Chapter 37
Chapter 37 Ares POV Mia gave us a choice and I know I will break Nora’s heart but will explain to her later and then I will have to suck up for her in my entire life, I just hope that she will not reject me. Mia can take my mark away by transferring it to herself without destroying my bond to Nora, it will work like a temporary tattoo of sorts. It will go away after a couple of days and my bond won’t be destroyed that easily. I love Nora so da mn much, even if I don’t know her but hey we got an entire lifetto get to know one another. We just need to fix my mistake and then, oh goddess, what have I done? Mia and I go into the forest and while she talks about how the whole thing will go I can’t seem to listen to her, I think of Nora when my brother is almost screaming in my mind. I explain to him that is a fake mark and I get Nora will get pi ssed but I will explain to her and I truly hope she will have the heart to forgivebut I doubt it. I can smell her now and the bond tellsthat she is close to us now but so is Helios and I hear her whelp, I bet Helios
tackled her. “So ugly” Mia whispers and looks away from Nora while I growl at her and when I look down at my mate.. She is beautiful but I bet she will look amazing in a full shift. Her fur is midnight black and her eyes are purple and she is sad, devastated. No, it was not supposed to happen like this. Nora cries and I try to speak to her when she suddenly shifts back and I see the largest scar on her back. I was staring to hard on her back to react when she suddenly fell down onto the earth. Helios took her in her arms and then he howled in sadness and I felt my bond to Nora break. The forest are wreaking havoc as it took Mia and strung her up among the tree crowns, roots are breaking up from the ground and slither around my body, the wind is picking up it’s speed but I didn’t
care. I just stared at Nora’s body, wishing with all my being that her heart would start thumping again but it didn’t. After a while the forest stopped moving like it had died too, along with Nora. Helios raised up slowly with Nora’s body in his arms and I didn’t move as it felt like I died with her. Daniel, Ben and Grey crunning through the forest and I got punched by Daniel and again. I didn’t fight back as he beatto a bloo dy pulp. I deserved it, I killed her, I killed Nora and Artemis. I killed my mate. Helios POV I watched as Daniel beat my brother to the ground and I didn’ t say anything, I just wished he would kill me instead but Ben and Grey stopped him from killing Ares. I had Nora in my arms and I carried her out of the forest and as I entered the town below the castle, everyone that was outside, stopped with what they were doing. Everyone bowed their heads in respect, whether it was for me. or for her, I donät know and I didn’t care either. I just want her to cback to me, please moon goddess, bring her back now. I remember the first day I met her, she was dancing with Daniel and even though they weren’t mates, they shared a kiss because of the affection between each other. They are soulmates in a way, their lycans are siblings in a way, a lady and her knight. The first tNora smiled atshe melted my heart. When I saw her fight, she was strong and I wanted to go to a match against her someday. I have wanted to do so many things. with her and I still do but how can I when I know that I also killed her. I should have marked her as soon as she took back her rejection but she never got the chance to do that. Why would Mia move the mark to herself, this is so wrong. I want to put the blon someone else but can’t, this is my fault, I brought her here. On our way up to the castle I am met by all the lycans that Nora healed and they are also grieving, they are forming a shield between us and the others. They all own Nora their life, we all own her. She was
our future queen, the last living female lycan, descendant from two other kingdoms and the moon goddess herself. I am met at the gates by the warriors and my father and uncle Dave, they all stare atand Nora with grief in their eyes. I had her for barely three months and she was loved by all that she met and now all is grieving for her. The mate I have waited for, she is mine even if I have to share her with my brother, I didn’t care even though he did. He 1/4 | never wanted to share and we had so many arguments and fights over that. And look what that lead til’. Nora is dead and I am too in a sense, but it is strange, my bond to her is still there. Is it because I refuse to give up on her? “Elder William, is there any way?” I hear my uncle ask him and he answers but I can’t listen to him. What will we do now without her, I am not giving her up, I will bring her back. She is my mate and I still feel her heartbeat. Wait, what?! I can hear them. Her heartbeat!
