Chapter 50.

Declan's POV

It hurt to see her like that. I knew what she was thinking. And that made me hate myself. I made her believe what she believed and i regretted it immediately. I didn't want to hurt her anymore. But i couldn't let her know. I was too close to my plan and i didn't want anything or anyone to get in the way of it.

"Declan." Monica said wrapping her arms around my waist from behind me.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Why are you being so rude to me?" She asked letting me go.

"I'm sorry." I said.

"It's okay." She smiled cupping my cheeks and kissing me.

I pulled away from her and removed her hands from my cheeks.

"I'm tired Monica." I said and layed down turning my back to her and pretended to sleep.

How could i sleep when all i could think about was Mickayla. How i was constantly hurting her. Breaking her heart.

Breaking her heart, broke my heart.

Mickayla's POV

It hurt. It fucking hurt. I couldn't stand it anymore. I wanted him with me. No one else but me.
Maybe it was selfish of me to want that after everything i did to him. But i didn't care. I didn't want him with anyone else. I loved him and i wanted him back.

It was 4:00 am in the morning and i was awake. I couldn't sleep all night. I tossed and turned but everytime i closed my eyes i saw the smirk he gave me before he went in his tent. And it reminded me of what was happening in that tent that was a few feet away from ours.

"Mickayla?" I heard a whisper.

I turned around to see Nina waking up.

"Why aren't you sleep?" She asked sitting up.

"I can't sleep." I said trying to hide the fact that i was crying.

"Is everything okay?"

"Everything's fine, go back to sleep." I said and sniffed.

"Were you crying?" She said a little louder causing Andrea to wake up too.

"What's going on here?" Andrea whispered sitting up.

"Great." I said.

Nina lit the big flashlight we had in the tent and gasped when she could see me.

"You have been crying." She said.

"What the hell happened?" Andrea asked.

I told them what happened earlier tonight and we talked for two hours and then we slowly drifted to sleep.

____________

"Mickayla wakey wakey eggs and bakey." A voice woke me up.

I slowly fluttered my eyes open and saw Tristan smiling at me.

"What time is it?" I aked closing back my eyes.

"Time to get up." He said and pulled the blankets off me.

"Tristan!" I groaned. "Seriously what time is it?!"

"Seriously its time to get up." He repeated.

He saw that i wasn't getting up. He started laughing.

"It's 10:00 am, we need to keep moving." He said placing a kiss on my forehead.

I got up and got dressed after he exited the tent.

____________

"Where's our lovely mother?" I asked exiting my tent.

"Good morning to you too." Jordan said and pulled me in a hug and placed a kiss on top of my head.

"She slept in her car." He said after we pulled away. "And also Nina told me about what Declan did." He said putting his hand around my shoulder. "I'll kick his ass if he does anything that makes you the slightest uncomfortable or upset ever again."

"I love you Jordan." I said hugging him again.

"I love you too Mickayla." He said.

"Awww." Nina said approaching us.

"Seriously N, i appreciate you looking out for me, but please do not discuss my love life with your boyfriend who happens to be my brother, ever again." I said sarcastically.

"Ha ha." She said hugging Jordan from behind and kissing his arm.

"So how are we gonna do this?" I asked as the others joined us by sitting around in a circle.

"What do you mean?" Evan asked.

"The ritual for the cure requires me to die remember?" I said.

"I had completely forgotten about that." Godric said rubbing his hands on his face in frustration.

"Well maybe it's time for you to die." Said a voice that earned everyone's attention.

"Relax, I'm kidding... Maybe." Declan said sitting on one of the chairs.

Declan's hate towards me was not something surprising. Everyone knew it. But you could still see it in everyone's faces that they wanted rip him apart limb from limb.

"The alternate was to sacrifice a vampire and a witch right?" Lione said.

"That's what Victoria said when she thought Mickayla was dead." Carlos said nodding his head.

"So we're just supposed to kill a vampire a and a witch? Just like that?" Tristan said.

"Don't look at me." Andrea said.

"Don't worry, i have volunteers." My mother said walking towards us with my father beside her a few other members behind her and a vampire on her other side.

"Carlos i see you're already here." She said.

"Yes, i came to make sure everyone's ready." Carlos said stepping towards them and standing next to my father.

"Victoria, what a nice surprise, i almost felt bad for not being able to say hi to you yesterday."

"Monica?" My mother said. The expression on her face was the same as the one she had when she first found out that i was alive. "You're alive too?"

"You should've seen that one coming when you saw Mickayla was alive. You're not that bright Victoria." Monica said sarcastically.

"Alright, shall we get this show started?!" Godric said walking towards the direction of the entrance of the cave.

____________

"Julian, bring them in." My mother said to her vampire minion once we got in the cave.

"This must be the book." Lione said kneeling down and picking up an old dusty locked book.

"It's locked." Tristan said taking it from Lione.

"The spell will unlock it." Collin said.

"Ahh my darlings." Victoria said to the young girl and boy who walked in followed by her minion.

They were young, not more than sixteen years old. And they seemed to be calmer than usual.

"Don't worry, they don't know what they're doing. They're compelled by Julian." She said as if it was something to be proud of.

"Are you ready?" She asked them and they both nodded.

"Is everyone ready?" Lione asked us and we all nodded.

"Let's do this." I said after taking a long breath.
