Love and Hunt

Chapter Twenty-Eight

I had been with this hot chocolate when I was still in this living room. I kept looking out of the window when nothing was seen by my eyes. That day had been left behind. Since that day, I still haven't found one of Jacob's witches coming into this house. And I didn't get anything about the attack by Jacob's witches from Jane yet. I didn't know what they were trying to do or planning. But, I was still here with the quietness that I had expected before I got into the hunt. Then, I put down the cup of hot chocolate on the square table in front of me. I got up from this couch and made for the window. And I remembered that my father was still on his decision about the wedding party of me and Will. Aaron had come back into this countryside. The city was safe for a while. I wasn't sure if his last words were wrong. And I didn't know what they would do next after the death of Jacob as they had lost the witch giving them the orders. I deeply expected this situation. I deeply expected that those witches wouldn't do the hunt for those humans again. I wanted a life that was not a threat to us and them.

I was standing in this white gown. I was holding this flower bouquet. And I kept staring at the man who had been waiting for me over there. And I found my father standing behind the guy that I had wanted to stay with me in my life. I took a step, then the next step, and those steps further to get closer to the man who also loved and wanted me for his life. I couldn't hide the happy smile on my face when I could see the happiness on their faces. When I almost reach and stand in front of Will. Amir and his brother, Adam came down with their Pegasuses. I found Amir's bow in his hand as I knew that my father had asked them to watch the surroundings for Jacob's witch. His spell had created an air arrow that could be turned into a flaming arrow when it was shot and exploded into an air explosion when it hit the target. And Adam was a good fighter with the sword from his spell. I looked away from them and kept walking to get next to Will. I felt this emotion was getting stronger when my feet were going to stop walking. I almost cried, but I didn't want to mess up the look of this beautiful day. I would be his wife; he would be my husband. I could feel the anxiety when I knew that my hair had been in a bun so well. And Grace had helped me with the makeup over my face.

I was looking at him with a smile that I couldn't lose over my face. I had belonged to you. My love was for you. I didn't want to leave you. I hoped you could stay with me forever. This was our promise. This was our moment to keep our love forever. With the happy life that we wanted along with those humans, I hoped this marriage would not become the last for the smiles that we had, the happiness that we wanted, and the life that was safe for us.

"I love you, Anna," Will said. "...for better, for worse, for richer and for poorer."
