Always My Luna

27

    Levi's POV
   
    I can't believe it.  I was right.  I was set up by Damon.  That asshole.  He made me believe that he loved me, that he needed me.  It was all a ploy to get me back so Tamara can rub it in my face.  That bastard.
   
    "What the fuck is going on?"  I growl and  I swear I see regret and sadness in Damon's eyes, but I wasn't falling for it.  He already lied to me for weeks and now he shows regret?  Fuck that.  He regrets nothing, but he will.
   
    "Oh sweetheart, haven't you guessed it already?  Damon is mine, always was and always will be.  I will be the Luna.  Did you think he loved you? Hahahaha, oh sweetie, it''s ok, I can forgive you of that because he is pretty hot and can be very convincing.  But now it's time to rid myself of a thorn in my side and guess who said he would do it?"  Tamara looks back over her shoulder at Damon, "That's right, Damon said he would gladly kill you."  She looks back at me and smiles,  "He said you were weak, not Luna material, unlike me.  He said he loved me and he was just testing me with the whole break up thing.  That's ok I understand my baby's motives.  We love each other, Levi, and you are just a non-sequential part of our equation." 
   
    Tamara turns around and gets up on her tip toes and wraps her arms around Damon's neck and kisses him.  Damon wraps his arms around her waist and kisses her back.  He looks up at me and tears are forming in my eyes, blurring my vision so I don't see him give me a wink. 
   
    "Fine, Damon has made up his mind and it's you he wants."  Tamara breaks the kiss and looks at me.  By now the tears have started to fall down my cheeks.  I angrily wipe them away.  Claire is growling in my head as she heals my leg.  'Something isn't right here, Levi.  I don't think Damon is really with her.'
   
    'Claire, he just kissed her in front of me, of course he chose her.  I don't know why I thought it was a good idea to come back and stay here.  We need to leave and never come back.  I will never find love as I can't reject him but..wait..is that what is happening?  Is he going to reject me and make me accept it?  That will kill us Claire!!'
   
    'No, Jasper is going crazy.  He is saying for us to leave.  She is getting Damon to tie us up and set the cabin on fire.  She wants Damon to kill us with fire, that's the only way to kill me.  Rejection will only send me back to the Moon Goddess and leave you wolfless, but fire will kill me.  And you.  We will feel it too, I can't block that out.'
   
    Damon takes advantage of me talking to Claire and grabs me.  I start to scream and fight him.  Hitting his chest and I lay a good right hook on his jaw that sends his head twisting to the side.  He growls at me and throws me over his shoulder and walks out to where the chair is sitting in the middle of the room.  It's there that I see 3 canisters of gasoline.  I can smell gas, so I know they've already poured some around.
   
    I can't believe that my mate is really going to kill me, burn me alive.  "Damon, wait please, don't do this.  If you want to be with Tamara, then fine, I'll leave and never come back, I swear."  I see him look at me and I can't believe it, there are tears in his eyes.  "Damon, please, if you ever loved me, even just a bit, for like 5 minutes, please, don't kill me."  Tears are coming down my face and i feel desperate.  He's tying up my hands to the chair, the same chair I literally just escaped from.  He's not listening to me and he just keeps tying me up. 
   
    I hear a sniffle and look down to see tears running down his cheeks.  "You better not be crying or having second thoughts Damon.  I will do what I said, so she's a goner anyways."
   
    Damon look at up at Tamara, "No baby, I don't care about her,". My heart is completely crushed now Claire is howling in my head, "it's just the fumes are a bit strong."  He fakes a cough and looks at me.  That's when I see it..the wink.  During one of is coughs I hear him mask the word, "love" as he looks right at me.
   
    Oh my Goddess, this bitch is forcing him to do this!!  Damon sees I'v caught on and slightly shakes his head, telling me to not let on that I know.  So I continue with my begging and crying,  "Please, please Damon, don't do this.  Please, I don't want to die, please, don't kill me."  I see him flinch as he's tying my feet to the chair and his fingers fumble with the rope.
   
    Then that voice, like nails on a chalk board come to my ears, "beg all you want bitch, you gonna be crispy in less than 30 minutes.  I know you can smell that gas, Damon already soaked the walls so the fire will completely engulf this entire room, so even if you get out of the ropes, you will never escape."  She then throws her head back and laughs,more like a witch's cackle.  I hate this she-wolf with all my being.  If I somehow survive this, I am personally killing her. 
   
    She he really does mean to kill me?  Then wha was all those signals meant for?  Maybe I imagined them?  Am I that desperate to live that I imagined that he said love or cried or winked?  I must be if he's already prepared for me to burn in this fire.  He clears his throat and I look up at him, desperation is in my eyes, but when I see him look at me with sadness, I know it's fake and I change to anger.  "Fine, set the damn fire already!  I don't want to be with a mate like you, I HATE YOU DAMON JACOBS!  I WILL ALWAYS HATE YOU!  I NEVER SHOULD HAVE COME BACK!"
   
    I see him flinch and look down at the floor then he looks up at me and I see a scowl and his eyes are full of determination.  Determination for what?  To make sure I'm nothing but ashes when all is said and done?  Fine, then let's do this.  I raise my head and then I raise my chin at him in a show of strength, meanwhile I am screaming inside.
    "Fuck you both.  I hope you end up in hell.  Light the damn fire, Damon.  Do it now."
   
    Damon take out a lighter and my eyes widen, he's really going to do it.  I close my eyes and raise my chin, but I can feel the tears running down my cheeks.  'I'm so sorry Claire.  I wish you had a different human, then you would be able to live.  I am so so sorry, Claire.  I love you.'
   
    'I love you too Levi, and it was a great honour to be your wolf.  I would never had wanted a different human than you.  Your soul will come back and have a different wolf, you won't remember me or this, or Damon.  And it is for the best.  Take care Levi, I will be with the Moon Goddess, she will reward me with an eternity of open fields full of flowers and other wolves to run with.  Be safe Levi, forever my human and my friend.'
   
    I hear Damon light the lighter, "I am sorry, Levi, I wish there was a different way.  Good-bye my love."
   
    Then screaming..
