He tensed.
"It's okay if you don't want to talk about her. I'm sorry ".
" It's fine. I met Octavia when safe land was still getting built. She was beautiful, powerful. She drew me in completely. I fell for her ", he chuckled but it held no humor, "She was a demon ".
I held my breath.
"I thought she loved me back. I would always leave safe land to stay with her. She was always hiding in the forest close by, she said she didn't want to get killed. I was so blindly in love, so stupidly in love that I neglected all the wierd shit she did, all the times she would ask me wierd questions about safe land".
"Questions like ?".
"Questions like, are you building tunnels too ? Where are the secret passages ? She even asked for a map. Sometimes she would disappear for days, without informing me. I didn't think much about it. Till it happened ".
He tensed.
"One night vampires attacked, hundreds of them and there she was at the front of it all leading them ".I gasped .
"We won easily, but few hunters were killed. I still blame myself for their deaths, because if I hadn't given her the information she knew, that battle would have never happened. She wasn't who I thought she was ".
"You killed her ", I said remembering Devon's words.
"I had to, and you know what she said to me before I shoved that stake through her heart ? She said, Didn't they teach you in that safe land of yours to never trust a demon ? No remorse, just pure evil ", He sighed.
"I'm sorry ".
He shook his head, "Don't be".
" We were told in the orientation that there has never been an attack ".
He nodded, "We like to keep it secret. If people know there was an attack, they wouldn't trust this place ".
I kept quiet even though I had so much more to say.
" Just promise me that you would stay away from that demon Kira, he's dangerous. I still remember when we found him, he was hurt pretty badly but something just didn't click ".
" What do you mean ?".
" Vampires hate demons just as hunters do, even more. If truly they had attacked him, they would've killed him ".
"Maybe he teleported ", I reasoned.
"That was what the general said. But he didn't teleport when he saw us, he just waited. Like he knew we were going to bring him here".
"Maybe he was too weak".
Calvin shook his head, "Kira he's up to something. Octavia was working for the vampires, and I think he is too. He's acts too damn good for a demon. It doesn't make sense ".
Octavia was working for the vampires, and I think he is too.
The words rang in my head.
"He's planning something I know it ".
I kept silent as I kept thinking about his words. I didn't even know when we reached, and entered our building till we had gotten in front of our rooms.
"Get out of your head Kira ".
I shook my head, "We're back ?".
He chuckled, "I need to see the seer now ".
"Thank you so much for everything ".
He smiled, "No problem ".
I gestured at my body, " What about this ?".
