Chapter 189
Thunder: (Logan's Wolf)
Ever since I was given to Logan as his wolf companion, it had been endless nights of excruciating pain. But today it was worse, I was getting near to the end, I knew I was leaving soon and I was craving blood but I didn't want to shift and drink directly from Akira.
Logan and I know the implications of letting me out to drink from Akira even though she was the supposed cure to the pain. Even though her blood was the cure that doesn't guarantee that I will be with him when he gets the cure. One of us has to die, and I chose Logan to stay behind while going back to the moon goddess if ever we are given a chance to live more years.
Logan has refused to drink from Akira especially with the pup growing inside of her, but today, he can't because Akira wasn't letting him refuse the blood, I tried to fight the urge as soon as I tasted Akira's blood through Logan but it was too late because I was already out, pushing to the surface.
I heard Logan telling Akira to run, but she was stubborn, she refused to run away from the monster me.
I shifted, and the fear that I was going to hurt Akira and my unborn pup, built in me, I didn't want to, but she was brave, she wiped the side of her neck knowing that my gaze was focused there. She asked if I wanted to bite her there. I wasn't expecting that she would be so bold to her bare a neck for me.
That act of hers warmed my heart, that if I am no longer here, Logan will be in a good hand, in the hand of someone who loves him. 'Just a little taste and I will pull out.' those words I enchanted in my head as my fangs sank into her and started drinking from her. I was going to close her wounds immediately after I got enough from her.
I had no plans of draining her completely, but fuck me, I lose, I couldn't stop myself, as soon as the drop of her blood reach my throat. I kept drinking and hoping that she would push me away or do something to knock me back to my senses but she wasn't doing any of that, she just kept indulging me.
When I heard her weak voice suddenly in my head, calling out to me, I knew I should pull off, and someone else scent hit me, it's the girl, Logan told me, is her guardian that on no account should we drained Akira's blood this will means danger for her and Akira. I cursed in my head as I pulled away, wanting to close her wounds, but it was too late, I was already choking and on the verge of dying. My throat was clouded and my stomach churned. I started coughing and having a shortage of breath. I wanted it to stop, so I could cover the wounds on her arms and neck. I didn't want her to bleed to death but it seemed my airway was blocking and my breath was snapping away. Damn, this fucking thing, rolling in my tummy, came down to my throat and I found myself throwing up.
I was vomiting like a woman in her first trimester, wanting to offload everything inside my intestines. Was this how Akira felt when she had those early morning fevers? If it was, this was bad, and I felt sorry for her and now I am hurting her. I was so fucking weak when I thought I have emptied everything in there, I tried to stand up but I couldn't, I was so weak like the first time, I shifted.
I knew this was the straw that broke the Camel's back.
My vision was blurry as my body succumbed to the pain and collapsed on the floor, I wanted to go back to Akira and breathe her scent for the last time but she was already too weak like me, and her best friend Vida was already crouching beside her, urging her to take from her.
Fuck me...
Vida will be in danger as well, and in a blink, Akira's magic envelopes her, sapping her energy, my eyes widen seeing what is becoming of Vida, her skin is paler, and turning dark, and my eyes widen, knowing Vida is exchanging hers for Akira. "no... Meredith will..." Those words I wanted to shout out before I heard Meredith's voice, the shock and fear on his face and voice were enough to show the pain I had caused him.
"I am sorry..." I murmured in my head as my body finally crumpled to the ground. I know this is the end for me, but I am hoping Logan survives.
"Luna..." I heard my beta and gamma call out to my mate, I wanted to force my eyes to stay open, to see what was happening to my mate but I couldn't, I knew it was coming to an end. My breath was hiking, I couldn't hear a single word from what they were saying, my sense of hearing and sight were fading away, and my eyes were blurry until I shrank back into my human form, I was still feeling my mate's scent until suddenly I heard my name and her scent fade completely from me.
"C'mon let's go..." I heard that soft voice and a warm arm caressing my fur. I knew that feelings were from the moon goddess. I snapped my eyes open and looked at him. "let's go home child..."
I tried to stand up, hoping the pain would visit me but they were gone, and she gave me that beautiful smile. The moon goddess had always been beautiful but I couldn't find her smile beautiful today. There is just one smile, I want to see, the smile of the female, the goddess had given me. "They are gone, I took them away."
"Oh..." That was all I said before I walked towards her, suddenly darkness crowded my eyes, and I remembered my human counterpart, I thought wolves don't remember their human but I did, and it hurt me that I was leaving him behind.
"What is it?" The moon goddess asked the moment, she saw my expression.
"Logan..."
"He will be fine," she said nonchalantly, I signed as my face fell low.
"You should be happy that he is safe..." I let out a forceful smile but my face was still low.
"I didn't say goodbye."
"He will understand and you too will unite one day." Her words trigger my thoughts, my eyes move to her.
"Are you taking him away as well?" She averted her snow eyes from me, I ran after her. "Please answer me, you are taking Logan from Akira and our Pup?"
