Chapter 86 - Worth It.
Chapter 86 - Worth It.
Her eyes watched everything happen. Ashlynn just 'tore' someone apart, like literally into two and she had down so by shifting into something hideous, monstrous, for Àdeline. Her brain was processing Everything but at the end of it, she was coming up blank. She was numb.
Javier; the working man of the family, preferably at a good spot since their house was huge. If he was a CEO, she won't be surprised.
??Cassandra was a woman a owned a flower shop. She loved those.
Alexander; no idea what he was doing and then came Xavier; her boyfriend, who was studying with her, in the same school and even in the same class.
Were all werewolves or. . . Lycans?
Her eyes didn't leave the sight of the clearing. She kept her eyes trained there as the bones once again moved and came to a naked Ashlynn. A very naked one, stark naked. Her eyes witnessed it. She wanted to refuse it but it happened in front of her eyes. She saw it, people turning into animals.
She had shifted back. From a monster to the human that Adeline was used to seeing daily.
Just like that.
"What the fuck?" She spat and turned to him in disbelief. "What the fuck was that?!" She hissed. How could it be true? Her eyes refused to believe what she had seen because of none of those made sense in the slightest.
How the hell was it possible that one human could transform into another bigger and scarier monster and then transfer back as if it was just according to a snap of her fingers. How did the body do it?
How?!
Her heart was pounding. She refused to believe it. She could hear it thudding in her ears.
She turned to look at the clearing once more to see if it was real or not. People were collectively shifting now and it scared her even more. It only proved the reality is that there was someone else existing in this world other than human beings. This was unrealistic.
"Wha. . . ." Her eyes were glued to the sight. They were all shifting?! Now she had to believe it. It was true.
"Yeah," Noah commented. "The two-legged ones, like I said are Lycans. Wolves, as you know are sharp in smelling and sight but Lycans are way better. Those can hear what's going on thin e entire school. The entire town. They are much better." He shrugged but she didn't turn around to see it.
"I hope you believe it now. It's happening in front of you." He pointed out.
She nodded with her mouth slightly ajar. How was it possible?
God . . . made them?
What in the world was happening in the world?
Her breathing has picked up as she thought about it. An invasion? What was going on? We're they all going to kill the humans? Her too? If they were so powerful then how was it that they were going to let humans live and dictate them or hunt them into extinction? Adeline remembered that her friends had said the wolves were hunted down until only a mere handful were left. They had retreated into the forest and here, she had found out that we're in an army that could easily overpower them and kill them all.
For was she going to be taken as a pet?
A human pet, like they had dogs and cats. Shit, she had to tell someone. The authorities had to know. She had to tell someone.
Noah watched from inches away from her. She was having a breakdown knowing that there was someone else living in the same town as she was and were more dangerous than anything she had ever seen. He loved it all. It was a full moon night and he knew that the wolves would shift and celebrate, which was perfect for the little human to see.
The only thing that he did not anticipate was Xavier's brother; Alexander coming in and having his mate shifting and killing someone in this process.
That had been epic. It had turned the whole tables in his favour. Because Adeline had recognised the couple because of which she had believed what was in front of her.
"Adeline?" Noah softly called and she turned slightly to look at him. "Are you ok? You look like you're having a panic attack."
Was she? She probably was.
"I-I . . Don't know. . . " She whispered and hot tears came to her eyes. "what's happening?" Everything felt so confusing. How could she expect a different reality?
He shrugged. "I had the same reaction too." He revealed as if all of it was normal.
He once again pointed to the clearing. "No one knows how long they have existed for. Maybe, it was even before us or just mutation. But they are there. It's a reality now."
It was. The sight in front of her proved it, even after her pinching herself, it did not go away.
"I want to go home." She stood up on her shaking legs and walked to the slightly visible light from the branches and the leaves.
"You know, the mate bond is really important to them." That caught her attention immediately.
That was a new thing she heard and once again she stood as tall as she was and turned around asking him, "What?"
He nodded. "They don't have girlfriends and boyfriends as we do. They do wife and husband and that is for their entire life so much so that if one dies The other soon follows."
"What?" Was he telling her that there were so good of soul mates is one died in the other did too? Was that not sad?
"Like I told you that they do husband and wife for life and not girlfriend and boyfriend. Why do you think that Xavier is with you?"
"No . . " She muttered. She was not going to be a part of this freak show. She wanted to be as far as she could be from it all.
"Yes," he nodded his head. "You are his mate as he is yours and the world would have it you two have already mated."
"Mated?" She spat. "What the hell are you talking about?"
He hesitated a bed and she saw that.
"What? just say it!" She spat. The night had been enough.
"You had sex with him! You are mated. The only thing now that is left is the marking."
What the hell was he talking about? "Can you stop talking to me in riddles and as if I know everything? I know nothing and kindly walk me through it!"
"Woah!" He stepped back. "Okay, now to put it easily, wolves and lycans mate for life. When they find their mates they immediate mate and mark each other that is biting them in between the shoulder and the neck linking their souls together forever and then that very night they have. . Sex with each other, sealing the bond forever." He whispered the information and watched as her mind churned at the information.
"What?" She whispered. She did have sex with him. She had sex with him this very morning and day. She was obsessed with having sex with him.
She still found it hard to believe.
"Yeah, when you are mated to someone of the supernatural kind you notice to have the same changes in your body. Human mate does not change into the creature as they are not built for it naturally, Instead, their DNA or whatever it is, adapts to theirs. You become slightly sharper and healthier." She looked at him as he continued, "Do you notice yourself to heal quickly or to hear better and see things in the dark and have a good vision? That is all that wolves mates can easily do. These changes are coming in you too."
She could see in the dark better. Adaline did not need to switch on the lights she could work just fine in the dark while making her midnight sandwiches. For the past week that she had been making them, she had worked in the dark and everything was clear to her.
Another thing that she had noticed was they have told her that her fractures would take months to heal but in the last few weeks, the doctors noticed that they had been healed halfway through in five weeks so that healing which was said to be done in five to six months was done in five merely five weeks. This was miraculous, even the doctor's expressions said so.
Even if she did not want to believe the reality all the evidence were pointing in one direction. The direction that was very hard to believe in, almost impossible. Her head pained and she gripped it as her face twisted into an ugly expression of pain.
Noah tsked as he saw her fall to the ground. Now he had to pick her up and place her in her bedroom.
But oh, it was all worth it. The drama was at its finest.
