Chapter 87 My anger fill the void of my love for him
Chapter 87 My anger fill the void of my love for him
"Stop, we have to get back out there, everyone is waiting for us." I whisper.
"Then why are you still on top of me?" I lift my head off his chest and look at him with a scowl.
"Now, why would point it out?" I ask, moving to get off him but he grabs me by my thigh and pulls me back on top of him.
"I wasn't complaining." I peck him on the lips before rolling off him.
"Too late." I get up from the bed and fix my top/ Andrew's shirt.
"Can't we just go back to cuddling?" Andrew whines.
"No. Get up, we need to go." I look behind me, on the bed to see Andrew pretending to be asleep. "Really?"
My eyes land on the cup of water I had earlier and a smirk grows on my face. "Look at my sleeping beauty, he probably needs a kiss to be woken up." All he needs is a dress and some make up.
I could see him trying not smile and that's all I needed. I take up the glass off water and walk around to his side.
"With a true love's kiss." I say before pouring the remaining water on his face.
His eyes snap open and he jolts up wiping the water off his face. He looks at me in disbelief and I give him an innocent smile before saying. "Get up."
"But I didn't get that kiss."
"I can get more water Andrew."
"Ok, ok." He says in defeat and gets off of the bed and puts in his tank top.
Even though I look annoyed, I really love our little playful moments.
Walking outside of the bedroom, everyone is crowded in the entire Cottage, from inside going outside. I guess this is another disadvantage of bringing back hundreds of Succubus' back from the dead.
Is it just me or are they staring at us?
We quickly and awkwardly maneuver our way outside. I take in the fresh air, thankful to get out of that cluster.
"Call me a wuss, but they scare me." Andrew says as he eyes everyone.
"We do?" We are interrupted by a tall brunette with green eyes. I've seen her once or twice but we haven't been introduced to everyone yet so I don't know her.
"Not really, it's just that they were looking at us weird."
"Don't mind that, they just need to get some used to you guys."
"I'm Jazmine by the way."
"Oh you're Jazmine."
"Is there a problem?" She asks raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, no, no. It's just that our friend, Daniel, was tell us about what happened last night."
"Well, he shouldn't have been lurking around us in the first place." She snaps at me.
"I'm sure he didn't mean any harm."
"I don't care. I despise any and all demons, even vampires." She growls.
Andrew stands between us and say, "Ok, I think we got the message. Thanks."
She takes a longer look at Andrew before walking into the cottage. We hear a whistle behind us and we see Daniel and Junior walking towards us.
"Did you see all of that?"
"Yep." Junior answers.
"She has an attitude and clearly doesn't like anyone, but all of them seem to respect her though. From what I saw last night, I think Elizabeth should be worried." Daniel whispers.
"No, she doesn't. What are you talking about?"
"I don't know. She just gives me a snake vibe."
"A vibe?" I ask like he's crazy. He just shrugs and runs his hand through his now over grown hair.
Andrew shakes his head and say, "Elizabeth trust all of them, so I don't think we have anything to worry about."
"Lets hope so. They always say forgive and forget, maybe she didn't forgive Elizabeth for sneaking around with Nikolaos."
As soon as he said that I feel this huge headache come on.
"What did you just say?" A familiar voice asks behind us.
We are all caught off guard, especially Daniel. "N-nothing.... I promise I didn't call you snake." He stutters.
My headache keeps getting worse and that's when I realized it's Elizabeth trying to come forth.
Why now?
Let me through! Elizabeth growls with anger.
"No, you said something about Elizabeth and Nikolaos." Her saying that out loud got everyone's attention.
"Yeah, what's the big deal?"
LET ME THROUGH!
A whimper falls from my lips as I give in and let her in control.
~~~
ELIZABETH'S POV
"Elle, are you ok?" Andrew asks.
"She's fine." I turn my attention back to Jazmine who is already looking at me.
"Is what he said is true? You and Nikolaos?" She asks with pure disgust.
I take a moment to calm myself down before speaking. "Yes, I did have a relationship with him." Everyone gasp, hearing my answer.
She takes a step back away from me while looking at me in disbelief. "This. This was all your fault?"
"N-"
"You told him where to find us didn't you?"
"No, I didn't."
"Yes, you did!" She shouts.
"What is happening here?" My mother asks, coming into view.
"Elizabeth. She was the reason Nikolaos and his father found us!" My mother doesn't say anything or even bless her with a face expression. "You knew didn't you?"
My mother lets a breath out before answering, "Yes." Everyone's face turns into a scowl as they stare at my mother and I.
Oh no.
"And you kept this from us." Jazmine states. "Elizabeth, practically got us all killed, all because she was in the sheets with that sleazy demon and you didn't think to tell us?"
"She is my daughter, Jazmine."
"And we are your people! You are our queen.... well you used to be."
"What did you just say to me?"
"You heard me. The moment you knew about Elizabeth and Nikolaos and chose not to tell your own people you weren't our queen anymore. You betrayed us just like she did."
"I would watch my mouth right now."
"What are you going to do? Kill me? Your daughter already did that 2 centuries ago." The next thing I know, my mother's hand is slapping her across the face.
Everyone automatically takes a step back as they watch the scenery. I really don't like what's happening right now.
