Scarlet Price: The Forgotten

Chapter 26

Third Person POV*

Blood was the only thing filling Scarlet's senses and she was loving it.  She had a taste for blood and she was gonna have it. 

"Your life is mine."  Her quite voice said yet no one realized it was Scarlet, not even Kai.

Faster than his eyes could blink,  Scarlet was up and gone from the floor to behind the vampire king not even a second later with the nastiest grin he ever saw her give and now he knew just from the look on her face what Neon told him was true.  This, this was the type of vampire he remembered as a child.  With one quick move she had his heart in her hand only to see him shatter into dust moment's later.  She had done it.  Scarlet killed the false king of vampires in but only a second.  It was more or less over but she wasn't finished and that much was clear as everyone watched her lick blood from her hand and turning to look at the now uncertain witch who was now questioning whether the girl really needed her blood to kill the king.

"Your next for nearly killing my kids."  Scarlet gave off nothing but a deathly vibe that was beyond dark.  Going after the witch next who attempted to run out of sudden shock but was easily out run by Scarlet and her new found strength.

"Scarlet."  Kai called but he was ignored before another fight broke out and he was jumped.  He didn't have time for the games nor did any dragons find his mates new attitude funny as he glanced around finding Emilio the farthest away giving his mate a fearful glance.  He was too afraid to move just by simply looking at the woman even as a newborn went to attack him.

"Emil!" Kai yelled but rather than getting his attention Scarlet glanced at her mate then the young dragon not thinking twice before grabbing the vampire barely a second later but also knocking the poor kid over.

"Now isn't the time for fear Milio. Im gonna need you to focus, alright?"  She told him quietly with a hand flat on his chest and he nodded quickly but said nothing with a growl as she let him up jumping the first vampire.

"Ok." Was all Kai could say with a shake of his head before growling. The leader was dead but there was still a room full of hungry new vampires and older ones that wanted to get away while the new ones get killed but the dragons and super boosted Scarlet wasn't having it.  The witch momentarily forgotten and out of Scarlet's sight, assumed she was safe and free wanted to slip away while the vampire was distracted but the tiny bit of good still holding on in her was ready to be free and let go. Letting out little sigh, the witch put her hands up to cast a small spell hoping to get Scarlet's attention but as soon as she lifted her hands she was in front of her.

"Did you think I had forgotten?"  Scarlet asked reaching through to grab the witches heart but her smile fail as a metallic taste filled her mouth.

"Did you think that little light would last? You may have killed me but you won't survive your witches spell."  The witch whispered in her ear with a big grin before falling over as a growl shook Scarlet's body and arms took hold of her as she fell.

"Scarlet! Your out of time Alex do something!" Kai panicked hoping he was still listening and he was trying his hardest not to hearing Genie's cry.

"Im sorry Kai." Both Alex and Scarlet mumbled as he cast the spell and she tried to give her mate a smile reaching for him as all the vampires started to disappear one by one and Xanthe suddenly fell out back at the castle while her brother only stumbled suddenly feeling dizzy as he went to check his sister.

"What's happening Scarlet?" Kai asked seeing her start to fade just like the other vampires who seemed just as confused.

"A...Alex."  She tried as her hand fell and Kai held her close.
