Chapter 88: BlitzHerod’s Point of View“Do you regret everything?”I didn't bother to look behind me because I already knew who spoke, it was Vashti Redezdale. The girl who had the same destiny as mine.“No”, I whispered, answering his questions as I looked at Calliope’s back.“Why would I regret it if it's for her? I am willing to do everything just for her”, This time, I look at her and I gave her a bitters smile.She maybe a b*tch to everyone but this girl is too good for her own.It is not her fault that she trusted that man so much that she was with her at the moment. “But she's strong, I know that she can protect herself and you have your choice, unlike me”, she said. She didn't understand.“You don't understand, Vashti. You don't know how powerful that man is. In just a snap of his fingers, he can kill anyone he wants”, I said. Yes, I have a choice, I had my choice but in exchange, she will die. This is the only choice I have and I am doing this for her safety.“Hayst, that ass
Chapter 89: ExistHerod’s Point of ViewThey were all screaming in pain and it was echoing in my ears. I can see the child crying asking for help, afraid that he might hurt and worse, die. I looked at Calliope and she was looking around her and she was not moving. I looked beside her and Vashti seemed to be shocked also. Damn.I ran towards them as I quickly pulled their hands covering them from the arrows that kept on coming, I pulled them to the part where no arrow could be seen as I heard a loud roar. SOme of the people have transformed into their werewolves. “Stay here, okay?”I asked them and Calliope nodded while Vashti was not on her own self.“Vashti, do you understand?!”I asked her, raising my voice and she looked so startled but at the same time she nodded. I look at the other werewolves who are now fighting. I look above and they are starting to get away. Based on their physics and ability, I think they are vampires. What are they doing here? Why did they attack the fores
Chapter 90: Who“Where are you going?”Vashti stopped me from leaving when I decided to see what was happening.“I have to help them, especially the children!”I answered her and I started to ruin the dress that I was wearing. It was just a hindrance. “But Herod said that we should stay here!”, she said frowning and I saw how afraid she was.“I can't, you stay here”, I said as I didn't bother to look at her. I focus on taking off this freaking dress and take off the sandals that I am wearing. I threw it out to I don't know where before I pulled the weapon in my legs. I put it in my legs a while ago for emergency purposes and thank God I did. I slice the gown using the knives that I made.“Are you crazy? It's dangerous! We should leave!”, she said, unaware of the situations around us. Everyone is in danger and they might die if we don't do anything.“Let's go!”, she said as she tried to hold my hand dragging me so that we could get away from here.“Vashti, they need help and I can't tu
Chapter 91: I Am YoursZipporah’s Point of View“What took you so long?”Shiloh greeted me using his oh so annoying face.“We've got lost”, I answered without looking at him as I was staring into the man's eyes that I have been admiring for so long.“Set aside your feelings Zipporah, we are in the battle and remember”, he pauses for a while, that's why I look at him curiously waiting for his next words.“He is our enemy”, he whispered. He was seriously looking at me like he was threatening me. Tsk, this guy.“You don't have to tell me. I know it very well”, I said as I picked the needles in my side.This is my weapon, a five inches long needle. I looked back at the guy I love, and he was staring at me. Did he recognize me? Of course not, stop assuming things Zipporah. You've met for how many times and in those times, he didn't even care. The looks in his eyes, I know that he he wasn’t really care, about my presence and who I am. In his eyes, I am nothing but you know what's hurt the mo
Chapter 92: Long TimeI was contemplating my decisions, whoever I choose, the other one will die.“Ahira, go inform them about Herod '', I said and she was looking at me so confused. I have no choice, we have to part our ways to save both of them.“Tell them that he was not the enemy”, I added nervously as I looked back in front.“What? No way! I will not leave you Calliope '', she answered me like she will never change her mind.“Ahira, listen to me. Herod saved me, you have to help him. Please”, I whispered to her as I held her hands. I looked into her eyes to let her know that I was telling the truth. “I will go to Elon and at the same time, you will go to Shiloh and Miss Zipporah, inform them that the traitor who lives in the Cravens manor threatened Herod that's why he was doing this”, I whispered to her and damn it. It looked like she was really thinking about what she would do.“But Calliope—”, I stopped her squeezing her hands.“Ahira, I am okay. I will be okay, I promise”, i
Chapter 93: Without MeI smiled when I finally saw the Morris mansion, a sign that I am almost there.“Elon!!!”. I called his name and I saw him raise his head. Now that the sun has fully risen, his bruises became more visible and his face is starting to bloat.“Ca–Calliope”, he called my name and I quickly ran towards him. I look around and there are no signs of knights. They must be on the battlefield to aid some werewolves.“Wha-What is happening?”, he asked me while I was untying him.“They were here, they came to help us' ', I informed him and after that, I didn't hear anything from him.I hug him tightly when I finally release the rope surrounding his body.“Let's get out of here”, I said to him and he just nodded. I noticed the sword not far from him and I knew that it was Elons sword. I fastly walked to get it and after I picked it I helped him to stand up properly.“Are you okay?”I asked him when I heard him groan and when I looked at him, he was closing his eyes tightly. It
Chapter 94: HomeShe pulled the trigger once again and this time it was followed by one and she looked so surprised when I stopped the bullet coming from me.And what the hell? I also don't know how I did that, I stopped the bullet using the strings in my knives and this is the first time I did that perfectly. Master Aeneas taught me that defense using th chains in my weapon, but now that I am just using a fabric surprise me, It is just that, my own hands move on their own. I waved my hands in a circular motion and the bullets came inside. I look at the bullets and these kinds of bullets can kill a vampire with a single one.I heard her scoff like she didn't want what she saw.“What pure luck you've got there”, she commented and I didn't bother to answer her. I must focus on this one, I need concentration. Concentrate Calliope!“Lets see if your luck can make it”, she retorted as he pulled another gun, but this one is kind of different and I think this won't be so easy.I don't know
Chapter 95: TraitorZipporah's Point of ViewI composed myself after a while after he spoke those words.“Surrender now if you still want to get a good life”, I said, trying to speak properly as I looked into his eyes.“Sorry, but I can not do that”, he answered me but I was focused on his face. As usual, you cannot see anything but coldness and fearlessness.“Do not make excuses Gi–whoever you are”, I uttered and I saw a glimpse of pain in his eyes. That is the first time I saw some feeling in those golden eyes. “It's Herod”, he said and I stopped again. I was staring at him as I was surprised to know his real name.“What—What?”, I asked him, still confused. He chuckled a little before he answered me, I think I am looking so dumb right now. And how the hell can he laugh like that in the middle of the battle? Is he not afraid of me? Huh! He should be!“I am Herod. My name is Herod”, he gave me a sly smile but I am not happy with that as his smile cannot even reach his eyes. Why is he
