Witch Intervention...
Witch Intervention....
Kim Pov
Kim was livid by the time she emerged from the tunnels. Killing Ana didn’t go at all like she expected. The worst part was that Talon knew Ana was strong, and had some type of power. One that she wished she had herself. Damn it! She cursed to herself as she dashed through the woods of Mercy Falls. Her goal was to go straight to Talon and confront him about sending her on that mission. Had those losers not shown up, Ana would have killed her. Kim knew she couldn’t let that happen.
Once she was out of the woods, she went right to the motel that Talon turned her in. The memories of the things they did in that room almost had her core heating, but she held it in and tried to focus on her anger instead.
Kim kicked the door wide open, not bothering to knock. The sight in front of her only added to her already pissed off state.
Talon was in the bed with nothing on with a naked red head riding him like a bull. From the erratic beating of the girl’s heart, Kim knew she was human. Not even giving it a second thought, Kim zipped to the bed, yanking the girl off Talon and tossing her to the other side of the room where the girl smacked the far wall.
“Hey babe. Did you finish your assignment” Talon asked casually putting his hands behind his head. He didn’t even bat an eye at what just happened
“What the fuck! Who is that whore!” Kim shouted pointing at the girl moaning in pain on the floor.
“She’s just my little fun and none of your concern” He answered with an almost amused expression.
Kim was shaking with rage and jealously. Now that she was a vampire her emotions were haywire and she acted on impulse. The impulse she was feeling right now was to eliminate any competition.
Without warning Kim pounced on the unsuspecting girl, snatching her up from the ground by her hair. The girl began screaming and kicking, but her human strength could only be described as weak at best. Kim made sure to look Talon in the eye before she made her move. Once she had all his attention she viscously bit into the girl’s neck. Kim savagely attacked her until she ripped out a chunk of her throat and dropped her dying body to floor.
“I wasn’t done with her yet” Talon said reaching for a cigarette on the nightstand. Kim wiped the blood from her mouth with the back of her hand.
“You are now” She snapped. “Why didn’t you tell me Ana had some type of fucking power?!”
“I take it you couldn’t kill her” He stated sitting up to take a drag of his cigarette.
“No! The bitch almost killed me!” Kim yelled. Talon’s laid back attitude about the situation wasn’t helping her. She couldn’t even get her fangs to retreat she was so mad.
“Hmm she’s a fighter isn’t she” Talon said to himself more than her “We’ll have to come up with a better plan next time”
“Fuck you! I’m over this!” Kim turned to storm out the room, but Talon was in her face stopping her in seconds. He no longer looked calm and relaxed but angry.
“You will never walk away until I give you permission. I made you, therefore I own you” He said menacingly.
Kim hissed in response. A bad move on her part. Talon’s big hand wrapped itself around her throat so tightly she could feel her windpipe crushing. His black eyes peered down at her as she struggled to remove his hold.
“Are we clear?” He asked. Kim did her best to eagerly agree and Talon finally let her go.
“Now that we’re on the same page, it’s time to come up with plan B.” Talon said walking away from a gasping Kim. Once the bruises started to heal on her neck she stood and faced the still nude man. Even though he nearly broke her neck, she still couldn’t help desiring him. Kim was an addict and Talon was the worst drug she could be on.
“Sorry for trying to leave you babe” She said stepping over the dead girl’s body and closing the space between her and Talon. He watched her with mild interest. “I’ll do anything you want. Just tell me. How do we kill my sister?” Kim purred running her fingers down his bare chest.
Talon opened his mouth to reply but stopped. His eyes changed to a faraway look and a fearful expression covered his face.
“Talon? What’s wrong?” Kim questioned concerned.
“We have to go. NOW!” He demanded. Before she could respond, Talon was zipping through the room quickly getting dressed and gathering his things. If she weren’t a vampire she wouldn’t have been able to follow his speedy movements.
“Kim! Bring your ass here now!” Talon screamed at her from the entrance. She had no idea what was happening but now wasn’t the time to question him. Kim quickly took his hand and he practically dragged her from the motel room. Whatever was going on was serious because she could sense Talons fear.
