Gulf's POV
"Mew. Have you ever heard of the story of the Moon and the Star?" I asked him as we sat on top of a mountain, gazing up at the sky.
"No, i've never heard of it. Can you tell me?" I glance at him for a moment and smiled gently. I roam my eyes to his clothes, we're both wearing the same thing. White shirt and white pants. No shoes.
He still looks stunning with such simple clothes especially underneath the moonlight. As always.
I shook my head fondly and turn my attention back up and watch how million of stars glimmers into the night sky. The Moon was full, glowing so bright, happy that it can show its own beauty to billions of people.
"When the Moon and Sun separated. The Moon was devastated and he mourns for the light to come back to him. He wasn't used with the dark. He wasn't used being alone. On the other side, the Sun glowed happily, the sun was accompanied by the clouds, the birds, the people. But, the Moon had no one. People were long gone when the night comes. Birds were asleep. The Clouds slowly disappearing..." i took a deep breath and leaned closer to Mew for comfort. He puts his arm around my shoulder as i placed my head on his chest.
"...The Moon prayed, begged, for someone to be with him as the night comes. But, his prayers weren't answered. Until, one night. As the Moon cries, he promises himself that it will be the last time that he'll cry. A lot of tears were falling from his eyes. He let himself cry before he lets go of all the feelings he's been carrying." Mew, sensing my bitter scent, moved his hands up and caress two small red dots on the side of my neck. I inhale, and his calming pheromones put me at ease.
"That night, as the last of his tears fall. Something glitters in front of him. It lights up in the dark beautifully. When the Moon asked her who the star was and where it came from. The star answered, "I'm a Star. I came here because you asked. I came here to give you my light." And the Moon was so happy. For the first time, he got someone to spend the rest of the night with." I smiled widely as Mew took my fingers and intertwine it with his own. I squeeze his hand and nuzzle my face closer to his neck. Inhaling his scent.
"The Star fell in love first. The star rescued him and saved him. Times where he was vulnerable and had nothing. The star was there for him. The star loved him when the Moon thought no one will. Seeing that, the Moon lets himself fall. For the second and last time. As they fall in love, one Star appears from the sky." I played with his finger and touch the silver band attached to his fourth finger, "It is said, that as more stars appears, it means that they continue to love each other more and more every night....the End."
I heard Mew clapped and i giggle. We've alwas heard about the story of the Moon and Sun, but what about the story of the Moon and Stars right?
Their story is one of my favorite.
"There are billions of stars in the sky. Wow. Their love must be endless and strong. I'm sure they're happy because a lot of people could witness their love for each other." I watch in awe as he gazes back up, his eyes reflecting the light coming from the Moon and Stars.
I could see the whole galaxy in those eyes.
It's so beautiful.
I'm so glad that he's with me. That he chose to fight for me every single day. That he didn't gave up on me. My mate. My one and only. My everything.
"Gulf?" He asked softly, never taking his eyes away from the sky.
I hum in reply.
"No matter how many Stars are there. My love for you will never fade. Please, remember that." My eyes slowly turns to blue as i look at him with love and fondness.
Yellow and Blue meets with their hearts beating as one.
I blink away the tears and bumps my nose to his gently.
"I love you too. Always have." I closed my eyes as he leans forward to kissed me on the forehead.
"Always will."
I gasped loudly as i woke up from my sleep. W-what was that?
I glanced around and noticed that i wasn't wearing any shirt, just my black chino pants and that my upper body is drenched with sweat.
I sat up, slowly. My gaze shifting everywhere. There were clothes scattered all over the floor, my vase broken and its pieces lying everywhere on the ground, some of my pillows have fallen off of the bed—my room is a disaster.
What the hell is happening to me? Why can't i remember what had happened these past few days?
I leaned back onto the headboard and closed my eyes. My heart is beating so fast. Why am i going like this?
I feel so uneasy all of a sudden.
I'm feeling so different.
Mew. Mew. Gulf, where is he?
My eyes widened automatically.
Mew. Alpha.
I whimpered as i look around frantically. Where is he? Why isn't he here? I thought—i thought he would be here with me.
I gripped the sheets tighter to my body feeling so empty and lost for a moment.
"Mew! Mew!" I called helplessly. But, when no one answers, i wailed and started to panic. No. No. Where is he?
I slowly climbed off the bed with the sheets still covering my body.
"M-Mew?" I dragged myself weakly towards the door.
I don't understand. Why do i suddenly need him? Why is my wolf calling for him? I feel so weak.
Like all i've been wanting is to feel his body close to me and scent him.
