: Chapter 28

Hours pass and every 30 minutes I sprayed the spot and Minsi made sure not to send it out. We had no choice honesty. We had to stay safe, for Blake. I find myself dozing in Minsi snaps me awake by banging her tail on the ground making the noise echo in my head. 'Will you stop that!' I yell.

She shrugs and says, '30 minutes are over, put it'. I take the can and spray. I was surprised to find it still full. With the amount I have sprayed plus the time I did, it should be halfway by now but it never seems to finish.

'Happy now?' I sarcastically ask her.

She rolls her eyes at me and closes them after.

'This dog,' I think.

'You do know I can hear you, right?' she says opening one of her eyes.

'That was the whole point,' I reply.

'Idiot'.

'B*tch,' I say and she bangs her tail hard, 'Okay okay, I'm sorry,' I apologize.

She just smirks and closes her eye. I start wandering around looking for something to waste my time on. I did have a cellphone but it was on low battery and I doubt this room has sockets. I mean maybe it would but I don't think there was electricity since the lights were off.

'I'm bored Minsi,' I tell her.

'Well do something,' she replies.

'Like what?'.

'Like deciding what to choose because it seems like you are confused between your past and your present life,' she says.

'What do you mean?'.

'I mean, decide if you want to be with Adonis or Blake. You can't keep on with this. I can sense Blake going feral and if you choose Adonis, he will die and you lose me too'.

'What do you mean he's going feral?' I ask her a bit confused.

'It means that he is losing control over Axel and if that continues his wolf side will take control and his humanity will be gone. The only thing that he will know is killing,' she explains.

'But if I choose Blake, the people I love will die'.

'Choose wisely Luna. Follow your heart'.

'I don't know what my heart wants. I yearn for Blake but at the same time wish I had stayed with Adonis long back,' I say.

'Well choose, you can't have both of me at once,' she pauses lifting her head and sniffing, 'Spray!' she yells.

'What! Why?' I panic.

'B**ch just spray!' she barks at me.

I quickly spray and she slowly calms down. 'What was that all about?' I ask her.

'I smelt a vampire but not just a normal one. It smelt of blood and death,' she informs me her body trembling a little.

'What is happening out there? Will Adonis be okay?' I ask again.

'It's a full moon tonight. It's a dangerous night for those not of the vampire race. The moon makes them get wild, making them feel the need to kill and drink blood. And...Adonis will be okay, he's also a vampire but we are not,' she explains.

'So this full moon...does it only affect vampires or others too?'.

'Luna, do you do mythology,' she asks raising an eyebrow.

I nod my head, 'So why the hell don't you about this!?'.

'I do Greek and Roman mythology, not this,' I tell her.

She sighs and says, 'There is a lot you need to know. You are lacking knowledge on all this'.

'Excuse me!'.

'Shhh, I'm trying to listen and smell'. I scoff as I take a book that was on the bed and I open it. Adonis' name was written on it. I begin to read and my heart melts with guilt and sorrow.

'Honestly, I can't stop thinking about her every second. My subjects are all worried about me and so are my family members. Almost any maiden who has at least one of her. Her beautiful smile that I saw when woke up, he flushed face whenever I teased her, and her perfect figure. Everything about her, I miss it all.

I remember a few days before I lost her, I was preparing for our anniversary. I wanted it to be more special and would last in her memory for a long time. I saw our relationship grow and I thought it was time to ask her. I thought she was ready for our relationship to strengthen. I was going to ask her the four words which were...'Will you marry me?'

All my life I was searching for someone to spend my life with. Someone who would raise me when I fell, with who I could share my joy, and my sorrow and also shower them with my love and my riches. After I found her and shared all those memories with her, I lost her to someone who I never thought could betray me and steal my Queen away from me.

Blake, honestly I can't believe you would do this to me. After my suffering, all my searching you just came out of nowhere and stole who I love. You left me alone with no one to hold. My mom left me too when you went, the one who raised us into who we are today. The moment you stole my love Blake, was the day my mom died, and blame you for everything.

My cousin stole what I cherished the most, the one person who I held close to my heart was taken away from me by someone who I trusted. I loved her and he knew that, but still decided to break my heart. But I will always love her till death do us part, and I will never abandon her that I promise. I will get you back.

