Another punch landed on his face as he landed on the sharp edge of the wooden stake. An agonising scream ripped through his chest as he immediately pulled out the sharp piece out of his chest. But before he could stand another kick send him flying onto the ground.

“Is this all you got, huh?” Michael grinned as he flexed his arms and cracked his knuckles before he rotated his neck to get rid of strain.

Draven smirked as he spit out the blood out of his mouth while he pressed onto his bloody chest.

“Still revolving around Lucifer’s pinky finger, I see,” this was enough for Michael to land another sharp blow to his jaw as crack of his bone filled the serenity of the forest.

“It’s no longer about him,” Michael pulled his sword out of it’s shield as he raised it above his head. “It’s about you… killing my friend..”

Michale snarled at Draven.

Draven shrugged his shoulders, smiled and slowly brought his hand behind his back and immediately blew out a white powdery substance on his face.

Michael screamed as his eyes burned with burning sensations. Before his vision could clear, Draven kicked him in the stomach and looked down at him.

“I’ll break anyone who’ll try to come in my way, it doesn’t matter who that person is!”

Draven growled as he sped towards the mansion leaving growling Michael on the ground.

Aphrodite spread her hands as wave of fire circled around her. Her eyes glowing amber as they looked up.

“Sisters! That’s what we were but look how gracefully you degrade this word!” Pain and anger was evident in Kyleigh’s voice as he looked at her sister.

“I never wanted to harm you, sister,” Aphrodite looked at her as her eyes glared with emotion. “… but your daughter will pay the price… she’s the reason my son is dead!” Kyleigh couldn’t hold what was she feeling. Pain, anguish or worse hatred for woman who she called her sister.

“Quit this madness and you’ll live.. I can assure you,” Kyleigh pleaded as her eyes shined with fresh tears.

Aphrodite threw her head back laughing as flames rose high.

“I don’t want to live anymore but before I die… I’ll make sure I take your daughter with me,”

Kyleigh couldn’t understand what made her hate her daughter this much. Aphrodite was always a calm and cool sould then what changed.

Kyleigh screamed as blood seeped through her stomach. She slowly looked down as her body jerked forward.

“Hello, Kyleigh,”

Draven pulled out the blade before again pulling it inside her stomach a she again screamed in agony.

“Goodbye, Kyleigh,”

She fell onto the ground as her motionless body surrounded by her own pool of blood.

“Thank me later,” Draven muttered as he looked at Aphrodite as a small smile crawled onto her face.

“Let’s finish what we started,” she mumbled before they both sped towards the mansion.

“Here’s to upcoming victory!”

I swiftly turned around only to see nasty smirk on his face.

“FUCK YOU!” I sneered.

“I like her, you know, but.. guess what.. this fiery spirit of yours will be burned down along with these flames.”

Draven smirked as he looked where I was trapped inside the fire circle.

“Missed me?” Elijah said as he stepped out of the dark corner. Draven didn’t seemed to be surprised as he just rolled his eyes.

“You were my favorite, Elijah… but I noticed you teamed up with enemy.” Draven sneered as I saw another figure behind him.

Aphrodite.

“I’m Switzerland, dear brother,” Elijah raised his hands in surrender as he paced towards him.

“But I really wanted to know, why didn’t you save me?” This was very first emotion I saw in his eyes. The pain and anguish was visible only for a mere second before it was blew away.

“I didn’t knew you were alive,”

“Why don’t you admit it, you didn’t wanted to know if I was alive or NOT!” Elijah’s hands fisted as his eyes glowed with rage.

What were they talking about?

“We don’t have enough time, the sun is setting,” Aphrodite said impatiently as she walked towards me.

I looked around for Lucifer but he was no where you be seen. I swear he sometimes scares me with his immortal speed. Where the hell was he?

“So why are you here?” Draven asked as Aphrodite pulled the pendant from her pocket before placing it in her plans a she chanted.

“ákou me, ypsilóteres dynámeis, voíthisé me”

“We need to prepare a body for her,” she suddenly looked at Draven who was glaring at Elijah.

For who?

He nodded his head before he vanished in thin air. These crack head immortals and their nasty powers. I was helpless and nearly terrified of everything that was going on. I had heard about everything in stories but now my life was going to be a story.

“ton piáse”

She screamed as same circle of fire formed around Elijah.

“Woah!” He jumped as flames rose higher.

“Crazy bitch,” he muttered under his teeth as his eyes glowed green.

“Fucking leave me!” My eyes widened as Draven dragged wounded body of very familiar face inside the damn room.

“LEAVE HER!” Elijah seemed to lose his calm as he growled with rage. A smirk plastered on Draven’s face as he pushed her down on Aphrodite’s feet.

“Well, well.. you were never into warriors, Elijah,” the mockery and tease in his tone triple Elijah’s rage as he roared with furiousness.

“My Queen, what is all this?” Artemis looked astonishingly at Aphrodite who paid no attention to her. I hadn’t known her intimately but she was a kind person by looks and by the way she was now victim of Aphrodite’s betrayal, I could tell, it broke her.

“Prepare her!” She growled as Draven pulled out a dagger from his waist pocket.

“W-what are you doing?!” I couldn’t stop myself from butting in as Draven plugged the dagger into her back. Her agony filled screams echoed as I helplessly watched.

Where are you, Lucifer?

“Noooo!” Elijah screamed as he tried to break free from fire but as he moved flames rose higher and higher.

éla se ména, vasílissa mou

Aphrodite breathed out as Artemis’s screams died down as she laid unconscious on the ground. My heart hammered inside my chest as I saw cruelty seeing through her.

This was insane!

