I don't known what is happening with me and how this anger will end? I glance all around and tried to clam over my anger. Marlow said," You want to join me in dance?"
" Yes sure why not?"
She took me towards the dancing floor and said," Just feel the moment if my body! if you want to feel the dance just enjoy the moments."
The club is a dazzling spectacle of lights, colors and sounds. The DJ plays the latest hits, and the crowd goes wild. The air is thick with smoke and perfume, and the floor vibrates with the bass. I feel like I'm in a dream, dancing with Marlow. she holds me tight, and we move in harmony.
Her body is hot and hard, and I feel her heartbeat. she whispers sweet nothings in my ear, and I laugh. She was enjoying the beat of music with every dance move. I was enjoying her sexy body shape but I was unaware from strome which was moving towards me slowly.
she kisses me tenderly, and I lose myself in her. We are in our own bubble, dancing with each other. Out of nowhere, I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around and see a familiar face. It's valintina!
I guess I was not expecting such kind of drama from her? I known that she here to say bullshits.
I looked towards her and her condition was bad, her eyes makeup was falling down, her eyes were red and she was not looking like she always look. Maybe I hurt her more. She looks thrilled and anxious. She says something, but I can't hear her over the loud music. I ask her to repeat it, and she leans in closer. She tells me something that makes my heart stop.
" I'M GOING TO KILL YOUR ASILING SOON?"
My heart stopped that what she is saying? I hold her hand and drag out from the club. I knew it that she is mad and she can do anything to take revenge from her.
She looked worried and concerned. She told me to calm down and come with me.
she pushed Marlow from me and warn her, " DON'T YOU EVER TRY TO CLOSE WITH HIM. HE IS MINE AND YOU ARE JUST IRRITATING ME."
" VALINTINA NOW YOU ARE CROSSING YOUR LIMITS ? WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED WITH YOU?"
" I WILL DEFINITELY TELL YOY THAT WHAT HAPPENED TO ME I WILL GIVE YOU EVERY EXCUSE AND REASON BUT FIRST CAME OUT WITH ME."
She quickly took me out from the club. I was already drunk and everything was looking blur in front of my eyes.
She said this was not the place to make a scene. She said we should talk outside. She dragged me away from Marlow, who was calling my name. I followed her, still fuming and crying. We made our way through the crowd, towards the exit. We left the club, and stepped into the night.
We reach the parking lot, and I saw Aria was there," lets go of my arm" I said.
She turns to face me, and I see anger in her eyes. She says she has something to tell me. She says she can't keep it in anymore. She says she loves me. She says she has loved me since we were kids. She says she was hoping that I would choose her as my mate.
" Since from childhood I like you since from childhood I love you so why you choose that bitch over me tell me what was the reason of rejection? why you show me that I don't deserve you? why you changed like in second. She has a bond with azalaic don't you known. she is cheating you how can you became blind. "
" Because I can't afford to marry you. You are not a type of me. "
" Okay I understand that I'm not capable of this relationship but tell me what is in her? tell me what why you choose her over me. "
I was already drunk do I was struggling to give her answers. I tried to get in the posture to stand straight but I failed.
She was constantly yelling on me and pushing me for the answer.
" I don't want to marry you that is only my answer."
" She was already in a relationship with azalaic so still you love her? still you take her as your mate tell me?"
" I don't known what are you talking but I known one thing that she is perfect match for me and I don't want to lose her for you. You will never take her position in my heart."
" Yeah I can see it. "
Aria looked towards me with strange eyes, she looked towards me and everything start getting more blur.
She says she was devastated when I chose Asiling instead. She says she doesn't understand why I did that. She says Asiling is not right for me. She says she is selfish and manipulative. She says she doesn't deserve me. She says I deserve someone who loves me more than anything. She says she is that someone. She says she wants to be with me. She says she wants me to leave Asiling and be with her. She says she is my true mate. She was using rush words for her which was constantly mocking me. I was expecting this kind of behavior from her it was obvious that she doesn't like it. I known she is jealous from asiling well mannered behavior and charming personality. She is jealous from her looks.
