Chapter 54

"Oh. SHIT!" Wayne said.

I ran forward and jumped through the air. I pushed him to the ground. He pushed me off and threw a punch but I ducked. I wasn't stupid. I knew his fighting style. I put one leg behind his legs and the other at his throat and threw him to the ground. I knew he wouldn't give up that fast. He jumped up and grabbed my leg as I kicked him, flipping me to the ground. I rolled over as he stomped down. I got up and jumped kicked him in the face. That had always been my specialty. He fell backwards and I pinned him down.

"You will never be strong enough to beat me! NO ONE TOUCHES MY BABY BROTHER! I backhanded my husband for it a long time ago. I should have beat the shit out of you when we were still in school. I AM the Lone Hunter! I AM the Warrior! I should kill you. But I made a promise to someone that I would keep my humanity! And you are not worth it! I used to let you ruin my life but no more!" I shouted.

I stood up and started to walk back to Daryl when Maggie pulled out a gun and fired. I turned and saw Lūthar drop dead. He had gotten up to kill me. I looked at Maggie.

"You're family. We protect our kin." She said.

I nodded. I looked at Alex. Beth had helped him up. I ran to him and hugged him.

"I love you my brother. Yo te amo." I said.

"Yo te am hermana." He said.

I kissed his cheek and looked at everyone.

"I heard what all of you said. All this time I thought I was alone…..well except for Alex and Daryl…..I was wrong. You guys are my family. I'm sorry I took so damn long to realize." I said.

"Better late then never." Lori said.

I smiled and nodded. Then I looked at Daryl. He wasn't smiling. I ran forward and threw my arms around him.

"I love you Daryl Dixon. I heard what you said but reality is…you saved me. You kept your promise to my Abuelito and him. You are an honorable man." I said.

All he said was,

"I love you Elena Dixon."
