Flora's pov

Today is the day I am going to tell Heila the truth on who I am. I was terrified to death of his reaction. I knew that he was going to break up with me but he won't be able to say that I lied to him. I was on the rock next to the lake, me and Heila's favorite spot. I think of every possible way Heila could respond with the news. It brought me to tears just thinking about it. I look up to see Heila walking up to me with a blanket. I get up and run to him, causing him to drop the blanket to opens his for me. I cry in his chest as he rubs my back gently.

"It's ok Flora. I got you now. I'll protect you. Sh. Sh," he tried to soothe me as he held me in his arms for several minutes, "You wanted to talk to me about something."

"Yes. Please don't be mad. I only did it to protect you," I wish my tears while trying to calm myself.

"It's my job to protect you. I understand you have secrets and problems that you can deal with. You are a big girl and I know you can handle yourself. Now do you want to tell me what is going on."

"Sit down first," He sat down on the grass while motioning me to sit next to him.

"Ok. The first secret is that I'm not just a fairy," my voice trembled along with my shaking hand.

"It's ok. Just breathe," he held my hand tightly.

"I'm a panther."

She is a what! I never guessed that she would be a panther.

"Flora it's ok. How are you even a panther for one?"

"I asked for it. When a child back home is asked what they want their destiny to be they have to chose between a panther or a fairy. My sisters chose to be fairies. I, on the other hand, wanted to be both. So I asked to be a hybrid. The ancestors were surprised that I wanted that life so they granted it to me."

"Why did you tell earlier?"

"I didn't want you to call me a freak. I was going to tell you. Are you mad?"

"Why on earth would I be mad at you?"

"Because I'm not the beautiful fairy you want." She had tears in her eyes.

"You will always be the beautiful fairy I fell head over heel for. Panther or not. Can- can you show me your form?"

"Ok. Just don't scream."

She stood up and transformed into a black cat. She looked intimidating all black out. But she still looked beautiful. She walked over to me looking as proud as ever and just looked at me. She pushes me down so I was laying down. She walked around me in a slow predator type way. She did this 4 time. I was scared about what would she would do to me. She stopped right in front of me. I would try and get up but she would let out a low growl at me. Then she nuzzled her face in my stomach and started to purr. I guess she was trying to figure out who I was. I stroked her soft fur and she purred even louder. She sat up and transformed back to a human.

"Did I freak you out?"

"That was the scariest and hottest thing I have ever seen."

"Really?"

"Yes. The way you were circling around me I was kinda scared. You looked so graceful. So gorgeous."

"Actually, there is 1 more form. It's when I'm at rest. You told me that whenever we lay down together you feel a bundle of warm on top of you. That's me."

"Can you show me?"

"Ok." She closed her eyes and she transformed into a small little black ball. She looked at me with confusion and amusement.

"Meow." She squeaked. I couldn't take it anymore. I pick her up and held her to my chest.

She was trying to scratch me with her tiny paws.

"You are so cute." I cooed her.

She just kept playing. She got out of the embrace and ran circles around me. Pouncing on and off my leg. She got behind me and I felt something tug my hair. I feel something on top of my head. It's tiny Flora asleep. I pick her up and she transforms back waking up.

"Well."

"That was the cutest I have ever seen you." She blushed

"Really."

"Yes. I love you so much no matter what you look like."

"Good. Cause I have to tell you something else."

"Anything my little kitty," I said tickling her chin. She laughed and pulled away.

"Have you ever been on the most dangerous site?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Because I am the first and only female to ever make the list."

"How do you even get on that list?"

"I honestly don't know. My whole family is on the list so I guess I just made the list due to my family stats."

"Anything else." She gave me a smirk on her face.

"One thing. Close your eyes" she said slowly. I shut her eyes giving her control.

I told Heila almost everything. And he is perfectly fine with it. I have to live with my fantasy first. I push him down so he is laying flat on his back. I make my way to his neck. I active my fangs and kiss his neck.

"What ever you do, don't move."

"I trust you."

"Good. This is gonna sting a little." I clamp down on his neck a drain him.

Not all of his blood, just enough to satisfy me. After about 2 mins, I let go of his neck, cut my wrist with my teeth, and heal his neck. I retract my fangs and wipe my face.

"How did that feel?" I asked shyly.

"It felt weird. And yet pleasant at the same time."

"I always wanted to do that."

"Is that the last secret Flora?"

"Well. One. But its really embarrassing."

"Just tell me. I promise not to say anything. Unless you want me to."

"Iusateetingring," I said in a low fast mumble

"Say that one more time."

"I use a teething ring." He looked at me with wide eyes.

I started to cry in my hands. I was so embarrassed. I wanted to run away and hide in a cave. I started to get up and leave but Heila grabbed my hand.

"Honey, it's ok. I don't care."

"Yes, you do. You think I'm a baby and your gonna leave me for someone better." I said in a sob. He grabbed my waist and rubbed my sides.

"I would never leave you. Not over something like that. I love you. Fur and all."

"Oh, Heila. I love you too." We shared a passionate kiss and we sat back down.

"Flora I have to tell you something."

"What is it, honey?"

"We heard that you girls had a sleep over and the others made me go. I didn't want to but I really didn't have a chose. I knew everything before you told me. Except for the ring and you being a panther. I'm sorry Flora. I really am. Can you forgive me?"

"Of course, I forgive you. I'm glad you were already prepared for the news."

"Thank you, my little fighter. Lay with me please?"

"Ok. But if you have a messed up thumb don't be mad."

"Why would I have a messed up thumb."

"Because I have gum problem and me have to chew something in my sleep."

"I don't mind. Now come here you." I curled up next his side.

I let out a loud yawn and fell asleep. I knew I did the right thing. I loved him and he loved me. Even with a couple of fangs.
