ZANE
“Blaire I’m here in New England” I said but she couldn’t understand me and since my body was getting weaker and weaker our connection through telepathy broke.
The door flung open and the girl who was with Gizelle walked in. I don’t know if she’s a witch or a human, I just want to taste her blood and regain my energies.
“Can you bring me a glass of water?” I was as polite as I could be. She thought for a while before bringing me a glass full of water. Extending her hand she offered me the glass.
“I can’t move my hands, could you please come near and help me with it?” I asked and hesitantly she took steps closer to me.
“Could you please bent down a little so that my lips could reach out the glass?” and when she did, I made no delay in ripping off her throat and sucking the blood, satiating my thirst with her blood. She layed dead on the floor when there was not even a drop of blood left in her body. Silly girl, didn’t know that vampires don’t erase their thirst with water, but blood. “Your absurdness lead you to death” I said to her dead body. Now that I’ve regained my energies, this ring won’t be able to keep me trapped in. I closed my eyes, and awakened the demon inside me and with all my powers I broke the magic of the ring and came out of it. I wiped away the blood from my face when I had finally freed myself and healed my wounds that had occurred because of the tortures of Gizelle.
“I’m an elite, who knows how to turn pain into power. And now, you have very little life left” I said out loud.
“I hope you’re not talking about me” voice appeared from behind me but before I could turn to face her, she rubbed something on my back which made my body numb and I instantly fell down on ground. My eyes were open but I couldn’t move. Darkness covered my eyes as they were slowly getting closed, my brain reminded me of the promise that I had made to Blaire, to kill Gizelle.
“I’m sorry Blaire, I couldn’t keep my promise and I’m sorry for I won’t return to you”
“I love you Blaire” I whispered before death layed it’s cold hands on me.
BLAIRE
“I love you Blaire” tears came streaming down on recalling the moment when Zane had said those three words for the first time on our first date.
“I love you too Zane” I shut my eyes and whispered hoping that he gets the message.
“Why did you kill him, you silly witch?” On hearing the sharp, angry voice of a man, we halted outside the house where Zane was kept.
“Witch!” exclaimed Eric in shock, Suzan covered his mouth with her hand to stop him from uttering another word and we don’t get caught eavesdropping their conversation. My heart raced, hearing the word ‘kill.’ I hope Zane’s fine. We peeped inside the house through the window. The man’s back was facing the window so we couldn’t see his face but the other person was obviously Gizelle.
“I had no other option” argued Gizelle “That ring was meant to keep him trapped inside and weaken him but instead of getting weak he became more powerful. He killed my cousin Jane and if I hadn’t rubbed wolfsbane on his body, then he would have killed me as well” I crossed my fingers and just hoped that they’re not talking about Zane. The man growled in anger.
“Even I wanted him alive, at least till the full moon night. I needed Zane’s powers, which would make me the strongest and most powerful witch of all but what do I do? I had to kill Zane. There was no other way!” I felt a jerk on my heart as if someone had hammered it. My knees weakened and I slipped on the ground, struggling for breathe. Suzan, Eric and Adam said some consoling words but I couldn’t hear them. ‘I had to kill Zane’ words rang again and again, my mind refused to act or listen anything.
“Listen to me” Suzan shook me hard, trying to bring me back to my senses. I can’t believe that he’s dead. I don’t want to!
“This can’t happen, he can’t be dead” I kept on saying. I looked at the ring that fitted well on my finger and my mind took me to the thoughts of Zane, the time that we had spent together may it be at Hamilton pool or the fun that we had on top of the hill. New Year’s night was the best when he proposed me for marriage and put that ring into my finger. ‘I had to kill Zane’ Gizelle’s word played in my mind again and I watched all our memories fade, and it broke my heart into million pieces. I can’t explain the pain I am going through.
Anger started forming in my head and the pain in my eyes were now replaced by anger. My eyes were still shedding tears but of anger not pain. It’s not the time to sit and cry but it’s time to kill Gizelle and whoever her partner is, behind Zane’s death.
I wasn’t the one who would pick up the sword and go seeking revenge when hurt but now I am. Gizelle has hurt me many times in college before, and I had always let her go but not this time. This time, she is going to see a different side of me. The side she’d pray she’d never seen. It’s time to give her the taste of her own medicine. The man to whom Gizelle was talking had left the house and now only Gizelle was there in the house. It’s time to make use of my sharp fangs. I headed towards Gizelle in anger, to kill her but was stopped by Eric, who stood in front of me, trying to stop me.
“Don’t stop me Eric”
“This not a good idea. Use your brain” he said.
“Better I make use of my fangs” I slammed.
“Blaire, we know you want to kill her, we all want to. But we won’t be able to do that without a proper plan” Suzan said holding my hand.
“She’s right. Zane was a powerful vampire, if he couldn’t kill her then how can you kill her when you have just been turned” said Adam.
“Look we are not saying that Gizelle will be left alive. She has to die! And we will kill her but now is not the right time. She’s a witch and we need a solid plan to kill a witch” said Eric.
“Then she’s alive until we come up with a solid plan against her” I said and everyone nodded their agreement, I extended my hand and Suzan placed her hand on top of mine, followed by Eric, who placed his hand on Suzan’s and Adam, who placed his hand on Eric’s hand, symbolizing a silent yet firm promise to ourselves.