Tears were already falling. "Adonis," I whisper when I hear a knock on the door that awakes Minsi and she starts panicking.

'Should I open the door?' I ask her.

'B**ch hell no. Are you mad? Do you want to die?' she yells at me.

'You just had to say no, not all that,' I say rubbing my ears.

"Arcane" I hear the voice say.

'Adonis!' I think.

'Luna, don't you f*ck*ng dare open the dang door' I hear Minsi say. 'Who said I am,' I say, 'But what if he's hurt or he needs help?'. 'Don't.Open.The.Door,' she tells me. I feel her push her way through to the surface but I push her away. 'What the heck Luna,' she whimpers in pain, 'Don't, please'. I don't know what was happening to me. I could no more control myself. I kept on hearing someone calling my name and asking me to open the door. His voice echoed in my ear. I could no more fight it anymore. I felt my body control itself and my canines grew out of my gums dripping with venom. In one wave of my hand, everything goes flying to the side. 'I never knew I could do that,' I think to myself as I smile. 'Luna, don't...y..you'll lose me, Blake. Please,' Minsi pleads and I come back from my trace. 'The spray,' I think. I was ten minutes late. I go to the pile of mess I had created looking for the can. I quickly shove the things aside and I find it. I quickly open it and spray covering my aura again. Adonis starts banging on the door and I start panicking.

The door was slowly opening as Adonis kept on banging on it causing the locks to break. Minsi was unconscious because of whatever had happened when I was being controlled. I couldn't believe I almost lost her, the person who sticks around when I have no one. 'I'm sorry,' I tell her. I see her smile a bit and I knew she had forgiven me. The door bursts open as Adonis enters the room shirtless with black wings following behind him. His hair was wet which made him look even more attractive. 'Snap out of it Luna,' I tell myself. "Arcane," my name comes out of his mouth smoothly. He looks around the room until our eyes meet. His mouth curves into a smile making the butterflies in me flatter but at the same time, it sends a shiver down my spine. He walks to me and I walk away from him. I was about to run but I find myself pinned to the wall. "Adonis," I whisper, "Leave me, don't...". He cuts me halfway through my sentence, "Don't what? I own you Arcane. You're mine," he says. "I am not an object to be owned," I tell him. "I never said you're an object. I just said you're mine,' he whispers in my ear. "I'm Blake's not yours," I snap turning my head away. I feel his grip on my waist tighten, and then I'm on the floor. "Arcane..," he says. He was laying his head on my lap, "I miss you, won't you come back?". I stroke my fingers in his hair, "I can't, Blake needs me," I whisper. "Please," he whispers and I hear sounds outside. He raises his head his eyes going dim. He waves his hand and the door closes and it is secured by a cupboard. 'Maybe it's a vampire thing,' I tell myself. "Stay," he says. "Adonis, I have a mate out there waiting for me," I tell him. "A mate who loves you for the sake of it". "I know he loves me with his whole heart". "Correction, with his whole mind," he says. "Take me back home," I tell him. "No. I'm hungry," he tells me grabbing my wrist. "So? Gonna suck my blood?" I reply. He smiles and says, "Great idea". "What!" I try moving but my body had gone stiff. He crawls to my face and gives me a heated kiss. I couldn't push him away so I bit his lip to the extent of making blood come out. Our lips parted and he licked the blood that was dropping on his lips. Some of it had entered my mouth. I see his canines come out and I knew I was about to die. 'No no no no, he can't be serious,' I shout in my head. He goes down to my neck and noses it. "This is gonna hurt but don't worry, you won't die," he whispers licking my collarbone. 'You think I won't die? Do you hear yourself!'. He rubs my cheek with his thumb as he chuckles, "You think too much Arcane," he says. I close my eyes as I feel his canines rub against my bare neck. My eyes rolled back, barely feeling the pain as Adonis sank his extended canines into my neck. I exhaled a weak, whimpered cry, saliva slipping past my parted lips. I felt his booming growl deep into my soul, his venom spilling into my veins from his bite, his jaws latched onto my neck as he slowly took his time to drink my blood. I went limp under him, my body trembling weakly, the cold burn of his venom traveling through me. Minsi went weak and it seems like she had disappeared for some time. I can't lose her. Everything started going blank and the last thing I could hear was my pained cries.
