Voltiaere's pov.:

You walk all the way to your room, not even bothering to check on your father. You head straight to the bathroom, where you try to wash off the blood you caused. You had never seen Brandon so confused with negative emotions. *How did it even come to this!? I was talking to my mother and.....and then he was dead. Did she have something to do with it? No, she couldn't have! She loved him as well. This is all my fault* you shout as you rip your sink away and against the wall. The water pipe broke and water started spilling everywhere. You just slide down the wall as all the events constantly replay in your head. The anger and pain soon left, as you felt numb. ,,All my fault,, you whisper.

--------------------------------------------------

Present day

,,Inermis have lost nothing in our world! I could have even accepted the mut, but an inermis!? And now the both of you!? No! I will not let a weak and helpless kind tarnish our pure royal blood!,, with that she stabs your darling.

You shout and scream for her, but she doesn't react. A guard walk in says something to his mother. ,,That always my fun is spoiled by work. Hopefully you'll be dead by the time I'll be back,, with that she leaves.

,,Y/n!,, you hear both Boru and Brandon shouting.

,,Darling!,, you try to call out for her, but she doesn't seem to hear you. You fight against the chain, but you are weaker than Brandon, so it was no use. You feel the pain of the wound and her life fading away. The door opens and you are ready to murder your own mother, but it wasn't her who walked in ,,William!,,.

He walks in with Ashton and Isaia. The two unlocked Boru and Brandon's cell as William helped you . He wanted to check on you, but you didn't let him.

You stumble to Y/n and untie her from the chair ,,Darling, it's going to be ok. William, you have to do something!,,.

He puts pressure on the wound, but sighs. ,,She's....been bleeding out too long, before we can even get to blood-,, you shake your head not wanting to hear any further about it.

,,No! She can't die! Please, no,, you hold her close, not wanting to lose her. Brandon was lucky to get a second soulmate. The chance of you getting one is zero to none and you don't even want anyone else, but her.

,,Volt, I think there is another way to save her. There is one other way to keep her "alive",, you know exactly what he means.

,,I love you too,, she whispers before closing her eyes.

,,Darling?,, you try to wake her back up, but it is not working.

William grabs you and makes you look at him. ,,Voltiaere, you have to listen to Brandon! If you don't do it, you will lose her forever! You are not his little brother, you are not the next heir to the nest, you are Voltiaere Phantom! The Soulmate of Y/n! Who is currently dying! It's your choice now! Only you can save her now or lose her forever!,, he says, but you were torn.

,,I- I can't! I'll kill her, just like last time,, you only tasted human blood once when you were still young. No one could have pulled you away from that poor boy.

,,It's either you risk that or she dies anyway! She's lost way too much blood, you have to turn her now or it will be too late!,, you look at her debating if you should let her stay peaceful.

,,How do I do it?,, Brandon walks around and crouches in front of you.

,,You normally would have to drain her dry, but since she already lost a lot you have to drain a certain amount,, he explained.

,,I need control,, he nods and you just sigh at the painful irony. ,,How much?,, you ask not looking away from her.

,,Just enough to leave the thinnest layer to transfer the vampire venom. You know how to release them?,, you nod rubbing your thumb over your cheek. ,,Ok, both William and I will keep an ear for her heart rate. You just focus on yourself,, you hold back your tears.

*Easy for him to say* both of them get set up and let you know when they're ready. Once they are, you kiss her on the forehead before you go down to her neck. You kiss everywhere, not only for your nerves, but to find the perfect spot. You find her artery between the neck and shoulder. ,,Forgive me,, you ask before you pierce her skin. You feel her heart beat naturally go up.

,,Voltiaere, you need to start,, you want to, but something happened what took you ages to get rid of. Your nerves got the best of you. Once again in your undead life, you were the scared little boy who wished to have the confidence of his older brother. ,,Voltiaere, you can do this. Whatever Vector and Valentina or even your own mind told you is not true! The amount of times you've shown confidence, even against me, could write an entire novel. I know you are scared of the negative consequences, but the worst that could happen will happen if you don't get your shit together!,, with that you started draining her.

As soon as her blood touched your tongue, you knew this was going to be difficult. She was different from any kind of blood you ever had. Just perfect to your taste. *I....need to....stay focused* but as you drank more, it was getting more difficult.

,,Alright, that's enough. Volt, you need to stop,, you couldn't though. ,,Volt, her heart beat is under 40, you need to stop or she is definitely dead!,, you pull away with all your might and a bit of help from the others. Running to the corner of the room you fight with your own instincts and try to stay there. ,,Is.....Is she?,, you ask scared.

,,We won't know for sure just yet. This method takes a bit longer, since she didn't have much blood to start with,, William said, feeding her some of your leftover blood and stitching up her knife wound.

Brandon comes up for you and pulls you in for a hug. ,,Sh- She's gone, isn't she?,, you cry. ,,I- I couldn't pull back in time,, you sob.

,,It's okay, I'm sure she'll be okay. We just need to wait. William will take care of her, as we take care of someone else,, Brandon says comforting you.

Your anger builds up once again. ,,How many troops?,, you ask.

,,17, 25 with the Alpha. We came in east and after she came out I was straight headed here,, Ashton answers.

,,Let's go. William if anything happens to her-/,, you start, but don't have to finish.

,,I know! I know!,, he brushes you off.

You hum and walk up to her. You push a stray hair away ,,Please fight for me darling. I need you in my life,,.
