His Incurable Omega novel Chapter 67

The truth of his words hit me.

"You thought a lot about me then."

"Every angle has to be evaluated."

"Did you fear me?"

He smiles at that, "Yes. I feared what your mind could do. You had already cured. But who knew when you would create destruction instead."

I shrug at that, "I guess we'll never know what kind of Queen I would have been."

"No...and I guess I'll never know what kind of King my son would have become."

We sit in silence again before the door opens, revealing the topic of our conversation.

The King rises and gives me a small nod, "Until next time Fayette.

I smile at the hidden meaning behind his eyes, if there is a next time.

Alto watches as his father leaves before he crawls into the bed with me, wrapping his arms protectively around me.

"How is Jasmine?"

Alto rolls his eyes, "Baffled that Derek won't leave her side."

I grin at that, "he did go away to South America for a year, ignoring her."

Alto smiles down at me, "the wolf told me he did that because he had to put distance away from him and her. Or else he would claim her on the spot."

I gasp at his words, "you can't be serious." My toes curl at the thought.

"I can understand," Alto leans his head down, nuzzling the curve of my neck.

I smile.

So much things we still had to do.

So many experiences we still had left.

Time.

We had no more time.

"And Lizzy?"

I was sad that Lizzy and Jane had not visited as often as I thought.

They came during the first few days, wrapping around me and crying their pain with me as we held each other.

I had only seen them a handful of times since.

"Lizzy blames herself for the fact that we didn't find you sooner."

Alto's tone turns dark as a low growl vibrates down his chest.

"Oh."

I reach for his hand and lace our fingers together.

He sighs as he takes in the contact.

I feel his breath wash over the top of my head as he softly kisses my hair.

"My sunshine."

I smile at his words.

Just in this moment.

I lay back, resting against his warmth.

Just in this moment would I forget those red stains on my hand, and the weight of the world as it rested upon our shoulders.

You are my sunshine,

my only sunshine.

You make me happy,

when skies are grey.

You'll never know dear,

how much I love you.

Please don't take,

my sunshine,

away.

~You Are My Sunshine

Silence.

No. Not silence.

There was silence, but it was broken by my breathing.

My labored, gasping breathing.

Alto hung his head, holding my hand as he watched me.

Maybe this was it.

It scared me.

Scared me.

I didn't want to go.

I didn't want to leave him.

I still wanted to kiss him more.

I still wanted to hold him.

I wanted to love him.

Marry him.

Have children.

Grow old.
