CHOSEN (ON HOLD)

CHAPTER 18

Unknown's P.O.V

     I will get the Empire at all cost. No one, not even my self will stop me from gaining my Kingdom. I have made my plans.

To torment, befriend and then gain what I want.

     Yes, I started the torment today. I will keep tormenting her. Scare her. Then, I will show myself to her as someone who wants to help her stop the torment and befriend her before finally gaining her whole trust. The Empire will be mine.

"Planning more evil, aren't you?"

Her stupid meek voice came up. She interrupted my thoughts as usual.

"Planning to take back my Empire. If that's what you meant"

"Yeah, of course. Your Empire. With the Chosen girl's life. The innocent child who knows not a thing about your fight!"

Yes, always the foolish one. She never understands that you fight with everything to win. This is not the time to act foolish.

"Yes, the innocent child that will waste her powers in protecting her soulmate! I need those powers the most! And yes, I will have it. No more words from you, Prostitute!"

"I will not let you use her. I will unleash your plans. I'm sure Adams won't like them, Charles"

Anger surged through me as I leapt to my feet. No way is she divulging my plans. My secrets!

"You will do no such thing!" I barked into her wax coated eardrums.

"I have heard enough! You used me. I did everything you wanted me to do. I took care of your lies, your secrets, your evil deeds but not anymore! I will no longer be your accomplice. I don't want to bear a guilt I can't live with. I will tell Adam all he needs to know about the Chosen girl. Charles let's end all this, please"

Talk about stupidity. I held her shoulders firmly.

"You will do no such thing" I repeated, hissing through clenched teeth.

"Then, watch me. Watch me as I free us from your lies and evils!" She turned to leave.

I pulled her back with every ounce of energy in me. She fell to the ground with a loud thud.

"You will not tell Adam! I will make sure of that"

Yes, I will end her life. She can't let out my secrets. I picked up the knife on my drawer. This is what I have to do. I can't seem to curb her anymore.

She was already on her feet, moving backwards with every strength she has left.

"No, Charles. Don't do it" She kept staggering backwards. I had pushed her far into the room. My back is to the door. There is no escape route.

"Let me end this. You will not observe the Chosen's death. You will be free of guilt. Let me free you now"

"You bastard! Coward! You will kill me to conceal your lies?"

"Hell yes! I will do more than that. I will boil your bones and feed them to the dogs if that's what I have to do to keep my secrets!"

I raised my knife to my face, admiring the sparkle. Who knew this knife will kill her? The knife I stole from her lost love. Now she has to die by it. How pitiful. She has always been a pain in the butt. I can't control her anymore.

"Charles! No! No! Don't do it! Please!"

"I would, sooner or later. That is now!"

I pushed the knife into her stomach.

"You bastard! You will never gain the Empire. Never, Coward!" She spat her last statement.

Anger took control over me. I pulled the knife out and stabbed her a second time. Deep into the pit of her stomach.

"Haaaaaaaa! "
