Chosen By The Moon

“What are you doing?” She asked jerking her body to turn and face meristead of having her scarred back to me. I saw nothing but horror on her face and I sighed at how insecure she was about it. She had no idea I truly loved her for who she was. Scars and all.

“Im sorry. I just, Want you to know that you’re perfect, regardless of what marks you may have.” She shook her head and swallowed thickly still staring at the white roof above us.

“Just, please don’t touch them… they are ugly and…” I cut her off immediately by cupping her cheek and turning her head to face mine once again. I gently pecked her lips and frowned in sadness at her opinion. I knew she thought they were unsightly.

“They are amazing.” I truly didn’t care that she had them, I just wanted her to see that I was madly in love with every single part of her. “You stood up for yourself, and never once allowed your views to deviate, despite what you were going through. Those scars are a sign,

you are completely unshakable when it comes to making a better world. The fact that you received them, instead of submitting. shows just how far you’re willing to go to have equal footing. You should be damn proud of them.”

It was a known fact that Dylan possessed a mouth that ran away with her most of the time, if not all of the time, however for the first time since I had known her, she was speechless and simply stared at me

“I’m basically a walking talking poster child for abuse, Lewis. Every part of my skin has some sort of mark or memory of what the king did to me. Even if I am proud of myself, I hate my body because it

was powerless to do anything against him.” She sighed and shuffled up to rest her head on my chest, as soon as she did she spoke again, quietly, making me completely understand where she was coming from. “My back is the worst, I can’t even shower properly, because either the pressure of the spay or the temperature of the water causes me pain. It’s not a simple matter of the way it looks, even though it’s not pleasant in the slightest, but it’s still…”

Causing you to suffer.” I finished her sentence off while a flash of guilt shot through me at not realizing sooner. I ought to have known really, her scarring was excessive I really ought to have figured it out sooner that her skin was so thin and fragile because of it that certain things would cause discomfort. “I’m sorry, I should have known.”

“I didn’t tell you, and you’re not a mind reader. Well, I guess you sort of are, but only to wolves.” She chuckled trying to lighten the mood. “Lewis… can I ask you something? She suddenly looked very serious despite our attire being nonexistent.

“Of course, I’m always here if you need anything. I hope you know that. She nodded with a small smile and nothing but sincerity clouding her eyes. She knew that she could ask anything of me, I could tell she knew that much.

“Lewis, what do expect to happen after king Josh and his family have been defeated? Now she had my complete and utter undecided attention. I thought she would have asked me something about last night, and our activities, but instead she went straight into this topic.

I could tell that the weight of things was really starting to get to her. I admit, I wasn’t really sure she could carry everything that people expected her too, even still I gave her my honest answer.

“I think the world will end up in complete limbo.” I sat up from my laid down position and looked at her nothing but seriousness on my face. “And… I think a lot of people expect you to take the throne.” She ghed turning her head to me, she didn’t want to take over from Josh, anyone with a brain could see that much.