By the time they had reached the parking lot of the motel, Kim didn’t have to ask what he was afraid of. In seconds they were surrounded by large men covered in chainmail. The soldiers descended on them so fast it was as if they appeared out of thin air. They circled the pair but never said a word.
“Fuck!” Talon cursed dropping his packed bag to the ground.
“What’s going on?! Who are these people?!” Kim asked panicking. The soldiers had deadly looks on their face and not one heart beat could be heard. Kim wasn’t the smartest girl but she knew these vampires were professional and not to be messed with.
The men in front of them parted slightly to make room for another walking through. The vampire that came to the center must have been the leader of the group. He walked with authority and had a dark sexiness about him. Kim cursed herself for even thinking it but it couldn’t be helped. Whoever this man was he was hot. Even if he did end up killing them.
“Nice to see you again so soon” The dark haired man said looking directly at Talon. From the evil glint in Talon’s eyes, Kim understood the men knew each other and weren’t on friendly terms
“Maximus! I’m not surprised to see you behind this ambush. Still a traitor against your brother I hear” Talon said in his usual cocky tone. The man, Maximus, didn’t seemed amused.
“My brother made his own foolish choices that he will pay for. I will no longer take the fall for his arrogance” Maximus snapped back
“Whatever helps you sleep at night Max! By the way I hear Cassandra is still running from you. It’s a shame your own mate hates you because she is a nice piece of ass if I do say so myself” Talon taunted with a smirk.
Maximus lost his cool and flew into a rage. His eyes bled black and his fangs exploded. The vampire gracefully pulled a sword strapped to his back and dove it into Talon’s midsection. It happened so fast, Kim couldn’t stop it had she tried. Talon grunted in pain but wouldn’t show any more emotion as he held onto the sword preventing it from going in any further.
“Please don’t hurt him!” Kim shouted to Maximus; he ignored her as he pushed the blade further inside Talon. She was so afraid that any moment this man would finish Talon off.
“Your cockiness will be the death of you. If you want to live tell me where the girl is?” Maximus said.
Talon was still holding onto the blade but he was shaking. However he managed to flash an arrogant smile and Kim knew he wasn’t going to corporate with Maximus. She had to do something; she loved Talon and wouldn’t let him die.
Maximus forced the sword in a little further...
“Wait! Wait! What girl? May-maybe I can help” She pleaded. Maximus turned his head to look at her for the first time. He glanced over her up and down but didn’t look impressed at all.
“The one my brother claims to be a blue eyed vampire. Where can I find her?” Maximus asked. Kim huffed annoyed. There is no way in hell he could be talking about her sister. Could he?
“Ana? Are you looking for Ana?” She asked unbelieving. It’s not like she knew any other blue eyed vampires running around. Maximus perked up and swiftly withdrew the sword from Talon’s abdomen. Talon dropped to his knees gripping the wound.
“Kim! Keep your mouth shut!” Talon ordered. Maximus kicked him the face to silence him and then made his way over to her.
“Tell me where she is and I will spare his life and yours” Maximus deep voice penetrated her fear. There is no way she would risk her life for her sisters. With a shaky hand Kim pointed in the direction of the woods.
“Last time we saw her she was with her friends in the woods. We shot her so her blood is still there if you need a scent” Kim told him. Talon taught her a little about tracking so she knew if these vamps couldn’t find her it was because they didn’t know her scent.
“NO!” Talon grunted, rolling over on the ground. She didn’t understand why he wanted to protect Ana since he was the main one trying to kill her.
“Thank you” Maximus replied before gesturing to his men. The soldiers gathered a wounded Talon up and disappeared from sight.
“NO! You said you would let us go!” Kim screamed. She looked in all directions but couldn’t find any leads on where the men took off with Talon.
“I said I would spare your lives. I did. Talon is being taken to our king for punishment” Maximus stated. Without a second glance he and the rest of his army ran off toward the woods...
Kim was left standing alone in an empty parking lot. She couldn’t believe the events that took place in last few minutes.
Talon was gone...
She was all alone....
This was all somehow Ana’s fault like everything else. Kim wasn’t going to give up so easily. She promised Talon she wouldn’t leave him again. And she was going to find him…..
