Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 437
Chapter 437: Love And Tragedy
“I… I did not mean to hurt her daughter, and at the time, i did not know that the senate was so corrupt. I only wanted them to take her away as punishment. I wanted them to take her far away so that i could have Bolu to myself like I always had. But I was a fool. Because of my selfishness, lives were lost, and Mich was born sick. Bolu became a murderer and a cannibal.” she sighed softly. Looking at the blade in Dylan’s hand, still very much tempted to take it from him and plunge it into her own neck.
This was something Dylan also saw and thus, held the blade even tighter.
“Bolu became the monster he was because of me. My love for him turned him into a monster. For years, i have had to leave with that guilt. For years, i have watched as he killed and slaughtered many, feeding on their flesh, seeking pleasure from their bones.
But no matter how much he consumed, it was not enough..” she spoke softly, “…It was not enough to fill the emptiness inside. Not enough to fill the Hole I dug in him. And so that day, when I saw you two battle, I had to make a choice. I…I wanted to free him from all the pain that I had caused him, “And so I did it. I killed my first love.” She raised her head to look at Dylan, right in the eyes.
For a second there, her eyes did not carry tenderness, only the emptiness of a lost woman searching for her own way in a very messed up world.
Yet, in them, Dylan found a semblance of peace. Surprisingly, he could see how human she was. In her fault, in her greed for her first love, in her pain of having to lose him, and lastly in her confusion of it all—He saw a woman.
Truly, beast people were no different from humans. At least in his eyes, he did not think that they were.
Dylan cupped her cheeks, and pulled her in. This time around, he was the one that kissed her. After a few seconds, their lips parted ways, “You are a cruel woman. I understand, but in this world, is there truly any one of us that is not cruel? I rather have you, bad and good than someone else.”
His words, soft and moving, sank into her heart, and all of a sudden, in his eyes, she could see that he actually saw her. Yes, he saw her for who she was—a vain woman and everything, and he still loved her.
This look he gave her, at a point in her life, she had wanted this same look from someone else. Yes, she had wanted this look from Bolu.
Her excitement was true, and she could hold her need to be loved no longer. she wanted him to show her. immediately, she pushed him to the ground.
As she did, her blouse loosed at the edges.
Klein the Wolf man had been right the other day. The skin hiding under her clothes was both beautiful and soft.
Dylan ran his fingers across her skin, from her collar bone all the way down to the lumps of her chest where are yellow core was.
“Your love…show me!” she requested without shame.
Dylan knew what she meant. He had never done this before, but somehow, as if guided by instincts, he knew what to do, and in the night under the blessing of the twin moons, their bodies, nude for the world to admire proved their love to the heavens and the rough earth beneath them.
Their tangle started slow, with each one adapting to the rythm of the other one, and then, even fiercer.
Along the line, Dylan had taken her to her room within the Orphanage where they continued with the sheets until the moons in the sky were off duty, and the sky began peeping in the horizon.
Dylan laid on the bed with Momo, half laying on his chest.
Her slender fingers danced on his body, playing with the muscles of his arm. Muscles that had been toned as a result of war, and the scars on his skin.
Slowly, her fingers danced all the way to his palm, and then she massaged the callouses he had there as a result of violence. Even though his hand was rough to the feel, she could not help but feel safe as a result of his touch.
“Will you be going back to your country?” she asked, her voice soft, but shaky at the same time.
“No!” he replied nearly immediately. “There is nothing for me there. Besides, I was born a orphan. But here, there is much to live for. I’ll stay with you. With Mich, and all the others. I’ll protect you.” His words went out with certainty to a decision he had made.
“won’t you miss them?” she asked.
“Well…” he paused a bit, thinking about his friend whom he considered to be a brother. He thought about Deamon. Surprisingly, he also thought about Chiron and Captain Timi. To say that he would not miss them would be a lie.
But the ‘Desire’ and ‘Love’ of a woman always had the ability to whack common sense out of the most sensible men. Dylan was not even the smartest of the bunch. Surely, he would rather be here with Momo than any where else.
She giggled lightly, and then she turned to him, “in that case, we…” she spoke shyly, “…we can get married if you want. Although because of the state of things in the kingdom, it won’t mean much, but it will definitely mean much to us.”
After saying this, she realized what she had just done. She had proposed to him. All of a sudden, she felt her cheek go red and hide under the sheets.
Dylan was not expecting such a request, but her reaction after wards was so cute that he could not help but want to tease her.
At such a time, there was a knock on the door.

“Momo… there is no water in the Basins, I’m thirsty.” It was from one of the kids.
Both Dylan and Momo paused.
She suddenly remembered that they were not alone in the house, and indeed they were out of water.
Dylan had even said the same thing when he came back last night.
She turned to him, “you can take your time with your answer… NO! tell… tell me when I get back.” Before waiting to hear what he had to say, she ran out of the room.
Soon, she had assembled the kids as usual and they had carried their buckets to go fetch water at the stream.
Dylan on the other hand, laid on the bed. He had a smile on his face. He had had a difficult life until now, but he could tell that the heavens were finally smiling at him. After all, he had met a woman like Momo.
Just remembering how they had tangled in the sheets several times last night made him chuckle to himself. he was so excited that he could even feel his male organ rise again.
“Maybe a few more rounds when she comes back.” he thought out loud.
Just then, he heard a knock on the door, “momo, I’m thirsty.”
Dylan remembered that voice. It was not the voice of any of the other kids. It was Mich. Considering what had happened last night, Momo most have left him behind and took the other children with her.
He stood up, dressed up and opened the door, “Momo went out with the others to fetch water, don’t worry they will be back in a while.”
“But I’m thirsty. I haven’t had anything since yesterday.” Mich complained.
Dylan sighed. It was true. The wolf gang had kidnapped the little one yesterday, and those fools did not even have enough food for themselves, feeding a hostage was entirely out of the equation.
He sighed once more. “Okay, Okay, come on, lets go to the stream.”
Dylan took the boy’s arm as he walked out of the Orphanage home, strolling through the town as he would. However, he had only taken a few steps in when he noticed that something was not right.
Of course, the people of the Beast kingdom were not all that smiley because of the economic situation of the nation, but this was early hours of the morning. There was supposed to be a bit more life in the town.
All of a sudden. he could hear coughing. And then he saw someone with a bucket of water on their head just ahead. The person staggard a bit, and then fell to the ground. The water pouring at the side.
Dylan immediately rushed over to help. It was a Fox woman. She looked to be in her late sixties. “Aunty, are you okay?” he asked. However, the moment Dylan saw the state of her eyes turn a shade of blue with blue blood leaking from her mouth, he instantly knew what had happened.
