I keep the shower running as I smoke. I just lay there in pain letting the medication make me drowsy. Soon black spots appeared in my vision and I gave in and let my body sleep.
————flashback ends———-
I jumped out of the vision in shock shaking. I can't believe what I just witnessed, my entire body felt repulsed at what had happened to her and what they did to her. I started to heave and I puked in the bin beside my couch unable to process the sounds or things around me. All I could think of was what she's been through.
Then I realised suddenly what about her. If I felt that, she did. I panicked looking for her face but her big beautiful teal eyes were looking at me sadly. Her hand was placed on my bare chest. Her lips were moving but I couldn't hear her.
I felt a sharp pain across my face waking me from my trance and suddenly all feeling and hearing came back.
"What the f**k gran how did I see that. Are you ok. I can't believe what they. I think I'm going to get sick agai—"
I barf up my breakfast but when I'm done fay looks worried and sad. I could feel the fear she felt. She thinks I was going to leave her. I pull her into my chest and I say the only thing I can think of saying at this moment.
"I love you so much fay fay. I will kill them if anyone tries to hurt you again. I love you fay fay"
She sighs in relief and hugs me back but says nothing. Gran has tears running down her cheek too.
"I have no words to express how I feel right now. How you survived what you did. Your incredible. You will be an amazing Luna. I will come back tomorrow and heal you more but we all need rest. I didn't realise just how bad your life has been"
"Thank you gran"
She whispers to her. Grans face lights up and she pounces and pulls her into a hug.
"I know I've just met you but I already love you and please never forget that. Not only will he kill for you but so will I and the 15000 other wolves outside those doors. We also have 2 Other packs and they will kill for you too, so never and I mean never forget that"
Fay breaks down and sobs.
"Thank you so much"
Gran held her for a while then stood up.
"Come I think we all need a smoke after that, maybe even a tequila"
I chuckled at my alcoholic gran. Her and mum and my aunts are always getting in trouble together. I hope one day fay feels safe enough to get in trouble with them too. Fay chuckles but wraps her body around mine. I carry her outside and we sit on the ground and smoke. Gran leaves us be and I push fays thick strawberry hair from her face.
"Does it still hurt?"
Tears continued to stream down my face and I couldn't seem to stop them.
"Not really. I think I might have nerve damage because I don't feel much"
I cry harder. I rest my head on her chest and I cry like a baby. She holds me. Her. After what she's been through she holds me. Her strength amazed me.
"It's ok you don't need to be sad"
"I'm not sad, fay. I'm completely and utterly disgusted, I'm angry. I'm f*****g pissed but not sad. Everything they did to you I will do to them twice. Everything they put you through I will put them through twice. I will kill them and bring them back to life just to kill them again. I will do that until they scream for death. And even then I won't grant it. I will never let them hurt you or any other person again. I'm not sad fay I'm so completely and utterly in love with you and you are MINE and NOBODY gets to touch what is mine or do to you what they done without feeling the full consequences of my wrath"
She had tears in her eyes now. She looked at me like she was about to break. Her hands touched my face and I closed my eyes and moaned. I moaned as the sparks tingled all around my face and down my chest.
As I opened my eyes I met her amazing teal ones, our face was only an inch apart. I looked at her face. Each feature I committed to my memory. Her amazing strawberry hair fell over her shoulder messy. Her apple pie scent filled my lungs and I prayed that she would close the gap. I wanted her so badly and I knew she was afraid but I wasn't. I loved her.
But without another word she pushed forward and kissed me. Her soft lips met mine and I groaned as she moaned. I ran my tongue gently over her bottom lip and she opened it. Giving me access to her mouth and oh how she tasted.
She tasted off fresh apple pie and cinnamon. Her tongue fought me for dominance but she gave it up. I felt her body relax against mine and I wrapped my hands around her head and pulled her tighter. She came willingly and soon my hands were tangled in her mess of red hair and I loved it. I loved how her tongue invaded my mouth and how we moved together perfectly, resulting in the most amazing kiss.
This was my first kiss. This kiss is the one I've been waiting for my entire life. This love is like no other and anything or anyone before now wouldn't matter. Not anymore. All that matters is her and her happiness and she is mine and I am hers. She deepened the kiss and pushed her body against mine. I let my hand fall and lift her under her bum to support her weight. She moaned as my entire body erupted in goosebumps. My skin felt like it moved under her touch and it felt so good. I cried out as she pulled away and did the same. She was looking at her arms and hands wide eyed. Sat on the palm of her hand was the Ailm mark.
"Your not only my mate Your my Ailm fated. These marks appear to prove it. We are 2 half's of 1 whole. That's why you could trust me because I am apart of you"
I lifted her hands and kissed them then I placed her palm against mine.
"But how- I don't understand how"
"Nobody really does but now you really are mine forever as I am yours"
She grinned at me then lifted the smokes and stuffed one in my mouth then took another for herself.
"So much information, I need to smoke and process it"
I chuckled and lit both of them.
"So even though I'm scared and damaged you want me?"
I frown and pull her face closer to mine.
"I love you, scars and all. In Fact they are proof of what you survived. If I had a scar down my face would it matter to you?"
"No"
"See. Scars and all, your perfect and you're made just for me."
She kisses me again. This time harder but I moan and pull her body closer. She pulled back for air.
"I want you to mark me. I want to become like you"
I stop and pull back slightly
"If it's what you really want then yes I can do it. I just need to talk with my other gran and see how that process will work now that you have the Ailm marks"
"Can you do it now? I want to change so I can kill them all"
She had a look of pure determination in her eyes and I loved it, it looked like someone lit a fire inside her and she was finally awake. She could see how I see her. She could see how much I loved her and how damn beautiful she really is. I hope how I saw her was clear through our bond.