No matter what…
Ana Pov
“Hello Analise, daughter of Queen Celeste, and future destroyer of us all” Cora said like her words didn’t send an unpleasant chill down my spine.
“Wh-what?” I choked out.
“Please come inside. You must all be tired” Cora ignored my question and stepped aside to let us in her home.
We all entered the living room noticing all the floral coated furniture covered in plastic. From around the corner a pre-teen brunette girl came bouncing into the room.
“This is my granddaughter Zara. She will take you all into the kitchen for food and water” Cora said from behind us. The short chubby girl smiled, revealing her silver braces with blue rubber bands.
“Oh thank god! I’m starving! These people never eat!” Lily piped up pushing her way through us to get to Zara. Everyone began to follow Zara but Cora’s hand on my shoulder stopped me.
“Not you Analise. We need to talk. Come.” She ended opening a door that had steps leading down to a basement. I glanced at Seb and then Jace before following her.
As soon as I took one step inside the door closed on its own behind me. That can’t be a good sign. I hope she doesn’t try to kill me. I’ve had enough of that lately. Even so I slowly walked down each creaking step, praying this isn’t s trap.
When I reached the end and caught sight of what was in front of me, I knew my prayers were denied.
Standing next to each other were three people I was sure I didn’t trust yet. All three of the woman regard me coolly and I had to force myself not to snarl.
To the left was Cora, on the right was Verna and in the center was Helia...
“Hello Analise” Helia said. Seeing the white haired woman instantly had my mind flashing back to the last time I saw her. When she nearly killed Seb. He hasn’t been the same since he drank her potion.
My anger at Helia took over and I charged her; fangs bursting out. Before I could even touch her, she waved the back of her hand and sent me flying back into the brick wall. My body slammed against it hard, knocking the wind from my lungs.
“We are not your enemies Analise. Its time you understand that” Helia said calmly.
“I can’t tell.” I snapped getting to my feet “What did you do to Seb?” I demanded
“Like I said before I didn’t harm him. It was just a test, but that is not your concern” Helia replied.
Is she kidding? Not my concern? Of course it is. I let my ability bubble to my core. If I couldn’t get a decent response, I would force one from her. I channeled the tingling energy to the palm of my right hand. Once I felt it was strong enough I held out my hand and watched the blue bolt shoot out from the center.
Right before it reached them, all three witches held up a hand and froze my bolt midair.
“We are linked Analise. You can’t over power us” Cora said. I kept my palm up trying to push the bolt but it barely moved an inch. It was costing me a lot of energy to hold it and eventually my hand dropped and the bolt disappeared.
“What do you want from me?!” I questioned. I was beyond irritated.
“We only want to help you. We are good witches” Cora said gently
“Ha! Verna sent me to my death. And Helia almost killed my friend” I accused. Helia shook her head as if she was disappointed in me.
“Seb only reacted badly to the wolfsbane because of who he truly is. And Verna is a seer, it is her duty to fate to follow her visions. Which is why we are here today” Helia said.
The crone pointed to the ceiling and a huge crystal ball floated down. It was bigger than any crystal ball I’d ever seen and it stay suspended in the air in the center of the room.
“Cora has the gift of foresight. When she opens her third eye she can see the mostly likely future of anyone in the world. It is rare to be as gifted and accurate as her. So when she called and told me she had looked into the future and saw the death of my grandson, how do you think I reacted?” Helia said looking at me with disappointment and sadness. My heart would have dropped to my stomach had I been human at her words
“What?! Jace dies? Ho-how, why?” I fire questions with a shaky voice
“Because of you. And not just him but everyone upstairs. All of your friends” Cora said with pity.
I fell to my knees. She couldn’t be right? I would never hurt any of them. Never! I love all my friends! How is this possible? I could feel my eyes well up with tears. A warm hand lifted my chin. My eyes met the cool grays of Helia
“There, there child. It hasn’t happened. That’s why we are here. To warn you” She explained
“I would never hurt them.” I cried
“Not intentionally but your choices put them in danger. Look into the ball” Helia said motioning to the huge round spear in front us.
