BLUE HOUR: THE FINAL CHAPTER

αмαяιʂ ∂αɳყα

Ysabella had finally finished her travels and finally arrived at her last destination. The place where she decided to settle as she waits for her demon.

The Cenacle.

A place where a demon would impossibly go to but Ysabella knows Yalex is different. That the lengths be can cross for her is unimaginable be it the heavens.

She patiently waited there and as she did, she was also able to learn a lot of religious things and grew to be fond of it.

Everynight, Ysabella will fly on the roof of the upper room where she quietly gazes at the stars. Allowing herself to indulge on the idea of how the universe is vast. It's been her habit as she stays in that place.

Days turned to months and months turned to years. But she never gets tired of waiting. It's like the love she has for him is what makes her stay patient and never once question what's taking Yalex long.

All Ysabella believes is that he will come and all she needs is to wait.

And finally. After 10 years of waiting.

It was March 15 where the world happens to also celebrate as True Confessions Day.

Ysabella could not stop feeling the excitement on her chest. It's like she can tell from the air she's breathing that Yalex finally returns to earth.

The excitement and need to see him were incomparable and undescribable. She made sure to finish all she needed to do before going to her favorite spot to wait for him.

Even though it was taking hours and even close to midnight. Ysabella could only feel the delightment of seeing him again.

She looked at her watch and stared at it. Watching as the digits eventually showed the time as 10 pm.

A soft smile made its way to her lips as she felt familiar arms wrapped around her.

It made her feel warm and comfortable.

She leaned back for more comfort and felt a chaste kiss on her temple.

"I missed you..." Yalex hummed to her ears before gently turning her to face him.

They stared at each other for a while. The thoughts that nothing changes relieved them and it felt nice to stare at each other again. With nothing but admiration and sincere emotions.

"I miss you too." Ysabella replied exactly how she feels.

She grabbed Yalex by his nape and pulled him close for a kiss. It was soft and slow and simply showed how much patience Ysabella used to wait for him. And Yalex could never express it in words of how thankful he is.

"Come on. I want to tell you something." Yalex hummed between their kisses just as they were engulfed by a blue fire.

Ysabella would care less where he takes her. But something felt familiar from the new location they are at.

It was the cave where she and Kitsch broke out of their eggs and were sheltered.

"Home." Ysabella mumbled and looked at Yalex with a full smile.

Yalex smiled unconsciously. Staring at her eyes as if it held the entire universe.

"I love you so much Ysabella. And you mean the entire universe to me. I trust you more than I trust myself." Yalex started talking as he placed his left hand to gently caress her cheek.

Ysabella held onto his wrist and leaned closer to the touch. It made her feel very cozy.

"I trust you two. And I'm willing to do more than wait for 10 years or more." She hummed and stared back into his eyes.

"Thank you for waiting for me. Even though I took longer than what I promised. I'm so grateful that you waited." He said and Ysabella let out a proud giggle.

"You know. I have been thinking about doing this ever since the day I left. And I had to make sure about many things that took me years before I could come back. I needed to make sure..." Yalex explained and Ysabella gave him a questioning look.

"Make sure? About what?" She asked innocently while still holding his wrist.

"Do you still remember what I said about my name? The day when Caspian was born?" Yalex asked and Ysabella thought about it for a moment before nodding her head.

"Trevor said that you were named as a punishment by God given to your father." She said and Yalex smiled nodding his head.

He pulled his hand and made a single step back before he suddenly knelt down in front of her. For demons, kneeling is an act of submission and no higher demons does it but Yalex did. Being fully aware of that, it made Ysabella feel more important to him.

"I spent my years being away from you to find a way to show you my loyalty. You've always proven to me how much love and trust you are willing to give. That you would even give your life."

"I want to show you too that I can do that."

"But you already did. Don't you remember? You became a human for me and that meant the universe to me, Yalex. I could never ask for more." She said as her voice eventually started to break.

Tears were forming in her eyes and she couldn't help but tear up in that situation.

Yalex smiled and nodded. Reaching to hold onto her hands and placing soft kisses on top of them.

"I remember. But I want to prove it to you more than just becoming a human."

"I want you to know something that no one else does."

"I'm sorry if it took years. I wanted to be sure that once I tell you, I won't end up killing you by knowing it. And now I'm here."

Yalex then stood up and looked at her proudly.

Ysabella seems to have an idea of what he meant. But instead of being afraid it might indeed curse her or worse, kill her. She is more worried knowing how sensitive this is for him given what his name truly meant.

"I have learned to control my own curse. And I can decide to change its curse for you. That instead of killing you, knowing this can bind you with me for eternity. It will become a curse that will keep us together forever."

"I want you to think of this very carefully, Ysabella. Because I don't want you to be bonded into something that will never be undone."

"But if you are willing to spend eternity with me... I ask you to ask me my name...."

Ysabella looked down trying to suppress her tears. She never felt this happy before and could hardly express how grateful she felt from how Yalex was willing to give this much trust to her.

"I trust you just as you trust me darling. And I'd never give it a second thought if it means to be with you." She said.

"So if spending an eternity with you is what it takes..."

"Then I ask you to tell me your true name."

"My name is Amaris Danya."
