Haunted By The Vampire King

Her Heart

Alec POV 

I was trying my best to avoid getting hurt from Volsiviks sword because I know its deadly effect. My mind was sick with the feeling of considering him as my father figure. I should have known better. My mind was constantly thinking of Mia, I wanted to save her and run away. Run away to the end of the world and never look back. 

I was about to look back when I was blinded by a white light. There was this pain in the back of my ears and I could hear Volsivik yell at Aspen. 

I closed my eyes and fell down to the ground. I tried my best to open my eyes. All I could catch was small pieces of images around me.

I saw Mia up in the air with Aspen holding her.

Aspen had large white wings 

And black horns 

I saw Mia on the floor with blood around her 

And suddenly the white light stopped and I stood up and ran towards Mia. I looked at where the blood was coming from and I followed my eyes towards her heart. My nerves tense and I look up to Aspens hands.

There it was my precious Mia's heart in her heart.

Volsivik cried in despair " What have you done, you were not supposed to kill her, you tricked me" 

Aspen was in the air and she smiled at me and flew away.

"NO" 

"NO"

"NO"

These were the only words that escaped my mouth. Her eyes were closed, I tried opening them. 

Mia

My love, please open your eyes. Please don't leave me. I wont be able to live on my own. Please open your eyes. 

I have to tell you how much I love you, I have to take you around to your favorite places around the world.

How will I ever live now, an eternity of pain and sadness.

Adam POV

I saw her up in the sky, flying high reaching Mia.

My heart broke into pieces thinking about her betrayal.
I heard Mia scream her heart out but Aspen didn't even flinch.
She was emotionless. I felt like in a moment I forgot who she was when she was with me. I forgot about the sweet, loving girl who always cared about others.

Was it all an act, to get what she wanted.
Was I an object for her to use and throw. It pained me to think like that.

She looked at me and flew away. I wouldn't let her go away with this. I ran after her. 

"Aspen" I yelled at her. She didn't stop, she didn't even turn back to look at me. I shifted my form into spider one, as it was easy to go this way. 8 legs is an advantage after all and she wouldn't be able to spot me too.

I followed her for a while and she reached to Volsiviks lair. She reached back to the ground and  her wings unfolded and she winced in pain. There was something wrong with it. Her wings provided her freedom and happiness and not pain.

She walked inside and I shifted my form into a human being. I followed her silently, she was walking endlessly in directions I know I wont remember to go back. The room smelled of a strange smell. It was intoxicating, like Aspen. 

After walking for so long we reached the end of the tunnel and as I walked out, I realized that it led to a cliff. The cliff of regret. At the end of it lay the an ocean of endless regret. It was made by My grandfather for punishing who disobeyed him. 

Once you fall into it, you will only wish you were dead. Death was better than falling into the pit. You will never die if you fall into it, instead you will live a life of remorse and irreversible pain and there is no escaping it. 

What was Aspen doing here, that question troubled my mind.

"Aspen" I called out.

She turned to look back at me in an emotion I cant decipher from her eyes. 

"Get away from from me or I wont spare you any sentiments" She said to me.

"Why, Why are you doing this to me, what have I done to make you do this to me" I yelled at her with tears threatening to spill from my eyes.

She didn't respond back at me. She walked to the end of the cliff.

Her hands were covered in Felicia's blood. I could see her heart in Aspen's hand. I felt a pain in the back of my mind. 

"Aspen" I said with pain in my words.

"I don't love you Adam, and I haven't ever loved you also. I was never your mate. You were poisoned  to believe that I was your mate. And one more thing I was the one who killed Felicia's parents" She said. 

My heart broke into tiny pieces when I heard that. All the memories that I had cherished for all these years were pain lie. I was living a Lie.

"Why" I asked with the little dignity left in me.

"I was offered a place, Place back in heaven if I could stop the next spider king from ascending his throne, you know Angel's belong in heaven and even if get a chance again, I would do the same". 

My mind found it very hard to take in all the information. She walked to the cliff and was about to drop Felicia's heart into the pit. I can't let her do that. I ran towards her and pulled the heart from Aspen's hand. Our legs got tangled and she fell on top of me and together I could feel was fall into the pit.
