His Dark Obsession

Moving Forward

ZEDKIEL.

I stare down at her, those words ringing in my head. I don’t believe it, there is no way I would turn on my own kind.

“I understand your concerns, but you know that I wouldn’t throw away everything I have tried to stand for, for power.” 1 murmur, brushing her hair back, and gaze into those eyes that seem to be holding so many emotions.

I need her to believe that, if not anyone else.

“I know… I don’t want to believe it either, but we are cursed Zed… You, Zerachiel, Evelyn and I it’s a cycle that we are always forced into. Not one curse, but two. The Eternal God has, after all, doomed us for eternity too.” She whispers, and I can see the concern in her eyes. “Still, there’s no way I would lead a bloodbath.” I reply firmly, my eyes flashing.

“We can’t be so sure, maybe something will happen… It says being betrayed by your loved ones will lead to it… Maybe someone who you trust greatly. I don’t know.” She whispers.

There is only one person’s betrayal that can throw me over the edge and that is hers… but I don’t think she ever would. 1

“No.” I shake my head.

“Zed, there may be something that triggers it, or leads down this path. I think we need to be careful, this time we need to do things differently… I’m going to start looking for something that might help, regarding our past lives… There have to be some stories of the tragedy of our past, if things happened in the past that devastated our kind, those stories travel down in the form of myths and legends. Even Luna and Evelyn may know more. I will ask them… and Zerachiel… If he knows anything, he needs to share it, regardless of how mundane it seems.” She tries reasoning with me,

‘I know nothing, aside from how it all began and the constant mistakes you two make! But I have shared everything I know already. I have no further recollection of our past lives.’

Zerachiel says.

“He doesn’t have any memory of anything, save what he has already told us.” I reply, sighing heavily. “You know we have to try to put an end to it and if all they want is to have a word with me, then we need to use that.”

She’s worried. I can see it in her eyes, and she rests her head against my shoulder. “Zed… then we need to go together… I’m scared something will go wrong.”

I can’t blame her for that, there are countless things that can go wrong.

“We’ll think it over carefully tomorrow. With Kash being poisoned, I need to find out if there’s any way to heal him. He went there on my orders.”

“We need to find a cure and we will, together.” She corrects me, kissing my cheek softly.

“Hmm… you, my Little Mouse, have become someone who I am truly proud of,” I say quietly.

“Oh?” She smiles, and I nod.

“And someone who infuriates me half the damn time, but I wouldn’t change it. You’re challenging me, making me question what’s right and wrong…” I reply, kissing her lips softly.

She kisses me back, her heart thudding as she slowly sits back. There’s conflict in her eyes,

and I frown.

“What is it?” I ask.

She sighs, “There’s something else… since Selene is serving her sentence, it means I, her firstborn, am currently the Moon Goddess.” She whispers.

I stare at her, but for some reason, I’m not even shocked. It makes sense… That presence around her… that power…
