“Please! Please Selene. Let me take over? I want to be the one to rip her fucking head off. LET ME OUT!” Hazel pleads with Selene, but to no avail. Selene stealthy makes her moves. She quickly gets the upper hand on Carrie, forcing her to her knees and gasping for air as the numerous cuts in her body from Selene’s katana make her heal much slower than usual due to the special markings she secretly added with the help of the wizard that had created the swords for both of them along with the rest of the girls in the Sanborn camp they had attended together.
Selene slowly makes her way, raising Carrie’s chin to look at her with the tip of her katana. “IT’s over Carrie. No more! I want nothing more to do with you! I’ve had enough of all this. I don’t care what my
real mother do to you. But I for once, am tired of all this. Just let us be. Enough of all this hate towards us.” She begs her, tired of having to find one heart ache after another. All she wanted, was to be allowed to go home with Blake by her side and live in peace.
“I will never let you live in peace you wretched girl. Not as long as your mother forbids me to go back home. If I can’t return home, neither will you and your brother.” She gets up, and charges against Selene again, causing Selene to fall on her back and making her drop her katana.
Carrie quickly charges against her, aiming straight to pierce her heart. Selene closes her eyes and awaits the tragic defeat. In her heart, wishing that Blake makes it out, and is given a fair chance to find another mate. After all, this, was her fate after all right? To sacrifice her life for her mate, from the very beginning.
But to her surprise, everything goes black, and she feels at peace with herself as she opens her eyes and sees Hazel standing next to her.
She quickly stands, petrified and horrid next to Hazel demanding for answers.
“Haze? What? What happened? How am I here next to you? Are we?”
Hazel places her nose on Selene’s palm, a small whimper escaping her.
“It’s Amber. She took over. I told you she’d come in the nick of time. She’ll take care of everything now Sel. Trust her, please.”
Carrie’s sword ricochets back, sending her back and making her fall back. Her eyes widen in surprise. She glances back towards Selene’s direction and her mouth gawks open in shock as she sees the glistened aura around Selene’s body.
“You! How dare you intervene between Selene and me? I told you to take over her body if given the consequence of her having the upper hand on me. Not the other way around.”
“No more of this nonsense Carrie. I don’t want to hurt you. End this quarrel, now. She’s your own niece. You can’t keep doing this! I won’t let you. And I certainly will no longer help you.” Her voice breaks for a mere moment. Fed up of putting Selene through many torturous events through their past.
“You will do as I say! Or I will put your ass back where you belong. Or would you rather I talk to my brother Hades? You’ll be a great collection to the small group he likes to personally torment.” She smiles evilly at Amber, making her eyes widen.
Amber knows quite well what she is doing. She is trying to scare her. To get her to coward away and continue to do her dirty work for her. Just like Joseph had done with Selene.
“No, Carrie. You will no longer use me. And I will no longer allow for you and Joseph to hurt her, EVER again. This is the last time you ever get to lay a hand on her and her brother. Your hatred towards your own family has bitter you to an extent that not even I would of dared to say. Your brothers would be disappointed in you Carrie.” Amber tilts her head in shame and disgust, making Carrie sneer in anger.
She had always hated the fact all of her siblings had great powers, and hers had been partially stripped away because of her mother, the day she was thrown out of the gods and goddesses realm.
“You bitch! I know what you’re doing. But believe me, that if you so dare to defy me and work against me, I will make sure that you regret it. I will kill you again like last time. And this time, I will have fun torturing you slowly!” She reaches out for the katana on the ground and steadies herself to charge Amber.
Amber glares angrily back at Carrie, lifting her hand and making the katana fly across and landing directly on her hand, making Carrie gasping in shock as she stares at her own hand. “You bitch!”
She darkens her eyes. Lifts her head high and scrunched her nose, slowly, she gets the crystal out from her blouse. She knows it will have enough power to kill both Selene and Amber as well. But she will have to find a way to kill Tyler and Blake if Joseph fails to do so.
“What the hell do you think you are doing? I am giving you one last chance to make up your mind, or I will make sure you end in limbo again you stupid witch! and this time, for good, you will have no way out. Do you understand me? Now do your damn job, and finish off Selene.” Carrie stands to her feet, turning on her heel and begins to walk away to grab Selene’s katana on the floor.
But before she can grip the katana off the floor, Amber uses her telepathy again, making the katana fly across the field and landing next to Blake’s feet. He glances over towards the direction where the sword was tossed. His eyes widen in shock, but quickly grabs the sword off the floor as he sees more vampires launching towards him.