But, once i started to reach for the doorknob. There was a knock.
MEW! Is—is it him?
I grinned widely and I had to pinch myself to contain the squeal trying to escape. Is it really him?
I turned the knob open with my left hand and was immediately greeted by a sweet, sweet scent.
My smile immediately turned into a frown. Primrose.
"Baby!" I stumble backwards completely letting go of the blanket when a pair of soft arms wrapped around my waist.
I stood still, not knowing what to do. There were three guards and two more maids standing outside the door holding trays containing various of food.
My gaze shifted away from them when she tightened her grip around my waist and then, she buries her face in my neck. She's going to scent me.
I almost screamed in realization. She can't.
No! No! Not her. I don't want her!
When her scent directly hits my nose, i pushed her away.
"N-no. Not you. W-why is it you? Where—where is he?" I mumble as i can feel my wolf starting to panic.
Gulf. I need Mew. Now. Please. We need him. Please.
Lily stared at me with widened eyes. She tried to step closer but i shook my head indicating that if she moves closer, i might hurt her. I don't want her scent. It's not what i want.
I don't know what is happening to me. I can't even control myself.
But all i want is him. All of him.
"B-baby? Your—your eyes are blue. Calm down, Gulf, please. Let me help you, okay?" She was about to grab my arm when I growled at her. Don't even try to come any closer.
She jumped back, afraid and a hint of hurt flashed on her eyes. The guards immediately came forward trying to protect her behind their backs.
"No! I don't want you! I want him! Where is he?! I need him!" I tried to push the guards away to let me out but they wouldn't budge. No. Please. I just want to see him.
"No! No, please. Let me out. I want to go to him. Please. P-please." Slowly, my mind is starting to empty and my vision is beginning to blur. It's completely overpowering the little sanity i have left. My wolf wants to take over.
The guards held me by my arm, "Your highness, please, calm down. You're going to get hurt." One of them spoke.
I gritted my teeth as i trash around wanting to get free, "No! I don't care! Let me go!" I snarled when one of their hands accidentally brushed my scent gland.
Don't you fvcking dare.
"Your highness, please. You're going to hurt yourself!"
"No! Shut up! I demand you to let me go!—" I bit the hands of one of the guards trying to hold my arm. He cursed out loud as he lets go of me and held his now, bleeding hand.
You have no right to touch me!
"YOUR HIGHNESS!" I immediately whimpered and kneeled down. My wolf quickly obeying. An alpha's voice is hard to resist especially when it's directed to an omega. It's in our nature. Alphas are still considered as the most powerful.
"Please. I just—i just want to see him. Mew. Mew. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, please." i begged helplessly as i gave up fighting and just let them manhandle me. Slowly, the tears from my eyes starts to flow out.
Mew. Where are you? Please. Please, come back to us.
I can hear whispers coming from Lily and the maids as the guards led me back to my bed.
Once, i got settled. I hugged my knees closer to my chest.
Doesn't he want us, Gulf? Is that the reason why he didn't come back?
I hiccup as i let a hand travel down my chest. My tears starts to soak the cover of my pillow. It hurts. It badly hurts.
Then, i felt someone playing with my hair. I feel so weak and vulnerable, the last remaing energy i had left was spent fighting off the guards earlier, so i just let them brush my hair. I'm just so tired.
"He's coming, okay? Please, wait for a little while longer." Before, i closed my eyes, a kissed was planted on top of my ear.
"Mew, how many pups do you want?" I leaned further into him as i settle in his lap.
He wrapped his arms around me from behind and placed his chin on my shoulder.
"Hmm, maybe....four? Two girls and two boys! Why do you ask? Do you want it now?" He teased as he attempted to tickle me.
I laughed and squirmed, "No! I was just asking!" I push away his hands and tried to escape but he held me tighter.
Once, i calmed down. Silence surrounded the place for a moment. It was nice. Sitting in the middle of our favorite place. Moonlight witnessing our shared moment. The sound of our heart beats were the only thing i could hear. I couldn't ask for more.
He's here. And that's all that matters.
"Gulf? When the red moon finally comes. Please, Don't let go of my hand okay? I'll protect you." Red Moon? What does he mean by that?
"What do—-"
I opened my eyes and I almost purr when i felt warm hands slowly caressing my cheeks. I dreamt about him again.
"My—my prince. You're awake." Then the warmth of his touch was gone. I whine softly at the loss of contact. No, please stay close to me.
I was about to grab his hand back when a hint of familiar scent hits my nose.
I immediately sat up and the moment i look up.......
My wolf started to howl with such happiness and relief.
Cedalwood and lavender.
