❤️ I’m Sorry But You’re Mine (Part 2)
❤️ Elena laughed out. “I see what you’re trying to do here.”
“Can you do it or not?” Amaya asked with clenched teeth.
“Easy, but you have to take me to where he is.”
“Do you take me for a fool Elena? Do I look like the Vampire Prince to you?” Amaya asked with raised brows.
“Easy there, I was merely testing you, since you’ve grown weak, I thought you will reveal Dark’s hideout.”
“Whatever. Tell me what to do.”
“Give me the leaf,” Elena said and Amaya gave her back the leaf and watched as the witch brought the leaf a few meters away from her mouth and she began making her incantation, her hair flying behind her. Her voice grew thicker and thicker and she spit on the leaf. The spit dries off immediately and she gives the leaf back to Amaya. “That will do.”
“Hope it will work.”
“It will, Amaya, trust me.”
“The plan is still on and apart from the three of us in this room, no other ear should know about it,” Amaya said. “And one more thing, do not tell Raziah about her past until we have gotten what we need from her, only then will I continue where I stopped years ago.” She added.
“We don’t plan on telling her.” Before Elena could finish her statement, Amaya was gone. “I hate when she does that.” She said glaring at the spot Amaya was standing before.
“You took a big risk when you told her to take you to Dark’s lair,” Chaos said to his Mate. “I feel he is not hiding that far from me. Where could he be hiding?”
“Why will Amaya change her mind? She ought to be happy that Dark will die soon. So all my waiting has been in vain. What a life.”
Chaos begins to laugh out loud.
“What’s funny?” Elena demanded picking offence.
“I just remembered something that escaped my mind, my love.” Chaos answered after he stopped laughing.
“What could it be?”
“We’ve forgotten to collect the gene and eye of the Sun from Raziah, Dark needs to stay alive. His darkness attracts them.” Chaos answered. “It escaped my mind, if I had remembered on time, burning up Mary’s corpse would have waited.”
“So that’s why she wants him alive and not because she loves him?”
“Yes, probably that is the reason she wants to save him since we were not thinking from that angle.”
“Let’s leave Dark matter for now and discuss about Amaya.”
“What do you want to know about Amaya?”
“What you haven’t given me an answer to since we met Chaos,” Elena said. “Who is Amaya to Raziah and why is she hell bent on taking the power in Raziah away?”
“It is a secret that is not meant for me to tell.”
“Does it have to do with Raziah’s past life?”
“Soon my love, the story will become clear to you until then don’t step on Amaya’s toe, she is as ancient as me.” Chaos told her. “I need to rest. Dark is still alive and I hope Amaya turns him against Raziah, which will be easy for her.” he added and was gone.
Elena yawned and went to rest, she was tired.

Dark’s Castle:
Amaya appeared in Dark’s room and quickly went over to where he was. Without waiting further, she placed the leaf inside the open cut at the side of Dark’s face and sat down on his bed, putting his head on her lap as she waited. She watched with fascination how Dark’s bone started repairing itself and the blood flowing out of him stopped. His skin covers the leaf.
Amaya began stroking his head as she remembered how she had met him as a child years ago. Lock up in a cage meant for wild animals, the cage was built in a square form but little that could hold a rabbit. His dark eyes were what attracted her. She could still remember her conversation with the boy like the back of her hand.
Flashback: 191 years ago…
Amaya entered the dragon palace as the guards there now down to her acknowledging her presence. It was at that moment she saw him, his cage tied up to one of the pillars there.
“Who is he?” She asked aloud, pointing at the little boy in the cage which was dangling in the air. The guards were used to her presence and had seen how close she was to their ruling Queen. In fact their Queen was the one who had given them the command to respect Amaya.
“He provoked the Queen my Lady and she asked us to put him here.
“Bring him down.” She ordered but the guard made no effort to move. “Are you deaf? I said bring him down!” she yelled out. ” Clean him up and bring him to my chamber.”
She left her presence and went to the guest room given to her by the Queen.
Few minutes later Dark was brought to her. He stood at the door even after the guard has left.
” Why did you provoke the Queen?”
“I did not provoke the Queen, I only asked her a question and she locked me up after she beat me up and broke my legs.”
“What question did you ask her?” Amaya was curious .
“You can ask her yourself when you see her, she is your friend after all.”
Smiling down at him. “Where is your mother?”
“She is dead.”
“What’s your name?” she had asked.
“I don’t have a name.”
“Oh, I see. Then can I give you a name?”
“I can do that myself my lady, I will give myself a name that suits me better when the time comes, but for now, I want to kill the Queen.”
That caught Amaya’s interest. “Why do you want to kill the Queen?”
“Me and the Queen have unfinished business.”
“You are speaking as if you can defeat the Dragon Queen.”
“I thought I could and now I know better, but I will have to train more.”
“If you are strong, why didn’t you escape from the cage?”
“I know you’d come and free me. I have been watching you for days.”
“My name is Amaya, I’m a demon.”
“I know you’re a demon, I’m also a demon too.”
“So can I become your friend?”
“Demons and demons are not always trustworthy, you know. If you are not careful they can betray you.”
“I see you’re intelligent.”
“I know a lot of things.”
“Then be my friend, I’m trustworthy.”
End of FLASHBACK:
They became friends and a few years later Dark returned and destroyed the dragon kingdom, the kingdom and its people that had made him shed a lot of tears.
But then, she started developing feelings for him when she discovered who he truly was, but Dark couldn’t see it. He still sees her as a friend and not someone worthy to be called his ‘Lover.’
Even though she is saving him yet again, it wasn’t his time to die. He still has a lot of things she needs from him apart from his love.
‘I’m sorry Dark, but you’re mine right from the beginning. We are meant to be together. That’s why we keep finding ourselves again and I will fight to keep you by my side and myself.’ Amaya thought to herself.
Waiting for Dark to open his eyes is like waiting for him to declare his love for her. His breathing had returned back to normal and he wasn’t pale any more.
Wake up Dark. Wake up.
As if on cue, Dark began to cough out as he opened his eyes weakly.
“Amaya?” he tried to sit upright but the pain he was feeling couldn’t let him. “Why am I feeling so much pain?” He asked
Amaya smiled, he remembered her.
” I am so happy you’re alive.” Amaya began. “You were beaten and nearly killed but luckily, I came just in time to save you and brought back home and you healed.”
“Why was I injured?”
“Don’t you remember? You fought Raziah and-”
Interrupting her.
“Who is Raziah?” He asked.
Amaya was so happy inwardly but didn’t show it. It worked.
“Raziah is our number one enemy, she refused to hand over her kingdom to you.”
“Why can’t I remember all this?”
“You were gravely injured.”
“You can leave me alone now Amaya,” Dark said and Amaya nod her head. “Thank you for saving me.” he turned to leave his room.
“You’re welcome Dark.”
“Get prepared, once I am fully healed we will attack Raziah kingdom. I am going to give her a dosage of her own injuries. Let her get ready for me.”
Amaya smiled widely as she left his room.
Raziah should get ready to feel and see Dark’s wrath.
Dark manages to stand up to his feet and make sure his black mist covers the entire wall in the room including the door except for the wall made of mirrors.
Whoever the bloody Raziah is should buckle up her belt because he is coming for her. She will see the other side of him buried deeply inside him.
His beast inside him snarled in excitement.
He walked towards the mirror laughing like an insane man as his body began to enter the mirror.
He would make sure she suffers.
