I take the blade and place it against my face. “I’ll do anything,” I whisper. “I’ll change my face. I’ll cover it in scars. What must I do to show you I am speaking the truth? I cannot go on living as Edragon but maybe I can live as someone else.”
Aksha clings to my wrist and places her fingers around the blade. I drop the dagger and kiss her, falling into her arms and taking hold of her. I only feel real here. I only want to breathe when she kisses me.
“Who are you?” Aksha whispers as she presses her forehead to mine. “If you are not Edragon, then who are you?”
“I’m a man who loves you,” I whisper.
Aksha sniffles and shakes her head. “Don’t be like that.”
I laugh and grasp her face between my palms. “I mean it!” I then grin and hold my tears. “I will serve you, loyal and willing to lay my life on the line. Let Mero beat me to a pulp and smash my face in if you must. Just hide me.”
Aksha takes in a deep breath and nods.
I kiss her again, pushing her down into the bed so she can feel every moment of my gratitude for her.
“Stop. Wait.” She pushes me back gently. “So...who are you?”
I kiss her paw. “You create me.”
Aksha wraps me up in her arms and we lay together in silence. I hold tight onto her and soon she sits up and looks at me.
