Devon was lashed on the daemon and the 'was lying on the ground, throwing the arrow in his hands away, so that he could not reach it ...
The demon got up and he recovered from his surprise, he pounced on Devon choked
-Are you crazy? What pops into your mind? - I can not afford
father, I spent all this time to fight against my feelings, but now I know what I feel, and even you can not do anything to make me change mind-
Devon's father's eyes widened on hearing of his son and let go
-You have lost my mind, Devon? My son, do you? - Churches seem really worried
-you will not do harm to Anna, will not let you get close to her-she said looking at him full of determination
-And so you have betrayed my trust again ... was not enough that your indecision forced me to intervene, now looking even fronting-
I deeply regret having to put-against you who are the only person that has never had affection, but I have not alternative, non-more-
As you wish, but know that if you can not take this decision in no way escape the consequences ... I'll have to kill you and not feel remorse, not after the outrage that you dare cause-
-Well, I suspected that I would have understood ... I regret very much, but know that will fight to the last beat of my heart, to the last drop of blood in my body that will give me the strength to fight, until my chest will get tighter to my breath-
I watched aghast at the scene, I was exhausted by the efforts made and just could not believe the behavior of Devon, who was risking his life to save me, shortly before he had tried to hurt me ...
His face was pure and white as always, but this time, as the last time I met him, I read something in his eyes burned as animated by a strong feeling, that fires the eye, and when I looked for make sure you were okay, I saw something that I would never have suspected to see in his eyes, or at least, not after what had happened ... expressed sweetness, a sweetness immense, compared to which the house that I remembered in the eyes of my father in watching my mother in that photo was nothing, harmless in comparison Ardenza love that sank in her eyes ...
The father took advantage of this moment of weakness to strike, were near the bow and there was no need to stop his heart with a weapon ...
I saw him stick the arrow in the chest of the child violently, a stifled cry of pain came out of his mouth and meeting my face will not receive a whisper from his lips came to me asking for forgiveness with a sound dumb, but as strong as if was shouted ...
I had finished the tears, the pain had no other way to manifest if they do not corrode the parts in the contemplation of that wretched life sacrificed for me
His father saw him fall to the ground next to him leaned
-You made a big mistake groped obstacles, but even though I am sorry, this is certainly not the biggest mistake you could ever commit, this is not what brought you to death ... believe in love, believing they can have feelings for someone ... this is what I regret most ... I had a better view of you ...- slightly shook his head, annoyed-And now, let's carry out this mission that gave me enough hassle-
The pain was something I felt for Devon of unimaginable, his death was swift, fought less than that of Daniel, but with the same value, an act of sacrifice, an act of love, love I did not think they deserve. A key difference, however, passed between the two ... Daniel died when I saw I had been invaded by the burning desire for revenge, but now that I had witnessed the death of Devon I did not care to live over, I felt like I had never heard in my life: empty, bereft of single reason for living. What I most desire now was not revenge, but death.
The pain was probably more, so much so that I could not get outside, because nothing could console me, nothing could make things better, nothing could relieve the pain ...
My body was powerless and my soul seemed to have evaporated, leaving only un'involucro fragile and devoid of any feeling that there was no pain.
-Stop, I beg you, put an end to all this, Torture me your heart, Make of it what you want, but still-beating impeditegli
-you-can live with once promised me pulling the bow.
One second later, a moment, made an imperceptible movement restoring hope in my heart
Devon had moved some muscles of the arm and in a moment he had removed the arrow from his chest and had driven into heart of his father who got up and was ready to kill me.
I was not happy or satisfied, as they had imagined a few minutes before, to see the petrified body of the demon.
What I got was? I felt bad for having longed for the death of a person ... despite what I had done was not right to kill, nothing would have made this ... I felt dirty, sinful ...
Devon was extremely weak, but to my great joy I saw that his father had not fatally shot, quell'impercettibile movement that had failed to implement in an effort to stay alive had saved him.
He knelt beside her father and I could only see his huge wings still wondering in looking at them.
It was then raised and a furtive tear ran on his face, distilled from the crystalline veil that covered his eyes making them shine like diamonds.
Although he had almost hit mortally, of course with the intention of killing him, and had not shed a single tear for him, commiserating rather coldly, Devon was now crying for his father ...
It breaks my heart to assist further in that scene, and I was still shocked when he looked up meeting my eyes ... suffering on his face was palpable, but soon another feeling gave him a new light
The voice still weak, weak by those catastrophic events, but I saw that the wound had almost completely healed, maybe on some power of which they were provided with the angels and demons.
