“Yes, let’s test it.” Draven nodded, jutting his head forward and turning to the people with a broad smile.“Vampires, faes, werewolves, and phoenixes prove to this being of chaos that you can’t be blinded by cunning words and deceits. Prove your loyalty. Prove that your eyes are opened and you know the truth. If you are on my side, the parliamentarians side, the side of truth and loyalty, stand up. Stand tall and proud.” He announced, raising his hand.The people shared looks between themselves and talked in hushed tones. Seconds turned to minutes, and not a single person rose up.“Come on, don’t be shy to stand for what’s right. You know the truth.” He encouraged as his brows creased and his smile twitched.‘You’re right, Draven. They know the truth.’ Layla thought as she gazed at the crowd.He said more words— anything in his vocabulary— to get them up to their feet to stand by his side. Nobody stood. Though some shuffled on their seats and others avoided looking at him, no one sho

‘I c-can’t… I c-can’t do it. I c-can’t.’ Layla thought as tears dropped down her face from her only working eye.Her body was sprawled on the ground, littered with burns and cuts that refused to heal. Her bodysuit was just a bunch of threads holding onto themselves with their last breath.Every inch of her ached and refused to move. Her glaive was a few inches by her side, but no matter how she wanted to, her hand remained dead tired and unmoving.She stared at the sky; red light fought with yellow one that was way dimmer than when it had come on. Her beacon of hope was wavering.‘P-please be… be strong, Elly. I-I know you aren’t su… supposed to f-fight a-and… and I’m… I’m s-sorry to… to put y-you in this… this p-position but please stay strong. I-If you go off, I’ll lose my m-mind.’Eleanor wasn’t a fighter. She wasn’t to be in the heat of the battle. She was meant to bring things to order. She was the restorer and healer. She was to correct what the parliamentarians had done wrong a

“You. Are. Weak.”The dagger went through Layla’s neck like it was butter, but nothing happened. Her head was still on her shoulders, and there was no single scar. It was like nothing had happened.Draven’s eyes were wide, darting from the dagger to her unsevered head, and her smirk grew wider.“You are weak, Draven. Despite stealing others powers to add to yours, you still couldn’t get rid of lil’ weak me. It’s such a shame.” She mocked as her glaive lifted off the ground to her hand, and she swung it at him.He dodged, but not quick enough. The blade cut across his chest from his left shoulder to his side, leaving a large gaping wound.He stumbled back, pressing his hand to it, and he glowered at her as the red radiating off his body glowed brighter.“You’re going to regret that!” He snarled at her as the wound slowly closed.“No, you’re going to regret everything you did to me and all the Children of Hope that have come before Eleanor and me.” She said, pointing her glaive at him,

“This isn’t the time for useless jokes or gatekeeping the ttruth, Demeter.” Layla scowled, narrowing her eyes at her as she tightened her grip on her shoulder. “If you don’t tell me how to stop it, everyone will die, including you, and I’m sure you wouldn’t want that.”“You can’t stop it. No matter what you do, you can’t stop it.” Demeter grinned, shaking her head. “The eye of chaos can only be deactivated by the one who activated it.”“What?!” Layla gasped as shivers ran through her spine. “No! It can’t be. You’re lying. There has to be another way.”‘She has to be lying. The eye of chaos has to have another way to be turned off without Draven.’“There’s no other way! Everyone here is going to die. Then it will keep spreading out, draining every supernatural in its way until it has taken every bit of power in the supernatural world. Everyone will die.” She cackled, throwing her head back, and her entire body shook. “Every single one of them will pay with their lives for turning the

“That doesn’t mean anything. Boris was always the weakest among us.” Blaze scoffed, and Demeter nodded her head more than she was supposed to.“Sure, whatever you say to keep your hope high.” Layla snorted, throwing the head over her shoulder. “Round two. Make sure you make it count. It will be a disgrace if you don’t land a single blow on me before you die.”Blaze fired multiple balls of fire at her while Demeter sent blades of sharp petals. Layla lifted her hand, creating a barrier, and all their attacks disappeared the moment they touched it.She lifted her hand, forging a large shard of ice and launching it at Blaze in the blink of an eye. He screamed as it pierced through his heart, coming out at the other side. She rushed at him before he could melt the ice, and she cut off his head.“Two down, one more to go. You’re the last man standing, Demeter.” Layla taunted as his body fell to the ground and turned to ashes.Demeter’s face was paler than snow as she gaped at Layla. Her ent
