"Did you think healing me would make me love you more?" He scoffed grabbing my hair as he pulled me towards the door. "You're hurting me, Xavier," I cried beating against him weakly. There was not much I could do. "If I ever see you an inch close to me," He threw me against the wall "I'll damn the consequences and kill you,". *** My mate and I were destined to hate each other, only an act of true love or selflessness from the stronger mate could set our destines on the right path but for seven years, I had to put up with my mate's abuse and his supposed love of his life until one day I decided to leave. I left, determined to stay hidden from him forever... but I found out I was pregnant few weeks later.
Selene POV
The moon goddess stared at me for a few minutes and then shook her head
"I'm sorry, but I cannot!" she replied after a few minutes. "If Kragen finds out, he'll try to save you. It'll put him at risk,".
"You said my death will be irreversible, right… he won't stand a chance," I cried. "Please… He needs to know that I choose this for myself. He needs to know at least that much; my death will break him and I know this. He's that way…".
She shook her head again, giving me an apologetic smile "I'm sorry Selene but I cannot grant that wish. You can ask me for anything but that. I need to leave now…".
Without waiting for a reply from me she vanished. I remained there for a few minutes, unable to say a word or think. As I turned to climb down the mountain, I spotted Kurtis at the bottom of the hill staring at me. Trying to wipe off the worst of the tears, I came down mustering a smile as I walked towards him.
