Alexabdru Point of View"Ask Mom all about it, then tell the girls, so they can know what we are against.""Alright." She says, and I watch her leave.This time around, I initiate it, not knowing what exactly I am doing, and when my head is thrown backwards softly, I don't fight it."Expected you." She says, sitting on the bed.I stare at Lily, then at the room, recognizing it, I grew up here.I say nothing, unable to force the words out my mouth."I have used so much magic today, Alexandru, but if you called me here to stare at my face, I'm gonna have to cut this short""What is going on with Adaline?" I blurt, fisting my hands"The only person that can tell you that is Adaline." She says, and she's right, because everyone is just making speculation."Selena believes she is fighting against darkness in her and losing." I confess"I have always liked Selena." Mom nods, and I want to scream."What do I do, Mom?" I whisper"This girl, she's the love of my life, and she has broken me bef
Aleandru Point of View"The last time I saw you, you were asleep, loking all cute and shit, but here you are, how fast the night changes." He says"What can I say? I was born with it in my blood, credits to you."At this, he smiles, and sits in the seat I gesture at."Why are you here?" I say and he frowns."To see my son, reunite my family, after twenty nine years.""Why are you here today?" I amend my question, and he frowns at me."Something happening today?""Yes, Adaline's coronation.""Your soulmate is a Flower?" He says, standing up, and I nod."This was all planned, they cursed you, for history to repeat it's self, you have to let her go."I laugh dryly "Pardon me, Father, If I don't easily let the people I love go.""Do not dare speak to me like that," He snaps, gripping me by the collar"You have no idea what Lily and I went through for you, to be right now, you have absolutely no idea. I am the leader of the Lycans, and yet I cried everyday because my son was taken from me!
Adaline Point of ViewI stare at the mirror, I am standing naked, alone in my room. There's this constant ringing in my ear. Alex's Dad is here, and he looks so happy, in a shy kind of way. He deserves to be happy, and I won't take that from him."Ready?" Adora says, walking in to the room, intruding on the few minutes of solitude I will get today."Does it feels odd, now that Rafe is back, your sister too." I ask, and she freezes, meeting my eyes in the mirror."He is my son, he will always be my son." She says firmly, and I stare at her, through the mirror, knowing she didn't answer my actual question, but the girls walk in with my dress."It's starting in an hour." Mom says, smiling at me.I take the dress from Blu and Lola, and try to put it on, It's red, a first fuck-you to the Ancestors, they wouldn't know what hit them.I struggle to get into the dress, knowing it costs a fortune, and looks so beautiful. It is layered, beaded, and so beautiful, a mix of satin and sequins, the s
Adaline Point of View"So," Gowdie gives me a look."We created the Flowers. Women who could have a little bit of our power, who could be our fist of vengeance, or whatever we want them to do. These women were carefully selected, the one before Lily was an orphan, the one before that was grieving the loss of her daughter, another on was betrayed by her family, and Lily was a spoilt brat.""Vulnerable woman." I say, in realization and disgust."These women were weak, and needed someone, a hand to lean on, an ear to listen, and we became what they needed.""And in return?" I say"They do whatever we want, be at our knees, do whatever we want from them.""In another words, you exploit their weaknesses." I say, shaking my head."You could put it like that, who could blame us? Their weaknesses were easy to exploit, the need to be loved, to be chosen, to never hunger, for power, but you, your weakness is not superficial." Boleyn says and my heart skip a beat."You want to protect your Famil
Adaline Point of View"That's enough." Mom says, shoving her out of the way.I watch as he sits Zoe down, takes her broken hand in her palm, and start to whisper.I smirk, leaning fully on Alex, who places his hand around my waist.Mom whispers continuosly, but nothing happens."You seem to be losing your touch." Lily smiles, going to Mom, and taking Zoe's hand in hers, and this time it pinches a little, just a little.Nothing happens, and the recently united bestfriends stare at me."Adaline!" Mom snaps, and I laugh."What?" Rick says in confusion."Your darling hybrid is counteracting the spells, look like she got some bone to pick with this one." Rafe says, and everyone smiles at me."Allow me." I move out of Alex's grip, and say to Mom and Camille.I stand before Zoe, my heart thundering a little, but no one fakes it better than I do."Up." I say, and she gets up, looking at me as a tear falls off, and that's when I realize that she's just a victim.I take her broken hands in mine
Adaline Point of View"The people who loves you, utterly, irevocably, we'll need their blood, combine it in this jar, let's get started." I say"Are you sure about this, babe?" Alexandru says, and I smile"Am I sure that I want to save you from the clutches of some stupid witches, hell yeah, baby." I say, and he nods, kissing me swiftly."We are helping you, right?" Lola says, but I shake my head."This is a spell I invented, however, I would need a boundary spell, which will need something to channel, something strong." "They can channel us." Elena says, pointing to Alina and I frown."Are you sure?" I ask, looking at Adora, Tony and Alexandru."Yes." "Okay, a boundary spell, to prevent anything or one from breaching the spell while it's in progress."They nod at me, and begin. As an after thought, with a flick of my hand, I put Zoe to sleep and lock her in."Take my blood for Lily," Mom says, and I nod, this will be safe."I will stand for Rafe." Adora says, glancing at him, he no
Adaline Point of View"What do we do about Zoe?" I say, and he looks at me."She's your -- was your bestfriend, you make the decision.""She can stay here? I just really want to keep an eye on her." I say, but frown when he says nothing."Or, I could get her a place in French Quarter, or out of town, but I'll just have to be there most of the times, might stay with her.""Easy baby, she can stay here." He says, hands on my cheek and I nod, relieved."Why do you want her to stay here? I would think you'd hate her, but here you are, avocating for her presence." He says casuallyI smile, wondering if I should tell him the truth, or just lie as usual, I go with the former."When I was with the Ancestors, they predicted her death, she would have died in Romania, because Cyprus was finding ways to kill her, to make it look like an accident.""He used her? Wow, and he wanted to dispose of her, when she is no longer useful. More reasons to make him suffer."I smile at his response, leaning fu
Alexandru Point of View"But we do need to channel something strong." "Channel me." I say, wanting this to be over soon."No, I am stronger." Dad -- Rafe says, and I cock my eyebrows, stronger?"I am stronger than you, Alexandru." He grins at my expression."Don't be so sure about that." I smile."Are we doing this Lily, or is you husband and son going to keep checking who is stronger?" Camille says, and I smile."I want to do this for her, if she's dabbling with dark magic, she'll need external protection." He says, and I nod."Kneel." Mom says to the girls and Camille, they kneel, and Dad lays in their middle.Holding each other's hand, Mom begins chanting. The rest of them take a step back, but I take two steps forward, I need to be able to break the spell incase something happens, it won't be like Adaline's, where I couldn't do anything but watch while she bleeds and scream.The chants intensify, and Mom throws her head backward, screaming the ancient language, and my heart skip
