Unfeeling

Twenty One | Just A Boy

Evan

My fist were bloodied and my body ached. I didn't give one shit. My knuckles slammed repeatedly again the punching bag so hard that I didn't notice the commotion above us stop completely.

I hated myself. I hated this damned place. I hated what it does to me. I was truly an abomination... a traitor... a cheater.

I was the biggest piece of shit. Everyone had gone above for the burial. Rene helped camouflage everyone so no Unfeeling soldiers spotted them. I should of went up with them, hiding 500 people must be tough. I should of helped.

An abomination. That was the only truth I had told Amberley. The rest was the biggest lie of my life. And my life was a lie. How could I have let my own pain out on her so badly? The things I said! I had choked her for Gods sake!

I was seriously screwed up. I couldn't even go my own friends funeral? I stopped my assault of the large piece of leather.

Stripping off my gloves, I stormed to my room. I threw the door open. My clothes were off in an instant and I walked around completely naked.

I didn't care, there was no one to see me anyways. And this was all I was ever good for anyways... my sex appeal.

I collapsed on my bed, staring at nothing in particular. I hate you, Evan Conway! Amberley's voice still echoed in my mind. I might have been spewing lies but everything she had said was truth.

Something caught my eye. On my dresser was a rolled piece of parchment. I stood and slipped and pair of boxers on. Could it be from
Amberley?

I unrolled the parchment and what I read shocked my beyond belief:

Dear beloved Sterling Valentino,

Hello brother. Long story short, a few years after you left, I totally betrayed mom and dad. I went rouge and the Vex Militia took me in.

Don't panic, I know what I'm doing. Besides this isn't about me, its about you.

Princess Amberley Da Ville is really super powerful and pretty much the only thing that can save the world. So don't kill her please. Like seriously, do not kill her.

When Clandestine's top blows off, bring her to the city outside of Adana. We will take her in, keep her safe.

I really hope this gets to you because I'm pretty sure your orders are to kill her. But I know we have like some weird brother trust thing going on. So trust me bro. Don't kill the lady.

Do the right thing.

Your beloved, favorite sex god brother Micah Valentino

As I finished the letter, I huffed and re read it about five more times.

This had to be some practical joke but no one else knew about my Iniquitous blood down here.

My brother had been an eccentric, flamboyant kid. This letter did reflect that. But I was the sex God!

I pondered this. My brother was with Vex now. But why would I ever turn Amberley over to them? They were terrorist and extremest and who treat her no better than the Iniquitous would.

But wouldn't it be better than my parents catching her. They would torture her than kill her slowly. I shuddered at the thought.

I shoved the note deep down in one of my dresser drawers. I pulled on a t-shirt and sweatpants and heard commotion outside my door.
