Betrothed

My Return

After the three days passed I knew I could no longer avoid the inevitable. I kissed Serena on her forehead and went to Johanna. "Johanna do you have a coat I could borrow?" She looked at me confused but grabbed a cape from inside the driver's seat, I took it and tied it around my neck. "Where are you going? You can't be thinking about giving yourself up there's no telling what he'll do to you." I then walked past her and headed to the stairs to get the surface. "Johanna I've made up my mind, I can't let people get hurt because of me I may have not asked for this but I will not let him destroy this world." I then reached the surface and the bull appeared in front of me. "I'm coming with you but I won't interfere until you ask it of me." I nodded to him allowing him to come with me and when I got far enough away from the train station I began calling the crows. "I'm giving myself up, I won't fight and I will go to Erebus." I waited for a bit and then I heard it the cawing of crows flying around me and I stood my ground as they began to settle down and they all landed on the rooftops. "We will be with you as we go to the house of night, master will be pleased." The crows then began flying and I followed. Once we neared the house of night I saw him, the white bull of evil. His eyes glowed a deep red as I approached and I knew there was no turning back. "Welcome back miss Scarlett, Erebus is waiting, he changed the school into a castle and he is in a throne room I will lead you to him." He licked his lips making me cringe in disgust and I followed him to the throne room. When I made it inside I saw that the throne room was filled with seats and at the end of the hall was Erebus sitting in a black throne with spickes pointing out of it and another throne sat next to his looking the same except it was silver and his was gold. I walked to him and then the bull left bowing his head to me. "I am happy to see you again Scarlett, I knew you would return to me and now that you are here I will no longer need the eclipse." He then stood up and we walked to the window behind the thrones and I stared at the sky. He raised his hand to the eclipse and began to lower the moon making it daylight once again. I then looked at him and he began circle me slowly. "So how shall we resolve what happened last time we talked?" He then stopped and pulled me to him grabbing hold of my waist and used his other hand to move my chin so I would look at him. "I would say all is forgiven but you hurt me deeply so how do you plan to make it up to me?" I breathed and relaxed myself as I stared into his eyes trying to see the man I had made friends with before and I definitely saw a glimmer of light in his eyes. "You've already punished me by hurting those I care about what more could you do?" He smiled and then he stayed silent for a bit. I then felt him move his hand from my waist to underneath my shirt touching my stomach and I could feel his dark power from within making me feel lust and I began to feel weak in the knees. That's when I felt him move at a fast speed setting me on the silver throne and he began kissing me making my body feel like it was on fire and I couldn't stop myself from kissing him back and loving the feeling of how powerful he made me feel. It was like I had power coursing through me and I enjoyed it. I then pushed him back when I felt him trying to pull my shirt off and he fell to the floor as I fixed my shirt and hid behind the throne trying to get distance between us. "What you didn't want to go any further?" He then flew up in the sky and I became afraid. "I'll give you a head start to run and if you make it to past the gates then I'll let you free!"
