Falling for His Human Mate

The revelation

Life seems to be a miracle when you are chosen by the most caring and loving human being. He seemed much intrigued in our relationship, it was truly an indication that he has never been in any relationship before. He would text me all day long to ask whether I’m fine and then send me goodnight kisses before sleep. Life could not be more perfect I guess. I was spending quality time with my parents too because my relationship with Mark wasn’t tensed or over-protective rather it was more of such sort of a relationship where one would feel calm, cared for, and free all the time. I wasn’t caged. Being caged has been the foremost fear of my life after getting into any relationship, I guess that was the reason I wasn’t able to get close to anyone before. But here everything happened by itself like I was not having control over the situation or even on myself. It just happened so perfectly that I could doubt my luck sometimes and be thankful at the same moment.

It was mid of March the moon was about to exhibit its brightness like no other day as it was going to be a full moon, Mark and I were sitting together, our hands clinging onto each other. The night was perfect; calm and gentle, he would see in my eyes and ask

“I want to tell you something Mariane or even I must say show you”

“You need to tell me, show me anything you want, I’m here” Mariane responded with a gentle smile

“Haven’t you wondered why I was all alone all the time, not talking to anyone, just being to myself, and then you came and I surrendered everything of myself to you?”

“Of course I, I have thought about it and I consider myself luckiest indeed” Mariane promptly replied

“My whole life, I have been protected not to get close to people, my family thought I would get hurt but I needed to find someone for me, just for me, who would attend and care for me like no one else and I did try my best to sense the right person and here I am with you” Mark smiled with a shiny glaze in his eyes

“I will be here no matter what” Mariane responded

“I love you, Mariane I love you so much and I never had the potential to accept this fact but I fell in love with you the moment I saw you, the moment you arrived here, I used to stalk you while you sat beside your window, and write, I was there, I was always there”

Those three words that came out of his mouth, they felt like I was drowning deep down into some ocean and nobody can save me now, I choose to get drowned into this ocean, I choose to be with him now and to be in his possession for the rest of my life.

“I don’t know how to respond to this but this is exactly how it should be done, I’m happy Mark, I’m happy for us”

“It’s about time, you need to see what it is all about, you need to trust me and assure yourself that whatever happens, I’ll never leave you, I promise and I want you to do the same for me, okay?”

My body couldn’t hold myself back and I was sure this was the right moment to sacrifice myself to him. He was continuously assuring me about a lot of things that I wasn’t even able to understand or pay attention to, I have fallen in love with him and this was my pensive moment, I couldn’t wait anymore. This was when I blocked him and the two oceans collided so hard that the whole earth seemed flooded. I was not me anymore and he was not him, the only “us” was there that was holding us together. Our bodies were locked and the souls within them were entangled. That’s how you feel when you collide with the chosen one. Suddenly I experienced a force that repelled me and pushed me away. I stood startled, looking right into his eyes, what was about to happen, why did he push me away, did I do something wrong? He smiled at me yet in grief

“It’s time” Mark uttered in a low tone

I was standing there looking at him wondering what he just said, what was about to happen?

The moon was just above us throwing its dazzling light upon us. Mark was standing four feet apart from me, he turned himself and in moments a harsh reality hit me so hard that I almost fainted. I could not gather myself to believe what I was watching. It was no coincidence, those green dazzling eyes looking at me through the forest on the first night of my arrival. It was no coincidence when I was saved by a ferocious white wolf by those humane monsters. It was no coincidence when I reached that spot and it was perfectly carved for me, those butterflies, everything it was planned, and it was him all along.

In a couple of moments, the man I loved turned into a big white wolf, Mark was a werewolf, and he was not a normal human being. My whole body was shivering and I could not breathe, my soul was departing and my heartbeat was too fast to shatter me in seconds. He turned back and looked at me, with tears strolling down his furry cheeks. It stood right there in a static position waiting for me to respond or to exhibit any shocking gesture or even a scream. But I was rendered a body without a soul. I said nothing, just tried to gather myself and ran down the forest as fast as I could. I was crying, running in a half-conscious state, holding myself up so that I could reach home without collapsing.

I reached home, knocked at the door, Papa opened the door, looked at me in a startled state, and started asking a lot of questions but I was not in a state of answering even a single one of them. I rushed to my room. Mama followed me and held me with a grip asking me where was I, what was I doing out at night.

“What didn’t you tell me?” I asked

“What dear, what didn’t I tell you?”

“Why didn’t you tell me mama what you were protecting me from?” I screamed in a shrieking voice

“I was about to honey, I’m sorry, did something caught you, are you okay to tell me, sweetie?” Mama asked in a shocking and grieved tone

“I’m fine, just leave me alone, I don’t want to talk about it, just go”

“Mariane, please”

“I said leave me alone”

“Okay, I’ll leave you to be, we will talk later honey, take some rest”

Mama left the room and closed the door. I couldn’t understand what I have been through. Everything seemed so perfect till that happened. Why he did this to me, why he chose me? Did I deserve this?

Fate always comes in unexpected ways. Life is never meant to be normal. What is next?
