Все главы Acrasia: Глава 21 - Глава 30

  *Sera's POV*         I submit to the darkness that consumes my mind, relishing any relief from my scorching body. Suddenly I feel as if I'm weightless, I'm floating in water.  My body doesn't belong to me anymore. As quick as relief came, it was over. I cry unabashedly, hands grasping at anything I can feel in my literal blind haste. I've never felt such horrendous suffering in all my life, and I've lived a dog's life as they say.         "Awake." That ominous demonic voice speaks and my eyes fly open against my will. I look up at the face of the being who had found me in Barima's house. He grins, mouth bloodied and licks his lips to clean himself. "You are shit worthless, but aren't you delicious. I have checked your claims against your old master's word, it would seem that you are honest. Therefore you will get to live until I find out what you are. I have a bad case of morbid curi

It took me an hour to get to the point. To swallow my pride. The words I have yet to say still lodged in my throat like a large stone. I can hear my grandfather's impatience as he waits for me to explain what I need. Easier said than done when I'm really not sure how to word any of this."Yeomorah has my pet. My favorite food source. I would find another, but without her I am weakened. I simply cannot fathom to feed from others now that I have had her. I wouldn't trouble you if it were avoidable. I had planned to bring her to you, as I don't think she is fully human. She...she smells human. Looks human, but she feeds. She has no family history known to us, but she has cambion tendencies. She also is completely opposite to a cambion in tendency. Physical strength far greater than one as well. No ability to tap into this on demand. You might be interested to study her as well-"

       *Sera's POV*             I cannot see now. I cannot hear. This is it! I have finally died. I am free. No more hurting, no more miserable existence to tie me down. Dense, lush darkness surrounds me and while it's a tad chilly, I am comfortable. In my mind I laugh. I almost wish I could see, that I could project above myself to see their faces when they find me gone. The game is over. Finished. I won.           My body is heavy as lead, and remains stuck fast to the floor, but in my mind I roam. I concentrate on this feeling until I can move outside my body now. Like a ghost I move, standing before myself. I kneel and smooth my hair down. It worked, I can move things. I ease my body over until it's free of the urine, tears and blood. I leap up and smack the sprinkler head do that it rains down, rinsing infuriates down the drain. I pass through the doo

We walk in awkward silence once inside the house. Samael smugly removes his shirt to cover his 'daughter'. I want to send the man away, but I don't have any other way to know about Sera's mother. I make a mental note to check into Ivara as we stride into the foyer. I sit on a bench, placing Sera into my lap as everyone gathers with curious eyes."I'll need special chains." I say to my father as he nods, eyes lingering on Sera's legs as he turns to retrieve the chains. I pull Sera into my chest tightly. I inhale her scent and pull her face into my neck as I feel her start to stir. I shudder as she wiggles, slowly coming into consciousness. I can't bring myself to care about the room full of eyes, I only want to soak her in. The weight of her in my arms, her smell. The way her lips part as she softly inhales. I do not look to her temple, where I struck her. I'm not ready to see what I done. I know there will be Hell to pay when she

    Seraphine is ashen and limp. I shake her vigorously and her head falls back. Asleep? She does sleep quite a bit if I remember correctly. I've never been around humans or hybrids long enough to know their sleeping patterns. Her body is much lighter than I remember though. I pack her to our room and deposit her on her side. I slide in behind her, stripping down and I press my body tightly to hers. I missed the feel of her little body against mine. The flutter of her heart, her soft whines and snores. It's euphoric to hold her again.         I've debated on where to go from here. I don't want her to learn how to use her abilities. I worry she might be nearly as strong as I am. Already she has managed to walk through the walls, utilize her speed and strength though not fully, absorb a soul, and summon other beings apparently. I run my hands through her scalp, feeling her energy flow through my fingertips. I press
