Chapter Twenty-Three: Finally
Delilah~
The sun rose as Agustin collapsed to his death. My hand loosened on the knife as I watched Agustin's blood pour out.
"D-Delilah..." His voice cracked.
"Sorry but...you shouldn't have messed with me." I took a step back and blew away my hair covering my face.
"I want to live happily ever after..."
Years of suffering I actually had something to fight for. And that was my happiness.
"Stu- stupid Delilah..." He cracked a wicked smile as his eyes stared into emptiness. Those hazel eyes were nothing now.
"Hope to never see you again." I growled.
Blood dripped on my arm, staining my white dress.
This time evil was dead for sure.
Tears streamed down my face as I felt a huge relief soften in my heart.
It was all worth it.
"Delilah..." I heard a whisper behind me. I turned around to see Sebastian standing over Max's unconscious body.
"Sebastian!" I ran into his arms.
"Shh its okay." He whispered embracing me in his arms. I wanted to cry. Cry of freedom. I was free from the suffering. This time I saved my past.
''Sis!" Samuel came rushing in. Lily followed right behind his heels.
"Samuel!" I quickly went to hug him. My brother was alive and thanks to him he saved my child in the future.
"Sis..." I felt his tears stream down. "Thank you." I whispered. "Thanks for taking care of Derek."
"Derek?" He wiped his tears from his face and gave a confused chuckle.
I gave a small smirk knowing I was lucky to even go back.
Lucky to have a second chance.
"Lets go." I grabbed his hand and pulled in Sebastian's and Lily's hand with mine.
"Lets go forever and after."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Never would I have thought of marrying to the man I loved. Sure I've made many mistakes but the one who I loved was actually different. His suffering was just like mine and his love was pure and sincere. Love was what saved me from my torturing experiences. Thanks to Sebastian I found myself.
I grabbed his hands and stared into his beautiful gray eyes.
"I love you." I whispered.
"I love you too." He smiled back.
We stood in the alter once again. My once stained dress was replaced into a simple short white dress while Sebastian just had a black shirt with jeans on.
Imagery didn't matter. What mattered was the inside.
"Sebastian?" The priest faced him. "I declare you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.
The morning rays of the sun illuminated around us giving us a sign of hope.
Hope wasn't a choice. I already won.
"Finally." Sebastian leaned in and kissed my lips. And my world was in his hands.
"Delilah! Delilah!" My brother cheered. Lily got up beside him and started to clap and cheer. "Sebastian! Delilah!"
This is how I wanted. Just me, my brother, Lily, and the man I loved in a quiet place near the trees. I finally got married to true love and best of all the spell was broken.
I was finally me.
The best thing to hold onto life is each other.
