The Eyes

The End

-Vincent-

The horrible part of the storm was over. I was relieved Julie was okay, and I would be okay too. Cyprio said he would come every so often to visit and check up on us. He said he would help me with some of the new found abilities I had. I still didn’t trust the man, but he was alright. He had stopped Viktor. Grandmother told me about the Void Cell. I don’t honestly know how I felt about that. Viktor deserved to be in there, but he would lose his mind. I know I would have.

Julie looked to be happy. After a long sleep, she woke up and cooked for me, telling me about what she and the Power discussed. “He said he wouldn’t claim your life or mine. They like me as a Holder and I wouldn’t let them take you.”

I only smiled in response. I didn’t care about that right now. I don’t care that my death all depended on a flimsy deal with unstoppable powers. I had never been this calm in my life. Julie was safe, Viktor was locked away. I didn’t even care that demons would come for us. They weren’t here now, ruining this moment.

“Why are you staring at me like that?” Julie interrupted my thoughts.

I focused in on her face, pushing my thoughts to the side. Nothing mattered right now. I felt my lips curl into a smile when I saw her two bright green eyes looking at me. “I’m just in a really good mood.”

She sat more food onto the table and sat across from me at the small, now cluttered table. “Why is that?”

I bit into some toast and only shrugged. She smiled and gathered food on her plate. “I’m pretty happy, too,” she said in a soft voice.

At that moment I decided I would stay by her side for the rest of my days. I wasn’t happy because Viktor was locked away, or that the Power of Death was safe again. I was happy because Julie was. She wasn’t in danger. Her number wasn’t slowly ticking away. I felt at ease for once, and it was because of her. Things were looking up for the first time in my long fifty years of life and I didn’t want to give this up.

-Author’s note-

Sorry if the ending was bad. I’m not good with endings. I’ll probably make a branch off series of Cyprio and Avila. I will try to make a second book of this though.

Tell me what you guys thought of this! I’ll try to improve it if you want.
