Chapter Thirteen: Where The Heart Rests
Kara made her way down the hall that was outside of their temporary room. She wanted to be away from Gabriel right now. He was being completely ridiculous about everything. And Kara refused to be around his attitude. He would calm down, it would just take some time and then they could try talking again.
Kara makes her way throughout the building, eventually finding two guards standing outside a room. " Is this Margerat's room? " Kara asked which the guards answered with a nod. " Can I go in and speak with her? I just..I need her guidance on some stuff " Kara asked, and after some debating, the guards let Kara pass into the room.
Margerat was preparing herself for bed, when she notices Kara standing in the door way. " I Know you dont want to speak to me right now. And I know you are dissapointed. I just..I can't be around Gabriel right now " Kara fidgets. Whilst she wasn't exactly wanting to speak with Kara at the moment, Margerat finally relents. " Fine. Come and sit down" She pats the bed for Kara to sit down who does. " What is the problem? " Margerat Sighs.
" Well..remember the Gwen girl I had mentioned before" Kara referred to her earlier explanation. " Yeah. The Vampire who is going to take over and such" Margerat nodded in agreement.
" Well, me and Gabriel...we have had our issues. And before we got together..me and Gwen had something. And then then died..and then Gabriel died..and when he died, I realized what I had with Gwen wasn't real. It was just me being upset that I couldn't be with Gabriel. And I feel bad about it. But eventually, Gwen came back and wanted to pick up where we left off. I turned her down, I couldn't be with her knowing full well what I had done to her. And on top of that, I loved Gabriel. And then Gabriel came back somehow too. And we got together but Gabriel has doubts that I want to be with him.." Kara explained which Margerat was surprised to hear how much added stuff they had been through. " How the hell is everyone coming back there? " Margerat thought to herself and then tried to focus on Kara. " Well you are not still in love with Gwen right? "
" No..I'm not. I'm in love with Gabriel..but it did bother me seeing Gwen with someone else.." Kara confessed which seem to put Margerat in deep thought.
" Well, If you were truly over her..I wouldn't imagine that it would bother you as much " she pointed out, which only unsettled Kara more.
" I'm not in love with her! She isn't Gabriel.." Kara growled which made Margerat snap back. " Don't take that tone with me. You may be a big and powerful witch but I am not going to take your attitude. You say that she isn't Gabriel which is true. But that isn't really a denial of love for her. That is just pointing out a fact. And on top of that, just because she isn't Gabriel doesn't mean she hasn't earned or deserve your love. I know a bit about how things work where you are from. The destiny bullshit. But love isn't suppose to work like that. You can't help who you love. And to be honest, if you and Gabriel were destined to be together, I highly doubt you would've both been through so much to even achieve that. To achieve something where you find your heart not in it. I can't sit here and tell you what to do with this situation. All I can say is that you owe it to both of them to figure out where you stand. Because if there is one thing that is clear from what I have learned and seen, you have no idea where you want to be" Margerat explained.
" I was plucked from my home and taken somewhere completely different. I don't have a damn choice. Not as much as people think. And the world is suffering because of our bad decisions" Kara says, Margerat's stirring deep within her mind..
" The world is suffering because of the immaturity you both have. But you two are together and look at the situation. Nothing has magically repaired itself just because you two are together. Maybe you two weren't suppose to be together with. Maybe being hung up on one another was what messed up everything. It seems like most of the decisions and mistakes you both made were based off of the love you had for one another. It seems like nothing good comes from you two being together whatsoever. And it seems your heart knows that too. Your heart knows where it wants to be. The question is, when you really stop and allow yourself to think about it, does your heart really rest with Gabriel? "
