Chapter: Chapter 127 (Epilogue)CHAPTER 127 (Epilogue) LENA. "Do you think this is a good idea?" I asked Damon as I slipped into a simple gown. One I usually wore when going to important meetings. Damon, who had slept over, all thanks to my Dad who gave him the permission, was still on the bed typing away at his phone. He looked up at me. "What's that? The meeting?" I nodded. "Yes." He climbed out of the bed and placed his phone on it before walking over to where I stood and cupping my cheeks. "Yes, love. It is an absolutely good idea. An opportunity for me to make it up to everyone and I don't think I can do it without you. So get dressed and let's go to the council meeting." "Okay?" I nodded. We arrived late. The meeting had started about an hour ago and just as we stepped in, everyone turned to look at us. Master Choi was at the door. He smiled at me. "You did it." I looked at Damon who shook his head. He didn't want me telling people what happened. It was our little secret and I was going to keep it f

Chapter: Chapter 126 CHAPTER 126 LENA. We were back in Willow Town. Directly in front of the tree close to the portal. Damon decided that closing it for good was the best idea. And I agreed to it. As soon as it was closed, I turned to him with a bright smile on my face. "I still can't believe that this is already over. It ended as soon as it began." "It wasn't easy anyway." Damon replied as he parted a branch for me to pass through. "I thought I was going to die for real. Metheus he...he makes me so afraid." "But he's gone now," I took his hand in mine and we intertwined fingers. "He's gone for good." "And I am happy." He sighed and looked at me. I pushed back a lock of his hair that fell over his face. "I am so happy, Lena. I am happy to be here with you. I want to help now. This is my way of repaying my sins." "It wasn't your fault," I said to him as we burst out of the woods. I smiled, seeing that my car was still there. It was almost dawn and I could tell from the way the skies

Chapter: Chapter 125CHAPTER 125 LENA. "She is the weakest of them all," He snarled, his feet leaving the ground as he floated into his air and commanded darkness. "I thought we were bringing some challenges. But this one? She's going to be dead before this ends." "Don't listen to him, Lena. He's trying to make you afraid of him. It's what he does." This was definitely harder than I thought. I was just coming out from the shock of seeing everyone that had died in the attack and having to let them go for good. There was this pain and burning hatred in my chest and it was all directed at the man standing before me. He was evil, menacingly cunning like the Devil and I saw why Damon was so afraid of him. I would be too. But I wasn't. All I wanted to do was avenge the death of my mother and everyone else. I had vanquished all of his demons, had his sons all locked up in abyss and it was just me and him against the whole fucking world. He was strong, I had to admit that. None of

Chapter: Chapter 124CHAPTER 124 DAMON. Wyverns. I hated them with everything in me. They were the bane of my existence and my father had used these creatures to traumatize me a whole lot of times. I didn't even want to think about it. But Lena was standing beside me and she didn't look the least afraid. "They are an illusion, Lena," I informed her. "Created in his mind and brought to life like a hologram." She nodded. "That means we go for him?" I nodded. He wasn't here yet but that was the memo. "Yes." From the tower, we could see the Palace. There were several entrances on each floor and I knew which he was going to step out from. More wyverns flew out through the dome of the castle, flapping their dark, veiny wings and screeching into the night air as they flew around. One swooped down to our level and I ducked, pulling Lena along with me. "Their talons are sharp enough to kill you." "Not if we kill them first." "My father, remember?" She nodded. Just as we mo

Chapter: Chapter 123CHAPTER 123 LENA. My smile didn't falter. Not even when uncertainty creeped in. "Trap?" I burst into laughter. "That's nice. What type of trap though? A bobby trap?" I burst into laughter when I noticed how their frowns deepened. "We have no time for that. You're going to calmly walk to us and you're going to surrender. Unless you want us to force you." Slowly, my arms spread out. My eyes darted over to the other side of the wall. It was just Damon there. Just as he shook his head at me with panic in his eyes, he was pulled off the wall forcefully. I frowned and darted my eyes back to the men before looking back at the fort. Damon was in combat with Stefan. What the fuck? Something was wrong and Damon was unaware. Closing my eyes, I felt my powers bubble up from my insides. My eyes opened and I didn't miss the shock on the men's faces. A smirk curled up my lips and I drew close, feeling frost coat on my fingers. One of the guards broke out of the others and

