Mason

I was so annoyed at Catiana when I first saw her, but I was surprised to see the expression on her face while she was staring at me. I saw longing and devastation when our eyes met. Hanggang sa araw-araw siyang pumupunta sa aking kulungan at dinadalhan ako ng pagkain at card games. Sobra ang inis at galit ko noon dahil sa pagpilit niya sa aking pakasalan siya. No matter how hard I push her away, she would always come back and the smile on her lips never disappeared.

But, I saw pain in her eyes when I first voiced out my thoughts about her. What I said was true. She was really desperate to get my attention and I hate it. At that moment, I was mad at myself for hurting her and I was annoyed at the same time because some guy suddenly butted in, in the middle of our conversation. She immediately ran towards him and hugged him. I felt a wierd. I was annoyed for some reason.

Hindi ako nakakain ng ayos noong mga sumunod na araw. Nanibago ang aking panlasa dahil hindi siya ang nagluto ng mga kinain ko. Nanibago rin ako sa pag-aalalang naramdaman ko noong nagkagulo ang mga tao sa kaniyang silid. Hindi ako nakatulog ng ayos. I was worried and then I discovered about her curse. I felt so bad for rejecting her proposal when the only thing she wanted was to live.

"Mason." I was surprised when she called me by my name for the first time when she woke up from her sleep. It's like a song in my ears but I suddenly missed how she called me "Asawa ko".

Sobra ang naging pagbabago nang hindi siya bumisita sa aking silid na oras-oras niya noong ginagawa. Ni hindi ko alam ang dapat maramdaman nang pakiusapan ako ng Alpha na sumama sa pagpunta sa bundok upang mabigyan ng pangalawang pagkakataon ang kaniyang anak na magkaroon muli ng kabiyak upang mabuhay ito. He begged me to help her daughter. Hindi ko nakita ang Alpha na may awtoridad at makapangyarihan sa mata ng lahat. I only saw a father who loves her daughter so much that he was willing to beg me for help. I was so confused with what I felt at that moment. A part of me is against the idea of helping her to find her mate. I felt so selfish but I wanted her to live so I agreed.

Nakita ko kung gaano siya kadisiplinado sa bawat kilos at galaw niya. Maasikaso rin siya sa aming lahat. It felt good to be under her care.

I felt fear for the first time when I saw her battling with other werewolves. Nakita ko kung paano siya tumilapon sa ere at mabuti na lamang ay nasalo ko siya. It was my first time seeing her using her werewolf strength. She almost has the same power and strength as I am when her eyes haven't even turned to gold. It means it's not her full strength.

I was so mad when I saw the man she once loved. He's not an ordinary human like how Connor described him. I felt the urge to kill him but I stopped myself. I felt my heart beat faster when I saw how she calmed down when our eyes met. Her eyes turned back to brown and her fangs and claws disappeared.

I became extra protective because of what happened that night. Her ex lover wants her back in his arms and I don't know why but I feel like I am willing to destroy everything just to not let that happen.

I was so frustrated and devastated when she was taken away from me. I wanted to go after her but her scent was covered by something.

I remembered how she kissed me when we were under the falls. It felt warm and relaxing at the same time.

I was so happy when I arrived in time to stop the wedding. I saw how her face brightened when she saw me and I felt the same. At that exact time, I finally understood what I feel for her.

I love her and I don't care if she's my mate or not. I love her and she's mine. Only mine.

And now... After all that happened, here I am, standing inside a room with decorations and staring at the beautiful lady slowly walking towards me.

She smiled sweetly at me and I did the same. Everyone is mesmerized by my soon-to-be-wife's beauty. She was wearing a white flowy dress and her hair is like dancing with the wind. It made her look like a Goddess.

"I hope you're not marrying me just because of my curse." sabi niya when she finally stood in front of me. I held her hand to give her assurance.

"I love you." I said and I saw how she looked at me with wide eyes. Her eyes started to water with tears and a smile formed in her lips.

"I love you too." I felt my heart jumped in delight when I heard that.

I really love this woman.

Hindi alam ni Catiana kung saan pa ilalagay ang sayang nararamdaman habang isinasagawa ng matanda ang ritwal. Kinuha niya ang kutsilyo sa ibabaw ng lamesa at hiniwa ang kaniyang palad dahilan upang umagos mula dito ang dugo. Isinahod niya ito sa kopita na nasa harapan nila at saka ibinigay kay Mason ang kutsilyo. Ganoon din ang ginawa ni Mason at nang makapaglagay na ng dugo sa kopita ay kinuha niya ang kopita at dahan-dahang ininom ang dugo na naroroon.

Ibinigay niya kay Mason ang kopita at ininom din nito ang dugo. May mga dasal na sinambit ang matanda upang gumana ang ritwal. Ramdam niya ang kakaiba sa katawan dahil ang dugo ni Mason ay dumadaloy na sa kaniyang katawan. Ramdam niya ang pagbabago ng kulay ng kaniyang mata. Nagkatinginan sila ni Mason and she saw Mason's eyes also turned to blue.

Dumating na ang oras ng pagsusuot ng singsing. Werewolf wedding is not the same as human wedding.

"Mason Finn Madden, ang singsing na ito ay ang konkretong simbolo ng pagmamahal ko sa'yo. I apologize for my aggressive behavior when we first met. I wanted to live my life longer but as time goes by, I only wanted to love you as much as I can. Wala na akong pakialam noon kung pakasalan mo man ako o hindi dahil ang mahalaga ay maiparamdam ko sa'yo na totoo ang pagmamahal ko sa iyo." madamdaming sabi ko. "Mahal na mahal na mahal kita kahit ilang gwapong lalaki pa ang dakipin ako upang gawing asawa." ilan sa mga bisita ang natawa sa sinabi ng dalaga.

"Ikaw lang. Ikaw lang ang laman nito." turo ng dalaga sa kaniyang dibdib kung saan naroroon ang kaniyang puso. Napangiti si Mason sa sinabi ng dalaga habang isinusuot sa kaniya ang singsing. Siya naman ang kumuha ng singsing upang isuot sa daliri ng dalaga.

"Catiana Wixx, I'm sorry for all the things I've said. I know I hurt you but I am willing to make it up to you. I won't make this long because I can't really think of anything to say to you." Catiana giggled with what he said. "Many people say that actions speak louder than words but I will never get tired of telling you how much I love you." sabi ni Mason. Lumamlam ang mata ni Catiana at pinahid ang takas na luha sa mata. 

Namangha si Mason nang sa unang pagkakataon ay nakita niya ang gintong mata ng dalaga.

Tumiyad siya upang makalapit sa binata at yumuko naman ang binata hanggang sa magsalubong ang kanilang labi para sa mainit at madamdaming halik.

"Akin ka lang, Mason." nakangiting bulong ng dalaga at napangiti si Mason.

"I'm all yours."
