Darkness: Land of Nightmares

XXXIV

Tahlia Anna Belle Monroe was standing on a bridge, where commoners walk to get from one side of the other without interfering with traffic, it was nighttime and a chill breeze, she could see the lights of the cars and street lights that lit up the roads, and could see the trees to the left and right. There was a long line of bushes that went as far down as the road did, Tahlia was leaning over the railing with her red long sleeve swing midi dress on. She was then met by another woman named Asia Ella Jane, she walked up to Tahlia and stood next to her.

"I brought you this victor hugo rose, it matches the color of your dress," Asia said.

"Thank you my beloved, you were always so thoughtful," Tahlia said.

"How couldn't I be? I'm in love with you, in love with your extreme intelligence, nurturing, compassionate, loyalty, and independence," Asia said.

"Of course you are, you're another person that has fallen in love with me out of the millennia that I've been around, another person thinking that they deserve my love," Tahlia said.

"One thing I've learned living as long as I have is that nothing lasts forever, eventually you'll go on about your life and forget all about me," she added.

"I won't forget about you, what I'm feeling is genuine, and if I don't win you over then I might as well accept that I truly don't mean anything to anyone," Asia said. Tahlia then turned to Asia and stared into her eyes.

"Who you are is enough, they'll miss you when they realize they failed to find someone like you. You shouldn't beat yourself up, you can't win them all," Tahlia said.

"I'm not sure why you're painted as the bad guy, you're nothing like what you're made out to be," Asia said. Tahlia simply smiled and looked back at the road beneath them.

"You know Asia, you're the only girl out of the thousand years I've lived to show endearment towards, love comes in all forms and looks differently to everyone," Tahlia said. Asia smiled then reached for Tahlias' hand and held it, intertwining their fingers together.

"Then let's make the most of our time together before you go off saving the world again," Asia said. She then placed her other hand on Tahlias chin and guided it towards her direction, she glazed into Tahlia eyes which were an ocean that Asia dreams reflected. After all, sometimes all life asks you to do is stop, see and appreciate.

Their faces enclosed as their eyes closed slowly embracing for the kiss, eventually their lips connected, the kiss was sweet, passionate, soft and gentle. Tahlia was lost in the kiss for a while, as their lips parted and reconnected for a few seconds, she then gathered herself and pulled away.

"I'm sorry, but at the end of all of this I'll come looking for you," Tahlia said. She then teleported, leaving Asia by herself on the bridge, alone.

Asia thought to herself: Someday we'll live happily ever after. As Asia was a siren and immortal just like a hybrid.

Tahlia was at the hybrid coven, one of the few last stops in order to get what she wants, all thirteen talismen.

The entire coven was filled with hybrids ranging from five-hundred to two-thousand year olds, their coven was one of those that wasn't to be messed with because of their immortality and superiority over vampires and werewolves, and even most mages.

The hybrids sensed Tahlia coming and felt the danger of her presence, their eye irises turned purple as they stopped what they were doing and headed directly towards Tahlia, who was walking throughout the biome nonchalantly and the plants around her were being killed. She walked along with her beautiful red dress and the victor hugo rose Asia got her.