Inside I could see a bunch of men with swords. They were moving at an inhuman speed; attacking. I stood up and walked closer. Standing in front of it I realize it was a battle. The people fighting were my friends and I against these guard like men.
“What is this?” I questioned still staring into the crystal.
“My vision showed the kings men coming here for you. Only your friends try to protect you from being taken and well, see for yourself” Cora responded.
I tuned my eyes back to the screen in time to see Jace being stabbed through the back and heart. Simon already lay lifeless on the ground. Lily’s neck was snapped. Marie was fighting one man but another attacked and killed her from behind. I was throwing bolts everywhere but there too many for me and I was taken down. Seb was running to me when a blade swiped through his face. I couldn’t watch anymore. It was all too much to see. It looked so real.
My emotions took control and a surge shot from my core and shattered the crystal ball into a million pieces. I closed my eyes to regain control of myself.
“How do I stop it?” I asked looking at each witch
“The King is aware of your existence and he’s is after you. I know you can defeat him but you’re not at your full power right now. His men will be here in a few hours. You have to be taken alone and without a fight” Helia explained
“If I couldn’t beat his men in your vision, how can I defeat the king?!” I threw my hands up in frustration.
This isn’t my fight yet I’m in the center of it. I never wanted to take the down the kingdom and now it’s like I don’t have a choice. Everything that’s happening feels like it’s out of my hands.
“Trust me, when you’re at full strength you will know” Helia informed me
“So this was some witch intervention to make sure I get kidnapped alone?” I assumed that was the point of all this.
“Yes. And it was to show you that we are on your side, even though it may not seem so yet to you” Verna said finally speaking for the first time.
“Is that why you called me future destroyer?” I asked Cora.
“No, I called you that because based on your current path you will not fulfill your destiny as the savior and instead destroy us all” Cora answered simply. My jaw dropped. Everything she said was new to me. What is she talking about? I opened my mouth to question her but Helia cut me off
“Don’t listen to Cora, she sees a lot and the future is always changing. Just find a way to keep the others from interfering in your capture.” Helia told me. I glanced at Cora and she had both her eyes closed and the third one open. It looked so weird, but I wasn’t ready to drop her cryptic future destroyer and savior babble. I wanted to know what she meant.
“Please Analise just focus on the task at hand. Don’t let all your friends die. My grandson has the potential to be a very powerful witch but he is still afraid of his gift. None of you are ready to battle yet and it’s up to you to make sure it doesn’t happen tonight” Helia was almost pleading with me and she was right. I saw it. There is no way I would be selfish and let the people I care about risk their lives to protect me. I don’t have time to dwell on Cora’s words and instead come up with a plan to keep them out of harm’s way.
“Okay. So what if I just leave now?” I said thinking out loud
“No, they will follow” Cora answered still only having her third eye open. I think she’s looking into the future right now.
“What if I just tell them the truth?” I thought that sounded reasonable. If they knew they would die that would make them stay behind.
“No, it won’t work either. They care too much to leave you defenseless” Cora responded. That’s just great. I started pacing the room to think but I couldn’t come up with anything. Seb was the biggest problem that I was sure of. He never leaves me alone to battle
“Is there anything you guys can do? I mean Helia you’re the most powerful witch right?” They brought me down her to warn me I don’t understand why they couldn’t help.
“We aren’t meant to interfere. This is your path and I can’t walk it for you. We shouldn’t have warned you but something had to be done. Now it’s up to you” Helia told me. Suddenly her body began to cloud with white smoke and then poof! She was gone; just disappeared only leaving a cloud of smoke in her wake.
“I came here to tell you I’m sorry you lost your human life but what’s meant to be will be.” Verna said before vanishing herself the same way Helia just did. What the heck?
“Uh what happened to them?” I asked Cora, last witch standing
“Their message was delivered they had no business left here. You still need a plan” Cora said pushing me back on track. Okay what can I do to convince my friends not to fight for me? Or maybe it’s not all of them I need to convince but just one. An idea began to form in my head
“Yes! That will work if you succeed” Cora shouted before I even told her my idea. That was all the encourage I needed.
I practically flew up the basement stairs to begin my plan. The witches said the kings men will come for me in a few hours and it may take that long to convince this one person to just listen to me and follow my plan.
