Claws of the Dragon

Chapter 9

Alcina felt anger rise inside her, seeing your bleeding form on the ground. She waited until you were taken away, then she inhaled, making Moira stop talking. "How dare you. How dare you even think it was okay to push (Y/N) like that. You ought to be ashamed of yourself!" Alcina snapped out. She walked closer to the now quivering woman, rage fueling the strength in her muscles. She tried to ignore the one thought nagging at the back of her head. She's right, they'll never love you.

"How dare you hurt them. How dare you hurt my love." Alcina gripped Moira's forearm, pulling her to face the countess. She ignored Moira's wince, gripping harder and yanking again. She heard a loud scream and met Moira's eyes. Weightless in her grip, she held Moira's arm. Her weightless arm. She saw Moira fall to the ground, blood pouring from her open wound. She looked towards Daniela, worry flooding over her. What have I done? Alcina dropped Moira's arm, taking a step back. Daniela rushed to fix the situation, grabbing the arm and trying to help Moira up. "Don't touch me!" Moira shrieked out, squirming away.

Alcina stood in shock, the muscles in her body bunched up, but she couldn't do anything. I did this. "You're all monsters! You're all nothing but monsters!" Moira shrieked out. Daniela gave a soft sigh, pulling out her scythe and slashing out her throat as a mercy. "She served us well." Daniela mumbled. Alcina stared at Moira's form, taking a few steps back. Your voice echoed in her mind. As if I'd ever love you. Alcina almost fell on the stairs, running off as she heard Daniela tell her that she'd take care of the body.

Running into her room, Alcina pressed her back to the wall and door as she felt her breath unable to catch. She looked around, hyperventilating as her heart continued to race. She fell onto the ground, hat falling off. Laying on her back on the floor, Alcina placed her hands on her chest. She couldn't hear anything, panting as her heart practically beat out of her chest. I am a monster. I'm a monster. I am unlovable. (Y/N) thinks I'm a monster. They will never love me, ever. It took Alcina almost half an hour to calm down, tears streaming down her cheeks. I'm unlovable.
