“Lay her there.” Michael said looking at Marcus. Marcus laid her down, Michael looked her over. “That is bleeding pretty badly.” He said touching it. “I don’t know if we’re going to be able to save her I am sorry.” He said trying to heal it, he was only able to slow the bleeding down.“So this is it?” Marcus said looking down at Anabel. “I get to watch her die again, I get to watch Victor take someone else from me.” He said wanting to cry, but he knew he wasn’t able to.“I am not sure what we can do Marcus.” Michael said shaking his head. “If she was a demon this wouldn’t be like this, but she knew this when she took on Victor.” He said trying to heal her again, but it wasn’t working.“I don’t think you’re going to be able to heal her after this.” Marcus said taking her hand. “I know Hecta is trying to heal her, but I have a feeling she is far too weak to do such a thing.” He said looking up at Michael. “Just keep trying, she is dies then we know she wasn’t supposed to make it through
Carlos didn’t say anything, he wanted to continue to yell at Anabel, but he knew it wouldn’t do any good and he would just make her want to run even more. Carlos sat down at the table and watched Anabel, he could see she was thinking really hard. He wanted to touch hand, and tell her everything was going to be okay, but he didn’t know if it really was this time.Taking a deep breath, he got out of his chair and walked out of the kitchen, he still wanted some time to think, he even wanted to turn himself over to Victor to see if he would spare her life.“Please don’t worry about me Carlos.” Anabel said walking out onto the front porch. “I know what you think about me, and that’s okay.”“Do you really know what I think about you?” Carlos said shaking his head. “I’ve been looking for you all this time, and you seem to think I don’t care about you.” He said looking at her. “I’ve been tearing my heart to pieces trying to see if there was a way to please you, so you want to stay here with u
Anabel wasn’t sure what to say. She didn’t want to lose her life at all, she wanted to fight Victor. She knew she could kill him, but she also knew she would lose her life in the end. “I have to do what I have to do.” She said shaking her head. “I don’t think I am outmatched because he made sure our souls were bound.”“So you are saying you are as strong as Victor?” Jim said looking at him.“Yes.” Anabel said shaking her head “The only way he can be killed is if I kill him.” She said taking a deep breath.“Well that makes me feel a lot better.” Jim said shaking his head. “Finally someone that can hurt him enough that he wont want to come back here.” He said half smiling. “Maybe I should get the Elders to help us, I know they are tired of Victor as well.”“No I rather not.” Anabel said shaking her head. “I don’t want Victor to know I am here.” She said shaking her head. “Please you are just going to put yourself in danger if you tell anyone that I am here.”“Well alright.” Jim said loo
“I don’t know Marcus, Carlos always wants to get in the way of things, he is the reason I wasn’t found in time, and all the stuff you did to me was done.” She said looking away from him. “Don’t worry I don’t hold anything against you, I just want to feel like I matter again.”“Anabel you do matter at least to me.” Marcus said kissing her. “I know you think I am lying and that I will turn you over to Victor, but I promise I wont.”“Can we get out of here?” Anabel said looking at the bodies in the chair. “I think I am going to be sick if we don’t leave.” She said walking to the door. She put her hood on and waited for Marcus.Marcus walked out to the town, the rain clouds settled in, but the rain didn’t come. ‘I don’t know if we are going to be safe here.” Marcus said wrapping his arm around Anabel. “We better get out of here.”“No Marcus we need to lay low, the less we use our magic the less he knows where we are.” Anabel said shaking her head.Marcus wrinkled his nose. “Fine we can pl
Anabel rubbed her neck, she didn’t want to give into anyone. She would fight Victor even harder than she did Marcus. She always felt close to Marcus for whatever reason, she knew he wouldn’t kill her just to make a point. Victor on the other hand would kill her, and he would enjoy it a lot more then she would.Closing her eyes, she needed to make a new plan. She would have to figure out a way to Marcus, get them out of the realm, and close the next one so Victor couldn’t follow them through, and if he did, then they would have to move to the next one. They would run until Victor had lost them.“Don’t be thinking too hard Anabel.” Victor said walking back into the room. “Don’t worry I am going to bring Marcus here to make you happy, but first I want him to get hurt a little, I mean he continues to betray me, so I have no other choice but to do it to him.”“Oh you have choices.” She said shaking her head.“So you’re saying I could either kill him now or later right?” he said kneeling do
Victor looked at her for a long minute before he answered. “Do you really think I care about having people to talk to, or having slaves?” he said shaking his head. “Everyone is going to be a demon, and I am going to make sure it happens. When I am done, you Anabel are going to get me into Heaven so I can take my right place where I belong.”“You don’t belong in Heaven.” Anabel said shaking her head. “I would rather die then help you get there.”“You will be dying Anabel.” Victor said walking over to her. “Don’t make me regret allowing you to walk around freely, now I will go and get Marcus and I will see how well you behave now that you have your two lovers here.” He said disappearing.“Great now he is going to bring Marcus here. And it’s going to bind me even more.” She said shaking her head.“What are you talking about Anabel?” Carlos said shaking his head in confusion.“He is bringing everything that I love, he is going to use you to get me to do what he wants.” She said shaking he
