Chained to the prince of darkness by Lunasads (books for 10th graders TXT) 📖

Nothing.

The shock was too great; my mind was running wild, my thoughts were scattered all over the place, my emotions were undescribable and yet I felt nothing.

My mind processed her words, but my heart, my heart was in it's own dilemma. But then again I felt warm and soft inside. I wanted to cling onto that feeling but then reality knocked harshly on the door.

I was going to die.

"I-I don't-" 

"Oh come on! Don't tell me you didn't knew, don't give me that look Draven," I watched as she threw her hands in air and groaned in frustration, but again I shut her out. I wanted to endure this feeling, this motherly feeling....for the last time. 

"She's pregnant and I can very well hear the heartbeats, then why can't you?” 

Heartbeats?

Like magnet my eyes immediately rushed towards him and for the very first time sentiments, emotions reflected into his blue eyes. Those blue eyes, without any idea, I was falling for them, I wanted to see my shadow reflecting in them. I somewhere deep down, inside my heart, wanted to see love in them...for me.

For once.

I had seen love in them but not for me.

"But no problem, I've got everything sorted. I'll kill her myself." I was no longer scared, probably this was what I wanted all along. But I was too scared to admit. 

"Like hell, you'll!" My eyes followed the loud voice as four frames came into view as my blurry vision cleared with haziness of sadness. 

"I remember, I remember everything..." It was Angelina, her wound on her neck was nowhere in sight. But the fire in her eyes was something I had never seen. 

She fumed as she walked towards Melissa as everyone looked astonished at her.

"YOU, YOU betrayed us!" She pointed her finger at her as Melissa rolled her eyes. 

"You still alive? Oh! How I wished you were dead," Melissa's words seemed to confuse us more and more. But no one said anything. 

Angelina immediately turned towards Lucifer who was staring at me. Why? It wasn't like he cared for me. I was his puppet, dancing with snap of his fingers.

"She killed herself! She was the one who killed all those witches! I saw it myself but then she played her nasty game...she compelled me!" Angry, hot tears flowed down her face as she screamed and Lucifer blinked his eyes before setting them on Melissa. 

Melissa rolled her eyes before leaving a stressed sigh. 

"I had to do that! It was not like I had any choice left, I was alive for five hundred years and nature wanted balance so I sacrificed another five hundred years, resting in ashes, pouring my powers in this piece of pendant...but now that I'm back....I'll make sure I send you to hell!" Melissa gritted as she fisted her hands and strode towards Angelina. But before she could touch her, lucifer pulled Angelina behind him.

"You're not touching her!" He growled. At least he cared for someone other than himself. I glanced at my left as I saw Elijah's drained self laying on the ground with eyes open but without moving. He was alive but he looked lifeless. 

"Stay away from her!" Draven sped towards them as he pushed Melissa behind himself as he glared at Lucifer. 

"No, no, no! This wasn't how it was supposed to be! We were meant to be together, Luc..." She sighed as she removed Draven's arm that was wrapped around her and stared into Lucifer's eyes and leaned in before putting her hand on his cheek.

My heart clenched with uneasiness.

"I love you, Luc..." She muttered and tears flowed down my face like a waterfall. I never knew, breaking of heart felt this much painful.

"I need the truth, Melissa," He said as his eyes glowed red. Melissa sighed as she moved away before ripping the pendant fom her neck.

"Love-"

"He needs truth, Draven and I am going to give him truth the he deserved," She kept looking at him as she threw her pendant on the ground, under her feet. Her body moved, her eyes closed as she raised her arms at her sides, palms open and lifted them. And I looked startled as black fire rose around her. Her aura took over the power, staining it red.

It looked like she was ready to ravage everything, she wanted her powers to flare up. 

And I gasped as she opened her eyes, the pupils of her eyes were as dark as her hairs, raven, pitch black. 

"Your ancestors made mistake and you all will pay for it. But,“ She trailed as shadows surrounded her and her power raged.

"Stop this bullshit!" Lucifer snarled as he pushed Angelina behind him away from Melissa. I backed away as flames of her black fire tickled my skin. 

Lucifer's muscles flexed as he sped towards her. His canines elongated and claws descended. 

She laughed a cruel laugh as fire flames rose high. She shoved her hands forward as black and red flames races towards me. 

I screamed as flames burned my skin. 

"STOP IT!" I heard his raged and furious voice as he sped towards her but she raised her another hand and send him flying backwards. 

Her powers were uncontrollable. She didn't wanted to be controlled.

"Why are you doing this?!" I screamed as flames caught my feet. Draven's and Victoria's panicked shouts were all around and in between them I heard another very familiar voice of Damon. 

"Why am I doing this? You've no idea what I've been through! I watched my loved ones die! I am not what I look like...I'm far worse," With this heard another scream that left Damon's mouth as he landed share against the wall with blood all around him.

"MELISSA!" Lucifer growled as he tackled her body onto the ground before slamming her hard against the wall.
