*Fang\'s PoV*

Selene jerk her hand out of Fang\'s hold, "What do you want? Why did you bring me here?" She almost despised Fang with the thought of how she would have to now steer clear of Channing. 

Fang stared at her as his brows creased with the sudden change in attitude. He knew why she was acting this way and somewhere he wanted to fix it. Fang approached Selene and cupped her face, which she could not resist because of her muddled mind, "I want to show you beautiful things, Selene-"

"And what, make me another one of your toys who dance on your finger?" Selene retorted and her drunk mind did the speaking now, "Do you even know how important of a friend Channing is to me?" 

Fang couldn\'t help but look at his soulmate speak of another man. It was not Selene\'s fault that Channing liked her, but Fang realised he had really stepped on her nerves when he challenged her freedom. That was the last thing he wanted, to be on her blacklist of people who had played with her trust. He wanted to be on her priority list and today he realised he had been going in the opposite direction all this time. All she wanted was someone who would assure her that if she fell down, he would be there to give her a hand.

"Selene, let\'s forget about it, okay?" Fang said, and Selene almost looked at him with teary eyes. "You know what, forget about what I said. I promise I won\'t tell anything to your father."

"You would do that?" Selene asked, squinting at him as if she misheard him. 

Fang shook his head, "I said I wouldn\'t do that, Selene. I am telling you that you should have friends like Channing in your life. Forget about what I said a while back." Selene, being friends with Channing, was beneficial for Fang at this moment. Channing was the only trustable source in Winterwells, and Fang could not have Selene start to slowly hate him every time in the future she had to avoid Channing. 

"Why?" Selene almost whispered her words. 

"Because I love you," Fang could not think of any other explanation and Selene was tongue-tied at the sudden confession. It wasn\'t sudden. Rather, Fang had been showing that to her in actions and words before, but she did not want to accept it. "Come with me," Fang extended his hand ahead for her to take and this was the first time he had asked of her permission like this. 

Selene gingerly placed her hand into his, and Fang slowly walked deeper into the wild grass. 

Only the white light of the moon filled the darkness of the night when suddenly Selene noticed a yellow colour in the air. She turned to look around when slowly the fireflies started to rise from their place of sleep as Fang and Selene stepped deeper into the grass. Every step they took only added to the number of yellow lights that dimmed and shone again in the night. It was a beautiful sight, and Selene could only look in awe. She had always dreamt of seeing them. 

Selene couldn\'t understand why Fang had brought her here. She felt a little overwhelmed by the scene and looked at Fang. His eyes were fixated on her and Selene felt conscious of her reaction and the way she looked for the first time in her life. 

Their conversation from last night was still fresh in her mind and it, somewhere, confused her. "Why do you love me?" She asked as she stood facing Fang. 

Fang stared at her beautiful face and the way her eye held a little glimmer in them, "Because you are strong, beautiful, my soulmate, someone who has the potential to change the tides. You know how in the darkness there is little purity?" Fang asked as he tucked her hair behind her ear and Selene breathed in, conscious of his touch. "You are my purity," Fang whispered loud enough for her to hear. 

"Is that reason all?" Selene asked as she looked at that Fang innocently. 

Fang titled his head as he looked at her, taking her every reaction in. How her ears were slowly turning red and how she bit into her lower lips to keep her nerves steady. He tilted his head and spoke again, "Selene, I have been running behind this one goal of revenge my entire life and I know when I reach there, there would be nothing ahead. But now when I see there, I see you. Someone by my side to live the rest of my life with on an endless road."

Selene stared at Fang as she remembered her conversation with him from last night, "You have a reason why you fell for me." 

"Yes," Fang did not deny nor play around with his words. She was his soulmate and they were destined to be together. There was a mate bond that worked between them and right now they were sharing a little part of each other\'s feelings. 

"Didn\'t you say you will lose interest in me if you found the reason?" Selene asked a little heart broken. 

"Does this reason sound like it would make me lose interest in you?" Fang replied. It wasn\'t that he had never tried to find someone for him before, and there had been times when he had thought that person to be the one. But whenever he came across the reasons why he liked them, he just distanced himself because they were like empty shells, easy to break. But with Selene, he saw something very solid. He cupped her face as he continued, "It is rather pulling me closer to you. I want you more badly now, more than before." 

Selene looked away as got her face out of Fang\'s hold. It was a beautiful place here, and it was a charming reason he had, but the same could not be said about her. 

"I don\'t have any reason to fall for you, Fang," Selene looked at him with doe eyes, "rather all against it." She was slowly falling for Channing previously, but had taken a step back, knowing how her life was destined.

Now her soulmate stood in front of her and even though a part of her hated him, she couldn\'t bring herself to do that for some reason. Her life was not as simple, and she had duties to fulfil. Worst was the fact that she had a mother who was waiting for her to be put back in the dungeon and if she ever found out about the soulmate bond between Fang and Selene, it would result in something bad. Selene wanted Fang to remove the mark because she would hate it if that was done forcefully by her mother. 

Both Fang and Selene would suffer consequences, and that was the last thing that Selene wanted. 

Fang knew exactly what Selene was talking about, and this time, he did not let her escape him. He snaked his hands around her waist and pulled her closer.

Their eyes met, and he leaned closer as he spoke, "when you fall for someone, you just fall. You feel the skip in your heart and the need to have them close, just like how soulmates attract. The reason is something you find after you fell for them, not before that. Then that would be tactically liking towards someone with rational thinking and love is irrational Selene." 

Selene felt the skip in her heartbeat as Fang moved closer to her. "Fang," she whispered his name as their foreheads touched. 

Fang wanted Selene to understand it well and so he spoke more because he had so much more in his heart for her and that is exactly what he wanted Selene to have for him as well. "Selene, the reason you fell in love with someone is always revealed after we fall for a person. Don\'t make love a process that you control with reasons and rational thoughts rather, let the flow of time decide it."

Selene gulped as she felt the pang in her heart and the way Fang inched closer to her. There was no rationality or flow of time for her. Just her fate and, in her mind, nothing was fitting perfectly. 

However, Fang was slowly invading her belief, just like how slowly he was invading her intimate space.
