He slowly leaned down and bit my lip, "I own you."My eyes watered as I closed them before shaking my head, "No! You don't."He chuckled and gripped my elbow firmly, " Wanna bet mate mine? I assure you, I am ready to go for all or nothing" His tone was sinister like he knew something like he's sure I am going to lose.I wrenched my hand out of his grip and turned my back on him, " Leave me alone Aaron." I felt his comforting warmth on my back when he clutched my lower abdomen in his grip, " Never! You know that."Hearing his claim a tear escaped my eye, I wanted to turn and hug him, I wanted to forget everything but I couldn't, " You betrayed me, you finished this. Now don't try to claim something you abandoned."He chuckled and turned me forcefully, we were face to face with our fronts pressing together. Before I could turn my face, He gripped my jaw forcefully, " I didn't end anything but if you are so hell-bent on pushing me then go on, try it and see the destruction your stupid stubborn causes because Cynthia I am not going away.""

As soon as I responded he pulled away, " Say you are mine!"I shook my head, " I am scared. I can't do this anymore."My mate who was once my everything just growled, " You don't get to decide baby, not anymore."

Espesyal daw ang araw ng kasal dahil dito nagsisimula ang isang kwento ng walang hanggang pagmamahalan. Pero sa akin, dito natapos ang lahat. Ang araw na pinangarap kong maging pinakamasaya, naging araw ng pinakamalalim kong sugat. Isang lihim ang sumira sa lahat—ang taong dapat kong makasama habangbuhay, may ibang pinili. Hindi ko na nakita ang altar. Hindi ko na narinig ang 'oo.' Ang tanging narinig ko lang ay ang pagkabasag ng pangarap ko. At sa araw na iyon, natutunan kong ang pagmamahal ay hindi laging sapat para tapusin ang isang kwento.
