Adaline Point of View"So we laid a trap for them, got our plan in motion. We spoke to our witches, and for the first time, we killed a Vampire, Demon, and a Wolf, we burnt them alive and boiled their bloods from inside, we could have taken control of them all, but this was a trap, remember?" Gowdie looks at me, and I see something in her eyes, but I don't break the look, until she smiles and continue where her friends stopped."They came to us like we wanted, and united, they slaughtered the four of us, draining our bodies of blood, tearing us to pieces, how stupid of them, we didn't even put up a fight. It was all a ritual, so there, we were slaid, and their people were slaid, we rose.""Rose? You were dead." I say, sitting straight, looking at them."Before the killing, we had cursed the land, some countereffect, and active spells, so when they slaughetered us, they couldn't leave, and were trapped, there, the other witches came out, strenghtened the spell that kept them trapped w
Adaline Point of ViewI scoff "If you can, you would have, do not threaten me.""Yes, we shouldn't, what we could do, well," Boleyn laughs "We could tear Zoe limb from limb, I see the gears turning in Buckland and Ronan's head, they already want to dispose her, just thinking of the right way, make it look like an accident.""I see the thoughts she has, her guilt, and pain, how she so badly want to escape, and there's something else I see clearly, her death, nothing will stop that."My Heart skip a beat, and my face probably betrays me because she smiles."Or we could pay a visit to your new friends, the little witches and the tiny wolves, keep the wolves, forever in a state where they turn, the breaking of bones, the agony, imagine Alina in that state, what will Alexandru think?""We could also shun the witches from their covens, erase them from existence and trap in limbo, maybe Camille, Adora, or even the oh so precious Alexandru, he is isn't skilled in occulumency like you are.""
Adaline Point of View"Thank you very much guys, I owe my life to you all, thank you for saving me, again, but I really need to sleep and eat something." I say, getting up, only for my feet to shake, and I would have fallen, if Alex wasn't glued to my side."You could come home with me, Aurora," Mom says "Dora and I can nuture you back to health.""Thanks, but I'll stick to Alex." I say, and his hand tighten on my waist."They must have called you for a reason, didn't call you to tell you a story." Elena says, and I try not to freeze."What are you hiding from us, Adaline?" Dad saysEverything, I wanted to say, instead, I say nothing, griting my jaw."Rafe is coming." I say to Lily and Alex who stiffens with me in his hold."A lot of things happened there, I got to know the fucking Ancestors, and they are really powerful, but at least, now, I know what we are up against, They are working with Romania, to create Vampires, a specie they destroy." I say, seeing their shocked looks."They
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
