“So you are out of energy huh?” Elena said looking at her. “If you would have given into Hecta she could have helped you out.” She said taking a drink of her tea. “I thought she had you, but you are one strong mortal.”“She doesn’t deserve me.” Anabel said looking at her. “If it happens again, I will make sure I fight even harder this time.”“Honey where you’re going tonight, you aren’t going to be doing anything but obeying Victor.” She said shaking her head. “Hecta will be summoned, and she will have to decide what she wants to do with you.” She said getting up from the table. “It was nice knowing you Anabel.” She half smiled before she walked out.Anabel looked down at the vial, she wasn’t sure she should drink it. She didn’t want to be under Victor’s control if that is what it was going to be used for. “What is it?” she said looking at Marcus.“I don’t know.” He said shrugging his shoulders. He knew what it was, but he knew if he told her, she wouldn’t drink it, and this whole rit
Hecta walked over to Anabel, she could still feel something about the girl. “She stays alive for now.” Hecta said looking at Victor. “You’ve done well, I thought this was never going to happen.” She said walking over to him and kissing him. “Now that Marcus is gone, I’m all yours.” She giggled.“Good.” Victor said kissing her back. “Now it’s time for our war, we need to be prepared and we need to get to them as soon as we can.” He said shaking his head.“Don’t worry we will.” Hecta said looking back at Anabel. “As soon as she is awake, we’re going to take her to Pandora’s Box, I’m going to release some of my own toys, it’s time for me to show these other demons they are nothing compared to me.” She said walking out of the room and down the hallway.“So you’re going to keep her alive, why didn’t you keep Marcus alive?” Victor asked as they walked into the living room.“Um Elena.” Said almost spitting her wine out. “Hecta!”“Yes Elena I am back, and this time I don’t have a mortal tryin
“Well we will help you figure out where you need to go.” He said handing her a bowl of food. “The Angels are supposed to come tomorrow, maybe I will take you so you can go and see them and see if they can help you.” He said taking a bite of food.Anabel ate her food slowly, she was still sick from even before the ritual. She wasn’t sure if she was still pregnant, it was still early on, so she had to wait on that. If Victor came back for her, she would try and kill him even though their souls were still connected. She would go out in a blaze of glory when she holds onto Victor and drains him of his life.“What are you thinking about Anabel?” he said handing her some bread.“Nothing.” She said shaking her head. “I am just wondering if Victor is going to come back when I have my baby, if I even am still pregnant.” She said looking down at her stomach, she had fat, but there was a small bump forming.“I don’t know.” Nick said shrugging his shoulders. “If you’re pregnant the Angels are goi
“So what are you two doing?” Carlos said looking at the girls. “I think we should head to the house, the twins are going to be happy to see you Anabel.” He half smiled at her, he was glad she was back. She seemed like she was back to her old self, the self he fell in love with.“Well I just got here, and Misty tackled me.” Anabel joked. “But other then that, I don’t know fighting evil and stuff.” She giggled.“Well you’ve done quite well seeing you don’t have any demon any you.” Misty said giggling. “So was it fun having both kinds of powers?” she said looking at Carlos. Carlos shook his head, he didn’t want Anabel wanting to have them both back. He wanted to make sure she didn’t want to be a demon again.“Eh it had it’s fun times, but no I wouldn’t want that.” Anabel said shaking her head. “Not even for a minute.”“Boo.” Misty said with a pouty face.Carlos cleared his throat, he wrapped his hand around her and lead her towards the house. He knew Michael would have a lot of questions
“Is it?” Anabel said shaking her head. “I just don’t like the idea of watching my kids die before I do.” She said looking at Michael. “But if they make it through this then I am glad they are with me, but if they die it’s just going to kill me faster.” She said closing her eyes. “I don’t want to see them die, so you better keep watch on them.”“Anabel you don’t have to worry about them.” Michael said smiling. “They have been training for something like this for a while now, we were just waiting for you to find your way back, now we can finish what you started, and put those demons away forever.” He said wrapping his arm around her. “I knew you would fight hard even after all the demon tricks they pulled on you. You are a strong Soul Anabel Knight.”“Thanks but I don’t feel like I am strong.” Anabel said shaking her head. “I think I need to lay down for a while, my head is spinning, Carlos do you mind if you show me where I can sleep?” she said looking at Carlos.“Yeah.” Carlos said wa
Anabel wasn’t sure what to think, she was a little upset that the Angels didn’t want to hear what she had to say. Even worse she trusted Carlos to wake up her when they were there, and he didn’t. What was he hiding, and why didn’t he want Anabel to know what he was planning or what they were planning.“I still can’t believe you didn’t wake me up, when I told you it was important that I talk to them.” She said walking up the stairs. “I am going to be in my room, I don’t want to see you right now Carlos, and you have made me angry.” She said shaking her head.Carlos stayed downstairs, Anabel walked into her room and slammed the door shut. She felt like she was a prisoner. Maybe not entirely locked down, but she felt like Carlos didn’t want her talking to the Angels, maybe she would kill them being still under the control of Victor, she doubted it though.Walking over to the window, she watched the rain fall, she wanted to go out and play in it, it was the only thing that made her feel w
“You both die together.” He said shaking his head. “That was also another thing I needed to talk to Carlos about, he has to find a book of Victor’s and bring it back here, and hopefully it will contain what we need.” He said getting up from his chair. “You get something to eat, and I will send Misty to get you something to wear tonight, I think it’s time for you to hear from the Council of Angels of what we’re going to be doing.” He said walking out of the room.“Well I guess that solves that.” Carlos said getting up from the chair. “So now you’re going to be included on tonight’s meeting, maybe then you will feel better about what the Angels want to do and why they want to keep you here.” He said walking out of the room.Anabel sat there for a few minutes, Misty stood up. “Come on let’s go and get you something to wear, I have the perfect dress.” She said pulling Anabel out of the chair. “Don’t worry the Angels are going to hear what you want to say, and they might even find some goo
“Don’t worry Carlos I don’t plan on going to Victor.” Anabel said shaking her head. “But if you think he is going to win this, he has another thing coming. I’m not going to let him do anything more to the worlds, and the realms.” She said walking away from him.“Are you sure?” he said shaking his head. “Because he sounded like you wouldn’t have a choice.” He said walking away from her. “I need to go and see a few people, they might be able to help us get out of here and away from Victor.” He said without looking back at the girls.Anabel looked at Misty. “So what is it with him?” she said shaking her head. “I just don’t know if he even knows what he is doing.” She said looking away from her.“I don’t know he’s been crazy lately.” Misty said shrugging her shoulders. “I know he was worried about you, and now this is probably making him crazy, he isn’t sure what to do, and if you’re truly going to be safe.” She said shaking her head. “But on the brighter side at least we know the magic t
“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
