Eventually love

chapter 27

Kaylas POV

"Will you promise?" I asked him tugging at his shoulder.

Logan was unmovable. Was he in shock? How could he not think I would not ask him of this? He's in danger because of me! If I was strong I would have left Logan's side by now. But I wasn't Logan's love for me was stronger than my force to hate him. For months I ignored him, yelled at him, acted childish yet he was patient. Logan dropped me onto my feet and placed his hands on the sides of my shoulder giving me a serious look.

"I can't lie to you, I can't promise you" he said looking me straight in the eyes.

I tugged away from him, what was the point of feeling connected to someone when that someone could become hurt just because you're breathing?

"You can't or won't?" I whispered looking down hating the situation we were in.

"Can't" he answered then continued "if you were around me or anyone else I loved was around when Darius showed up I wouldn't be able to just teleport myself out of there. It would be selfish" he said walking towards me while I walked backwards until my back hit the front door.

"I understand but if you are alone will you promise me you will teleport away. Please Logan for my peace of mind. I won't be able to handle it if something were to happen to you" I was showing and telling him my weakness, hoping he would understand.

"I promise" he said, Logan took me into his arms, the embrace was warm and inviting.

"You don't actually know for sure where he is, so that means you won't go looking for him either" I stated.

Instantly Logan pulled out of the hug again, I had this sickening feeling I wouldn't like what I was about to hear.

"I have to find him Kayla. He could kill you and Kara and without you two Blake and I would have no purpose in living. If you die we will die too, that would mean Darius wins he will take over the kingdom and humans will be fare game. Lots of innocent lives will be lost Kayla you need to understand that things are bigger than you and I" he answered while sending me feelings of strength trying to make me think he was invincible.

"Don't do that Logan, you aren't invincible you can get hurt" I answered back.

"But it will heal" he stated.

"You still feel the pain" I answered back.

"But when I think of you and it is worth it" he answered half smiling.

"Logannn" I whined getting exhausted we were getting nowhere.

"I'm sorry Kayla. Keeping you safe is my priority" He stated and with that he grabbed my hand and teleported back into the living room avoiding an argument. Everyone was silent when we returned.

Kara came to my side and held my hand while Logan walked over to his father.

"We have come to a decision. Darius will be kept alive his punishment will be five hundred years in prison bound my silver with one drop of blood to be given to him a day to keep him alive. Once the five hundred years are over then will he be dealt the hand of death" Dedrick explained.

"Father!" Logan yelled not liking his decision.

"This is the final word on this matter. I have rallied up my troops and we are preparing to pay a visit to Darius tonight. Who is coming" Dedrick asked.

Instantly both Kara and my Father put their hands up, Blake and Noah to had put their hands up I looked at Logan and could see him internally fighting with himself. I couldn't stand to see him like that I could see he didn't want to make me worry but at the same time he felt wrong that he wasn't fighting alongside his father. He wanted to protect me not hurt me. I nodded with my head to him and sent him feelings of acceptance. Slowly he raised his hand to join the rest while all the ladies in the room stood still. I could feel the uneasiness in the room no one knew for sure where Darius was. What if it was an ambush? What if they were ready for everyone when they came? There was too many things to think about yet everyone was already readying themselves for the battle, that thought worried me. What if they were doing exactly what Darius wanted them to do? No one was listening to me there was nothing I could do only wait, watch and hope everything worked out. I'm not an optimist hoping for the best was never my strong point.
