GABRIEL
I watched in a daze as the man came toward me with a silver sword. I tried to fight the numbness but nothing worked. He lifted the sword up ready to take the shit out of me, and I knew from this moment that I was finished for good. I’ve gone through hard shit, fighting and surviving all kinds of tremendous dangers. And this is how I die, like a cat? I didn’t even get the chance to be with my Mate. The Mate I thought I didn’t have. This is not fair for a werewolf Alpha who had just found his mate. This is not fair. At least I would like to give her a goodbye kiss.
The man towered himself close to where I was lying and gave me a deadly smirk.
Is there something you’d like to repent before you go to heaven? He asked.
I only have regrets! The regret of finding my mate very late. But then, the only thing I would like is to see her beautiful smile. I would love to hear her saying that she loves me the way I do. I would like to hear her call my name with love in her eyes. And my pack. I know I’ve been arrogant and very hard on them since day one, but they’re my people and I do care about all of them. I said deep inside me.
Big dog, if you don’t have anything to say then allow me to send you to heaven because my mouth is watering now. I want to taste you but this man in my hands has to help me. He said and to that he lifted the sword up and then into my midriff. The silver poison started eating me up to the core. There are no words that can describe the pain I’m having right now. The pain of dying like a worthless cat. The pain of leaving my pack. And the pain… the pain of leaving my woman, My mate.
Pumpkin, I wish I could see you one last time. I love you my last one. The teardrop ran down my face to the thought of not seeing her again. And to the thought of leaving my people behind. Mom, your son is coming to meet you. Your son is coming to stay by your side forever.
“Gabriel…. Gabriel…..”
I heard my pumpkin’s voice calling me. I turned my head in pain and saw her smiling at me. And it was enough for me to go happily and in peace.” Pumpkin, you came?”You heard my yarns? Thank you for coming. Your coming is enough for me to believe that you do love me. My focus was on her and I didn’t notice another person beside her. A very old tall black man in white from head to toe was standing beside her holding a very old swagger stick in his left hand. He was so tall that it was very difficult to see his face. He looked down at me and I tried to see him but I couldn’t. He kept on staring at me for a long time. Catriona gave me a beautiful wide smile and then started disappearing into the thin air.
No, no, no, you can’t leave like that. I still need you by my side. She disappeared. She’s gone. Did you see that? She left me. Why..? This is not what I wanted. I said to the old man who was still staring down at me.
I give up, I will go and meet my Mom. She must be waiting for me. I said brokenly. The old man walked over to me and raised his swagger stick and lightly spanked it on my stomach.
This will drain the silver poison from your body and keep you from dying. He said and then went back to staring at me. When he gave up on staring, he started disappearing too, still staring at me, but I saw a faint smile appearing on his face. My eyes started to become heavy and I started seeing black. Is this how people die…..?
I opened my eyes in a blur of vision and someone was looking at me. Mom, I think he’s awake. She said, I recognize that voice. She’s that slut witch that disrespected my mate. What is she doing here? Chayanne Step aside, let me see. Her mother Said. What are those two witches doing here? Are they dead too?
I sat up and groaned in pain. This pain is too much to bear. And dead people don’t feel pain. What the fuck is going on with me? Am I not dead? How is it possible? “Exactly our question!! They both said at once.
Like you’re a werewolf, You got stabbed with a silver sword, and you are not dead? Like how the fuck is it even possible?
How did I end up here? I asked them.
We found you in the woods. How did you find me? How did you know that I was in the woods?
I followed you because I wanted to talk to you about something that you might love and be grateful to me for the rest of your life. The witch slut said.
I don’t have time for nattering. I need to leave this place. I said and tried to get up but I fell back backwards on the mattress. The pain is too much.
We are not protesting on your leaving, you will leave but give your body a little rest. You’ve survived this but we don’t know what will happen again when you leave in this condition. The old witch said.
Borrow me your car. I Said.
Are you deaf or your just stupid? She asked. It’s okay mom, I will drive him whenever he wants to go. Her daughter said. Okay Chayanne, i will give him some herb that will help him regain his energy and blood. But promise me that you will be super careful. Of course mom, I will.
I don’t want any of them near me but I didn’t protest her gesture because I’m not in the right condition.
The ride to the airport was long and silent. Thank God for the herb the witch gave me because I have less pain. I got out and grabbed my things to leave.
Have you ever heard the word thank you? She asked. What does it have to do with me? I replied. Thank me for the ride. Did I ask you to drive me here? I asked. Yes, you asked for the car and I drove you here. I asked for the car, not your assistance. You’re really a dick. Yes, I am a dick, and I will always be a dick to people like you. I said and marched forward and she followed.
Where are you going? I asked. I’m following you. Listen slut, if you want a thank you from me for you to leave, I’ll give it to you. THANK YOU. Now can you get out of my face?
Slut!! Is that how you address all the women, Including the human girl? Now you’re reaching my limits slut. Okay, I will behave. She said, I continued walking and she followed again. Can you slow down a little? There’s something important I would like to talk to you about. She whispered-shout. I ignored her and continued walking.
The real reason I drove you here is because I want to help you. She screamed behind me and that made me stop in my trucks and turned behind. She increased her pace until she reached me. Do werewolves walk this fast or is it just you? She asked.
Straight to the point! What help do you think I want from a little girl like you? Just listen to me. She demanded. Do you really love that human girl? I told you not to talk to my mate slut. Don’t provoke me. I didn’t use any disrespectful words. Just answer my question. She said with a straight face.
What does my love for my mate have to do with you? Alright then, you do love her.
How about we help each other? She asked. I opened my mouth to give her a full stamped rejection but she cut me off…”let me finish. ”
I will help you have that human girl all by yourself. Just say the word yes, and she’ll be yours forever. You won’t be able to compete. She’ll be yours only.
I bent down and leveled myself to her. And what do you benefit from this? I asked. I want Jayden Evers.
