Fate (~Alternate sequel) DISCONTINUED

I'm just a mess.

"What are you going on about? You're not a mess." Ebony spoke suddenly, teleporting next to me.
"I wish you couldn't mind read." I mumbled, getting up and walking to the portal alone "I don't get how you two can just accept me so easily- I'm just a monster- I don't get all of your feelings.. I just- I just don't possess them."
"Black don't go- at least wait for us!" I heard Coy shout as I reached the door, but I'd already gone through it without looking back. I couldn't deal with it right now- I didn't want to know what they truly thought of me. Because of course, it'd be most likely bad.

Ebony's POV
"Black come back!!"
"Coyote. It's useless shouting her." I sighed, giving him a sad smile, "She's already gone back to the castle."
Coyote looked at me with big puppy eyes "Why aren't you calling for her? She'd probably run back tail wagging if it were you!"
I chuckled slightly, knowing better "No, she wouldn't. She'd run quicker knowing Black.. She never wants me to see her true insecurities for some reason."
Coyote brought a hand to his chin, contemplating, while I glazed upon the path, wondering if he was ever going to stop thinking so I could go- or if I should just leave him there.
"Coyote. Snap out of it- we need to get out of here. God knows what it's like without Black or Lilith. It's creepy." I mumbled, grabbing his arm, pulling him along the path- when I heard something from him
It aggravates me.. When you're in such a perfect relationship, where it just works, yet you don't go after her when she's upset. If that were me, I'd chase her until she were in my arms.
I stopped walking and stared at him
"What?" He asked, and I took a long sigh
"Coyote do you ever listen to me- No! Wait, you never did so-" he was about to interject but I quickly stopped him "I'm not chasing after Black because she wouldn't like it. I would only chase her if something were to happen. She'll be in my arms when she wants to be.. I don't have to force her ya' know? And we're not perfect, I don't know what you're on about."
"At least you both have someone.." he muttered under his breath
"What?"
"All of you.. Black and you, Went and Ralph.. You're all in a relationship.. Except me. I'm just lonely. Okay?"

The rest of the walk back to the portal was in an awkward silence. I didn't know what to say and I'm guessing nor did he. Eventually we reached it, walking through and parting ways to our ends of the castle walls, but, I couldn't find Black anywhere.
"She must've gone for a fly around.. To calm down perhaps.." Speaking to myself, I pondered into our shared walk-in wardrobes and slipped on, over the top of my shirt, one of Black's older hoodies, without meaning to smelling her lingering aroma that stuck upon it. Putting my hands in the pockets, I managed to teleport down to the throne room, where I saw nothing, except her.
Lilith.
She may have helped Black, but her being around still didn't sit well with me. That look she always gives me, it doesn't seem right. She looks up with those red eyes and gives a smirk almost instantly-
"Ebony- how great it is to see you alone.." Teleporting next to me, she looks down at the hoodie, then back into my eyes "I don't get to see that often."
I rolled my eyes, sarcastically speaking "Isn't it a shame that I'm always with Black?"
Lilith lowered her eyebrows "Trust me-" licking her lip and biting it slightly "It truly is.."
I shook my head- it was obvious what she was trying to do.
"You're not seductive ya know?"
"You say that.." She comes closer to me, backing me to the wall "But your body language says different.."
I didn't notice but my hands were shaking, moving themselves to tough Lilith- but I quickly pulled them back
"STOP USING YOUR POWERS ON ME!" I yelled, pushing her back, causing her to fall down, but I saw her laugh.
"Oh darling~"
"I'm not your darling.."
"I wasn't using my powers. I'm just irresistible baby.."
"So fucking cocky." I mumbled, but I knew deep down she was using her powers- I'd never go to hold her. Not after what she's done. Even if she helped.
"So anyway-" Lilith purred "Where were we?"
"You-" I growled "Were just leaving."
"Fine. This time I'll go.. But believe me Ebony- the next tine, you'll want me."
And yet again, she was gone in a flash.
Like hell I'll want her.
I have everything I needed anyway-
I have Black.

Think of the demon and she shall appear.. As soon as I thought her name, she appeared in front of me, almost exactly where Lilith stood moments before.
She begun to speak, "Is that my-"
"Yep!" I put the hood over my head, then putting my arms around her, feeling her at first flinch but then melt under my touch "Black are you okay?"
She sighed "I think I am now.. I just needed some time alone-" she stopped and looked at me with a raised eyebrow
"What?" I asked, genuinely confused

"Her fucking perfume's all over you.."
