...I shout your name at the end of my destiny, falling into a dream where we are stuck unable to get back up, not regretting that I love you, why am I not in your heart....

Alex's death brought deep wounds to the werewolves. They are currently still busy to enthrone the new Werewolf King, as the seat of leadership cannot be left empty for too long. Alex was buried in Rome, as he wished in life. Steven and the others attended Alex's funeral. However, not with Kayla, he was not allowed to do so. Many rumors say that Alex died because of Kayla, leading some Werewolves who did not know what happened to hate Kayla and blame the death of the great Werewolf King on Kayla.
Even Akira was very angry with Kayla, and said that he no longer wanted to have any relationship with his twin sister, giving a stronger blow to Kayla's mentality. Kayla was officially removed from the Werewolf herd by Alex before her death. Maybe Alex made the right decision, this way Kayla no longer has any relationship with the werewolves, in the future Kayla can live with Sammy who is a vampire without any frills of Werewolf hatred that has been rooted in vampires. However, how could Kayla continue her life with all the guilt that gnawed at her heart.
***
Sagara Mansion.
One month after Alex's funeral, Kayla still looks moody, she rarely comes out of the room. He still blames himself for Alex's death, even though Sammy has convinced him thousands of times that it was not Kayla's fault but the heartfelt wishes of the Werewolf king, but it looks like Kayla shut her ears off all Sammy said.
"Darling?" Call for a gentle Sammy who is stroking Kayla's head lying on her lap.
"Hmm," Kayla replied with her eyes closed.
They were enjoying time together on the balcony of the room, letting the spring breeze hit their bodies.
"Today I'm going to see Oracle Yama. I hope you can come with me, so you can hear how the real thing happened" Sammy said softly.
"What events? If Alex's death wasn't my fault?" cibir Kayla was still reluctant to open her eyes, she was already tired of hearing such words.
With Vella's death the entire curse of the evil demon's magic also gone, everyone could recall the past that the Siren woman had erased. Robin was very sorry for not remembering Kayla all this time. Life seems to be going in the right direction again, but Kayla can't deny the huge hole that gaped in her heart over Alex's death.
"Come with me! Oracle Yama will explain it," repeated Sammy with a slight plea.
Just a small nod that he got.
***
"I want you to re-explain everything you said back then in front of my lover, so that he doesn't feel guilty for the Werewolf King's death" Sammy said in his heart. He had heard everything within days of the incident that took Alex's life, and now he wanted Kayla to know it too.
"Gosh why are you guys so troublesome. Listen to me half were! You see him ? " yama said to Kayla, her tiny hands pointed at Sammy in annoyance, "This vampire in front of you, has gone through a thousand exams so that she can get to your side, I don't want to judge if you live an easier life, I know you suffer too. But aren't you two together now? then why else would you still think of someone who won't even be able to come back?" yama concluded.
"Someone you mean can't come back for sacrificing his life to protect me, so how can I just start living my life like nothing happened?" asked Kayla coldly.
"You know, sometimes we forget to appreciate what we have right now, just because we want something we can't have, and when it's gone, it's gone, only then do we realize how much you mean to waste" Yama said.
Jess.., pain strikes Kayla's heart, that's what happened to her, she was too focused on other things and ignored Alex's feelings, and now it's all for nothing.
"Enough Yama ! I want you to explain everything, so that he is no longer burdened, not to add to his guilt, so don't beat around the bush and just say it!" sammy exclaimed in anger at finding Kayla's body trembling again with guilt.
"I say this so that your woman understands and does not make the same mistake" Yama told Sammy, her sharp eyes now turning to stab Kayla, "Do you want such an event to happen again, what if this time your vampire dies?" yama said sharply.
Yama's words slapped Kayla's consciousness, knowing that if Sammy was dead, it was certain that he would follow her into the afterlife.
"Let me tell you Were. Fifteen years ago I had Alex's memory restored, he was the only one who remembered the whole incident that Vella had wiped out, besides your Vampires of course. When I handed you over back then, she only considered yourself to be her property, nothing more, I was also surprised that the so arrogant Alex ended up actually falling in love with you," obviously Yama made Kayla close her mouth in surprise, "I didn't want to interfere in your affairs at first, but seeing the seriousness of your vampires in carrying out the tasks I gave, I finally went back to see Alex, Alex, and asking him to promise to let you go if you ever remember your Vampire and keep coming back with him, I think he reneged on his promise because he asked Sammy for a duel when you asked him for his blessing. Well.., even though in the end the duel was won by this damn vampire but still Alex loves you too much so that he can not let go of you," added Yama.
"I must admit I was impressed by his sincerity, but that doesn't mean he can break a promise with an Oracle, I'm not a generous person. The point is Alex knows that you're not really his, and he's blood-bound to Sammy, but he insists on separating you from him. Actually, if it wasn't for Alex trying to keep you away from everything Sammy and your past, you'd probably remember it sooner, because Vella's magic isn't able to erase the ancient magic that binds you with blood. Vampires that are already bound cannot be separated from their partners. I think Alex purposely separated you too to get revenge on Sammy. So he knew he shouldn't have held back a vampire's partner, because a bonded vampire could do anything for his partner."
Yama's explanation makes all the behavior that Alex has been doing to keep Kayla and Akira under his control reasonable, the various prohibitions set by Alex for himself first is to keep him away from Sammy. Kayla really didn't expect any of this.
"But, it is true that King Werewolf sacrificed his life to protect you, however you still owe him, but that was his own choice. So you better respect him and move on with your life happily because that's what Alex wants. Appreciate what you can get right now before it goes away from you, lest you fall in the same hole twice, "the advice from Yama makes Kayla sober, Kayla said, if during this one month, he only focused on blaming himself, and ignored Sammy who was beside him.
"If you understand, go! don't try to bother me again Vampire, go and be happy!" expel Yama.
"Aishhh..., my house is now completely insecure, just as they come, so I am still an Oracle. Akh.., I'll move house after this. Sucks," Yama's grumbling sayup still sounded as Kayla and Sammy stepped out of the place where the benevolent Oracle was.
