CHAPTER 10

LENA.

Mate? That was impossible. I sat up for a moment and stared at him, long and hard.

He took a puff and turned to look at me. His perfectly arched brows lifted in askance. "Staring like the others? I thought you were different?"

Frowning, I took the cigarette from his hand and took a few puffs. "What's wrong with staring at you?"

"Nothing at all. Sometimes, I feel comfortable and most times, I feel my skin crawl,"

Scoffing, I shook my head and took another puff before handing it back to him. "You feel your skin crawl. That's really funny,"

"Funny? How so?"

"You believe you're special. I don't know if you are and I don't care. You're just a fine specimen and trust me, everyone is going to stare, including the boys,"

"I don't think it's about my looks," He said with a shrug. The cigarette hung off his fingers.

"Then what do you think it's about? Your ego?"

"Ego? Nah. I just think I am special,"

"Narcissist much?"

He chuckled to himse

    CHAPTER 11 LEAH. I was taken by surprise. I flew out of my seat and Trevor followed suit. He had been beside me all morning, begging me to help him make Lena talk to him. This was a terrible situation and I wouldn't have let him help but she had to be taken to the sick bay. "Trevor, we are taking her to the sickbay, okay?" He stood, frozen to the spot as he watched Lena's pale body sprawled on the floor. I had just fallen to my knees, right beside my best friend when I realized that Trevor was still standing a few feet away from me. I looked up at him, glaring with everything I had in me. If glares could kill, he would have collapsed to the floor. "You fucktard! Didn't you hear what I said?" He blinked several times and stuttered and rushed towards me. "I'll lift her up. Don't worry," Standing to my feet, I watched as he lifted her up with ease. We rushed down the empty hallway, towards the staircase that led to the second floor. It was quite a hassle for

    CHAPTER 12 LENA. My eyes fluttered open. Looking around, I realized I was somewhere else. Infact, I was out of this world. I looked around me to see that I was surrounded by plains. My skin was pricked by the low grasses I lay on. Pushing myself up my feet, I felt a wave of dizziness hit me but I was able to control myself from falling. I walked a little distance, hoping to see a road or a house. Anything to let me know that I was close to civilization but there was none. Nothing. I could see nothing but plains and small bills that were dotted with grasses. "Where the hell am I?" I began to stumble my way over the tiny hill. I missed a footing, hitting a rock I hadn't been quick enough to see. I stumbled down the hill. There was no way to stop as it was sloping and smooth. Finally, I hit solid ground. I groaned in pain and sat up to check the scratches I sported from the very strange fall from above. Just then, something hit my nose. It was the smell of iron.

    CHAPTER 13 LEAH. This was absolutely impossible. Hell, Luke was my mate so what the hell was going on right now? I took a few steps back and shook my head like I was trying to clear some sort of charm that had been cast on me because that was what it felt like. Yet, my wolf kept whispering the same words into my ears. Mate. Mate. Mate. Damon was definitely one of the most handsome male in Willow High right now. The hottest, even and the only person who didn't seem to be affected by his looks and charms was Lena. Though I had a boyfriend and a mate who was Luke, I had shown a bit of interest. I mean, he was really attractive. Who wouldn't fantasize a little about this god-like being standing before me. "L—Leah," I stuttered and cleared my throat, blushing slightly that I was this way with him. "Leah," He said and nodded his head. "You look quite familiar," I frowned slightly. "How? We've never met face to face before. This is like our first time," He lo

    CHAPTER 14 LEAH. Luke had class so we spent little time together. While I was with him, I kept zoning out and blocking out most of what he was saying. All I could think of was the encounter I had with Damon. It felt strange. I went to my next class and for the rest of the time before lunch, I was so lost in class. It was unusual for me to be this distracted. As soon as the bell rang, I picked my purse and walked straight to the sickbay. I met Luke on my way there. As soon as he saw me, a smile covered his face. "We meet again, beautiful," I looked up at him with a smile but I felt empty on the inside. His once beautiful green eyes didn't look all that and his hair, I felt it was better a bit longer and falling over his face or piled up in a low ponytail. I shook my head. I was thinking of Damon again. We walked past the lockers and climbed up the steps, hand in hand. We were the It couple. The school's prom King and Queen. Why was I going to let some random new st

    CHAPTER 15 LENA. "She's dead! She's dead!" I sat frozen in my seat, immobile and unable to make sense of what was happening or why she was yelling and crying about somebody being dead. I probably had a brain distortion for a minute and when she crumpled to the ground, I felt my feet move again. My chair screeched loudly against the monochromatic tiled floors and I rushed over to where she was on the floor, sobbing and hitting her chest. No one had moved. They were all still staring at her. Oh well, it was the weird Alexa who had a racoon for a pet which she brought to class in a glass box and a depressed and suicidal friend who was going to die soon anyways. But that wasn't the way I saw her. I had seen her a few times. Noticed how she stared at me while I walked through the hallways with Leah clinging to me. Noticed how she had whispered into her friend's ear and how the girl with blue coloured hair and multiple piercings and a scary gothic look nodded with a smirk.

