Chapter 118: Chapter 118

Daxton's POV

When I reached near the exit cave, the scent had gotten stronger and it's hard for me to keep my mind in sanity. The alluring scent is too much pleasure, I couldn't control myself or even think right as my eyes are turning crimson red.

Suddenly, I saw two human beings. It was a man that was carrying a child violently and my blood boiled when I saw the scene. I knew that the alluring scent was coming from the child carried by the man. I couldn't clearly see the face of the child because she was back facing me although I'm sure that it was a little girl.

I watched them in the dark as they entered the cave, what are they doing here when this place is not even safe? But are the two related? It doesn't seem right. I just observed while waiting for what's next to happen.

But when I saw the man put the little girl roughly on the ground, as if she was some kind of animal, my blood boiled all of a sudden as anger arose within me. It was added when it had gotten clearly into my vision, the little girl was bleeding continuously. I clenched my fist and my eyes were blazing in madness that I didn't hesitate as I followed the man silently from the dark, with no one able to notice my presence.

When he was near the gate of the cave, I immediately and swiftly jumped into him as I turned his head into his death. I jumped down as if nothing happened as I turned my back and that's when he fell down on the ground, lifelessly.

I could feel vampires heading towards the cave but when they sensed my dark aura, I could feel them halted as their presence started retreating... afraid of the aura I had at this moment... and I knew right now I could kill in an instant without hesitation.

My eyes were still blazing in madness as if killing the man was not enough because I knew he was the reason why the little girl was bleeding and weak. If I could kill him twice or more, I would for the little girl.

Wait, the little girl! I have to go back, damn it, I can't lose her, not now, not ever.

When I came back to the place where she was left by that fucking man, I was glued at my spot in shock and damn.... What is this? Is this fear? Why am I feeling fear when I did not see the girl? I have never felt fear, not even when my life was at stake. Just now, when my worries turned into fear... fear of losing her.

My feet went back into walking, as if they knew where to go and I followed where my body was taking me until the strength had gotten stronger. And so, I followed the scent and it did not last long until I saw the little girl... she was walking weakly. Blood is dripping out of her and I knew that any moment she might collapse due to the loss of blood.

Her petite figure and small body wouldn't handle that much of a beating... and I don't have any idea why they have to do this to her. Damn, I thought humans are innocent and at least have humanity within them but doing this to a child isn't humanity at all! They act more than an animal, except this human girl who looks so vulnerable and weak.

What did she do to deserve this kind of treatment from other humans?

I clenched my hands when I saw the tears coming out of her eyes... I knew that she could sense me when her face held fear the reason why I felt a pang of pain in my chest. She fears me, who wouldn't? I am a monster, but when other creatures fear me, it doesn't even bother me but why does it seem like, her fearing me means everything.

Dammit, she does not deserve this fucking pain, if I could just take it away from her, I would. This damn heart of mine is not even cooperating, it is rapidly beating which makes me lose my mind and unable to think properly of what to do.

The anger, worry, fear and this unexplainable feelings deep inside of me have mixed up which was more complicated. I have to do something.

I observed from a distance as I watched her every step... I hear her breathing as if I could feel her warmth... and damn this too much alluring scent, it is somehow making me hypnotized.

But I have to get myself back... however, how come? How come she is human when she is the destined Queen Luna?

I'm sure that my destiny is becoming an Alpha King and my mate would definitely be Queen Luna. Right now, I am completely sure that this little girl is my destined mate, no one would ever be this alluring and hypnotizing than my mate.

But why is she human? Did the Moon Goddess make a mistake? I cannot smell the blood of a werewolf coming from her, as if she was purely human. I cannot be wrong, especially my intuition.

Or was it because she was the chosen one?

When she fell off the ground due to tiredness and worse loss of blood, I slowly took a step forward... I just can't lose this girl... I cannot lose my Queen.

There must be a reason why I am here in this cave... in the human world and now I think I know the reason. It was her... the Moon Goddess brought me here to help and protect... my mate.

When I got closer to her... she was barely breathing and I had no choice but to save her... in order to do that.

She must become... mine.

Well, the moment she was born, she's already mine. I kneeled on the ground as I looked at her unconscious figure... weak, vulnerable and broken... which made my heart ache for so many reasons, but it was only because of her as if she transferred all her pain into me.

My fangs had slowly come out and at the age of thirteen, I was slowly shifting into a real monster.

I looked at the girl, she was purely innocent, her face held all the pain but why does she look so cute... and pure, as if a monster like me doesn't deserve this angel. She deserves all the goodness in life, she deserves better.

I couldn't take my eyes off her and at this moment, I was aware that this monster inside of me had fallen... fallen in love with this innocent girl.

And she's... "Mine."

And for the last breath she saved for herself, I didn't hesitate as I bit her neck... claiming what is mine. This is the only thing I knew to save my mate, I can't lose my Queen.

It was the most risky and irrational thing that I have ever done.
