"Anna, do you...?"
"I love you."
If it weren't for the enhanced hearing that he had, he would not have heard her speak.
"I know that we are supposed to be eternal enemies, West. I know I should hate you," she replied. "Not only because of what we are, but what you did... Because you turned me into a monster."
"Anna..." His voice trailed off. 793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9JVgwd2jc
"But for the love of Luna, I can't!" she screamed. "I can't be your enemy and I can't bloody hate you... You only had your own interest in mind, when you turned my brother and I; you didn't care about the agony we went through, every bloody month. But that still doesn't change how I feel..." She exhaled loudly. "Because, you... You saved me, West."
West clenched his hands into fists, letting the tears trickle down his face.793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdYPYEnV44
"I saved you?"
"For a twelve- year-old, the person who saves her is her hero... Even if he hurts her, she can't lose the captivation in him. It's like a severe case of Stockholm Syndrome." She paused. "West, you saved me from an orphanage that put me through hell, every day. And because of that, nothing else matters."
"Anna, I don't know what-"
"And I don't care if you don't feel the same; I don't care if you have someone else..." she murmured. "I don't care if my love is unrequited or unprecedented... It's still love. And its my love for you."