-Forgive me, Anna, I beg your pardon, if ever you grant ... All this happened because of me, I should first oppose the will of my father, but above all I should give more weight to mine I believe in destiny, in predestination, and only now, after nearly a century of life, I learned the lesson ... we are the craftsmen of our fate, it's up to us to choose ... I was blind for 111 years and it seems that only now has seen the light. I will understand if you do not want to forgive, and you let you live your life-
-Thank you, Thank-Devon-
? - Despite repeated-
surprised what you've fought, Devon, did you fight your nature, love for your father, and whatever I had in mind to make
-No, this is too much, Anna. I can not have feelings, I am convinced, are a demon, was sentenced all'insensibiltà utter ...- paused, then his voice trembled shooting-So I can not comprehend what's that is happening to me ... I do not know how can such a thing, but tonight, when I saw you at the brink of death, I realized that my life had suddenly become meaningless, the air we breathe has lost its vital importance if the other point of comparison is you, the sun suddenly became cool if you're not here to warm, and the beating of my heart have become futile if I can not protect you ... Anna, I love you-
At that moment my heart skipped a beat, my feelings became clearer than ever I was caught in the goodness that demon from the first moment, I thought I had something to prove him, feeling he had never completely vanished in me, despite the fact he had been violently struck but now, that terrible night when I knew my life would be changed forever, irreversibly, I understood what it was that feeling of loss that I had every time he was beside me, that accelerated heart beat that seemed to want me out of the chest every time I thought about him and I shiver ran through her back now that her lips had touched my forehead in a gesture of protection
Devon was the only person that thought in mind, but above all, the only person I thought that in the future ... his eyes burning, his melodious voice and warm while uttering those words with difficulty, slowly, giving it an intensity that, if possible, made even more their deep meaning ... Now I understand ... his heart was more valuable than mine and that contact had lasted moments that seemed eternal sugellato our tacit promise.
The seconds followed were dominated by a single element ... light
My heart was dominated by an intense feeling, which prevented him from contracting, I can not breathe, but suddenly did not seem to have more irrelevant ... I leaned against his chest Devon, immobile, had ceased to breathe ...
I was in a state of total bewilderment when I opened my eyes, I was in a place that did not know, seemed like a long tunnel of light, I was alone. I looked around desperately looking for someone, and my surprise when I saw Elena skirted the unthinkable, by air distraught, I was meeting ... I was happy to see that he was still alive, if I were him at that moment ... courses was just close enough to embrace not find myself wondering tighten the air.
-Wow, Anna, you're an angel incantavole, you have beautiful wings, he said full of emotion
I could not see them, but I managed to touch the tips of your fingers, they were soft and silky-
I'm really an angel? -
Yes, you
-turned-I have always believed that death would put an end to everything, I was wrong I said more ...- myself that she
-Anna, I must tell you something ... more ... I was sent to protect him, along with Daniel, to your mother ... there is a law that prohibits the angels to personally intervene in private affairs, so he sent us why you proteggessimo, and I failed in my mission ... I almost died and went to heaven before I had to make sure you save ... are unfit, Daniel died because he was alone and the father of Devon was a very powerful demon ... sorry, should not have to be this way ... But maybe now I prefer to talk to you ...-
-My mother? You are here? -
I smiled sweetly and gave me mean yes with the head
-E 'right behind you-
Tears flowed from my eyes that I had no time to check them, cried with happiness when I once saw her face, it was clear, framed by brown hair and blue eyes, with the same reflexes that characterize the mine, which trembled transparencies, while with his fingertips, controlled a tear that had slipped and slid on his cheek
-Mom-my voice reduced to a barely audible whisper, but I was sure she would have heard even if my mouth had remained silent, because that whisper just said it was only a shadow of the cry that was shaking my heart at that moment, my heart was calling her, she had always known and now needed to implement sound that call, I was sure she would have heard.
I seemed to dream, when the distance between us and nothing became his embrace enveloped me, and the heat that emanated would fire even the most cold of the poles, and my tears when I heard rigarmi seemed burning his face ...
-I have given an immense joy ... are 19 years you look from above, and every time I squeeze the heart seeing how I suffered, all your sob shook my chest and even your every tear my eyes also hurt, but at the same time also fills your every joy my heart and now I feel that you are happy. Oh Anna, you're the greatest treasure I could ever want, and now you're here, and I can hug you, read what your eyes sore lurks ... I know that I love you, you can not imagine how-
Her voice was sweet and melodious, angelic smile and a warm and full of emotion he had raised the sides of the mouth by dropping a tear from his eyes, then returned to his belt with the warm embrace
-C 'is for you, someone whispered to me a few moments later, and gave me a kiss on the cheek allonttanò smiling-you-look she said, disappearing from my horizons a little recently, in the company of Elena.
there must be someone behind me and, turning, I saw an angel out of the light, the most beautiful angel I had ever seen, the face white and light seemed to shine on his own, and blue eyes, pure, full of sweetness as I was meeting seemed to scream your feelings as a tear, to see me, bathed her face ...
-Devon-whispered almost hoarse, incredulous at what I saw
had become an angel, had changed its nature, had made his choice, he chose the good.
There was no need for words, gestures, nothing, no gesture, no word was worthy to express what I feel, and the intensity of that moment, the magnetic attraction that united our souls, our hearts in that instant, it was impossible to define, its ineffable also prevented the most significant word of the universe to give it a sound. The word that lends its name to the highest of feelings, that word which, if sincere, is the noblest that could ever exist, did not seem worthy to express the love felt at that time.
I never believed in the stars, but now I was sure ... the hearts of those who are watching us from above, persons who have loved and continue to do so, looking down on us, although we only see their glow, not knowing that it is only a reflection, a glimpse of their love.
Now I was sure that I had expressed the wish that that night when he had a shooting star crossed the sky, had come true ... Now
thought I had found faith in something, in feelings, in their truth and their power, now believed in justice that had allowed me, after 19 years, the happiness of knowing what it was ...
I was no longer alone, I was loved and, most filled my heart with joy, I loved.
