My Way To You - Chapter 385

“Rahul?!” Ariana shouted. ‘Just let everything fall into place.’ Rahul said as he side glanced at Ariana. “What?! No! I don’t understand! Rahul!” Ariana shouted but it was too late the indigo fog moved towards them. Ariana looked around, her only escape was to dive into the water but she would be risking her life again. There was a high chance of her running into the water fairies again. ‘If you love Edlyn you will stay put!’ Rahul shouted, stopping Ariana’s thoughts of escape.

“What does this have to do with Edlyn?” Ariana growled as she glared at Rahul. “Ariana….” A familar voice called out from within the fog. “No freaking way!” Ariana gasped. “I can barely hold on… please help me.” He said. Ariana’s jaw dropped as she stared at the mist as it slowly started to dissipate. “Xander?” Ariana said as she regained her senses.

The fog completely disappared and Xander stood in the middle. He gave Ariana a small nod before he dropped to his hands and knees. “Oh my G*d Xander?!” Ariana shouted as he rushed to his side. “What the hell happened to you?!” She continued as she grabbed his shouders. Xander’s head shot up and his eyes started to glow an ominous red as a wide, wicked grin spread across hs face.

Ariana broke out into a cold sweat. Xander’s hand shot up and grabbed her wrist. “I’m hungry….” He said with a low pitched voice. “Rahul, what do I do?” Ariana asked. ‘Why ask me?’ Rahul aid as he brought up his paw and started to groom himself. Ariana glared at him then turned to face Xander. “Eat but pease try to not take too much this time or else I can’t help you.” Ariana said bitterly.

Xander’s eyes faltered, for a split second Ariana saw his normal eyes but soon the red ominous eyes came back. Xander opened his mouth wide and chomped down on Ariana’s hand. Ariana winced, she watched as Xander ate greedily. “S-stop. I-if y-you t-take a-anymore…” Ariana said as she started to lose her strength but Xander didn’t budge.

‘Enough you fool!’ Rahul roared as he pounced onto Xander’s face. Xander instantly let go and Ariana’s body collided into the ground. “X-xander you better start explaining.” Ariana groaned as she turned her head to Xander. Rahul jumped back from Xander’s face, back flipping in the air and changing into his ruby tiger form as he landed. ‘I won’t let him near you again.’ Rahul said as quickly picked up Ariana by the waist and took her a few feet away.

Xander sighed as his eyes changed back to normal and his wide, wicked grin disappeared. “I won’t need to feed for another few weeks. So it’s safe to be around me now.” Xander said as he pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth. Ariana stared silently as Rahul gently placed her back on the ground. “Ariana I need your help.” Xander started but Ariana was furious and didn’t let him finish what he wanted to ask.

“Does Edlyn know.” She said in a fierce tone. Xander flinched, he quickly averted his gaze and hugged himself with a single arm. “No… ” Xander answered just as Ariana placed her hands on the ground and pushed herself upwards. Xander watched as she managed to sit herself up, Rahul laid down behind her and offered his body as back support.

“But Cayden does.” Xander admitted. Ariana’s eyes grew wide, her face paled and her blood turned cold. “What do you mean Cayden knows?” She asked. “He knew from the very begining.” Xander explained. “Your familiar… is it a water element?” Ariana asked as she felt her body trembled. “Yes.’ Xander replied.

“Did you…” Ariana started to ask but then swallowed back her question. She didn’t want to know the answer. Not yet. “What do you want from me?” Ariana asked bitterly. “Fix me.” Xander said in a cold tone. “Screw you.” Ariana replied just as coldly. “Please. I can’t marry Edlyn with this kind of body.” Xander said as he kowtowed to Ariana. “Now you’re using Edlyn to force me? You’re sc.u.m.” Ariana spat.

“How?” Xander asked. “Seriously?!” Ariana shouted in fit of rage but Xander kept his forehead against the ground. “In the past three years, no have you ever thought of getting cured from the moment you knew you changed into that creature?” Ariana asked in a bitter tone. “I never knew I had a choice.” Xander said loudly. “What?! Of course you had a choice! You always have choices! What are you some sort of brainless puppet for someone’s use?!” Ariana shouted.

“Yes.” Xander admitted as he raised his head. Ariana’s jaw dropped. “My family wanted a stronger and smarter heir. My brother ran away from home and my younger brother had not been born yet. So my parents made a deal with the family’s demon, Helmer, he agreed and has been living as my shadow ever since.” Xander explained matter-of-factly.

“Wait, what?!” Ariana shouted. Xander sighed and looked at Aiana indifferently. “Can I rise?” Xander asked. “Ya, yes, yes already but seriously what the f*ck?!” Ariana shouted as she stared at Xander. “Does it really matter? At this moment I need you to break the contract that my family made with Helmer.” Xander said as he looked at Ariana. “No.” Ariana replied. Rahul and Xander both looked at Ariana in shock.

“Why?” Xander asked. “I have to awaken my full powers but more importantly this is something you and Edlyn should talk about.” Ariana said after she took a few calming breaths. “Why does Edlyn have to get involved. This is my problem.” Xander said as he narrowed his eyes.

“No it’s not.” Ariana growled. Xander tilted his head to the right and just looked at Ariana with confusion. “You are going to be a couple. No matter what happens to either of you, you will need to communicate with one another. Knowng Edlyn she will acept you and not let you go through this by yourself. So open up to her and see what happens.” Ariana said as she gave Xander a small smile.

Xander still seemed like he didn’t get it. Ariana could feel her temper rising. “If this happened to Edlyn would you feel comfortable with her hiding it from you?!” Ariana shouted. Xander shook his head no. “Do yu want to say with each other forever?” Ariana asked as she took another calming breath. Xander nodded his head yes. “Then go talk to her first.”