“How about getting us out of here?” Anabel said looking around. “I know I made a mistake coming her alone, but I thought I could make him stop all of the things he is planning on doing.” Anabel said shaking her head. “I thought he would take me and the baby somewhere, and we wouldn’t have to worry about him hurting more people.”“I’m a demon, I’m going to hurt people no matter what.” Victor said coming into the room with some food. “Since my wife has been coming through you, I think you need to make sure you eat enough otherwise you are going to collapse and you might even die.” He said setting the tray in front of her. “I kicked Carlos out of here, and blocked them from entering again. That means I cannot leave either.” He said rolling his eyes before he walked out of the room.Anabel ate some of the food, but she really wasn’t hungry, Marcus took the tray out. Anabel got out of bed and walked into the room where Carlos used to be. She looked around hoping he wasn’t there, but half w
Anabel wiped her lips, she didn’t want to be anywhere near Victor and his naked ass or his kisses. She didn’t want to see him again, but knew he was right he would find her wherever she was, and she couldn’t do anything about it. She would stay in the realm she was and hope Victor would leave her alone, and the Angels would stop trying to find her.“You are here alone?” Legion said appearing. “I figured Victor would at least have a couple of his pets following you around.” He said walking towards her. Three demons appeared behind Anabel. “Ah there they are.” He said laughing.“I don’t even know they were following me.” Anabel said shaking her head. “How do I know they aren’t yours?” she challenged.Legion went to grab her, two of the demons grabbed her, and one attacked Legion, he stopped attacking him when Legion backed away far enough. The two demons let go of Anabel. “How is that for proof?” he said walking towards her, the demon that attacked him stayed near Anabel.“This all coul
“I didn’t come here to fight, but if that is what you want?” Meko said summoning a fireball and throwing it at Victor, Victor dodged it, he hit Meko with some different kind of magic.Anabel grabbed ahold of Marcus’ arm, she wasn’t sure what she could do to help them win this war. She knew Meko was going to try and kill her and he would probably try and kill Victor too. She wanted to try and summon some kind of magic, but her body felt too weak.Another explosion near Anabel forced her away from the group. Sin appeared and caught her before she hit the ground. “Got ya!” he growled.Anabel tried to get out of his hold, but he held her tight. “I don’t think so.” He giggled. “I know Meko has lots of plans for you, and this time we’re going to make sure he can finish it.” He said looking down at her. “Right now you’re going to watch your friends die, and then you are going to do what we ask.” He said as more demons appeared joining in on the fight.Something hit Sin in the back, he releas
Anabel didn’t say anything, she wasn’t sure what Meko would do. She wasn’t even sure Meko cared about the baby or anything. “So are you thinking Meko wants to hurt our baby and doesn’t care if she lives or dies?” she said clearing her throat.“I don’t know.” Victor said shaking his head. “I know if I was him, I would use her anyways she will be valuable, so he might keep you alive until she is born.” He said looking at her. “But if he just wants to kill me, then he will try and kill you.”Anabel didn’t say anything, she didn’t want to think about death and everything that came with it. She knew her friends would continue on without her, she wasn’t even sure they were still looking for her. Anabel hoped Misty was working on something to get them back together so they could fight the demons together, but she wasn’t sure if Misty knew where she was.“Well we could always wing it.” Marcus said clearing his throat. He didn’t like the uneasiness from everyone. “I mean I am sure Meko is prob
“Well Marcus you wont be going with her, and yes I will have my eyes on her. She isn’t going to be harmed, not unless she wants to be.” He said looking back at Anabel. “I know you are more then curious to find out where I want to send you.”Anabel didn’t say anything, she didn’t want to see where she would send her. Hell she wanted to send Victor somewhere else, but she knew she didn’t have the power to do that. She looked at Victor and then Marcus. “I wont go anywhere unless Marcus is with me.” She said shaking her head.“Well what would be the fun in that?” Victor said shaking his head. “I wanted to show you what I can do to scare you, but if you want your boyfriend to go with you, he’s going to make sure you don’t get scared.” He said rolling his eyes. “I guess I am going to have to send you off alone when you aren’t expecting it.” He giggled a little.“I doubt you’re going to be able to do that.” Anabel said shaking her head. “And even if you do, I am sure the Angels or myself can