Chapter: Chapter 122CHAPTER 122 DAMON. We both took a seat on one of the tree logs and maintained an awkward silence. She probably didn't care but I did. I wanted to tell her that I missed her and that I wanted to kiss her full on the lips. That I wanted to touch her and sink my fingers into her hair. But she didn't seem to be in the mood for all that. If there was someone more determined than Stefan, then she had to be the one. She placed her backpack on the floor and zipped it open before grabbing a bottle of water and a croissant. She looked at me and raised it into the air in a way of asking me if I was going to eat but I shook her head and smiled at her in appreciation. Nodding, she sank her teeth into the croissant and began to chew slowly as she took a look around. She gulped down her water and kicked at a stone. I knew she was avoiding me. I knew she was avoiding getting into a conversation with me. Sighing, I leaned against the tree trunk close to me and watched her while she a

Chapter: Chapter 24Chapter 22 Ryan’s point of view I dusted off the dirt on my pants while I kept my gaze glued to Seb’s trail of disappearance. I’d finally gotten to him, and he refused me still. What I’d give right now to be able to go into his mind and check out the mystery he is at the moment. To know just what currently clashes inside that fine space of his mind. His thoughts about me, about us, and about what’s next. I stood there, rooted to a spot for more than a minute even after he was gone just thinking out loud to myself on how the night has to end like this. I’d gamble my life for the chance of the night ending with me naked in bed with him, or us cuddled up together and getting over our past. Any ending so long as it doesn’t involve him running away from me. I blew out a frustrated sigh before I pushed into motion and went back into the lounge. As soon as I showed up back at the lounge alone, the smile on Donna’s face suddenly became a frown as her brows raised suspiciously. Her mo

Chapter: Chapter 21Chapter 21 Sebastian’s point of view “Seb! Seb! Seb wait!” The recognizable voice chanted from my behind as I walked into the restroom. I turned around with the aim to bang the door on his face when his body pushed through and his scent flexed straight for my nostrils. He kept himself close to me as he grabbed me by my shoulder and pushed me into the nearest wall. His face a view of desperation as he scoured me in a longing gaze. “Why are you doing this to me?” His jaw tightened as he quizzed in distress. I looked away from his eyes and down to the hands that were on my shoulder. “Get your hands off me!” I warned in a gentle tone. He dropped the hands, but circled his left one around my neck as he gently nudged his forehead into mine. His hot passionate breaths fanning into my face. “Haven’t you done enough?” His eyes closed as he sniffed in a long breath. “Fuck, I’m gonna go crazy.” His lips edged onto mine as he worked his way into my mouth.I stood there, dumbfounded like a

Chapter: Chapter 20Chapter 20 Ryan’s point of view When I got Donna’s text regarding the task I gave her to set a meeting up between Seb and I, she’d told me about Seb’s date with a client of his, namely Xavier Rodriguez. The weird guy we both met at the governor’s party. Why were they going on a date? Donna didn’t include the details. I’ve gotten only the location, and when Marcelene texted me hi that she just collected my contact from my mother. I knew exactly how I’m going to see Seb tonight. I decided to invite Marcelene out to a night out at the city and she was delighted to accompany me. And so was my mother when I arrived with a car to pick Marcelene up, she has no idea what I’ve done or had in store for her. I can’t wait to see the look on her face when tomorrow comes and she meets with the fate of her schemes. “Where exactly are we going though? I never asked?” Marcelene asked as she fastened her seatbelt around her. Since I wouldn’t like myself a driver, and prefer to drive myself aroun

Chapter: Chapter 19Chapter 19 Sebastian’s point of view I read through the article Donna shoved in my face and force me to go through to believe that Vivian was a liar and that she’s here with a motive. She badly wanted me to sack her, but all I’ve seen or read in here weren’t implicating enough. If anything, they just proved more truths to her words. That she was indeed rich and has everything until she go broke. I’m sure her family wouldn’t publish the decision they took to disown her so the family wouldn’t have a bad stain on them, and she on the other hand wouldn’t like the story out in the happen because of her shame. It’s pretty understandable to why it’s not known that she’s disown or broke. I’ll need more than articles to believe Donna over Vivian’s story. My phone buzzed, and a text came in. I dropped Donna’s phone for her so I could check out the text I received, it was the perfect distraction to be done with Donna’s trouble. Xavier has texted me the address of where he wanted us to mee