I remember that when asiling entered with me in the ball room, valentina felt a surge of jealousy and insecurity as she watched Asiling walk into the room. She couldn't help but compare herself to the stunning woman, who seemed to radiate beauty and charm with every step. Asiling had flawless skin, sparkling eyes, and glossy hair that cascaded over her shoulders. She wore a dress that hugged her curves and accentuated her slender waist. She smiled and greeted everyone with ease, making them laugh and admire her. Valentina felt like a shadow next to her, plain and boring, with nothing to offer. She wished she could be more like Asiling, or at least have some of her confidence and grace. She wondered if anyone even noticed her, or if they only had eyes for Asiling. She felt a pang of resentment and bitterness, wishing Asiling would just disappear.
She was next to me which was giving her shocks. I known she always be jealous from her that's why I choose her as my mate.
I remember that when I was the one who always look forward to her but when I saw a darkness inside her heart than I took few steps back.
I could sense Valentina's negativity from across the another country. She was staring at me with a cold and hostile expression, as if she hated person for there existence. I knew she was jealous of me, of my looks, my popularity, my success.
I stare at her, speechless. I can't believe what I'm hearing. I can't believe she feels this way about me. I can't believe she kept it from me for so long. I don't know what to say. I don't know how to feel. I'm still angry and hurt by Marlow's betrayal, but now I'm also confused and conflicted by Valentina's confession. I love her, but not in that way. I love her as a friend, as a sister, but not as a lover, not as a mate. I love Asiling, with all my heart and soul. She is my mate, my other half, my everything. I chose her, and I don't regret it. I don't want to leave her, ever.
She was always trying to undermine me, to spread rumors about me, to sabotage my projects. She was a toxic person who only wanted to bring me down. I felt sorry for her, but also angry and disgusted. How could she be so petty and spiteful? Why couldn't she just leave me alone? I tried to ignore her, but I felt her eyes burning into me, as if she was plotting something evil against me. I wished she would just go away.
I remember when she planned vicious things in our house.
I try to explain this to Valentina, but she doesn't listen. She interrupts me, and starts yelling at me. She says I'm making a mistake. She says I'm blind and stupid. She says I'm wasting my life with Asiling. She says she can make me happier than Asiling ever could. She says she knows me better than anyone else. She says we belong together, and nothing can change that.
She steps closer to me, and tries to kiss me. I push her away, and tell her to stop. I tell her this is wrong, and we can't do this. I tell her we are friends, nothing more. I tell her I love Asiling, and only Asiling.
She slaps me, hard. It stings, but not as much as the look in her eyes. It's a look of hatred, of betrayal, of rejection.
She screams at me, and tells me to go to hell. She runs away, leaving me alone in the dark. I feel a tear roll down my cheek.
I don't know what to do. I don't know what to think. I don't know what to feel.
She stops running, and turns around. She looks at me with a mix of anger and pain. She asks me why. Why did I reject her? Why did I choose Asiling over her? Why did I break her heart?
I sigh, and try to calm myself. I walk towards her, slowly and carefully. I don't want to make things worse. I don't want to hurt her more than I already have. I want to be honest, but gentle. I want to be firm, but kind.
I reach her, and look into her eyes. I tell her the truth. I tell her that I'm sorry, but I don't love her in that way. I tell her that she is my friend, my best friend, but not my mate. I tell her that I love Asiling, and she is my mate. I tell her that it's not a choice, it's a bond. A bond that can't be broken, or ignored, or replaced. A bond that is stronger than anything else.
I tell her that I care about her, and I don't want to lose her as a friend. I tell her that I hope she can understand, and forgive me. I tell her that I hope she can find happiness, with someone else.
She listens to me, silently. She doesn't say anything. She doesn't cry, or scream, or slap me again. She just nods, slowly.
She says okay.
In a moment someone hit on my back and I fall down on the road. Everything became dark and I saw valintina and aria came towards me. I ask for help than I went into a dark world.
