Did you know the feeling when a bomb was ticking just above your head, and you silently counted every tick it sounded? And, as ticks went by, you became more aware of your situation, but you just could not do anything?
Well, it was called doomed.
My heart constricted in my chest as if it suddenly lost the power to pump life throughout every cell of my body. I was like a cold, stiff board made of iron under his warm hug, refusing to have a meltdown with his body. My breath came out as pants, caressing the cloth on his shoulder that I failed to see in this darkness. I had a strong feeling that it was his favorite white tee shirt that had a black heart emoji on it. I knew it because my nose was always stabbed by his shoulder blade whenever he hugged me wearing that shirt.
"Holy... Moon... Goddess..." Selena's quivering voice woke me from my deep slumber under the lull of my conscience. "Is this even real? Are we crazy right now?"
His signature smell that I could notice even from far away... The warmth on my skin that I could feel even in the most extreme weather ever happening here... The erratic thunder inside my chest that always pump adrenaline throughout my body...
The feeling was real.
This is real. I can feel it.
"How can we be so sure that he is not sticking out his tongue or rolling his eyes at our silliness right now?" Selena sounded so skeptical about this whole be-my-mate-again thing.
Why do you seem to hate the idea of us being together again? I thought since you are the wolf side, you are more eager to be with your mate again?
"Yeah, I'm happy he repents on his mistake. But, it means nothing if you're not on the same page as I am." Pregnant silence immediately filled my mind once she answered my question as if she was drowning in her thought as I was. "We are one, remember? I don't want things that may have hurt you."
Her thoughtfulness touched me. Here I was, contemplating so hard about what to do under his magical spell that would save me from heartbreak.
Selena thought about her decision and the impact on me.
What's your little heart telling you?
"To accept him back. To give him a chance to repair what he has broken." She sighed. "To give your soul a chance to happiness. A real happiness, not just reflected by your fake smile, but your inside as well. Who knows he still is your happiness—and will be your only happiness—just like what you guys have in the past."
The corners of my mouth immediately curled up into a smile as my mind shamelessly showed me some pretty experience we had in the past. But- But, you and Zale?
"Oh, we'll be more than fine." She chuckled softly. "I'm also ready to give this idiot wolf a chance." I could suddenly see this wolfish grin, staring at me.
