His Dark Obsession

His Fated Obsession (Book 2) Chapter 58. Through Her Eyes

EVANGELINE.

‘Is it safe to leave him here?’ Evelyn asks suspiciously.

‘We don’t have a choice.’ I reply, glancing at Godric. We had returned to the army that had accompanied Jeremiah and it had only taken a single command to bend them to my will.

That power alone shakes me, and I know deep down it is not something I should be using on Earth. I don’t need to be told. I can feel the pull on the balance of life. My powers are not made for this world.

“I will be back soon. Fall back until I return, remain hidden.” I command, creating a shield to hide them. “Got it. I wouldn’t take long if I were you. The lust for blood and death is ever growing.” Godric says, and I shudder internally.

‘What a gem.’ Evelyn says sarcastically.

There were countless werewolves from all the allied packs united. Godric had his own men at the ready, but I hoped we could avoid bloodshed.

‘We won’t be able to.’ Luna says softly, as if already seeing what is to come.

‘Then we do what’s needed fast.’ I reply. ‘Luna… Let ’s end this. Tell me, if there was a chance at redemption for him, do you think Selene would tell us to end him?’ I ask as I walk away from our people.

For now, I have left them without answers, but it was vital for me to return to the castle and get to the source of trouble. We cannot afford to have enemies from the back and front.

‘I know, but it’s not so easy…’ She says brokenly. ‘If he dies… I won’t be able to survive. I want to die with him.’

My heart squeezes at her words, her pain and sorrow bleeding into me.

‘Please don’t say that.’ I whisper. ‘We will have Zed.’

‘You will.’ She replies. I don’t know what to say, aren’t we one?

But then I am killing half of Zedkiel…

Guilt wraps around me, and I take a deep breath, calming myself.

I scan my surroundings before taking a deep breath and raising my hand. I didn’t have time to waste and opening a portal is my only solution to get there fast.

‘I mean, I don’t want to intrude on this emotional heart-to-heart. But Zerachiel is also my mate, or was… and I survived without him. Stella survived without him… I survived without her… and it does hurt, but you can survive. Amongst the hate and darkness that is constantly eating up at me, there are times I wish I was dead… days I wish I wasn’t here. You have to do this Luna! Do it as retribution for what you did, for Stella, who died in vain. Do it so she finds peace.’ Evelyn says, with each word my heart breaks a little more.

She has been through too much… Why? Why did she have to suffer?

Yet her words are powerful, and I hope she can get through to Luna.

I open the portal, feeling the pull in the atmosphere and step through quickly, not wanting the portal open for long. The portal closes behind me and I look around. I’m in the dark halls of the castle.

It’s silent… and dark.