“Is it done,” Draven asked impatiently as he rolled over Artemis’s body with his foot. Her eyes were wide opened as she stared into nothing.

She was dead.

Elijah’s screams were heart wrenching. I didn’t knew what relationship they had, but it visibly was a strong one.

Tears were pouring out of my eyes like water. And I hated myself for being so weak and helpless. I needed strength but I had nothing left to count for hope.

“She’s coming,” Aphrodite’s eyes opened as sadistic smile crawled onto her face. I nearly screamed as Artemis’s body moved slightly. What was happening? Draven looked wide eyed at her as she slowly stood up onto her feet. Elijah’s voice was silent as he himself looked flabbergasted at her.

“W-what is this?” My voice choked out as flames surrounding me died but I was still glued to my spot. I glanced at Elijah who’s body was asking immobile like me. We couldn’t move even if we wanted to. It was like an unknown force was stopping us.

“My neck hurts!” A groan left Artemis’s mouth as she cracked her neck. Something looked different about her, I couldn’t put my fingers on it.

“M-Melissa,” I hear it! I hear it LOUD and CLEAR! Die he just say Melissa!

Oh my god!

“Huh!” She turned around as she looked at Draven with raised eyes. “Who the hell you talking about, I’m no Melissa,” she scrunched up her nose as she looked around. Draven gummed with anger as he strode towards Aphrodite.

“WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!” he screamed as Aphrodite rolled her eyes.

“Ritual’s not over yet.” She muttered as she took the blade from Draven which he used to stabbed Artemis and plunged the blade into the ground. Artemis’s body shook as she clawed her throat.

Before I could say anything, Aphrodite mumbled something and wrapped the pendant around Artemis’s neck. And that’s when my eyes widened slowly and painfully, her body twisted as ear piercings screams left her throat. My breathing was abnormal and my heart was burning.

I looked in utter shock and confusion as her eyes rolled back and her hairs elongated with change in color. The black raven hairs cascaded down her back as her face demented.

My eyes were as wide as my mouth. This was bullshit!

Her eyes opened and her hairs flew behind her as a small smile crawled onto her lips.

“It’s good to be back,”

“M-Melissa” ait was now my turn to whisper in shock as my eyes landed on her serene and beautiful face. Her head tuned towards me as she walked to me. Her fingers snapped as I immediately felt myself freed from whatever force that was previously bonding me. I fell onto the floor as I looked agaped at her.

“Well, hello to you…” She crouched down to my level as her electrifying blue eyes peered down at me.

I gulped as I found myself at loss of words.

Her eyes narrowed at me as she looked strange at me before her blue eyes glowed golden.

“WHAT IS THIS?!” I jumped as she snarled angrily at Aphrodite who seemed to be as shocked as all of us. Draven’s mouth was apart as he looked loving at her and Elijah was looking with mouth wide opened.

“My love,” Draven whispered and Melissa immediately turned towards him. She immediately smiled as she walked towards him.

“Draven, darling, I’ve missed you…” She immediately jumped into his arms as he looked dumbfounded at her. But the shock was immediately replaced by recognition and emotion as he wrapped his arms around her tightly. Were those tears I saw?! Yes, they were!

Draven Fucking Vll was crying!

“I missed you, mi amore,” he cried out and Melissa Nuzzled her deeper into his chest. She was exquisite beauty with hairs as dark as night and eyes as brightened as ocean.

“Melissa…?” My head had never turned around with this much speed. There stood in all his glory, Lucifer, looking at her. And my heart clenched. He looked shocked, as glints of emotions glared in his eyes.

The look in his eyes were enough to tell me how much h he loved her. And this though along pierced my soul with thousands hot needles.

She quickly turned around as her eyes glowed with new excitement.

“My love…” Raw and visible emotions laced her voice as she looked at him before immediately running into his arms. He made ko move to push her away but didn’t either wrapped his arms around her.

“I missed you Lucifer, I missed you.” Desperation, eager, exhilarating words popped out of her mouth as lucifer looked shockingly at her. And I wanted the ground to tore apart and to swallow me wholly as his eyes looked at me.

My heart clenched as his eyes turned back to their natural color, icy blue.

“You broke our promise, but I’ll forgive you for that,” I heard her saying but I want stop entrapped looking into his eyes that were filled with love and pure desperation… for her.

I didn’t dared to look away as she parted away from him and planted her lips on his. I didn’t realised when tears of anger and betrayal poured down my face. I kept looking at them as he stared down at me as she hungrily kissed his lips.

“I’ll undo your wrongings,” she whispered and I heard it clearly but I ignored her words. Everything was done for me, my life, my hope, my affection, everything. I didn’t even cared if I died down now.

I had nothing left to live for.

“Melissa, darling, what are you saying?” Draven said and I glanced at him as he seemed bothered by affection between her and Lucifer, it looked like he was used to it.

I didn’t made any move to wipe away my tears as she pulled away but kept her arms around him.

“Oh! How impolite of me to accuse you of something which I know you wouldn’t do purposely,” she grinned as she walked down to me. Lucifer was glued to his spot, unmoving, staring at me with emotions for Melissa.

She crouched down to my level as her eyes pierced my soul. Her hands raised a she rubbed my arms comfortingly.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make it quick,” she whispered in my ear as her hands descended down to my torso.

“And I’ll make sure to give them a proper funeral.”

Them?!

My instinct caught as he rubbed her hands on my stomach. W-what-

“Lucifer broke our vow but I’ll right the wrong.”

“W-what do you mean?” I stuttered as I looked into her eyes glistening with evilness.

A smirk played on her lips as she leaned down and pushed the hairs from my face.

“You’re pregnant, and it’s high unacceptable for me,”
