Chapter 26: Happy Death Day
Kerrianne rushed back to Hemlock Grove, driving as fast as she could. Once she reached there, she drove to her home, stopping once seeing Roman's mother escalade outside Peter's house. The screams of her sad lover reached her ears as she quickly got out of the car and started walking down the stairs. Olivia stared at her as she smoked her cigarette, motioning her to go inside. Kerrianne quickly went in, as she saw Roman bawled up like a baby.
Kerrianne hurried to him as he cried mumbling "He's gone. He's gone." as she took him into her arms. She rubbed his head comforting him as he gripped her tight. Kerrianne was pissed off and soon Peter will know the consequences as she finally had enough.
"My poor baby. I'm here." She comforted him as she laid a kiss on his forehead. She finally calms him down enough to help him up before going outside. Olivia turned to look at them, watching with a slight smirk as she knew their bond was amazing.
"He's okay now. I'm not too far from your house. Just let me know." Kerrianne says as Roman's arm around her tightens, not wanting to let her leave. She left a fleeting kiss on his soft pillowy lips before leaving to go home. Roman watched her with sad eyes knowing that she was so angry. He could feel it. He wanted to go with her, but he decided to go home where he self-pitied himself as he wondered why this day was the worst.
Kerrianne had parked in her driveway, where the neighborhood looked like they were back to themselves. Kids playing in the streets as her next-door neighbor watered her plants. It was like an ordinary day. She got out of the car, waving to her neighbor before taking a deep breath and going in. She walked up her stairs going past the room that Luceria was killed in before going into her room. She dropped her bags before going to shower, Now wetting her hair to return it to its curly state. She scrubbed off the stink of death.
(Her pajamas)
She changed into her pajamas, where she went to the kitchen fixing her something to eat. Not knowing the trauma her mate was going to go through on his birthday.
Roman's Pov:
Roman laid on the lawn chair, listening to music in their empty pool. Hearing his mother's footsteps once she entered with a sparkler making him look up.
"Happy birthday, darling." Olivia says with a smile as she waved the sparkler around.
Roman stared at her, thinking what his bunny was doing right this minute as he blew smoke out his mouth. He played with his fingers, staring hard at the woman.
"I was wondering if I might ask you to join me in the attic." She says, still waving the sparkle.
Roman stared at her before leaning back, going for another smoke from his cigarette.
"Why?" He asked. He wanted to see his bunny so bad. To cuddle her and kiss her and touch her beautiful body.
"There's something I'd like to show you." Olivia said to him still waving the sparkler as Roman silently huffs before getting up from his seat to follow her to the attic. Once they met up into the attic, he stared at the black crib with candles around it.
"What is this?" He questioned his mother who grabbed his face before saying.
Remember
Roman remembered everything, turning to look at the crib as Olivia's voice rang into his head.
"All those secrets,
whispers of a dream.
My ordeal, so many disappointments over the years.
(baby crying)
Juliet and many others came.
(neck snapping) None with the mark.
And many went.
Until finally he came,
my miracle.
He was born with the caul. He will always be mine.
What are you?
That luminous red caul
I peeled from his wrinkled skin myself
and consumed with the humblest gratitude.
"And finally, the truth about your birthright." Olivia revealed. Roman started remembering all the times with Letha, and his jealous of her and Peter's relationship and the guy they had found.
Who? Who? Who?! - It was an angel.
You always knew how to find the right spot.
So, what am I thinking?
(Roman)That you wish the summer would never end.
I'm thinking that it's time to go home.
Fucking angels.
It was you.
(Letha crying out)
But images of Kerrianne started to overflow him. Her smiles, her scent, almost like her blood that he had drunk had relieved him of any heartbreak of the revelation of what his mother had him do. The night they had together as their bodies meld together in a longing embrace as creating their powerful bond. He now knew why he was wanting his bunny right about now. He slowly walked towards his mother as she turned towards him.
