from Daisy, I had the sudden urge to take her right there and then, to claim her deeply and possess every inch of her being, the word "mate" chanted in my head, whatever that means.

"What's going on? What's happening to me?" I screamed in pain when claws suddenly shot out of where my fingernails were supposed to be, I could feel furs on my body already, what was I turning into?

"Leave him, I'll take it from here", I heard a stranger say, I have never met him but he seems to know what is happening to me, before I could question him, my back muscles rippled painfully against each other, it was as if my bones were becoming larger in size and my skin can no longer contain it, I yelled as spasms of pain went through me.

Suddenly, dad jumped out of nowhere and pointed a gun at me, to anyone, it seems like it was just an ordinary gun but haven stayed with him, I realized that it was one of those tools he had prepared to kill Dylan Sabastine with, Dylan Sabastine, the werewolf and arch enemy of his but why is he pointing it at me?

"I have been waiting for this day", he said and suddenly, it was as if a covering was removed from my eyes and I could see clearly, why he had kept me and even tried to make friends with me, he knew, he always knew that I was a werewolf and this transformation also explains why my injuries seem to heal on their own, a shot rang out and the stranger jumped in front of me, taking the bullet meant for me, why would he do that? He howled in pain just as he turned into a werewolf right before me, Dylan Sabastine? He's here? After all these years, he showed up just to take a bullet that can kill werewolves for me. But why? I transited fully and my dad suddenly grabbed Daisy and pointed the gun at her,

"Rip off his heart or I'll kill your girlfriend" he ordered and I turned to look at the man, now a wolf who had taken that bullet for me, is he still alive? The bullet was made with wolfsbane and poisoned roasted cocoa, there's no way he could survive it but I'm not gonna kill him for anything, he just saved my life,

"Kill him or I'll shoot her", I felt like ripping his tongue off and feeding it to the dogs, I stared at the gun he held over Daisy's head,

"No, Aires, don't kill him... he is your real father"

I felt shocked like never before, my real father? What's she talking about? I stared at the lifeless man on the floor, and suddenly, I smell another presence, we are not alone, I saw the wolf just before it lunged at Dad, and at the same time, I went for the gun held over Daisy's head, shots rang out and I suddenly felt a burning sting on my arm, I have been grazed by the poisonous bullet, I watched as Dad fell on the floor, lifeless and I could feel my fur receded as I changed back into my human form.

"Oh my God, Aires you're bleeding" she cried and her eyes also took in my naked form, my clothes had been ripped apart during my transformation, but she quickly averted her eyes from my form, tears welled in her eyes as she tried to stop the flow of blood, I could feel myself growing weaker,

"Let's get them out of here, I can here people coming, the human world is not friendly for werewolves," the wolves who had just joined us said as they carried Mr. Dylan Sabastine,

"Daisy...I...I...love you". It was the last thing I said before slipping into unconsciousness.

The room was strange, it was large and filled with many costly items, and it was dimly lit, I sense her presence just before I saw her, she was staring at me with longing and warmth in her eyes, it was as if she never want to let me out of her sight,

"You're awake," she said, rushing towards my side, "do you feel any pain? Damien tried as much to extract the poison, though, he told me you were in no danger but for a moment I was afraid..." She broke down and sobbed a little, "I can't go through the pain of losing you again"

"Again?" I asked cautiously, my voice was raspy as I stared at the last sobbing beside me, she held my hand close to her chest and showered my face with kisses, I felt strange

"Yes, my son, again, I am your mother and I can tell that you think I abandoned you, but I didn't, here is what happened", she placed a hand on my forehead and suddenly I could see the past, soldiers fighting and she carrying a baby, that baby was me, it was the same dream I had always had, suddenly, the face of the woman in my dreams became clear and it was her, she put me in that boat to save my life, the vision faded when she lifted her hands,

How did you do that? Do werewolves also make one to see a vision?" I asked and she smiled through her tears

"No, I am not a werewolf, I am a witch", she replied, great, just what I needed, to have a witchy mother and a wolf Dad, I thought this only happens in fairy tales

"I lost my powers and will to live when I lost you but now that you're back to me, after so many years, my powers suddenly returned, thanks to you, my power returned so that I could save your dad's life, he would have surely died today if my powers had not chosen to resurface"

Dad, she meant the man who saved me, Dylan Sabastine?" how is he?" I asked, I should at least show concern for someone who had risked his life for me

"He is still too weak to get up, he will come and see you as soon as he can?"

"Daisy...where is she, I have to see her", I suddenly said as the thought of her came crashing in, I had to make sure she was okay, I have to hold her in my arms and tell her that I cannot live without her.

"Daisy? Oh, you mean the girl with you? She is just outside, she had insisted on coming here with you, she must have really loved you for her to leave her human world just to come here with you".

I have no reply for her so, I kept quiet, slowly, she stood up and went outside, and a little bit later, the door opened to reveal Daisy, she rushed towards me as soon as she saw me, sobbing, and she wrapped her arms around me.

"I thought I'd lose you" she wailed and I felt touched, I feel loved after many years of isolation,

"Were you scared?" I asked and she nodded, "of course, I was scared"

"...and why is that so?"

"Because I love you, I have always loved you and will always love you"

I couldn't wait anymore, I kissed her with all the pent-up hunger in me, and we were both breathing hard when we came up for air,

"How's my little champ doing?" I asked softly, touching her stomach, "why didn't you tell me about it?" I asked a little bit hurt that she would keep such a thing from me

"I wanted to, but, I didn't get the chance, I don't even know how my father found out about it"

"He must have been watching your movement all these while, I'm sorry that your dad has to die but I feel like killing him all over for trying to harm you and my baby"

"He is more of a father to you than to me, I'll prefer to keep the childhood memories I have of him and that's all, the monster he had become cannot be my father",

I kissed her forehead and hugged her tightly, "I love you Daisy and I will show you how it feels to be loved by me"

"Huh, my bully loves me," she said and I chuckled, we were both startled by the applause and we both turned to see that the door had been opened and there are people in the room, smiling and clapping,

"All hail Alpha Aires" someone shouted and it was echoed by the rest

"I am very proud of you my son, I can't wait to be a grandfather," Dylan said, stepping inside, the rest of the people bowed for him as he walked past them into the room, he is surely a man deeply loved and respected by his people and for some reasons, I feel at home being in the midst of them all, this is home.

"We have to get them married as soon as possible, " Ariana said and I smiled, I can't wait to build my own family, filled with love and laughter, I am thankful that I am home at last.

"All hail the future Luna, Daisy!!!

"Let the celebration begin" Dylan ordered, there were cries of excitement and fireworks all over.

I stared at Daisy when we were finally left alone, " what do you think about what my real father just said, do you think that you can get married to a non-human?"

"What matters is your heart, your heart is pure and sincere and I love you for who you are, I love everything about you, so, yes, I will marry you and live in your world with you"

"Welcome to my world Daisy, you're trapped and I'm never gonna let you go".

I sealed my promise with a kiss.

THE END
