THE LAST KISS♟️

The blinding light faded slowly, casting long shadows across the room.

I blinked, my vision struggling to adjust, when I saw her

Emra.

The air thickened around me as the bats flapped and circled, their wings deafening. Emra stood before us, like some kind of haunting queen, her dark cloak flowing around her as though it had a life of its own.

She wasn't alone. A bald man with cruel eyes, and Jane, the housemaid, flanked her.

I recognized Jane immediately. My heart raced as I watched them approach.

Taehyung stepped in front of me, his eyes wide with fear but determined.

"Stay back, Tamrah."

I barely had time to respond before Emra's laugh shattered the silence, a sound that sent chills down my spine.

She clapped her hands once, and before I could even react, The bald man , Nathaniel and Jane sprang into action.

"Nathaniel " Emra snapped her fingers and the bald man came up with a Chain and handed it to Jane.

"Let her go!" Taehyung shouted sheilding me, but Nathaniel stepped forward, his face twisted with disdain.

"Not so fast," Nathaniel growled, and with a swift motion, he punched Taehyung square in the chest. The force was brutal, sending him crashing into the wall. The mirror shattered as his body slammed against it. He lay there, half-conscious.

"Taehyung!" I screamed, panic clawing at my throat.

The housemaid's hands shot out, wrapping cold metal around my wrists-chains. I struggled, trying to break free, but the more I fought, the tighter they seemed to pull.

"Taeh..." I cried

Emra's voice, soft and poisonous, filled the room as she walked closer to him.

"Your painting fairy is here, Taehyung,too bad she won't live long enough to be your model" she cooed, leaning down to him. "You thought you could save her? You couldn't even save yourself."

She reached out, fingers brushing his cheek before slapping him hard across the face. I felt my heart break as he lay there, unmoving.

"This is the price of defying me, Taehyung," she whispered, her voice cold as ice. "You didn't choose me. Now, you won't be able to save her"

Taehyung groaned, his eyes fluttering open for a moment. I screamed his name, my voice breaking in desperation. But he barely reacted..his body limp, his spirit crushed.

Emra straightened up and turned to me, her smile like a predator's.

I felt the air in the room thicken, my breaths shallow and fast.

"Why Emra...whyy ...why would you want this..these awful things....you could've had everything...a son , a friend, a happy family..?"

Emra's face twisted, but she feigned sadness, her expression softening.

"Oh, Tamrah, don't you see? I really do love you. You've been my favorite... out of all of them. I might even hate myself for this, but it's too late. This is my destiny, and you... you will help me become the ruler of the Downworld."

I shook my head, my heart aching at the betrayal, but her words were like daggers in my chest.

She moved toward me, her hands reaching for my face, and before I could even comprehend what was happening, she pressed her lips against mine. It was cold, suffocating. I could feel the darkness, the magic wrapping around me like chains. My stomach churned, and I felt the urge to scream.