“So what you think we’re just going to fight for you?” Anabel said shaking her head. “If that is the case, you better be prepared to lose.”“I don’t lose Anabel.” Victor said walking over to her with some punch. “Here I need you to drink this, so you can have at least some kind of chance when I need you.” He said letting go of the cup when Anabel took it.“What if I don’t want to be a part of this?” she said looking down at the cup. “You know I could just not do as you ask, and then you are going to have more issues.” She said looking at Marcus, he had a look of worry.“Well Ms. Knight if you continue to test my patience, I am going to show you just what I can do.” Victor growled. “I really don’t have time for your bullshit, so ow if you don’t mind drink it and shut up.” He said squeezing his eyes closed. “I am going to force you to do everything and that means giving me my daughter.”“I am not going to allow you to do that.” Marcus said taking the cup from Anabel before she had a cha
Once on the other side, Anabel wasn’t sure where they were. Marcus and Victor walked through next. “I don’t know what you are doing Anabel, but I hope you have something up your sleeve, you know once we’re here we cannot leave.” Victor said shaking his head.“Well I wish I would have known that before I did this.” Anabel said shaking her head. “But no I do not have a plan, he was going to kill you, and well I don’t want to die, so I had no choice.”“No she didn’t.” Meko said walking with two demons. “Welcome to my world.” He said looking at Anabel. “You surprise me Anabel, Marcus gave you a way out and yet you still linger with him, you do realize you’re not a demon right?” he said walking over to her.“Yes I know.” Anabel said looking at Victor. “I also have to protect my life since he was careless in his spell.” She said shaking his head. “So yes I have to be here, I want to make sure he doesn’t get out of hand and put my life in danger.”“Smart move I think Anabel.” He said turning
It seemed like hours went by, nothing happened. Marcus returned with a few other demons, more demons started to show up. “Alright I think we have enough so if he wants to play we can make him suffer.” Victor said getting up from the chair. “Anabel try and stay away from the other demons that are coming here, they want you.” He said looking at Marcus. “Make sure you keep her safe, if she gets taken I will be mad.” He warned.“Don’t worry he isn’t going to get close enough to her to take her.” Marcus said shaking his head. “I will die before I allow that to happen.”“Good.” Victor said looking at Hecta. “If she gets hurt you are to make sure she is shielded until Marcus gets her out of here, we don’t need my daughter falling into the wrong hands, they are going to do a lot of bad things to her.”“Well you have a lot of time.” Anabel said shaking her head. “I am not due for a while, and I doubt he is going to want to take me until maybe the last few weeks.” She tried to make the situatio
“Your boyfriend is too paranoid.” Hecta said shaking her head. “I mean I don’t blame him, but you cannot do my rituals so it is no sense that we change places again. I have helped the Angels and got them involved into our war, we shall see if they come and aide us.” Hecta said pushing open the door, she walked in. “Here.” She said handing Anabel her dress. “You will look beautiful in it.”Anabel changed into her robe, she looked at herself for a long time before she came back into the room. Hecta half smiled when she saw Anabel. “I told you, you would look good in that dress. I am glad I picked it.” She said walking towards Anabel.“Thanks.” Anabel said looking down at herself. “I don’t know why you want to include me in your rituals, why?” she said looking at Hecta. “If you think this is going to change the way I feel about demons, it’s not.”“I don’t expect it to do anything.” Hecta said shaking her head. “But if it does change your mind, I think that would be a good thing.” She smi
Anabel didn’t say anything, she didn’t want to go round and round with Victor. She wanted to be back with the Angels, so they could make a plan for the pending war. She wasn’t sure if the Angels wanted to help with the war, she hoped they did because Victor brought Anabel back into the picture.“So why did you take Marcus from me?” Anabel said looking at Marcus, but he didn’t turn to see what Victor would say. He didn’t say anything, Victor just drank his wine and watched what Marcus was doing.“Why aren’t you answering me?” Anabel said shaking her head. “I know you did it because you wanted some kind of control over me, but how does it feel that you don’t have any control over me?” she said folding her arms across her chest.“I don’t know Anabel how does it feel to have anything?” Victor said looking at her. “Because I can take everything you have and put you somewhere, where you cannot do anything, but deal with torture and pain, would you like me to show you that?” he said getting
Nightfall came, and it started to get cold in the dungeon. No one came down to get her that night, she curled up in a ball and fell asleep. The next day she was up before Carlos was, she didn’t talk to him. He felt bad she was still down there, but she survived the night and he hoped they would come and get her.“I’m sorry.” Carlos said clearing his throat. “I thought he was going to come down and get you, I guess he really is being a dick.” He said shaking his head.“I’m fine Carlos.” Anabel said without looking at him. “I know you want to be strong for both of us, but please just be quiet.” She said shaking her head. “I will make it through until God comes for me, until then just be quiet.”“I still am sorry that I haven’t been able to help you.” He said walking over to the bars. “You can hate me for this if we make it through.”“Shut up.” Anabel growled. Her hands started to glow, she felt something coming through her. “What is this?”“I don’t know.” Carlos said looking at her. “Yo
