“Sometimes we need to cut ties with the familiar, to finally find love in the unfamiliar.”

Continuation | part 4:

A strong downpour fell into the abyss, outing Adam's growing flame within and I begun sinking into my past life. Thorns of my monster captured this emotionless queen, who deserves no crown without my knight at my side.

Emptiness fill my being everytime the moment replays of the harsh predicament Jaden forced me into. Choosing between the life of my mother figure or death to my soul. Forever losing the life that was never mine, but I was losing Adam too.

My knees buckled when a gun was brought to the sword fight, pointed directly at the woman I look up to, who stood unmoved and insisted for Ethan, my oldest brother, to withhold an crying Amelia.

“You don't have to do this Alex, I'll go with him.”

Browns curls shook in defiance to my act of bravery. She was attempting to protect me like a mother should, even if I'm not one of her own.

“It's about time someone saves you from him, Emily. Too long you've been fighting. Too long you've been dying, trying.”

Then the gun was cracked, but I cared too much...

So I shove and pushed the weapon of mass destruction away but I transformed into one too, from shattering the heart of my knight, by leaving with the soul snatcher and claiming to be only his. Claiming my heart belong to only him and now I can only hope, for Adam to use the fragments of my heart, to rebuild his.

To the land where it all begun, I was whisked away, but Jaden was no Prince Charming or my fighting knight. Through the house forever rooted into my memories I was carried, without a sound exiting my lips but thoughts screaming in my mind.

‘Run!’ the voices yelled and grew as he walked into a unfamiliar basement with me in his arms, then touched an almost unseen indentation on the bare wall to reveal an apartment, hidden underground.

“My sweet Lily, I have you once again,”

All I could do was pray for an quick recovery of my knight, as Jaden tighten his grip and whispered into my ear while entering an bedroom.

“I'll make you feel good my pet, as I always do.”

—With that, the door was kicked shut.