ASILING ( POV )
I found myself in the darkest forest and running towards the hauling of jungle.
The forest was dark and silent, as if it was holding its breath. The trees were tall and twisted, their branches reaching out like claws. The leaves were thick and black, blocking out any light from the sky. The ground was covered with roots and vines, making it hard to walk. The air was cold and damp, filled with a musty smell of decay.
I felt a shiver run down my spine, as I heard a rustle in the bushes. I turned around, but I saw nothing. I quickened my pace, hoping to find a way out of this nightmare. But the forest seemed endless, a maze of shadows and secrets.
I wondered what lurked in the darkness, what eyes were watching me, what teeth were waiting to bite. I wondered if I would ever see the sun again, or if I would die here, alone and forgotten.
I was running through the dark jungle, feeling the thorns and branches scratch my skin. I could hear the howls and growls of wild animals behind me, getting closer and closer. I didn't know where I was going, but I had to get away from them.
I stumbled upon a clearing, where a dim light shone from a fire. I saw a figure lying on the ground, covered in blood. It was Archard, my best friend. He looked pale and weak, his eyes barely open.
"Archard!" I shouted, running towards him. "What happened to you?"
He coughed and whispered, "They got me... they got me good..."
"Who? Who got you?" I asked, trying to stop the bleeding from his wounds.
He pointed to the shadows, where I saw a pair of glowing red eyes. Then another pair. And another. They were surrounding us, closing in.
"They..." he said, his voice fading. "They are the hunters... and we are the prey..."
I heard a loud roar behind me, and I turned to see Valintina emerging from the trees. She was a beautiful and fierce werewolf, with silver fur and blue eyes. She was also Archard's ex-girlfriend, and she hated me with a passion.
She snarled at me, showing her sharp fangs. "There you are, you little bitch. I've been looking for you."
I backed away, feeling my heart pounding in my chest. "What do you want, Valintina? Leave me alone."
She laughed, a cruel and mocking sound. "Oh, don't play dumb with me. You know what I want. I want Archard back. He's mine, not yours."
I shook my head, feeling a surge of anger. "He's not yours, Valintina. He never was. He broke up with you, remember? He chose me as his mate, not you."
She growled, her eyes flashing with rage. "He didn't choose you, he was tricked by you. You used some kind of magic or spell to make him fall for you. You're a witch, a liar, a thief."
I glance back and archard disappeared!
I clenched my fists, feeling my own wolf rising inside me. "That's not true, Valintina. I didn't use anything on him. He loves me for who I am, not for what I can do. He loves me because I'm his true mate, his soulmate."
She scoffed, her voice dripping with contempt. "His true mate? His soulmate? Don't make me laugh. You're nothing but a pathetic human, a weak and worthless creature. You don't deserve him, you don't deserve his love."
I glared at her, feeling my courage growing. "You're wrong, Valintina. You're the one who doesn't deserve him. You're the one who treated him like dirt, who cheated on him, who hurt him. You're the one who made him miserable, who made him unhappy."
She lunged at me, her claws aiming for my throat. "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!"
I dodged her attack, and kicked her in the stomach. She stumbled back, and I took the opportunity to run. I had to find Archard, I had to warn him.
She chased after me, her voice echoing in the forest. "You can run, but you can't hide. I'll find you, and I'll kill you. And then I'll take Archard back, and make him mine again."
I ignored her threats, and focused on my destination. I knew where Archard was waiting for me, in our secret spot by the lake. I hoped he was safe, I hoped he was okay.
I loved him more than anything in the world, and I would do anything to protect him.
Even if it meant facing Valintina.
I ran as fast as I could, dodging the trees and branches that blocked my way. I could hear Valintina behind me, getting closer and closer. She was faster and stronger than me, and I knew I couldn't outrun her for long.
I had to reach Archard, I had to warn him. He was waiting for me by the waterfall, our secret spot where we used to meet. He had told me to meet him there tonight, to celebrate our anniversary. He had said he had a surprise for me, something special.
