I drop to the floor exhausted as water comes crashing down around us. "You did it!" Daeva screams excited, everything we have ever done was to try and get my powers and now I have them. Water. Water is my power. "No, it can't be" Silas says in disbelief "nobody has ever been able to use that much power, it takes time, practice" he continues "a thank you for saving my life would cut it" I snap as I lift myself from the floor. Amara and Arwen come from the trees with a shocked expression "how long have you had your powers?" Amara asks looking at me "five minutes" Daeva jumps and bounces "Silas is right, it doesn't make sense, a feeling so powerful vampires should smell did you guys smell anything?" she asks as she looks at Daeva and Silas, they both shake their heads. "Oh my god" Daeva says as she stops bouncing, all of our attention is on her "well when I was trying to help you with the whole power thing I read books,lots and lots of books, some were..." she rambles "Daeva" I call her name to get her back on track "well this one book, it was old and torn to pieces but I remember reading about a witch who was powerful she had every element, water, air, earth and fire" she smiles "get this! Powers are delayed and sometimes undiscovered because it takes really really strong feelings to form and create that certain energy. These witches are no joke, they only exist one at a time, YOU COULD BE THAT WITCH!" She screams as she bounces over to me hugging me tightly" highly unlikely"I laugh in disbelief as she removes herself from me, everyone is watching me. Silas. Jasper. Daeva. Amara. Arwen. "I'm not some rare witch!" I state in disbelief. "But if you were..." Silas begins "but I'm not!" I say walking away, I need a minute. I walk back down to my yurt and flop on the bed, standing up to my mother just gave me my powers. "Bee?" Daeva knocks on the wood and pulls the curtain back. "Can we talk about it?" she asks as she lays beside me "you finally felt something strong enough to get your powers, it's a good thing" she says as she watches me "no, it's not" I reply "I felt strongly when Sherri was causing you harm but I couldn't stop it, I love you and I couldn't stop you from getting hurt" I say disappointed, "but you love Silas too, I can smell it, the smell has been getting stronger and I didn't know what it was until now" she says calmly, a tear escapes my eye as my emotions build up "I can't" I sob "I know" she pulls me in for a hug as she speaks and just holds me. "Me and Jasper are heading out tomorrow morning so we can find a library and I can do some research" she states "I can come with you" I say sitting up and wiping away my tears but she shakes her head "you need to stay here and focus on your powers" she responds. "Did someone say powers, oh wait I saw it all!" Asmodeus appears looking jolly as he joins us on the bed. "Don't let him stay long" Daeva demands as she stands up and leaves "it's getting late" I say as I kick off my boots and climb under the furs, I know I have had a nap today not long after we arrived but I'm so exhausted. "Want some company?" Asmodeus slides in beside me pressing himself against me "no thank you" I say as I slide away. He comes closer once again and if I move I will fall from the bed, he kisses the back of my neck and I like it, his lips are so warm, so soft. No. "Seriously!" I shout "can't blame a guy for trying" he shrugs as I throw my boots on and leave the yurt.
The night air was cold and it begins to rain but I don't care. I don't think I like Asmodeus so why did I like his touch, his lips on my body. Oh that's right because he's Asmodeus and he's in my head, probably right now, he knows everything and I can't escape it. "Argh" I scream angrily as rage fills me. My skin begins to burn and the wind picks up around me, leaves flying and trees throwing themselves with the wind "Beatrix" Silas calls my name and everything but the rain stops, the wind, the trees, the leaves, they all stop. "What the hell are you doing out here?" he says concerned "I'm" I throw my hands in the air "I don't know anymore" I sigh as he leads me towards his yurt. He grabs a fur from the bed and wraps it around my, rubbing my shoulders in an attempt to warm me. His hair is down, dripping wet and I want to watch him as he dries himself but I can't put him at risk like that. I don't know how strong or powerful Asmodeus actually is. "I'm sorry, I should go" I say as I place the fur back onto the bed and open the curtain to leave "Beatrix I know things are confusing for you at the moment and I know you're struggling but you are so much stronger than you think" he says approaching me, he takes my hand off the curtain and holds it in his. No. No. No. No. No. Don't feel anything. That feeling in the pit of your stomach is just the lack of sleep and decent food. "You need to realise how incredible you are, with or without your powers, but you need to be careful, this sacrifice could kill you and I don't know what I would do witho..." I cut him off "please don't, don't say what you're about to say" I plead as I take my hand from his and exit back into the rain heading back to my yurt where thankfully Asmodeus isn't.
I feel Silas, his hands on my naked body, gliding up and down as he caresses me, his mouth sucking on my nipples as I moan. His mouth glides up towards my neck and then my lips as he kisses me, I pull him close throwing my hands in his hair forcing the kiss to deepen. As I feel his fingers slide between my legs "oh Silas" I moan as he teases me "say my name, say my real name" is all I hear. Your real name? Asmodeus, oh shit. I open my eyes in anger as I slam my fists into the mattress beneath me "you're a dick!" I scream frustrated. Great, he knows. "We could continue if you like but this time in real life, I can be whoever you want me to be" Asmodeus appears in the bed I am now climbing out of "you are so not funny" I say making my way to the bathroom to freshen up. The wood to the yurt knocks and I hear Silas " Beatrix" he says loudly as he enters "did I hear my name?" he asks as he watches me rummage through the dresser for clean clothes "yes you did!" Asmodeus states as he reappears in the bed "oh my god can you just leave" I say frustrated "oh okay" Silas responds disappointed "no not you, you" I say pointing at Asmodeus "but we were having such a good time" he says sarcastically as I throw a hoodie at him and he disappears.