Jazmine puts her hand on her face where my mother slapped. She slowly turns her head and faces my mother.
"You are just as bad as her." She sneers at my mother. "You call us a family and that we should stick by each other while you're here keeping the huge secret from us. You're such a hypocrite."
I finally come back to my senses as anger boils in me hearing how she disrespected my mother. "Stop it right now, Jazmine." I warn her as I take step towards. "If you're going to blame anyone, blame me. Leave my mother out of this."
"You're right, I should just take all my anger and hatred on you, bitch."
"I will not allow you talk to me like that." I roll my hands in fist trying to calm all the bad thoughts running through my mind. I can't, she's family.
"I take that as a challenge." She draws her sword and stand in a fighting stance.
I roll my eyes and look at her like she's stupid. "I'm not going to play sword with you Jazmine."
She swings her sword towards me, aiming for my neck. With quick reflexes, I already have my sword out blocking hers. With wide eyes, I ask, "Are you crazy?"
"You didn't want to play sword right?" She asks with a smirk.
With a snarl, I push her sword back, away from me and kick her in the stomach which causes her to fall a few feet back. Taking a few steps towards her, all of us are distracted by a huge arrow that lands close by the entrance of the cottage, which isn't too far from us.
Getting a good look on the arrow, it becomes clear with Nikolaos crest. Are you serious, Nik? Now?
Everyone is frozen, just looking at the arrow until another one lands in the crowd. Someone screams in agony and that got everyone into action mood.
People are taking off into the direction of where the arrows coming from and some stay back to help the person who got injured. It seems to be Siara.
"Elizabeth, we need to get Cora and get out of here!" Andrew shouts over all the screaming.
"No, you get Cora and get to saftey. I'll be fine."
"No, you're coming with us."
"Andrew, do as I say and get inside." He seems to be defeated and before he leaves, I quickly say, "And try not to get killed."
"You too!" He and the others run into the cottage and I turn around as I spread my wings. I spot my mother ready to go as well but I stop her. "Mom, you stay behind and make sure Lyra gets to safety. Both of you."
"But I need to be out there with them."
"Yeah, well we're not their favorite persons right now, so I don't think they'll care." It was painful to say but it's the truth. She reluctantly agreed and ran back inside to Lyra.
I lift off the ground and fly higher to get a good view. I gasp at the sight of the army of demons that are lined out all around the mountain shooting arrows.
"Nikolaos." I growl under my breath.
I spot an arrow coming right at me and with fast reflexes, I catch it in my hand. I then turn the arrow towards one of them specifically, and throw it at him. I smile satisfied with my good aim when I see him go down.
"Good aim." I hear someone say from behind me. I turn around to see Jazmine looking at me with the same scowl she had on earlier.
"This really isn't the time, Jazmine. If you haven't realized, we are being attacked."
"I'm a aware. Your boyfriend really does hate you." She laughs.
"What is the point you are trying to make?"
"That you are so foolish and a bitch for ever getting in bed with that slim bag."
"Are you jealous or something?"
"That's the last thing I feel, right now."
"Really? Because it seems that you are jealous of me. I always noticed your cold exterior towards me but I never let it get to me because that's just how I thought you were. But I was wrong, you were jealous of me the entire time. Everyone loved Liz, she's the perfect girl, blah blah blah. You couldn't stand me for getting all the attention that you didn't. You want to know why? You are a cold, self centered bitch."
She grabs me around the neck and tries to push me down but I gain my balance and push her away from me. "Stop it right now." I say warningly. She doesn't seem to get the message and instead, she flies towards me. She stops midway of her attack and screams in pain. "Jazmine?" I asked confused.
"My back, i-it's in my back." She cries.
I quickly fly behind her and take the arrow out of her back. "Are you ok?" I ask her as I watch her wound heal.
She doesn't answer and immediately takes off in the direction of the demons. Now that I think about, I should not of taken that thing out.
I follow behind her and swerve any arrows being shot at me. Getting closer to the base of the mountain, I lower to the ground but not completely and I begin to take heads off one by one.
Bodies fall, blood splashed, screaming and shouting..... this seems so familiar. It brings me back to 2 centuries ago, when I lost my family. All the screaming and the chaos brings back those memories I have been haunted by for years.
This is all because of one person.
Nikolaos.
That one fucking word. His fucking name!
He is the root of all my problems. The cause of my anger. The fucking reason my people hate me.
But I shouldn't just blame him for all of this, right? I foolishly allowed myself to fall in love with some like him. I put my trust in him and he betrayed me and now he wants to take a poor innocent child from her parent's arms?
I am sick to my stomach with myself for ever getting involved with someone like him. For even still have feelings towards him....
Yes, I am fucking guilty for having feelings for him..... and this is why I punish myself so hard. I made a vow to hunt and kill every demon I could get my hands on, especially him.... all because I feel like it will help with my guilt for even having the slightest love I had for him 2 centuries ago.
I let my anger fill the void of my love for him because it causes physical pain just thinking about him that way.
I will use my anger to finish what I started. I won't let love stop me this time, I'm not going to be weak. I'm going to be the strong ass woman my mother raised me to be.
I am the princess of the Succubus kind and I won't let no fucking man get between me and my family.