    CHAPTER 16 LENA. There was something distinctive about this whole thing. The mark on her body was eerily similar to the one I had seen on that of my mother. Slowly, I proceeded to push her colorful hair back to get a better view of the very strange marks on her neck. Dark. Veiny lines. Looking like she was bitten but there was no fang mark to show that. Just lines on her neck. It disappeared into her shirt and my fingers pushed her neckline to see that the lines still ran towards her back. Maybe I hadn't seen it on my mother because she had been laying on her back. Heck, I had no idea about anything like this. I had just seen the mark and thought it was something else. I turned to the nearest person standing beside me. It was Trevor. I hated to be the person to ask him for help but I needed to see this mark. "Trevor." He turned to me with immediate effect. "Yes?" "I need your help," I said and beckoned him over. He fell to his knees beside me and Leah drew close

    CHAPTER 17 LENA. Vice Principal Agatha and a few other teachers came into the scene with the paramedics right after we left. We didn't want to be seen or asked questions as we had our own plans to make. Yes, we were sorry for her but the faster we solved this mystery, the better for whoever was next in line to be killed. Well, there was no class for the rest of today. It had been announced and we all knew it was because of Mereba's death and even if they didn't, a lot of people were going to miss classes anyway. Luke and Leah had gone to get snacks and drinks for us as we had missed lunch for this. I sat in the empty classroom, noticing how awkwardly Trevor moved. I knew he wanted to talk to me and was afraid to do so. Burying my attention into my phone, I stared at the zoomed in photo of Henshaw's body. I stared at the marks till they were like imprints in my brain. I was sure I was never going to forget it again. Trevor cleared his throat and before he spoke, I r

    CHAPTER 18 LENA. Gina's home was quite far from school. She lives with her father on the outskirts of Willow Town. They had moved two years ago after the death of her mother. She had died of a fast spreading blood cancer that wasn't detected on time. It had been hard on Beta Reinhardt and Gina. Really hard that they had to sell off their large beautiful house for a smaller one and ever since they moved, Gina, who used to be a social butterfly, suddenly stopped attending events. We thought it was only going to last for a while. I mean, she was grieving her mother's death. But it's been a year since she attended any social gatherings. She came to school and missed some days off, calling in sick. It was strange. This sickness that she couldn't tell us about. Also how her father who was nice and open to everyone suddenly shut everyone out. We rarely visited and whenever we were lucky to, we were always timed. After trying a few more times, we stopped. I am still worried

    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 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 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 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 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 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 121 LENA. Everything on my mind right now tethered towards ending all of this and defeating Metheus. I couldn't process anything other than that and even if a tiny bit of me still felt something for him, I decided to process those feelings first before saying anything. "So what do we do now?" I asked as I kick started the engine. "Uhm, we should see your father before doing anything else. He's missed you." I gave him a hard look. "If we do not do this now, I don't know when we will. Someone else is going to die." A look of hurt flashed in his eyes but it was gone as soon as it came. He nodded. "I wasn't planning on killing anyone after that but you're right." "Where are we driving to?" I asked as I slowly backed away before making a turn in the middle of the road. "And know that if you lead me down the wrong road and try to kill me, I'll rip you apart before you blink." He's not going to harm you. "I don't care!" I snapped back at her, not minding

    CHAPTER 120 DAMON. We were seated in her car now. It had taken a lot for her to let me sit in the passenger seat. What hurt the most was how she avoided me when I tried to touch her. It felt like she was repulsed by me and it hurt really bad. It wasn't her fault anyway. I had brought this on myself. I had hurt her terribly and I knew she wasn't going to ever forgive me. Hell, I wasn't going to forgive myself for putting her through too much pain. Her fingers were wrapped around the steering wheel and her knuckles had turned white from having to grip it tightly. Once again, it was my fault. I wasn't even going to blame her for something I did. I wanted to reach out to her. I wanted to touch her so bad. I had planned a lot for her return. I had made a lot of collages of both of us and we had even set up a surprise party for her when she returned. I had set up a date for us both together before I took her back to my place. But today of all days, tragedy struck and I cou

    CHAPTER 119 LENA. Why did everything seem to turn sour on my return? From finding out that Gamma Fred had died to meeting Alpha Lance who had lost all hope in this cause and seemed not to care. He had looked like he was waiting for the downfall of Willow Pack and now...Damon? It had to be a dream. I shook my head and tried clearing my head but he was still standing before him, shock written all over his face and for the first time, I saw who he really was. For the first time, it clicked. It all started to make sense. The dark aura, the confusion that had come with him. It was all starting to manifest right now and I couldn't find my Damon anymore. I didn't see the boy I was in love with. All I could see was a murderer. A beast. A fucking killer and a demon. I tried to speak but my words got caught in my throat. My eyes darted over to the dead bodies. The amber glow of the streetlights around it burnished against the pale skin of the dead bodies, making them look ethe
