LOGINSylvia James sent another ball of his magic towards me. This time I caught it and used my own magic to hold it still, but I didn't know what the fuck to do with it. Anywhere I sent it, I risked killing someone else again. And it's not like I could send it back at James... he would anticipate me trying to use it against him. I heard James laugh as the weight of the bright orange orb grew, and I realized it was getting bigger. That mother fucker was adding to it! James was one of the first warlocks... he also decided to go to the dark side. In one aspect, he was stronger than me, but only because he had been around so much longer than I had and he was using dark magic. My magic was newer, pure ..... and I was Hecate's fucking daughter! I may not have Darcy or Rhi here to help me .... but I could take this piece of shit on. I just had to think .... I could send his magic out .... but I risked killing anyone it came in contact with, and I couldn't let that happen. I could send t
Maeve Kayin and I gave in to the darkness, and it .... felt ... so .... fucking .... good. I could understand the addiction to dark magic, as the pleasurable pain released endorphins that made the unbearable moment completely euphoric. The screams of pain coming from those Kayin was slowly killing as her howling attacked their minds started to please me in ways I couldn't begin to explain. "ENOUGH!" she screamed into my mind, snapping me back to the light and making Kayin immediately stop her attack. Aunt Rhi?! "You will not be taking any lives today, Maeve!" she yelled over mind link. "I will NEVER allow the darkness to consume you!" But they're taking innocent lives! Kayin is SO fucking close to ending this! "It is NOT your place to be judge, jury, and executioner, Maeve!" Aunt Rhi snapped back. "Bad things will always happen to good souls, but everything happens for reasons that can't always be explained. It's not about understanding why the journey is happening; it'
Darcy When I arrived at Fiona's, there was bloodshed and death in every direction. As humans fought to kill, the supernatural fought to live, and I couldn't help but wonder if I should have simply brought Robert and Cara here to begin with. Fiona could have healed him, and at least Cara and I would have been together when the fighting started. Instead, for reasons I couldn't explain, I was drawn to go to Seth and Rhi. "Cara .... where are you?!" I said out loud, hoping to connect to her telepathically. I could feel that my daughter was safe, and I hoped that the sudden sound of my voice didn't distract her from protecting herself. "Mom?!? I'm OK, I'm with Brett," Cara answered quickly, but just hearing her voice was all that I needed to ease my mind .... slightly. While looking around to find out where I was needed the most, I wondered how many selfish individuals were in hiding with their cellphones in their hands, recording the brutality to share with others for attention,
Rieka Everyone thought creating the mind link between all supernaturals had knocked me out, and that's exactly what I let them believe, because I needed them to believe it while I figured out what needed to be done. Ironic, really. I guess that I'm not all that different from Julia after all. We may not be related by blood, but I now completely understood why she did everything she did. As my body seemingly lay unconscious on the bed, my spirit was able to see what we all had become and what was happening to the Earth that we all lived on, but were completely ignoring. Those I loved and those who put their trust in me to protect them only saw the battles that were happening in front of them .... but I saw everything. It was clear to me that this was a fight that everyone would lose, with each side suffering great loss by the time it was all said and done, and the earth going up in flames. That was something I couldn't allow to happen. The whole world was slowly giving in to hatr
Cordelia Harlee and I were sitting on either side of Rhi, watching her as she slept with Amar lying across her body. "The smelling salts didn't work; I didn't know what else to do," I said quietly as I reached down and gently moved some of Rhi's brunette hair out of her face. "I'ma slap the bitch awake!" Harlee informed me as she stood up and swung her hand back. "HARLEE!" I yelled out in a vain attempt to stop her, but before I even had a chance to grab her arm, Amar stood up, his hackles standing as he bared his teeth and started growling at Harlee. Harlee raised both her hands in submission and slowly started backing away, but Amar continued to growl deeply. As Harlee and I turned and looked at each other, Amar leaped from the bed, his body changing from a sleek and elegant weimaraner to a large, gray wolf as he took slow steps toward the bedroom door. As I opened my mouth to ask what was wrong, Darlene Harris appeared on the other side of the opened bedroom doorway, po
Aurora Natasha gracefully charged towards the battle between supernaturals and humans without hesitation. One would think that this would be an easy win for us, but I quickly realized that those working for the government had weaponry designed to easily kill us all, regardless of what supernatural being we were.While we honestly didn't want to kill any more of them than we needed to, some of them didn't leave us much choice. The heat that was being produced from the ground below us was more than enough to tell me that Luke and the others had their hands full down below, but how could we get the bloodshed to stop without killing those who were trying to kill us? A man in full military gear raised his firearm at Natasha, and she evanesced out of the way right before the trigger was pulled. I quickly shifted back into my human form, reappearing just in time to slide on the ground between his legs and punch him square in his gonads as I slid behind him. As he dropped to his knees, c
