Silver Satin (Book Two)

30-Part 3

30.

Immanuel looked over at Becca and she bit her lip. She was looking a little frazzled. "Can you unfreeze just her head?" He asked. Becca hesitated but nodded. Byhalia and Ezekiel walked over to stand in front of Julianne and Becca waved her hand and unfroze just Julianne's head. The rest of us stood in silence. Imannuel by Lucas and I, Amber by the boys and Connor and Octavia by each other.

Julianne came out of her little frozen coma and shook her head and then tried to move her body. "What in gods name is going..." she stopped talking as soon as she saw her mother and father before her. Her eyes grew wide. "Julianne," Byhalia said as she gently traced her daughters face. "You're supposed to be dead!" Julianne hissed. Byhalia sighed. "In a way we still are, we are just here, much like your Scarlett was 17 years ago," she said.

"Why have you caused so much harm to people, especially the wolves, we raised you to be a leader, to have power to rule not to destroy," Ezekiel said sorrowfully. "To rule, people have to be scared of you,' Julianne snapped. "That is not what we taught you," Byhalia said sternly. "We taught you to love everyone, to use your power to aid you in battles with enemies, not with innocent people!"

Julianne laughed. "The wolves are hardly innocent, cross breeding within the packs, with humans, creating more abonantions like the one that helped to bring you back. How are those not my enemies? How is Eden not my enemy? She was born of the Metzger Pure Blood Line, she is the only thing that can kill me and here, my own parents are, doing her dirty work." Julianne cried.
"We do not want you dead, and neither does Eden, she knows what would happen if she killed you, everything and everyone she loves would be gone. We have a different agenda for you and Eden is no longer part of it, she has fufilled the destiny that we laid out for her many years ago." Ezekiel explained.

My head was spinning with all of this information. "What are you going to do then? You already cursed me with the touch of acid what more harm can you cause me!" she yelled. "That was not a curse it was a blessing that you turned to a curse, love is the ultimate curse and we tried to rid you of that, if you hadnt loved that boy nothing would have gotten in your way, you would have been a fantastic ruler!" Byhalia cried enraged.

"I wanted none of that! I wanted nothing but to love him! But I couldnt because every touch I could have gave him was ruined by our first kiss! I burnt him to a crisp because of you! I might have turned into the ruler that you had wanted but the acid touch was my downfall, I want nothing more than to be rid of this and then to watch you both die again!" Julianne said dejectedly.

"We are sorry that you feel that way, but in due time all will be well and life will go on, for he is almost here,' Ezekiel murmured. I looked at Immanuel who was looking around the riverbank for whoever this "he" was.

After a moments silence, Julianne let out a murderous scream. "You've all betrayed me, every single one of you!" "Silence," a deeper voice commanded. I jumped and grabbed Lucas' hand. He gripped it tightly. An elederly man was walking the riverbank, he was slouched over and had a slight hump in his back. "Kanchi it took yourself long enough," Byhalia said smiling.

"Well Im not as fast as I was 5000 years ago, I started down here when I heard them arrive, I just need breaks, for my breath likes to cease on its own whim," the male said. "You get away from me!" Julianne screamed. She was still frozen from the next down but I could tell Beccas was getting tired and couldnt keep this up much longer.

'Should have sold tickets to this show," Connor said jokingly. Octavia slapped him on the arm.
"No can do, I created a problem 5 milenia's ago by giving you your magic, I intend to rectify by problem," Kanchi said wheezing slightly. "NO YOU CANT TAKE MY MAGIC!" Julianne cried, tears were free falling down her face now, deforming her once beautiful features into what could only be described as a hot mess.
