Alastors Pov

As Fia's wounds healed, I held her close, my mind racing with thoughts of protection and vengeance. The rival predator would pay for harming my love.

"Alafia, tell me what happened," I whispered, my voice gentle but urgent.

She recounted the events, her voice trembling. I listened intently, my anger growing with each word.

"I'll take care of this," I promised, my voice low and menacing. "No one harms you and lives."

Fia nodded, her eyes locked on mine.

"I know, Alastor. I trust you."

With a swift gesture, I teleported us to the radio station parking lot, where her truck waited. She gasped, surprised by the sudden movement.

"Alastor, you're getting stronger," she said, her eyes shining with admiration.

I smiled, helping her into the passenger seat.

"I have my motivations."

I slid into the driver's seat, starting the engine. As we drove through the night, Alafia leaned against me, her hand on my thigh.

"Thank you, Alastor," she whispered. "For everything."

I covered her hand with mine, my heart swelling with love.

"Always, Alafia. Forever."

We arrived at her house, bathed in the soft glow of porch lights. I walked her to the door, reluctant to let her go.

"Rest, my love," I whispered, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "I'll be watching over you."

Fia smiled, her eyes sparkling.

"I know you will."

With a gentle kiss, I bid her goodnight, leaving her safe and sound in my care.
