Immortal love (Caius)

Enemy of My Enemy

I opened my eyes but I knew I wasn't really awake. Why was I here? And where was here? "Solstice," a dark voice said and it sent a chill down my spine. No no, not again it was the cloaked figure from the airplane...the one who called me a Goddess of Darkness. "It has been quite the ordeal trying to connect with you again my Queen." The figure said as it came closer to me. I froze in place not knowing how to approach them. The last time I tried to attack I ended up hurting that poor flight attendant. "I am not your queen, I am nothing to you." I spat. The figure laughed and paced in front of me.

"Why do you fight me so? You haven't even tried to hear me out." The figure said in almost a hurt voice. "I don't know you and I don't trust you. I am not what you think I am...I just want you to leave me alone." I almost pleaded with the figure, I just wanted peace. "I don't want to hurt you Solstice. I just want you to meet your full potential. You don't have to limit yourself, anything you desire can be yours because you have the power to take it. You don't need to ask the earth for power because you don't have to ask for anything. You are a Goddess, an omnipotent being. You were a gift from the universe itself...you and your sister."

The cloaked figure said but I flinched at the mention of my sister. "Enough! How dare you? How fucking dare you bring her into this? Who the fuck are you? How do you know about my dead sister?" I practically screamed. The figure stopped pacing and came to stand directly in front of me. I fought the instinct to grab them by the throat and tear them to shreds. The figure laughed and I balled up both my firsts as I felt my gut fill with rage and my hands heat up.

"You have no idea what the truth is. You just know what you were told." The figure said in a way that made me feel like I was missing something. I felt a familiar feeling of dark magic trying to invade my mind. There was a voice or a feeling that wanted me to give in to the darkness. "It's you, you are the one from the woods, the one who tried to kill me at LaPush. You have been following me for years. You want my power, you want to bring eternal darkness just like mama said all those years ago...I won't let you. I am the last protector of the universe's gift and I won't let your vile black magic corrupt me " I said firmly as the darkness tried to poison me.

"Oh, my dear how you have been misled. We never wanted to kill you or steal your power. I only wanted to show you that you possessed this power all along, the power to give AND take life, to heal or to hurt, to bring light or darkness. You are the last keeper of the power of the cosmos. You are meant to rule over all, not hide in the shadows. Your mother was weak and she stunted your growth by making you fear the darkness. You are an apex predator, a god among scum...She just didn't trust that you were strong enough to have all the information but I do and so do your followers. We have waited for your ascension long enough." The figure reached up to stroke my face as I stood there with tears streaming down my cheek. They were lying... my mother would never keep something like this from me. I felt defeated and heartbroken. "You have to be lying" I hiccupped in between my sobs. The stranger caressed my cheeks deeper. "Why would I lie? I have been looking for you since the moment I felt your power surge. The day you lost your family, you unlocked a primal part of yourself, and when you were reborn after LaPush you tasted only a fragment of your full potential. Every time you have felt like you have lost control it was your power trying to manifest and help you be free. I have followed you for centuries. All I want is to serve by your side, I worship you and I would never hold you back as the others would. I am not scared of the darkness and you shouldn't be either Sol. Together we can rule...we could share your power and lead the people of this universe to greatness. For too long the beings of this earth have lacked leadership. You see there are false leaders who claim to hold some sort of power but they are ants compared to you... a lesser specimen. You can rule over them all." The stranger said as they got closer to my face so close I could feel the heat of their breath. I sat stunned as the figure held my face in their hands