I pull out my phone and ring grandma Caron.
"Hello?"
"Gran. Can you come to the packhouse as soon as you can please?"
"Of Course I'll be right there"

Fays POV
as his lips touched mine all felt right in the world. Everything clicked into place. I could feel his emotions and I could feel how much he needed me. He needed me just like I needed him.
He had seen the thing that I feared most. He screamed with me and went through it with me and he still wanted me. He still wanted to be mine.
I'm not sure how I got here but nothing before this moment mattered anymore. It might be an invisible bond but it's a bond that will save me. It's a bond that will make me his and him mine.
All that happened to me lead me to this moment and I can't wish it didn't happen. I wish it never happened but It did and it brought me to this moment.
It might be a while before I can give him all of me but I can give him enough. I don't know why I can trust him. I don't know how I know this is forever. He talked about it but being human is different but if I can hang onto this bond, if I can hang onto this feeling and forget the rest. Move on and never think of it again then that's what I'm going to do.
If I didn't have him I don't think I would live. I don't think I could survive. He is mine and I am his and I love it.
He carried me to the office again and set me on the couch. He handed me a laptop and he sat at the desk.
"Look up dream locations. Places you've only ever dreamed of. A bucket list of experiences. Write them all down while I do paperwork"
I grinned. Now this is something I can definitely do. Is it weird that I want to camp in the rainforest and sleep under the northern lights? A knock at the door pulled me from my trance, but Arden came to my side and pulled me on his knee before he told them to enter.
I could feel that he trusted these people so I tried to calm my beating heart a little. I leaned against his chest as they entered and I waved, not having the confidence to talk just yet.
"Hey gran. This is my mate and my fated Fay"
"Fay this is our gran and grandpa and they are yours now to"
I studied them and realised they were human but how?
"You're human too?"
I tried to make my voice stronger than it was but it's difficult when you feel like pins of acid are keeping your throat closed tightly.
"Yes. We'll kind of. We are witches. But yes we are mostly human? I see your marks have appeared? That was fast?"
She sat down beside us carefully, she looked a little puzzled and so did her husband but she shook the thought off.
"What is it you wanted? Marking business I'm guessing?"
Arden sighed and nodded
"Yes. We both want to mark her but now that the fated marks are there I'm confused as to how it works?"
"Well she's human so it will be as simple as marking her and she will transition into your equal half. She will become your other half in all senses of the word. Your equal. She will be wolf, hound and banshee just like you"
I gasped surprised by this revaluation.
"There is something else to? The marks have appeared so most likely the transition will happen if you want it or not. I think it would be best to mark her straight away. It will be more painful if she goes through that without your mark and support"
I finally find my voice
"Hang on, I would change anyway? How is that possible?"
"Honestly the Ailm fated is a relatively new thing for us. But over the years we have studied it but one thing is for sure that once those marks appear you become equals. Even if you're not bitten. Those marks will never leave and you are linked forever. If you die he dies. And vice versa."
I look at him. He was right, I'm literally the only thing in the world that can hurt him. He can't die but if I do he dies too. Mind blowing is a relative term for what I'm feeling right now. Panic fills me up and eats at my stomach painfully, We need to do this soon. I can't be the reason he dies and I'm a clumsy kind of person. What if I go to smoke at night and fall off the darn roof? Hell I could choke on a Brussel sprout and kill him.
I jump up in his arms and pull my hair away from my neck.
"Do it, do it now. I don't want to choke on a nut and die then kill you. Stupid humanity. Anything could kill me. Damn I could take an infection and kill you. Nope. Nope not happening. Do it. Do it right now"

Ardens POV
I can't help but laugh loudly but she doesn't find it funny. She just bared her neck to me.
"Fay I'm not marking you right this second"
"Arden you are marking me right now damn it! You carry me everywhere so you really have not seen just how clumsy I am. Jez a spider bite could kill me and now you so your doing it right this second"
"We will leave you both to it"
Gran says getting up and chuckling with granddad. I face palm and let the palm of my hand slide down my face.
"Fay you won't die I promise. I'm not doing it until you are ready"
She growls at me and my eyes widen in shock
"Did you just growl at me?"
"Yes I did. Bás mark me please"
Bás
Oh just do it already. She wants it and look at her face. who can say no to that face
Me
Bás you are not marking her
"Do not pull the bás card on me fay"
I say defiantly. She gives me puppy dog eyes and pouts
"Please Bás please"
Bás pushes forward and shoves me back,
"Mate"
I mentally facepalm when he kisses her cheek and she giggles only giving him more ammunition. He kisses down her neck and sucks on it. She moans and I feel jealous so I push bás back and I kiss down her throat
"Are you sure"
I whisper. She moans
"Yess"
I suck on the skin and hold onto her body tight. My canines protrude and I run them along her collar bone then I do it before I change my mind. She whimpers as my teeth effortlessly glide through her skin and muscle hitting her bone. I pull back and lick the mark to seal it. I can smell her arousal and I groan as she kisses me. She takes control and I let her, afraid of her arousal. Afraid of pushing her too far. She tangles her hand in my thick hair and pulls me impossibly close. I run my fingers up her back and kiss her back.
Her arousal perfumes the room making both myself and bás crazy but I couldn't react to it. Not even when she started to kiss down my neck. I groan as my d**k twitches as she sucks on my skin.
