So this is my first fancfiction story! Please don't be too harsh. I love the idea of Zoey&Kalona so this is my own little spin on it! This takes place after Hunted except Stark and Zoey only love eachother as siblings. Also, Eric and Zoey just broke up and Heath wants to get back into his fave girl's life! Read & Review! Enjoy!
Zoey
I walked back to my dorm room and fell asleep. Of course since I didn't have Stark sleeping next to me, he entered my dreams...
My sweet Zoey I am forever delighted to be in your presence
He stepped towards me with his arms outstretched but I backed away, not wanting him near me. Something flashed across his face. Fear? No, it had to be something else for this fallen angel had nothing to fear. He dropped his arms and then folded them across his chest. For Kalona, that was completely out of character. Here I was waiting for him to go all 'A-ya, my love, let me control you for eternity' but he just simply stood there staring at me in silence before he broke it to speak.
Will you do me a favor, dear Zoey?
I will not. All you want is to control me so you don't have to worry about me messing up or sick little plan for bringing back the ancient ways and declaring war on humans.
Ah, you see my little Zoey, if you were to do me this favor everything may change to your likings.
Okay so now I was curious, and after all, it was my dream so if I didn't like the favor I could always wake up and it couldn't hurt to at least hear what he's asking.
Alright, Kalona what is it you want? First of all,I would like you to meet me outside the dorms after waking up form this dream. Why is that? So you can isolate me frommy friends and attempt to hurt or control me? I will tell you why as soon as you meet me. Please do not complicate things Zoey. Fine. I will meet you but if I sense something's up you will never ever get a second chance Kalona. Got it? Yes, my love I understand. And with that, I sat up in bed. At first I pondered just going back to sleep and letting himm just sit aroundand wait outside by himself. After all, it could be a trap and Neferet could be standing out there ready to ambuish me. Go to him Zoeybird and you shall not regret your choice.The Goddess' voice rung through my head and I had this feeling that meeting Kalona wouldn't be all that bad. I pulled on my slippers and a sweater then crept through the dorm to the doors that led to the campus grounds. Once outside, I looked around. Kalona was not there. Figures. I sighed and was about to turn back and head in when a hand closed around my wrist causing me to jump and then scream. When I screamed a hand clamped down over my mouth and I was pulled behind a hedge. "Hush Zoey, for she sees and hears all" his breath on my back made me shiver even through my sweater. "Jeez Kalona you scared the bullpoopie out of me!" I replied in a hushed tone.
"I'm truly sorry but I could not let you depart but I did not want her to hear us talking."
I knew who her was without even asking.
"So what is this favor you want to ask of me?"
He got down on his knee and fisted his right hand over his heart, "Zoey Redbird, High Priestess and Chosen of Nyx, I, Kalona, fallen warrior of Nyx pledge myself to your service and to the service of your goddess for to serve thee is to serve light. Zoey Redbird, do you accept my pledge?"
I stood there, dumbstruck. Why would he pledge himself to me? What about Neferet and wasn't he allied with Darkness too? All these other questions rang through my head telling me how terribly bad this was until one musical and powerful voice silenced them all, Look into your heart Zoeybird and look into his as well. My fallen warrior may seem dark but his heart is still there, just buried deep within him.
I sucked in a deep breath and then let it out and listened to my goddess. "I chosen High Priestess Zoey Redbird accept your warrior's oath and all that goes with it, Kalona, fallen warrior of Nyx."
A brilliant smile broke across his face and he leapt up and enveloped me in his arms, for once I did not feel the cold passion of his embrace but intoxicating warmth. He bent his head to my ear and whispered, "You shall not regret this, my lady" and I hoped with all my heart that he was right.
Kalona
He watched as his love, priestess and lady walked off, back to her room. He was still in awe for the moment she had accepted his oath he felt as though his heart had finally broken free of its cage in the pit of his soul and shedding a little bit of light on his feelings and thoughts. He would keep his word, he shall never again be banished from the side of his high priestess ad Nyx had done so long ago. But how was he going to destroy Neferet. The Tsi Sgili was now very strongly allied with darkness as was Kalona himself.
Maybe Zoey's devotion and love to her goddess may be enough to put him on the right path but his wants and needs had to keep him on that path. A path of which he wished to walk along with his lady, side by side. He would have to start by banishing Neferet at least from the school to give him time to break his connection with darkness, build his relationship with Zoey and find out how to destroy the Tsi Sgili. He made his way through the halls until he found the room of which he shared with Neferet. He pushed open the door to reveal the Tsi Sgili lying in the bed. The moment he touched the bed to sit down he felt her arms snake around his waist and felt tendrils of darkness licking his skin as she placed slimy kisses all over his back. For a moment Kalona tried to pretend that he was in his lady's arms and that the tendrils were gusts of air she had called to caress his skin, but the feel was to harsh and far too dark. Never had he felt so disgusted when he touched Neferet as he did now. Without being too obvious he lay down beside her and was quick to tuck some blankets in between them so that she could not press her body against his. As her fingers traced morbid patterns on his bronze flesh, Kalona tried his best to fall asleep. Eventually he did and he dreamt of Zoey.
I promise to keep posting! And the more reviews I get the more posts I'll make!
