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
Chapter 96: Love For MeAhira’s Point of View“Name yourself”, I ask the woman who gets in my way through Lord Shiloh and Miss Ziporah.“You don't need to know”, she answered me and I was taken aback when she vanished into thin air and after that, someone kicked me from behind me. Shit!I looked carefully at the logo on the cloak she was wearing, “Are you one of the members of the council?”, I asked for the second time. I didn't mind the hit that I've got from her since it was not that really strong,“Why do you have so many questions?!”, she raised her voice as she stared at me deathly. And in return I raised my eyebrow.“It is because you haven't answered any of my questions, idiot!”, I replied before I defended myself using my foot when he tried to kick me once again. Girl! This woman is so fast! Perks of being a vampire eh. “Because I don't wanna talk to someone as useless as you!”, he said that made me irritated. What?“Come again?”, I ask in disbelief.“Why do I have to fight s
Chapter 97: Black Smoke“Give me the cure! The antidote!”I commanded her but she just laughed in return. My head is spinning and I can't properly see and I have to do something! I should be sane so that I can give Elon medical attention.I am still hugging Elon and what made me feel in despair is how he weighed. I know that he has already lost his consciousness and I am afraid that he might die in my hands.“E—Elon”, I whispered to his ears as I kept on crying, “Hold on huh?”I said as I hugged him tightly, “Don't you dare die in my hands!”, I said as I shook him a little.I am losing my hope as my head starts to spin and I am close to closing my eyes. My body is starting to fall but it stops as I feel someone hold my waist. I am hugging Elon's head as I want to feel him even without his presence. “I'm sorry, I'm late”, someone whispered and even though I don't have any strength left in me, I tried to open my eyes. And I met a golden eye that is so familiar to me and it was not Gideo
Chapter 98: EyesZipporah's Point of View“Damn you Aziel!”, I shouted when he tried to throw his daggers at me.“My pleasure”, he said sarcastically while bowing down like a royal.“Oh! I have an idea!”, he said and the way he smirks, I already knew that I wouldn't like it.“It's boring since all you have to do is to defend yourself, Zipporah. What if…You tried to attack Herod?”, he suggested it was just a simple opinion he got there.Herod is looking at me with his eyes pleading, he didn't stop from rAziel is controlling him, tackling me and breaking me.“Kill me, Zipporah”“I know you can do it”“You are strong”“It will be easy if you won't put limit to your actions”He kept on saying those words while holding a sword, I don't know where did he get that but Aziel is controlling him that is out of his will so tell me? How could I hurt him when he wasn't doing anything?“Zipporah”, Aziel asked me and that is the most idiotic thing that I have done, the biggest mistake that I have ma
Chapter 99: Die For YouZipporah’s Point of View“You should know your place, Zipporah”, Aziel retorted and everything went past when Herod and I both attacked each other. I groaned in pain when I gots cuts from his swords.But I don't have any time to complain. Shit! This is what I am saying! I might hurt this guy for pete's sake!“I–Im sorry”, he uttered and I gave him a smile as I nodded to say that it was okay.“Oops, sorry”, I playfully said when he got stabbed by me in his arm and he just chuckled.We may look so exuberant but I know that deep inside, we are both scared and nervous at the same time. “You guys are taking me so lightly huh?”Aziel asked us as he throwed his dagger between us and I exerted my strength so that I could avoid it and Herod did the same.“Now”, Aziel whispered but since we are the only three who have been left in this area because the others have already evacuated, we can hear that properly.This time, he looked so serious that I think he was ready to k
