Life does not flash in front of your face when you stand death within the eye; it is, in fact, all just pure horror. Who has the time to think about the things you have done and should have done in return when you are staring your end into the face?
Now the last thing I was to stare into the face now is the man that betrayed me and let us not forget the man that started this all. Which one do I wish to punch first?
"Victor, why? Why have you gone this far?"
"It is obvious, Sebastian, for love."
"My dear man, you have the wrong impression of what love is and even more skewed the way you find yourself to keep it."
"You have been nothing but trouble since Anastasia set foot in your life. You have put so many of our kind in danger, and let us not forget about the most important..."
"Lilith? Well, I have known my sister for her entire Vampire life, and this is the very last way she wishes one to express it to her."
While I am saying this,
Betrayal and revenge have become a frequent feeling that we have come to experience for so many times within the past weeks. Does this make the betrayal of a dear friend somewhat better? I do doubt that one can look past this and walk with a heart free of hatred. This man was a part of our lives for a great number of years; he was a confidant and, most of all, a trusted member of our Council. Did this give him the right to abuse what was given to him? Not only power but the hearts of so many that believed and had faith in him, he did walk all over that for his own misguided reasons. But one thing that never will be forgotten is the fact that he had betrayed the only woman that would have ever cared for him. So should I even dare to say that revenge was sweet once again?Now, this brings us back to our leader and his seven horsemen; what shall their punishment be? How do you deal with a human that has abused the power of the supernatural world? Not only the power, but he has b
Normality has returned to the Belmont House and the city; it has been three days since all chaos erupted. And believe me, when I say that I welcome the peace and quiet, I would think that the supernatural would have been stirred to such an extent that no creature would wish to stir for a very long time to come.These past few days have not only been draining but very emotional, some more than others. Lilith has not been seen around much; she and Stefan have kept to the confines of her room. Edward is left to pick up the pieces at the Council business and with the daunting task of finding a replacement for Victor. Our dear Vampire Hunter has retreated to his own little nest and is happily carrying on with his life. Anastasia, well, there is something eating at her mind."My beloved, what does have you so troubled?""Sebastian, do you like it when I turn into an Ancient?""Well, do you wish for me to be honest or lie?""I think I don't even need to a
…Anastasia POV…I should know by now that with every step we chose to make, that there shall always be some sort of consequences. Now it would be foolish to think that these consequences are in any way something that shall be welcomed. Well, let me think of it this way,is it such a bad thing to be a human? Only when the love of your life is a Vampire. Then take being dead; that is one which will rather be irreversible. But with that, another thought comes to mind, though, that is just completely absurd.But decision time has arrived for the full moon is starting to rise in the sky. Do I wish to end my legacy? Or stay this ungodly creature forever? My decision is as final as this spell."Please let us go ahead with this."Then Sebastian, with absolute horror on his face, turns to me as to plead the last time."My beloved, are you certain of this?""Please, Sebastian, let me do this. If I die, then you can get a spell
So goes the story of my life; nothing can run smoothly before something else goes wrong first. Taken all the battles we have gone through, I can honestly say that I always thought that the last was the worse than all the others before.Now what has become quite a custom is that I have been the one whom they shall turn when things start to fall astray. Not that I do mind this, but the pressure for failure lies even heavier on my shoulders. Despite what is assumed, I do not possess all the answers, nor do I have the ability to make things right all the time. Even though I shall strive to do so, I can not guarantee that if you come to request my help, that you shall find a resolution.But with saying this, I do and always will make sure that my loved ones will be safe and that they shall have whatever their heart desires. And in saying this, I would never regret a decision made to give them the safety and things that they desire.That is up until now.It is
I cannot truthfully answer Anastasia's question, for the only option for me is being a Vampire. She shall always be my one and only true love; the question is not what I will do; the question is, what part she shall play in my life. Not that I shall ever shy her away, it shall be more like if she will choose to have a Vampire in her life. For one, I can say that it shall be a rather dangerous lifestyle for her, and not to even mention that the community shall not approve of a human residing in the Belmont House.This is indeed a problematic situation that we do find ourselves in. I cannot tell her what to do, and neither can she expect me to choose between immortality and being a mortal. And as we have seen with these things, you cannot trust for something to go as planned. Who says if I taste Breyden's blood, that I will for certain become a human again.So it is with somewhat mixed emotions that we find our way up the stairs to our room; now this shall be where she s
Déjà Vu, a feeling that one has experienced a present situation.Anastasia and I have been here before, and do I even dare to say that it might go the same as the first time around.I do not wish for her to be accidentally bitten and then be turned into a Vampire against her will. There is a very big part of me that wishes that she would allow me to do it again. What does truly trouble me is that she seems to be considering staying human.But I do not wish to think about that now, for, at the present moment, there is the beauty that I want to lose myself in tonight. I genuinely believe that I can control my hunger for human blood, for she is my beloved, and that is what makes it different this time.So once again, "My beloved, do you wish for me to stop.""No, but I beg, do not turn me against my will.""I shall never harm you in any way, foolishness does carry itself as my middle name on the odd occasion, but this shall not be
…Anastasia POV…I have just experienced another moment of ecstasy that goes beyond being able to be described by a single word. Sebastian has proven to me that no matter if I find myself a mortal or a Vampire, that he desires me the same. To him, he sees no difference as it is love that drives him; his passion for our love, for our union, is beyond compare. For him to have not lost control and drive his fangs into me without my consent proves once more how much he cares for me.To think I was sitting and pondering if I should stay human is something that I cannot understand. There should not even be a question, a choice to be made. I want with all of this beating heart to be back with Sebastian, yes I do know that as a human, I can experience this desire, but I do not want to see my life just end if I can extend it.So I have foolishly taken the Book of Spells and am on my way to Elloise. As I leave the Belmont House in my rearview mirror, I pray t
Anastasia is in great trouble; I can feel it in my whole being. The strangest part of this is that I am feeling our bond dying. It seems that she is fading away from me. Is this what is suppose to happen now that she is human again? But there have been many Vampire and humans that have shared this bond; why should ours be any different? Did the spell indeed break all contact that she shall have with a Vampire?I do not wish to think which is the most logical explanation, for I do not want to discover one. All that I do need to know now is to get to her as fast as this car can possibly travel. So as I stare at Edward, I do not even need to make my question known, for he knows the exact thought that is burning a hole through my mind."My dear Sebastian, we shall get to her, and I want to promise you that we shall be in time. I have to fear, though, what time it shall be. Do you know of such a spell that can reverse this one?""Edward, I was not even aware of the f
