Prologue
"So, you're telling me you're going to kill them because I know them? Because they give me strength?" I said irritations clear in my voice.
"You're smarter than you look. Yes, they will die because it will bring you pain," the man said with a smirk. It made his face look scarier than it already was, the black goat-like beard at the end of an oval-shaped face with his cold ice-blue eyes.
No I can't let them do that. Not to my soulfinder. I can't live if he dies.
I took a deep breath. If I was going to be convincing I had to look dull as if I didn't care about them. I had to act like Xav didn't mean anything to me, pretend I would be perfectly fine without him. I swallowed my fear and spoke: "What you are saying is that the problem here is them knowing me." I put a finger to my chin as you would when thinking: "So if I get this right if they were to forget me and my bond with my soulfinder were to be broken you wouldn't care less if they lived or died is that right?" my voice sounded cold as I said those words. The smirk on the man's face faded as he thought of my offer.
"Sure, they'd be useless then."
"What are you doing Ray that bluff isn't going to fool them. Mom isn't the best actor they're never going to believe that we can't remember and we aren't leaving you," Xav looked at me with eyes that said I was crazy. Maybe I was, but at that moment I didn't care. If he had to forget me in order to live, then so be it. I have always been the one that destroys. He showed me that there is so much more I can do. He was like my light that made me understand that my power could be used in different ways and that I had the ability to make others happy just like he did.
"I am not giving you a choice, it's your life or your memories. I'm sorry, don't worry I'll use your power to bind your soul with someone more suitable than me."
"No, you can't. I don't want anyone else …"I blocked my mind.
"Then so be it," I focused on finding my bond with the black haired-boy and then shattered it. I didn't dare look at him, too afraid I would break giving Caec's the advantage they needed. My eyes stayed fixed on those ice-cold eyes that didn't even flinch when he slaughtered my family.
