Forbidden: Immortal-Fledgling Love Chapter 9
I don't own any of these characters except Katharine Jenkins.
48 hours, just 48 hours was all it took for everything to come apart once again. I had dinner with Kalona, which led
to a wonderful bliss of sensations, taken place in his bedroom before we heard a scream. "Kal," I moaned softly as
he kissed down my neck gently before we heard a piercing scream. He froze and shot up off of his bed before he
looked out of his window and cursed lowly. "What is it?" I whispered as I sat up and wrapped his white sheet
around my body quickly before I walked over towards his window where he was standing, looking out into the
night. "Someone's hurt," He said as he walked away from the window and grabbed his jeans from the ground,
slipping them on quickly as he made his way out of his bedroom. "Stay here," He commanded in his no-nonsense
type voice before he grabbed his black sword and dashed out of his apartment. 'Stay here, I can't just stay here,
what he if gets hurt?' I thought as I got dressed quickly and ran out of his apartment. I walked down the east wall
quickly before I saw him standing next to Erin Bates as she screamed frightened. "What happened to her?" I asked
before Kalona looked at me and hissed as his eyes turned gold, in anger. "I told you to stay in my apartment, go back
before-" He started before Erin screamed again as a ghostly, skeleton looking thing floated in front of us. I gasped in
fear as another one came from the ground and surrounded us. "We've come for our sacrifice, Sshe vowed we would
have blood," One of the two spoke in a chilling deadly voice. "Neferet, sent you," Kalona murmured before I froze as
one of the ghost thingies caressed my face gently. "You shall be a sacrifice, such lovely blood," The ghost thing hissed
as it wrapped around me and pulled me towards it. "N-No," I screamed as I channeled my element, making a
blazing fire erupt on the ghost. It hissed violently and I fell to the ground as it disintegrated. "Shaunee," Kalona
called before another one of the ghost things came from the ground. "Sacrifice, yes," It hissed before it hovered
above me as Kalona ran forward slicing his sword against it, in an effort to get towards me. "Traitor," The one who
was hovered above me hissed at Kalona before he threw himself against him. "I'm no traitor," Kalona hissed and
sung his sword across the ghost's head. "Go to Thanatos tell her we are being attacked," Kalona called and I
nodded as I grabbed Erin and ran to our High Priestess's apartment. "Thanatos, we're being attacked by some
ghost thing's sent by Neferet over by the east wall," I said in a hurry once I reached her. "Go to the dorms, I will call
our Warriors," She commanded and I ran off, where Erin ran off to I don't know, nor did I care at that moment.
"Guys, we're being attacked, Thanatos said that everyone has to stay in the dorms," I said once I walked inside of
our dorms and saw everyone looking around scared. "What happened?" Stevie Rae asked as we all sat down on
the couch. "Me and Kalona heard a scream and went over to the east wall, where Erin was being attacked by this
ghost thingy, before another one showed up and attacked me, Neferet sent them for what I don't know, but they
wanted a sacrifice or something, that's what they kept saying," I said and shuddered as Kat wrapped her around
me in a quick hug. "It's going to be okay, the Warrior's will handle it," She said and I nodded as I bit my bottom lip
worriedly. "I hope so," I whispered as we all looked out of the window, in hopes of seeing anything that would give
something away as to what was happening outside. It seemed like hours had past before we were briefed on what
happened and what was going to happen because of the attack. "Kalona has offered to seek out information
regarding what it is that Neferet wants," Thanatos said before I shook my head automatically. "There has to be
some other way-," I pleaded before she spoke. "He has offered, stating that we don't know how or even why she is
doing this now, we need answers young fledgling-" Thanatos said before I interrupted her. "This could be a trap,
and he could get hurt," I snapped before she glared at me. "We don't have time for silly emotions to fight our
battles, he has asked and I have agreed, now I need everyone to remain in the dorms until further notice, school
will not be in session until I see it fit," Thanatos said in her commandingly powerful voice before she left our dorm,
heading over to the boys dorm to tell them the news. "Why are you doing this, you don't-" I started as I looked into
Kalona's eyes before he sighed. "The High Priestess is right, we don't have time to discuss the outcomes of what
might happen, I am the only one who can come into contact with her, without being noticed and killed right away,
she has trusted me before," He stated before I flinched back as everyone watched us. "Yeah I know," I hissed before
he sighed and caressed my right cheek gently. "This is the only way," He said softly before he leaned down and
kissed me gently. "Please don't do this," I whispered as tears welt up in my eyes before he shook his head and
wiped my tears away. "I must," He stated before he pulled back just as Thanatos walked back inside. "I trust that
you will find what it is she wants, you must do whatever is necessary to get her to confine in you again and tell you
what it is she seeks," She said before he nodded. "I shall return to you," He vowed as he looked down at me
before he caressed my right cheek gently. I nodded and sighed defeated, there was no way that he would listen to
me if he thought that he would be able to stop Neferet once and for all, in order to protect us. He followed Thanatos
out of our dorms as we all watched him before I sat back down on the couch as tears ran down my eyes. He could
get hurt and although he was immortal, there was no telling what Neferet had up her sleeve to use against him.
