They all looked at serenity who halted in her place when she saw them. She closed her eyes frustratingly.
“What happened? Aren’t you going to save your beloved friend?”
Lucifer asked madly looking at her.
Serenity sighed tiredly.
“Kill each other for your own goodness… I don’t care…”
She mumbled and walked away.
Lucifer threw Arthur away.
“She doesn’t care about you three”
He mocked.
“You lost your place in her life… And trust me once you do that it’s impossible to change it… Serenity is very stubborn.”
“And you think she cares about you?”
Nicolai spat angrily.
“She knows that we can kill you at this very moment still she didn’t save you”
Arthur chuckled.
“You three live in your own world, don’t you?… She didn’t save me because it’s a reason behind it… You still have no idea what’s going on with her, do you?”
He asked.
“And you call yourself mates… Open your eyes, come out of your arrogance and look at her, look around… I know she hates me but i know how to change that, you know why?”
He challenged.
“Because I know everything about her… I have spent whole century with her, not just few years… We were not mates but our relationship was stronger than mate bond, if it wasn’t for Eliana’s spell then we would have been still together because she values feelings more…”
“What’s wrong with serenity?”
Vincent asked.
“Find out by yourself if you call yourself her mate…”
He challenged.
“Kill me now if you want because I am going to try every possible thing to get her back…”
“We accept your challenge… Let’s see who wins… She is our mate and you can’t win against destiny. Destiny has given her to us.”
Lucifer replied madly.
Arthur scoffed.
“Right, destiny chose her for you, not she… She chose me, without any bond. I was her choice… If it wasn’t for mate bond then she wouldn’t even have looked at you.”
Vincent clenched his jaw and grabbed him by collar as they got offend by his words.
“You three don’t deserve her”
Arthur wasn’t ready to step back.
“Relationship is not all about sex and control… It needs love and respect to cherish it, need trust to thrive in, care to bloom… And you three couldn’t even trust her…”
He threw reality on their faces.
“Serenity is the purest soul in this world. Evilness can’t even survive around her, don’t forget she possess pure elements of nature… There are many witches who wants to become supreme and they can borrow extreme powers from these five elements but none can control, balance and sustain it because they need pure blood, soul and intention not greed, evilness and arrogance… Serenity has all qualities to deserve this power that’s why nature has choosen her… And you think she can kill her own daughter, how stupid of you to Even think that. You don’t know her value, you don’t deserve her…”
Kings were listening to him stunned, they realised that they have made huge mistake of their lives.
Arthur laughed at their reactions.
“You never tried to understand her… If you would have done that, you wouldn’t be in this situation… You treated diamond as a piece of glass… I pity you.”
“I don’t want to kill you, Arthur…”
Vincent said in a challenging tone.
“And i won’t let anyone else kill you… You know why? Because I want you to see her in our arms again… Thanks for opening our eyes, we know we fucked up but that doesn’t mean we are going to give up on her… She is ours… We will win her back…”
“Even if we have to do anything for it, we will win her back…”
Lucifer said.
“May be we don’t deserve her now, but we will definitely become worthy of her…”
“Because she Belongs to us”
Nicolai said looking deadly at him.
“Let’s see who wins”
Arthur challenged.
“Your destiny or my love and passion”

On other hand serenity sat on the stairs as she was feeling tired and couldn’t walk anymore.
Her whole body was hurting.
Still she stood up and walked towards the garden where she have to water plants but when she reached there she saw plants are already watered.
She looked up and closed her eyes frustratingly.
Arthur was standing there in uniform of volunteer.
“This is my work now…”
“Arthur, stop interfering in my life…”
She said.
“I am just doing my work…”
He shrugged.
“We both know what are you trying to do…”
She replied.
“Because I love you”
He stated.
“And i don’t… Not anymore”
She stated.
“Why? Because your sister casted a spell on me? She made me sleep with her because she wanted to break you… I am victim too… It’s not my fault… We Were happy, we still can be happy… Leave everything and come with me.”
He said desperately.
She shook her head.
“We are not meant to be together… You are not safe with me. You needed to hide whenever I used to loose control and i was always worried that some day i would hurt you… My enemies were always targeting you…”
“Then why you were with me?”
He asked.
“Because you thought i am your mate?”
She nodded.
“Yes, because i thought we are destined to be together… But it’s not true. You are not my destiny and it means someone else is waiting for you, who deserves your love and care… Find your own mate Arthur… You are someone else’s destiny, not mine…”
“I don’t believe in destiny… I don’t want someone else… it’s just you…”
He pleaded.
“You know my decision, i can’t talk more than this…”
She said tiredly and turned around to leave.
“Why are you so eager to die… Don’t you want to know what happened to your daughter? Who killed her?…”
He said and she halted in her place.
