Chapter 132
Fiona would have brushed it off if she had thought of it yesterday, but now that she saw it, she knew. He loved her, and that was why, despite what he wanted to do to her, he wouldn’t let Mischief harm her. This was why Mischief hated her and wanted her dead.
She witnessed the truth: he loved her, an emotion he didn’t have with Mischief.
She told herself that he killed Mischief for his own gain, but there was no gain in it; he killed Mischief because he loved her.
“I don’t love you.” He denied the truth in his eyes.
A small smile crossed her face. “You do not have to deny it; I die here, remember? I know it wasn’t a part of your plan when all this started, but you can accept the truth about yourself and who you love.” She told him.
“Fiona-”
“I will give you my heart, but I want you to swear you will not harm Julian or my sons. Swear you
will not deal cruelly with my world. We are just casualties, fighting to survive in this, too.”
“I swear.” He answered, and he meant it.
“Thank you,” she said, nodding and walking towards the altar.
She came there and helped herself onto it. She laid on her back, and her eyes fluttered as she awaited him to do what he had brought her here to do.
He stepped over to her and moved to work, and he drew over her exposed skin with a cold and sticky substance. She didn’t open her eyes to see him do what he did; she knew if she did, she would no longer be brave.
Her mind wandered to Julian. He would probably never know why she went with Doom; he would never know she did it for him and everything she loved. She thought about June and Jashin, her little warriors. She won’t see them become good men and find suitable mates. Her mind wandered to Camila and Peter, remembering her promise to be there for their future children. Last, she thought about her world and everyone she had gotten to know and met. Marion, Kenneth, Alpha Lupe, Beta Hanna, Beta Isaac, and Alpha Lukas, to name a few.
She would remain brave. So that when Julian comes to meet her in the life beyond many, many decades from now, she will speak of today. She would tell him how she did not fear death while she stared him in the face. She would tell him this while welcoming him. They will be together and never be
apart.

Doom drew his hand away from her, and she felt a cold grip on her skin. Ease came to all her aching bones, and with this ease came the strength she hadn’t felt in a while. Perhaps this was a part of the ritual of harvest.
“You are right,” he began, and going against her better judgment, her lashes fluttered to see him seated beside her on the altar.
“Right, about what?”
“I love you.” He answered, then added, “And I never wanted any of this. Telling myself I did
gave me purpose and the will to continue. I love her despite everything, and all this is to get her attention. The lack of it has been the worst punishment she could have given.”
He turned to her, “I needed your heart; I needed it because it’s the only way I can exist without longing for what I once had with her, but I don’t want it anymore.”
Fiona’s heart swelled at the last line; it felt almost like a dream. He didn’t want to kill her; he changed his mind.
“I came into the world of the living with one goal: to get the heart of the silver wolf and subdue the two worlds with Mischief by my side. Then I met you, and a lot of things changed. I love you, and I do not want to harm you.”
“Then what did you do to me?” She asked, because his hands were all over her body. And the white ink was still on her.
“I healed you
and restored your abilities,” he replied without hesitation. “You now have the power you gave up for your mate.”
She pulled herself to sit down instantly, as confusion held her tightly. “Why?”
He glanced at her and smiled. He smiled though and that was the second most perfect sight, first being Julian.
He looked away. “Because I want to believe that I am not completely evil.”
She exhaled in relief, but she still couldn’t believe it.
“What are you going to do now, then?” She asked.
“I do not want to return to the dark world, and even if I want to, I can’t. The gates are forever closed, and no one can go in or out. Closing its gates was a part of my plan, but now I don’t know where I belong.” he chuckled adding, “Cillian is just like me, trapped in the warehouse, wondering where he is. Perhaps we were never meant to fit in.”
“I don’t believe that.” She rejected his last words.

He glanced at her with glowing eyes, but said nothing.
“What will you do from here on?” she asked after a moment of silence went by.
“I haven’t thought that far yet.”

“Whatever you plan, I will support you.” She said that and placed her hand on his.

He glanced up at her, and their gazes locked. They both remained silent, and though she wanted to speak, she couldn’t. With no words uttered, he leaned in and slowly took her lips between his for a tender kiss.
