the shadow demon 7

PoV Victor
I looked at the thing in horror. William was crying really hard again. I didn't know how Jack convinced everyone we should be executed, nor did I understand why we had to die.

I just knew I had to save my beloved William from this fate.

Suddenly he took my hand. When I turned to him, he was looking at me with such big, teary eyes, it brought tears to my own.

"I love you, Victor. I love you so much. I'm so glad I got to meet you.", he told me.

"It was an honor meeting you. You truly are special.", I replied.

"Oh, shut it! You two are truly pathetic.", Jack claimed.

Suddenly the door burst open.

"Jack! What are you doing?!", a woman cried out angrily.

"Mum?", Will sniffed.

"Easy, Scarlet. We're doing what needs to be done.", Jack chuckled.

"You will not kill our boy! Or anyone at all. This is wrong!", the woman said, walking past me.

"Oh, come on! You can't want these bastards to live!", Jack stepped away from the machine.

Suddenly the woman hit him straight across the face.

"Have you lost your mind?!", she yelled at him.

William squeezed my hand gently. Suddenly a wave of power flooded through me. Was he giving me parts of his own magic?

"Get out. Leave me behind.", he whispered. Then he squeezed my hand harder and send me even more power.

"I'll come back and get you. I promise.", I said. Then I used the big amount of power to turn myself to a shadow, out of magical reach. Then I teleported away.

PoV Will
I felt my body hit the floor. To much of my power had had to be transferred to Victor.

I heard yelling around me, but I didn't see or feel anything. I was numb.

Then I passed out.

~~~
I woke up in my bed, fully regenerated.

"What happened?", I asked.

"You passed out from exhaustion, after you helped a criminal escape. Oh, and Jack tried to kill you.", Bill told me. He was sitting next to my bed.

"Is he save?", I asked. Bill chuckled. "You really are in love with the shadow demon. That's fucking weird, bro.", he said.

I smiled softly and went back to sleep.

When I woke up again, I was alone. I stood up carefully and walked to the window.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!", I called.

Mom entered the room with a worried expression.

"William, baby.", she sighed.

"Mom. Thank you for saving me.", I sighed.

"Oh, well. Jack's going crazy. He had no right to do that. William, it's time I tell you something about your shadow demon.", Mum spoke up.

We sat down at my table.

"It was a long time ago, when your father and Jack were 1600 years old, that Jack fell in love with an outcast. Victor was powerful, but kind and sweet, caring even. His parents weren't alive anymore and everyone knew he was odd, but Jack was attracted to that. Victor was craving love and attention, so they started dating.

They were a beautiful couple. That was, until they got older and Jack grew colder. He wanted his lover to be more demonic and evil, Victor didn't want to. Jack started cheating on him and the shadow demon kept forgiving. Until, one day, he didn't. They had a fight, which ultimately led to Jack convincing the old demons to cast Victor out of their dimension. I guess he's still mad.", Mum told me.

"I need to go back, Mom. I need to be with Vic.", I said carefully.

She nodded.

"You'll always be welcome here, William. I'll make sure you can return safely. "
