Triple A or should I say my Ahlume Ace Adams was doing the things that need to be done.
When someone comes into your life when you least expect it you bound to have your doubts about them and yes I had my doubts but the man before me was slowly but surely removing those doubts layer by layer and making me fall for him. This is not because of the many things he bought me but because of him in general.
No man has ever cried because of me before, not many men allow themselves to be this vulnerable before a girls eyes and not many men go through such efforts for a girl unless they love her and I was convinced he loved me. He understood, he didn’t pressure me, he just let me be and he was open about his life before me and pretty much everything but there was something bothering him that much I knew.

“I don’t know what to say” I said still in shock. This was too much
“how about thank you Ace you the best boyfriend ever and a kiss” he said wrapping his arms around my waist “you the only boyfriend I’ve ever had” I said rolling my eyes
“cause I’m the only one that’s worthy of you Sweet lips” he said giving a corky smile
He brushed my lower lip and I let out a moan “you need to stop this moaning business. You going to make my dick hard” I chuckled not even knowing what to say to that statement. He planted a kiss on me when I wasn’t expecting it and then he smiled “you very beautiful Anelisa Sibeko” he said that untying my hair
Why was I not surprised again?
I blushed “thank you my handsome guy”
He faked a smile and then looked down. I made him look at me by putting my fingers under his chin, his facial expression was not one I could recognise, he looked worried or scared
“Ace talk to me” I said with worry
He took a deep breath “i’m damaged Anelisa.” He said looking down again “I come from a dysfunctional family which I’m afraid might hurt you”
I cupped his face and made him look at me, he had hurt written all over his face “don’t we all have a dysfunctional family one way or the other.” I said with a smile “My mom’s a witch and my dad’s a vampire and then theres me; a doppelganger who was almost sacrificed for whatever reason” He chortled “stop it.”
I giggled “No serious, I was almost sacrificed on my birthday. How damaged can one get?”
He cringed and tightened his grip on me then he chuckled and kissed me. I knew he was trying to calm himself down. He didn’t take it well when I told him everything that happened, actually he was pissed but I guess being with me calmed him down.
I don’t know, Ahlume feels the need to protect me. I don’t get why Ma’Namhla would tell me to stay away from him

“You stupid you know that” he said rolling his eyes “and you are very smart” He smiled but the hurt in his eyes was still there “talk to me Ace”
He sighed in distress “my grandmother is a witch.” He paused “well more like a leader of her coven which makes her really strong. My father is a hybrid, wolf and a vampire in one and then my brother and I are wolves that need to transition into hybrids” he said and then looked up at me to read my expression
I gasped, he did tell me about the stuff he had been going through, seeing a white wolf and all that other stuff but the information about him being a wold and his dad being a hybrid and his grandmother being a powerful witch was all new to me.
So that’s what dad meant when he called him wolf? WOW! Could my life get anymore complicated? I was almost sacrificed and now my boyfriend is a wolf that needs to transition into a hybrid and might possibly kill me if I heard Kaylin right
“did your grandmother turn you guys into wolves” I asked
“no sweetlips we were born with a werewolf gene which is triggered by a near death experience of someone you love or close to you and when dad got into an accident mine was triggered making me violent and this angry person I don’t recognise… well that was until I met you” he took a deep breath. I sighed cupping his face and he leaned in on my touch “I don’t know how this will make you feel but I don’t feel comfortable with you not knowing considering I almost lost you.” I was about to speak but he put his index finger on my mouth shutting me up “my grandmother says for me and my brother to transition into a hybrids you supposed to carry my child and then die while giving birth to that child and the child be used for a sacrifice” I removed my hands from him but he held them.
I just survived death and now I’m supposed to be sacrificed so that my boyfriend can transition into an unkillable monster.