I wondered what it was, and I hoped it was something good. I hoped it was something that would make us happy, that would make us forget all our troubles.
I reached the edge of the forest, and I saw the waterfall in front of me. It was a beautiful sight, a cascade of water shining under the moonlight. I heard Archard's voice, calling my name.
" Asiling! asiling! Where are you?"
I smiled, feeling a wave of relief. He was here, he was safe. I ran towards him, shouting his name.
"Archard! Archard! I'm here!"
He turned around, and I saw his face. It was covered in blood. He had a deep gash on his forehead, and bruises on his cheeks. He looked pale and weak, his eyes barely open.
He saw me, and he smiled. A weak and sad smile.
"Asiling... you came..."
I gasped, feeling a pang of fear. "Archard! What happened to you? Who did this to you?"
He coughed, and blood dripped from his mouth. "It was... Valintina... she found me... she attacked me..."
I felt a surge of anger, mixed with guilt. "Valintina? She did this to you? Oh Archard, I'm so sorry... it's my fault... she followed me here... she wants to kill me..."
He shook his head, and reached for my hand. "No... don't blame yourself... it's not your fault... it's hers... she's crazy... she's obsessed..."
He squeezed my hand, and looked into my eyes. " Asiling.. listen to me... I love you... you're my mate... my soulmate... nothing will ever change that..."
He paused, and took a deep breath. " Asiling... I have something for you... something important..."
He reached into his pocket, and pulled out a small box. He opened it, and showed me what was inside.
It was a ring. A beautiful ring, with a silver band and a blue stone. It sparkled under the moonlight, like a star.
It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.
He smiled, and spoke with a weak voice. "Asiling... will you marry me?"
" Marriage!".. A real marriage. "
I woke up with a scream, feeling a cold sweat on my forehead. I had the same nightmare again, the one that haunted me every night. The one where I was running in the dark forest, chased by Valintina. The one where I found Archard dying by the waterfall, asking me to marry him.
I opened my eyes, and looked around. I was in my bedroom. I thought that may be I'm seeing them because I am thinking too much about them. I gaze over the time clock and it was already 5 o'clock of morning! why archard is still missing ? why he is not here ? I checked the cellphone but I don't get any call and massage from him.
Ohhh asiling is he still angry on me? what happened to him. I quickly waked up from the bed and checked out from the window. There was a negative thoughts coming into my mind that may be something happened to him?
I looked at the clock, and felt a pang of anxiety. It was 5 o'clock in the evening, and Archard was still missing. He had left for work in the morning, and he had promised to call me when he arrived. But he never did.
I tried to call him, several times, but he didn't answer. I sent him messages, but he didn't reply. I checked his social media, but he didn't post anything. I had no idea where he was, or what he was doing.
I felt a surge of negative thoughts, filling my mind with doubts and fears. What if he was in trouble? What if he was hurt? What if he was kidnapped? What if he was dead?
Or worse, what if he didn't love me anymore? What if he had found someone else? What if he had lied to me? What if he had cheated on me?
I shook my head, trying to get rid of these thoughts. I loved Archard, and I trusted him. He loved me too, and he wouldn't do anything to hurt me. He was probably just busy, or stuck in traffic, or had a phone problem. He would call me soon, and explain everything.
He would tell me that he was sorry, that he missed me, that he loved me.
He would tell me that I was his mate, his soulmate. What happened asiling you are not his real mate and he just your fake mate. your real mate is azalaic but than I thought that I have a care for him. I have to find him.
I have to do something, it is happening because of me? he is missing because of me? I fought with him? ohhh asiling his family will definitely blame you. they will kill you if something happened to him. You have to find him as soon as possible.
After few minutes of wait I checked time again and still there is no sign of him.
Nothing would ever change that.
But as the minutes turned into hours, and the hours turned into night, I felt my hope fading away.
I felt my heart breaking.
