“You’re so wrong, Di, and it’s you who needs to understand. For years, I’ve waited for you to come back here, and now that you’re standing naked in front of me, I can see you’re ready for me.”
Kai stood up slowly, his throbbing erection in full display, and for a second, Di felt the memories bearing down on her again, and she took a step back. That was when Aaron held her by her arms, making her aware of his presence. She looked behind her and felt her heart twist in grief at what she saw…
Despite him being bloody, hurt, and close to losing consciousness due to massive blood loss that his enhanced healing couldn’t handle, he was still ready to fight for her… to protect her…
“I’m sorry, Di… for not following through with… my promise,” he gasped through his words. “I’m sorry that I failed you before… I-I’m sorry that I failed you again… I never want to fail you again.”
Diwa turned around to face her repentant and weakened mate. “I know my love, and I forgive you. Please forgive me, too… for not telling you…”
A loud, anguished, and frustrated scream echoed behind them. Diwa turned her head while Aaron automatically hugged her to him, in an effort to protect her from the one behind her.
“You dare choose this unworthy excuse of a mate over me?! He is soiled! Dirty!
Unclean! But I kept myself only for you, Diwa?! HOW CAN YOU CHOOSE HIM OVER
ME?!” Kaiden crazily screeched at Di, his gaze showing that he was close to completely losing it.
But then, Diwa realized that he was also coming unhinged because the truth had started to dawn on him. And she had every intention of pushing until he finally got it…
“I did not ask you to keep yourself for me, you SICKO! Besides, you’re the one who’s dirty and unclean for forcing me to do things I DON’T WANT! I NEVER WANTED YOU! GET THAT THROUGH YOUR FUCKING THICK SKULL!”
“D-Diwa… No… That’s not possible…”
It was close… she could feel it…
“I love Aaron. I will stay with him, and NO. ONE. ELSE!”
As she said those words, she turned around and pulled her mate to her, her lips hungrily taking his.
It was after three seconds when the couple heard a gut-wrenching screech of fury…
“NOOOOOO!!! KILL THEM! KILL THEM BOTH!!!”
The circle of ferocious werewolves around the mates started closing in. The rogues steadily moved towards them, snarling and growling, sharp claws and fangs on full display. Aaron grasped at the last bit of his renewed energy due to Diwa’s affirmation of their love and managed to merge with the now-motivated Onyx. Diwa also changed to werewolf form and placed herself behind her A, ready to fight back-to-back…
Suddenly screams of terror and pain started exploding from the outer periphery of the rogues’ circle…
A black wolf, followed by a silver one, both bigger than most lycans, mowed their way toward Aaron and Diwa, taking out at least five enemies each before they got to the center. Add five more dead, seconds after they transformed into werewolves. With them on the aggressive, the dirty bunch of rogues started to scatter in different directions in complete panic and terror… But they never got far!
At least three hundred warriors from the Silvercrest pack came bearing down on them, all with the uninhibited intention to kill.
“NOOO! DAMN YOU ALL!” Kaiden yelled and cursed, launching himself towards Aaron, shifting midair, and merging with his equally desperate wolf, Xion.
He landed on his target, pushing him down to the ground, the Beta finally giving in to his weakened state. The villain now started clawing at him, but Aaron managed to still fight bravely, allowing Kaiden a few random scratches only on his werewolf form’s arms.
Suddenly, Kaiden was violently kicked away from atop the Beta, and he rolled quite a distance from the one who had managed to hit him strongly and severely.
“Asshole, your fight is with me!” Diwa announced, determined. No more fear, no more doubts this time.
I am so proud of you, Di!
Thanks, Opal. Now, time to bring this maniac down!
Diwa jumped and landed with both feet on Kaiden’s still turgid manhood and balls with so much strength that she was sure even his ancestors felt it. Her target’s face grimaced into a prune-like expression while squealing like a kid.
Yep, probably up to the first generation too…
Di then leaped up high once more, connecting with a knee to Kaiden’s jaw, WWF style. He instantly lost consciousness.
All the rogues were now either dead or incapacitated, except for Brenner, who was the one responsible for knocking out Myron and Raquel so he could hide and protect them. Alexia and Antoine had joined the group later in the fight to make sure none of their enemies escaped. Ma’Heron and V were now surrounded by their warriors giving their updates. All of them were naked, bloodied but still standing.
However, all of their attention had now settled on a particular unclothed pair in the middle of the clearing, now embracing and kissing each other passionately. Everyone smiled as they realized that this happy couple, who were now finally together, was the biggest proof that they had won…
And the biggest winners were Di and Aaron.
* * *”
Are you ready, cupcake?” Aaron asked his mate as he finished pulling up his backpack and swinging it expertly behind his back.
“Yeah, just finished,” she answered, a full smile on her face.
Aaron had never seen her this happy. Now that there were no more secrets or hidden worries, she was completely comfortable in her skin and was totally at ease.
The couple walked towards the Packhouse parking area, directly approaching Aaron’s car.
“After you, cherry tart,” he smiled, opening the door for her.
“Thank you, my love.”
He then rushed to the driver’s side, got in, and drove to their destination.