I suddenly dated back to what Mona’s mom had said about this whole hybrid situation
“Anelisa” he said sternly
I shook my head trying to pull my hands away from his grip “let go of my hands Ahlume Adams”
“so we back on the first name basis sweet lips” he said calmly
“NDIYEKE AHLUME!” (let go of me Ahlume) I scolded in anger
“I cant do that” he said with his hands still holding mine “why? So that you can sacrifice me? when did you find out all of this? was it before or after you started dating me?” I asked trying to pull away from his grip
The more he spoke the more my dreams made sense, the more what Monalisa’s mother had said suddenly made sense. He was the wolf I’ve been hearing about and even dreaming about lately.
Where did this leave our relationship?
“does it matter?” he asked with furrowed eyebrows “why are you telling me this?” I shouted
“because I hate not telling you things Anelisa! And for
the record I only found out when you went missing” he
yelled back. I was about to speak but he told me to shut
up and I looked at him with a raised eyebrow “I’m sorry
but please just let me explain everything to you.” I raised
an eyebrow “Just because its what my family wants
doesn’t mean its something that should happen Anelisa!”
he exhaled “I love you so much and I would never let my
family do that to you. I rather be tortured in the world of
the dead than to have you killed so that I can be some
stupid hybrid” he said with sincerity. He was sincere, I
could always tell when he was being sincere. He was
such a beautiful man I swear. His eyes alone were
enough to make me weak. I didn’t even know what to
say or how to respond to what he had just told me “I’ll
run away with you if I have to. Put you on contraceptives
if need be Anelisa”
I shook my head and he looked at me with a raised eyebrow “I’m not going anywhere with you. I was supposed to stay away from you from the beginning. I was warned against you but I was stupid to fall for the charm and everything else”
“don’t say that Anelisa!” he said letting go of my hands “DON’T YOU FUCKING SAY THAT!” he yelled startling me
He was pissed, his eye colour suddenly changed into a colour I never thought eyes could turn into, it was like they had a flame in them and he was suddenly not the Ahlume I know or could bring me peace with nothing but a look but instead he had this scary look filled with anger, his veins were popping out. at that moment I was really scared that he might do anything to me
“Sweet Lips” he said calmly moving back
I didn’t respond. He walked away and left me sitting ontop of the bonnet. How was I going to get down again?
What happened? Why were his eyes like that? Where was my Ahlume in those eyes I just saw? Who was the monster that could yell at me because my Ahlume was incapable of doing that.
I got off the bonnet and then went to get inside the car and just sat there with tears rolling down my cheeks.
Ahlume scared me more than my father did but what was more painful was that I didn’t love him any less because of what happened instead I wanted to know him more. I wanted to be involved in his world and make him feel better. I wiped my tears leaning on the window watching the trees moved side by side because of the little breeze that was there.
I heard the door open and when I looked up he was back. I looked at him getting inside the drivers seat and then turned back to my side. He looked like someone who had been running, he had sweat dripping down his face and had this smell I could barely recognise. He came to kneel on my side in front of me
“baby I’m sorry I scared you” he said. I didn’t respond. He took my hands into his and I noticied he had blood on his knuckles
“Ace you bleeding. What happened?” I asked with fear and panic
He looked at his hands like it was nothing “punched a tree but I’m fine.” I shook my head looking at them
looking for where he could have possibly been cut but I couldn’t see anything “How are you?” he asked
I pulled my hands away from his grip “please take me home”
He let out a defeated sigh “if that’s what the lady wants.” We drove home in silence with nothing but the sounds of African voices filling the car, he knew how much I was into African music, I’m Talking Tiwa Savage, Yemi Alade and many other artists from the other parts of Africa. I kept stealing glances at him as he drove in full speed, I kept asking myself where the blood came from because Ahlume Adams didn’t not have a single bruise on his hands. he parked opposite my home. I turned to open the door but it was locked.
I sighed before turning to him “please unlock the door” “Anelisa this is childish as fuck” he scolded
“Open this damn door Ahlume” I said trying to open the door again
“At least give me a time frame of how long you planning on doing this madness” he asked with a raised eyebrow I chuckled in disbelief “Madness” I mocked He huffed “Anelisa”
“Ahlume open the door now” I yelled
He tightened his grip on the steering wheel “Fine” he said unlocking the doors
I opened the door and then walked out to my parents house.
What did I get myself into?
