Flame of Your Touch - Part II
"But first, answer me this. Was my life just a play to you?" Her head fell to look as a dark shadow loomed over her stunning face.
"I'd always considered her to be my mother figure. I upheld her, I looked up to her for guidance. But it turns out she had been using me all along. You made me believe I slaughtered my parents, you made me loathe my life, you made me think this was a punishment from the Goddess. You used me to conquer everything you desired. And then, as if my life wasn't already miserable enough, you ordered me to assassinate my own mate! My Lorcán! I don't even remember his face! Then, one day, you decided to add some spice and drama by embedding a fictitious bond! Once in life when I was just beginning to feel something, the desire to live. You had to take everything away from me!" She raised her head, her eyes blazing with fire, rage, the desire to kill, the desire to bathe in the blood of her adversaries.
Dominic's face was contoured with unyielding rage, and the fire boiled inside him as he succumbed to his rage.
"You think I had nothing better to do with my life, that I decided to play with yours! I spent my life serving your father! I've spent my entire life fighting alongside him! Fighting for him! I was on the verge of death countless times! I killed countless enemies! And he exiles me solely because I attempted to murder that demon! The same demon who slaughtered countless innocent lycans and wolves! The demon who murdered my chosen beloved and my unborn child! He wishes to unite Drinealia and Auhesraivia in order to bring about peace! The peace that was won at the expense of my comrades' blood! How dare she think the Lycans would live with those cold-hearted demons! And you dare to dream the same thing!" He pulls the sword from its sheath and points it at her
"I'm not going to let any of those Demons live! I began with your grandfather and will end with the last demon alive on the face of the earth! I will avenge my fallen comrades! I will exact vengeance on my beloved and unborn child! And you will aid me in this endeavor! If you decide to oppose, you and the rest of the females, pups, and useless elders will face death! I will slaughter the entire pack!" He growled, and she tilted her head,
"You took everything away from me. Everything that gave me a reason to look forward to waking up each day, to wish for a new day, another chance. I don't have anything to live for anymore! What much more do I have to lose!" She moved closer to the sword with steady strides.
"Kill me, slaughter the pack, I don't care."
"Seraphina! No!" Aiden hollered in a weak voice who only was a spectator this whole time.
Dominic's eyes widened as she stood at the edge of the sword's stubby sharp head.
"But what makes you think I'm going to let you live?" She lifted her gaze and murmured,
Dominic's eyes widened as Seraphina's eyes went pitch black, her hair began to dance like the wild waves of the sea, and Cora surfaced in Seraphina's place in a flash. He leaped and stepped away from her, his sword falling off of his grasp in the process. The demon had already picked it up. Cora steadily moved closer to him at an immense speed and a sinister grin spread across his face. Faye appeared in front of him out of nowhere. Her mouth tapped, her arms were bound. Her eyes widened in surprise as she saw the mighty demon charging towards her.
"No, Seraphina!" Aiden screamed as Cora came to a halt, her sword only an inch from Faye's throat.
"What? Strike, you heartless behemoth! Your blade represents your true nature, and it never stops, no matter who is in its path! Strike!" Dominic growled, his rage visible in his eyes as he laughed and hollered deviously. Cora remained motionless in her foot, her pitch-black eyes staring daggers at the male.
"Kill her!" He yelled, but no one came to his aid, so he frowned and looked around.
"Are you searching for your minions? What a pity! They are all gone!" When he heard the voice, his eyes widened. King Emmerich approached them, Kendrick close behind, his blade free and bathed in blood. Accompanied by the remainder of the squad that was supposed to be dead and two of them carried out Liam. Cora's gaze was drawn to the King as well;
"I saw you die!" Dominic mumbled,
"You thought it would be so easy to kill me! I'm surprised how big of a fool you are!" Emmerich burst out laughing.
"You monsters!" He screamed and drew his sword. Suddenly, he stopped. His eyes grew wide. The sound of flesh tearing apart under the weight of a dagger is heard by all. A shooting pain shot through his back as the dagger was twisted and pushed deeper and deeper into his flesh.
"You lying son of a bitch!"
"Victoria!" They exclaimed! Her eyes were wide and dead, her hair disheveled, and she had heavy bags under her perfect blue eyes. She looked as if a heavy storm blew through her.
"You promised I'd get Aiden if I just did what you said! I even killed that mutt Zedan! Now you dispatch an assassin to eliminate me!" She yelled as everyone turned to look at her.
"You bitch!" Dominic growled as he swung his sword. Faye ducked and the air around him shifts as Cora lifts her knee and extends her leg, she releases a mighty kick that breaks his shin and throws him across the ground.
Victoria's gaze was drawn to Faye, who lay helpless on the ground. She realized she had no way out of this situation alive, so she reached out her claws to snare Faye. Cora, on the other hand, was quicker, and she had Victoria dangling in the air with her claws around her neck.
