The vines and plants spring to life to act as natural restraints. I'm both surprised and impressed at the power that fell out at my fingertips. I've never used my mother's power with such success before, and I'm not conflicted with the dark high that follows my father's power.
Shock seems to cloak the glowing orange eyes. Obviously, it hadn't known it was fucking with a witch.
I hear the cracking of the vines restraining the creature, and I start running again before it has the chance to escape. Breathless and terrified, I reach the edge of the woods, coming out behind Gage's house.
I start to rush to the door, but Kane's voice jars me out of my attempt.
"Alyssa! What the hell are you doing out here?"
Shit! I have to get him out of here before that lycan catches up.
"Kane! Go! We have to go! There's a-"
Before I can speak again, the lycan crashes through the threshold of the forest in a mad dash for me. The desperate desire for my death radiates in its eyes. I start to summon the power, knowing I'll forever scar my love, but I don't have a choice.
But before I can release anything, Kane appears in front of me, catching the airborne beast by the throat. I gasp in disbelief as the lycan cries out in pain from his crushing force.
No. No. There's no way. Please, God, no. No!
Kane's eyes glow blue as he growls at the lycan.
"What the fuck are you doing, Amy? I'll kill you for this!"
Amy? Oh no.
My heart breaks and the pieces plummet to the ground. This can't be happening. This has to be a nightmare. Wake the fuck up, Alyssa.
With a grunt from his exerted effort, Kane launches Amy backwards, throwing her lycan body back into the forest. Trees crack and break against her as she disappears into the darkness.
I scramble backwards as Kane turns to me, his glowing blues dulling back to green as his vampiric side slinks back into hiding. Sickness attacks me without mercy, and I double over to expel the contents of my stomach in the most ungraceful manner.
"Alyssa, baby, it's just me. I know this is a lot, but-"
"Night stalker." The hushed words flow through my lips like a blasphemous whisper.
He tilts his head, confusion seeming to gather in his traitorous green eyes as I back away again.
"What did you just call me?" he asks, a touch of disbelief and anger mingling in his tone.
"Kane!" Amy screams, her human body back intact as she runs toward us with a robe covering her nakedness. "She's a fucking witch!"
Pain, anger, and so much more flashes through his eyes. All of this was an elaborate hoax. I was tricked into loving the enemy. My hands burn with fury as the silver grabs me and tries to pull me to the darkness, begging me to release my devious power.
"Gage!" I cry out, but he doesn't come... doesn't hear me. I turn to Kane, my eyes watering. "It can't... You can't... I've seen you... How? Why?" I sob out, my tears pouring down.
"You damn witch! You fucking trickster bitch!" Amy growls, and suddenly the sound of shredding fabric rings out as her body distorts and changes in front of my eyes.
Her flesh turns from a tanned glow to a gray ash as the lycan rises to the surface. She launches herself at me again, but Kane grabs her, and rips her back. I don't give him the chance to take me down himself.
Using the energy around me, I slash through Gage's bedroom window, shattering it as I scream once more. "Gage!"
Within a blink, he materializes in front of me, and his eyes gauge the craziness as Kane's glowing blue eyes jump forth to show his defensive stance before he slings Amy behind him.
"You," Kane whispers.
"What the fuck?" Gage gushes, but I jump into his arms and throw my legs around his waist.
"Get us out of here!"