Once upstairs I trailed the noise to the kitchen where everyone was eating and talking. Seb and Jace both stood as soon as I entered. Oh boy, here’s the hard part.
“Uh Jace, can I speak to you outside for minute?” I asked shyly.
I could feel Seb’s eyes trying to search me for a clue to what was going on but I couldn’t look at him. Never in a million years would I be able to keep him from trying to protect me. But Jace is more reasonable, and if this plan was to work he was the one I needed on my side.
Jace eagerly nodded and walked behind me as I exited the kitchen. Just to be at a safe distance I exited the front door too. I didn’t want anyone over hearing our talk.
The sky was reddish in color due to the setting sun. On a normal day it would be beautiful to just stare at. But today it reminded me that soon I will be captured by terrible vampires taken to a king who probably wants to kill me.
I stopped walking and faced Jace once were out of sight behind the ugly van.
“Ana? What’s wrong?” he asked sincerely concerned.
It made me ache on the inside. For so long I had dreamed of him looking at me the way he is now. I closed my eyes to get the image from my mind and focused on telling him my plan. Jace ruined my concentration by closing the distance between us and cupping my cheeks with his warm hands. Heat spread through my face at the small contact as his delicious scent washed over me. It still amazes me that he can have this effect on me without even trying
“Jace-”
“No, Ana let me go first please” Jace said cutting me off and standing impossibly closer. “I want you to please give me a fair chance to win your heart”
“Jace it’s so hard to look at you and not be overwhelmed with emotions. Mostly anger” I told him honestly taking a much needed step back.
“I am sorry. I have been trying to give you space to forgive me but your always running off with that Seb guy and seeing you with him just makes me so, so-
“So what?! Angry! Hurt! Sad! Well now you know how I felt watching you with my fucking sister every single day for years! And she told me that you knew I had feelings for you and you laughed about it!” I yelled. I took a couple deep breaths to calm myself but it wasn’t helping. How dare he say a word about Seb with what he did to me?
“Ana I never knew you had feelings for me. I mean there was a rumor at one point but I didn’t believe it. As for laughing at you I never did that! I never participated in your teasing. Kim is a liar” He said softly.
Jace walked back and took my hands in his. His beautiful eyes had welled with tears and was hurting me to see him hurt. All these feelings I have for my mates is too much. If it’s this bad with two I don’t know how I will survive when I meet my third one. Jace leant down and planted a warm kiss on my forehead. It was so sweet and loving a small tear escaped my eye. I’m not able to do this right now. So using all my strength I backed out of his embrace.
“I don’t want to talk about this anymore. I actually brought you out here because I need your help” I told him finally getting to the point
“Yes anything you need” He replied still gazing at me tenderly. I hope he sticks to that once I tell him my plan.
“The king is sending his men to abduct me soon and I need you to make sure you and the others don’t interfere” I explained
“What? The vampire king is after you? Ana we have to help” He said seriously
“Jace you guys cant. Cora showed me her vision of the event and you all die” I emphasized the word die to really get my point to him
“We can fight! The vampire king is known for his cruelty we can’t just hide and let him take you!” Jace was getting upset that much was clear. He ran his fingers through his silky hair roughly.
“Please Jace I’m begging you to honor my choice” I pleaded with him. He looked at me completely torn but I held firm.
“Damn it!” he shouted throwing his hands up “There has to be another way?”
“There isn’t enough time. Just trust me on this. I will find a way to escape. But you have to hold the others back. Only you can do this for me Jace” I said taking his hand into mine. His shoulders dropped and I knew he had caved.
“What can I do?” He asked voice thick with sadness
“I was hoping some type of restraint spell” I guessed thinking about the one he used on me not too long ago. Jace nodded in agreement but I knew it was the last thing he wanted
“Wait, What about Seb? He’s strong and the spell won’t hold that many people fighting against it” Jace said. This is what I was afraid of; Seb. I assumed he would be the biggest obstacle in all this. Which is exactly why I came up with a different plan for dealing with him…
“Uh I have a more extreme plan in mind for Seb and let’s just say he is going to be very pissed off once he finds out…
