You're mine

Chapter 27

Griffin's PoV
I knew this day will come .
I have to make a decision
It's been a while since my beautiful mate saved my life. Why she did it? Why she just couldn't let me die.

I have been barely living.
The mate bond is weakening. Every day I feel like I'm loosing a part of her.
I have to tell doctors tomorrow morning my answer. They think it's the best to take Lia off the life support. Just to let her go. I ... I don't know if I can. I'm being selfish now but I don't know if I can do it. To make this decision.

I lay I'm my bed that has been move to her hospital room. I close my eyes. Bright light filling up my head. I feel warm. I feel safe.

"My child" a soft voice whispers.
" I'm happy to see you again Griffin, you've grown so much. Just look at you! Such a handsome young alpha. " she added.
"Moon goddess " I answer.
"I'm sorry my child that we meet in this circumstances. I know you have a decision to make and I know you don't want to do it. "
She added.
I didn't say much just nodded at her words.
"It's ok to be scared. Sometimes you have to trust your instincts, and hearts.
What those are telling you?" She asked.
" I miss her. A lot.. she was the best thing ever happened to me. I'm angry because she save me and I feel guilty because she is the way she is. "
I answered truthfully.

"She's not dead my child."

"I know Ma'am. I'm looking at her everyday and I'm asking myself how long I can hold it. How long she would want me to wait.
And I don't know " I said.

"She is my everything. The only thing worth living for. " I add.

"You are also my everything " a small voice spoken behind my back. I turned around so fast that I nearly loose my balance.

"Lia!" My voice chokes in my throat.
I grab her and brought her closer hugging her tightly.
"I love you so much, I'm so sorry, so sorry that I casused you a pain" I say kissing her lips.
"Griffin look at me" she says softly
"It wasn't your fault. I do not regret it. I would do it again. You are alpha king you need to live to support your people. Our people. " she said , her right hand gently stroking the side of my face..
"I cannot let you go" I say.
"Trust me Griffin, trust me"
That was her last words spoken to me.
Moon goddess looked at me. Her eyes full of sorrow and something that I did not fully recognised. Empathy?

My heart filled pain. Fear. I cannot do it.
I know I cannot.
I give a nod and everything around me disappears.

My wolf is grieving. He feels a loss of his one and only. He's quiet. So quiet.
We both know what needs to be done.

I feel like stuck in this dark moment forever, before I decide to go back and open my eyes towards light.

I get up.
Slowly walking towards the only one person I will ever love.
I gently grab her hand and look at her beautiful face. Her long lashes. Her cheek bones more visible now. I swallow. We stay like that for a while.
I don't notice when people gather next to me
I don't feel my betas hand on my shoulder
I don't see their tears as my vision is filled with my mate. Our last moments together.

This is it.
THIS IS THE END

I gave a quick nod towards the doctor, who's standing now next to me.
My eyes still stuck on my mate

"Trust me Griffin" her last words to me ringing in my head.

I swallow another bail in my throat.

Her mask is taken away

I kiss her knuckles
Touch her face
My finger tracing her lips

Machine stops
No sound around us
It's so quiet
I take a breath
Nearly forgot I have to do it
A whisper escapes my lips
"I need a moment"

No body says anything
I feel all my family leaving
One by one
Leaving me alone
Last one to leave is my beta
Like a brother to me
Squeezes my shoulder
No words are shared between us and yet
I can sense his wolfs sadness
I can smell his tears in the air
I know he feels my emotions and hears my heart
Slowly getting weaker

I'm alone
Surrounded by suffocating lack of the sound .
No beeping
No pumping

The only machine my ears can hear now is Lia's hear monitor
Her heart is still working
It takes time with werewolves
Longer
Much longer then with humans
To let go

I lean towards her
My lips connecting with hers
I can feel her slow breath on my face
Her warmth

"I love you so f*cking much. I don't know how to live without you.. but I cannot be selfish so I am letting you go. I am letting go of our bond that holds you here. I ... "

I am interrupted by one still sound of her heart.
My eyes filled with tears
I kiss her head, her lips, her hand.
My head bowing towards my queen.

I kneel down next to her
All my energy going away
I feel empty

A howl in my head
My wolfs last goodbye

....
