Chapter 200: Reunite
I sniffed drying my tears, using the back of my hand to wipe them off, I took a deep breath, settling my nerves and ceasing my aching heart, I flashed my golden orbs open, my crescent moonlight tattoo gleaming against my forehead, I whirled in desperate need to get out of here, I could feel him, he was close, I could feel Nicklaus!
[A/N: Okay this will be the best time to play the song ’Storm’ by Ruelle, just think of it as an added boost to this scene thank me later ;-) ]
I ran, I have no idea where I was going but I just did, as I did, I could see the several images of our past lives for over 2 thousand eyes playing on both sides, our first meetings, how we fall in love, and how we lose each other and once again meet in different timelines, all those times we always found each other, even when forces tried to separate us, we were always destined to find each other and be together, it took me long to realize it, our fate was intertwined and we were destined for each other.
Even my shattered fate, Love has proven to be stronger, my love for him, the love we share for each other was greater than the universe itself, since the very moment I set my fox eyes on him in that snow drawing his last breath, that very moment I chose to save him. I have always watched him read, practice magic, and grow up, I have always watched him and he has always seen me.
I came to a halt suddenly when I felt water rise up from my feet, I couldn’t understand it but by the feel of it... felt like the Waterfall Of Truth. Before I knew it the water got to my chest level and next I was buried within the deepest depth of it, I shut my eyes close my breath giving out but I didn’t give up, not until I see him, I flashed my eyes open and I could see the surface far from me, the lights from it, I was determined as I tried to swim up as fast as possible, but the more I did I just couldn’t reach the surface and I was running out of breath, as bubbles escape from my mouth.
No! I can’t drown like this, I must reach it, I must reach him no matter what, I kept swimming as hard I could but I couldn’t reach it was despairing, it hurts and more water was getting to my lungs, but I shock my head snapping out of the reality of me dying right here, I couldn’t help the driver that struck through me to keep going, even in the face of death even when I had no chance to reach I still saw the grasp of hope and I was willing to reach for it.
I stretched my hand forward and it was that exact same moment a hand grasped mine and pulled me to the surface before I could blink.
I coughed painfully, the water coming off, I felt strong arms wrapped around me. I slowly opened my eyes, rising my head away from his chest, and met his emerald eyes, I forced the tears threatening to fall, because they really just wanted to gush out like a stream, my heart swell, my mind raced and my body tingles in his touch and a burning desire flushed through me like a wave, all the strong feelings within me bubbled unstoppable, keeping me wide awake and everything else in fades and I knew just then, My curse of Mismatch was broken.
MATE!
My fox roared within me and a smile spread against my lips because I knew it was directed to him and only him, for eternity.
"Yelena" my name rolled off his tongue and I could feel the emotion it held, it held pain, sadness, and longing, but all will be well because I was here to take it all away.