"She's waiting to meet her father." Olivia whispered to him.
"What are you?" He questioned, maybe that's why he loved blood maybe. Why he liked hurting himself.
"Shh." Olivia whispered.
"What are we?" She said to him as she picked up a needle and pricked the baby making it cry out.
"You know what you have to do." She speaks.
"No. No! No! No!" Roman started as he repeated crying, running to the wall where he cried sliding down to sit down.
"You can't control hunger. Let it take you." Olivia stated as she sucked the blood off the needle. Since Harriet had died, she didn't have her blood anymore. She knew she couldn't go after her daughter even if her blood gave her a high, she could never explain.
Roman repeatedly said no before trying to get away from his mother, wanting the comfort of his mate who had no idea what was happening to him right now. He ran over to the mirror, where he remembered what Shelley had told him in his dream sequence.
"You must make your heart steel. You must make your heart steel. You must make your heart steel. You must make your heart steel. You must make your heart steel." Roman repeated as he stared into the mirror as Olivia looked on.
"Clever boy." She said, as blood started leaking from his nose.
Roman stepped back, wiping his nose. He walked near the crib, sucking the blood off his fingers as he got his razor in his fingers as he eyed his mother with it. Olivia stared at him as he moved the curtain. Roman stared down at the baby not wanting to hurt the baby.
"You are a warrior." Roman started, shaking his head as Olivia stared at him.
(TW: Suc*de)
"You don't win." Roman said to her before slitting his wrists, bleeding out as he slowly fell to the ground.
(Over)
Olivia stared at him, before going over to him watching as he slowly died.
"Oh, my poor boy. I love you so much." She said, kneeling down cradling him in her arms. Those was not the arms he wanted around him. He longed for Kerrianne and her warmth.
Olivia singed to him as she waited for him to wake up. She rubbed his head softly for what felt like a lifetime. His blood running created something that wouldn't be seen till his rebirth.
Roman had gasped at the same time as Kerrianne shot up from her bed with her bunny eyes showing. She now could fill her mate's cries for her as his emotions hit her like a truck. She ran out the house, bare feet as she ran through the neighbor to Godfrey's house.
"Roman!" She yelled as she ran, hoping to get there on time.
Roman sat up as his mother's voice rang into his head.
To rise, a victim of your own hand.
It is the way of our kind.
Olivia rubs Roman's face as he looks around as he hears the cries of the baby. He stood up before heading over to the crib as he stared at the baby. Olivia walks over to him as she rubs his neck to his hair.
"Oh, darling, I always win." She spoke.
"You're not a warrior. You are a dragon. Do it." She continued as she rubbed his arms. As they started looking forward as the baby started crying. Roman started towards her before attacking her causing her to cry out which Kerrianne heard once she kicked the door open. She rushed up to the attic as she tried to get there.
After He pulled out Olivia's tongue, licking the blood from his lips with his fingers.
"You talk too much." Roman says before Kerrianne finally busts through the door. He turned to look at the person. Their bond called them together as he held her. Kerrianne slit a piece of her neck making him drink from her. Her blood rushing inside him calming his thirst down as she slightly moaned as he pulled her tightly towards him. As the blood painting made him look like an angel. Once he finally had his fill, he kissed her hard making her taste her blood on his lips. They pulled back before she said:
"Welcome to the supernatural world. We have a lot of work to do." Kerrianne said. She heard the baby cry before going over and picking it up.
She stared at the little baby, taking in the supernaturally colored eyes as the baby cooed at her. As she chose her as her new mother.
"Hello there, my hope my Nadia." Kerrianne whispered as Roman walked towards them holding Kerrianne close before they started leaving, as Olivia still laid there with no tongue.
Roman now changed into an all-black suit as he and Kerrianne walked down with the baby. As Olivia's voice ranged over them:
"But the crown, like everything, has its price.
I only hope you're ready for it."