I couldn't take it anymore. I had to find Archard, I had to know he was okay. I decided to go downstairs, and ask for help from his family. They lived in the same floor as us I think so , on the first floor. They were a large and loud werewolf clan, who welcomed me as one of their own like his brother James I definitely say he going to help me.
I grabbed my coat and keys, and ran out from the room. I took the stairs, and knocked on the door of his brother James room. I hoped they were awake, and they knew something.
He was a handsome and charming werewolf, with blond hair and blue eyes. He looked at me with curiosity, and annoyance.
"Asiling? What are you doing here? Do you know what time it is?"
I nodded, feeling tears in my eyes. "Yes, yes, I do. It's late, too late. It's Archard. He's missing. He didn't call me, he didn't come home. I don't know where he is."
" What? where is he? "
" I don't known may be something is happened to him? I don't known how I will deal with it could you please help me. "
" Yes sure!... let me help you. "
He grab his coat and we walked out from the mension without coming in knowledge of other family members. He took the car out from the garage and asked me," what do you think? where he would be? "
" I don't known? may be he is at farmhouse? because he was angry on me. "
" I guess than he must be in the club. '
" Club?"
" Yeah city club! it is his favorite club. He always went there for the help."
I was nervous. I had to find Archard, I had to know he was okay. I decided to go with James to the city club, where Archard used to get peace in such a bad place. It was a popular and crowded place, where people went to dance and drink. It was also a place where trouble could happen.
James had offered to take me there, after we received a tip from one of Archard's friends. He said he had seen Archard there earlier, talking to some shady-looking guys. He said he looked worried, and scared.
I wondered what he was doing there, and who he was talking to. I wondered if he was in danger, or if he had done something wrong.
I got in James's car, and he drove us to the city club. He was a good driver, fast and smooth. He looked at me with concern, and tried to cheer me up.
"Asiling, don't worry. We'll find him. He's probably fine, just having some fun."
I shook my head, feeling doubtful. "I don't think so, James. He wouldn't go there without telling me. He wouldn't ignore my calls and messages. He wouldn't leave me hanging."
He sighed, and nodded. "You're right, Asiling. He wouldn't do that. He loves you too much. He must have a good reason for being there."
He paused, and looked at me with curiosity. " Asiling, can I ask you something?"
I nodded, feeling curious too. "Sure, James. What is it?"
He smiled, and asked me a question. " Asiling, how did you and Archard meet? How did you fall in love?"
I smiled, and remembered our first meeting. It was a year ago, at a bookstore. I was browsing the shelves, looking for a good book to read. He was working there, as a cashier. He saw me, and approached me. He asked me what I liked to read, and recommended me some books. He was friendly, and funny, and smart. He had a beautiful smile, and sparkling eyes.
We started talking, and we hit it off. We had a lot in common, and we enjoyed each other's company. He asked me for my number, and I gave it to him. He called me later that day, and asked me out. I said yes, and we went on our first date.
We went to a movie, and then to a coffee shop. We talked for hours, and we felt a connection. We felt a spark. We felt something more.
He kissed me goodnight, and I felt butterflies in my stomach. He told me he liked me, and I told him I liked him too.
He also told me he was a werewolf.
I was shocked, and scared, and curious. He explained to me what it meant, how he lived, how he changed. He showed me his wolf form, and I was amazed. He was a beautiful and majestic creature, with black fur and blue eyes.
He also told me he was my mate.
I was confused, and surprised, and intrigued. He explained to me what it meant, how we were destined, how we were bonded. He showed me his mark on my neck, and I was stunned. It was a small bite mark, that only he could see.
He also told me he loved me.
I was happy, and touched, and moved. He said it with sincerity, with passion, with emotion. He showed me his love with his words, his actions, his gestures.
He also asked me to love him back.
I did. I told him I loved him too.
We became a couple, and we were happy. We faced some challenges, some difficulties, some dangers. But we overcame them together, with our love, our trust, our loyalty.
We became mates, and we were happy. We became soulmates. Nothing would ever change that.
I told James our story, and he listened with interest. He smiled, and complimented us.
