Chapter 92: You Were Born For Me

Chapter 92: You Were Born For Me

To the Pixies my flesh was a utopia essence for them and they derived pleasure from taking it... I could still remember how Cleo basked in joy, and how hungry they were. The mere thought of it caused a chill to run through me.

William’s sudden tightened hands around my waist snapped me back to reality.

"You’re safe here," William said as if sensing my discomfort, reassuring me with a look in his eyes. "No one will touch you as long as I’m here"

I knew that... I knew William would protect me no matter what, if it wasn’t for him I would be dead.

He cares for me

I didn’t need him to show emotions just to know that... his actions say it all that, the way he held me last night in the bath, tightly like if he lets go I could disappear, he was angry and hurt for my sake too. I wrapped my arms around his neck leaning close to him, our faces inches apart.

I care for him too

He’s the first person to ever treat me like a person of worth, he gave me a purpose in life and I would forever be grateful for it... he’s my benefactor and someone important to me, someone I truly care about. I always want to stay by his side.

But... with the actions of the Pixies does this mean even venturing into the forest was a risk for me? Would I never experience nature again? I didn’t even need to ask because I knew William would never allow me to go outside again.

The pixies not only caused me harm but ruined the possibility of me ever grasping nature, something I truly loved. My heart suddenly felt heavy and I felt the need to cry.

If only I wasn’t a Fairy...

I buried my head in his neck, not wanting him to see me cry so I only did so silently, the tears falling endlessly and wetting his skin.

William said nothing and I was thankful for that for I didn’t want to talk right now, there was no need to... it just hurts so much.

"I will never get to go outside anymore"

I didn’t mean to say that out loud but I did and my chest squeezed tightly in pain. I crammed my eyes shut and the silent tears fell more. I felt William move but I was too busy crying to register anything not until I felt the strong wind against my face. And my feet suddenly found the grass.

I opened my eyes and met with a leveled view of the forest, and I wheezed, it looked like we were at the top of a mountain all of a sudden, how did he move so fast? I didn’t even feel it.

I was too caught up in the view to even think about the latter, allowing my eyes to drown in the view I might not say again.

The forest was really big and it reached over for miles but something caught my attention... It was a giant tree in the distance, so far that the clouds covered it, I felt an unusual aura coming from it, one that captivated me.

"You’re not a prisoner Ava" William began behind me, his hand still tightly on my waist. "This world doesn’t deserve you... it never did"

"I do not wish to be a fairy" My fist clenched my skirt tightly. "If only I wasn’t" I murmured. "If I wasn’t born this way..."

If only I wasn’t... if only my worth wasn’t something to bask joy in.

William’s hand moved to the back of my neck so that I turned to him, I looked up to his crystal green orbs.

"You’re my fairy"

My lips parted at his words.

"And your worth belongs to me and no one else"

The same words he said to me the moment I discovered what my nature was... but this time he wasn’t saying it on a whim... he said it with an emotion that sparkled in his eyes, one I couldn’t make sense of.

And funny it was identical to mine... He looked at me like I was the center of the universe.

He cupped my cheeks and leaned down to me and I closed my eyes as his lips brushed against mine softly.

My back slammed against the bark of a tree and he pulled away holding my chin up so that my eyes were focused on his.

"If you do not wish to be a fairy, Then be MY fairy... your entire worth will be mine, your tears, smile, hope, desires, your entirety will be mine... even I don’t deserve you... but I WILL deserve you, every inch of you for eternity"

My hand subconsciously tightened on his shirt as I gaze upon him with a loss of words, my lips parted completely speechless... What could I possibly say? My brain went numb and all that was keeping me awake were his words and the tugging feeling in my chest not by pain but by unexplainable warmth.

"You were born for me Ava... I didn’t just stumble upon the mortal realm for just any fairy, I was searching for you, for centuries"

A tear slid down my cheeks, and he brushed it off with his thumb, gently stroking my cheek.

And here I stood gazing upon the man who just declared something that caused my brain to go numb. He has searched for me for centuries, and although I do not know what he meant by that, I understand something such as that.

This feeling...

It isn’t just an attraction or the need to ease one’s sexual desire, this unexplainable feeling that has slowly crept into my heart and built, and grown, it was a whole different sensation altogether.

Staring at the eyes that only saw me and no one else, one who would go to any lengths for me and be hurt for my sake. The one that makes me feel like I have gained the world in the palm of my hand and ceased my world too.

I have fallen in love with William Basker Darkmore.
