Chapter 12
Selene POV.
"No!" Erik yelled.
'Oh yes.' I thought and let go. I was falling through the air. It was peaceful to know that my soul would live on after i hit the ground and die. I would be reborn and there was nothing that anyone could do to stop it now. All the pain i have felt in my life because of Erik, Kalona, Neferet and Jordan will all be over. I will never have to relive that again. I would never feel the pain and fear that the world has left for me in my heart. I will feel anything again. This fall seemed as it it lasted forever but I knew that I was falling quickly. I couldn't help but think about Erey, and how much she needed me. How i wouldn't ever get to see her walk down the isle or hear about all the boys shes kissed and what not.
"Mom!" I looked to my side and Erey was running out of the dorm building and heading over to her dad as they all just stood there dumbstruck as i fell to my death.
Erik POV.
"Mom!" Erey called. I did not want her to see her mother about to plummet to her death.
'Selene do you really hate me this much' I sent to her.
'Yes! Erik i hate you with every fibre of my life. You made me feel like I could trust you, but you used me jut like everyone else. I needed you to depend on, I needed you to be stable and when Becca came in the room today I lost the trust that I had rebuilt for you and I lost the need to be alive, to feel anything anymore. It was like you tool a knife and cut the string that joined us together. It was a sharp cut Erik. One that I just can't bounce back from this time.'
"I'm so sorry. I haven't spoken to Becca since you came back. I swear to you Selene. Please you have to believe me.' I begged her. 'If you let the moon catch you we can go far away. Just me, you and Erey. Somewhere, where there is no Erin, Becca or any other girls. We can be a normal family i swear to Selene.' I paused to think about what I was going to say next. 'I am your warrior and you are my priestess. I am sworn to protect you we have a bond that can never be severed. Selene, Luna, Mene please just do not fall. I swear to you that there is nothing else that I am hiding from you. Please S.'
'Why should I trust you this time Erik? I mean whats different this time?'
'Me. I'm different. Were different. Our family is different. Selene you know me better than anyone, look into my heart through our bond and see if I am lying because if I'm not I want you to stop falling to your death. It is not your time my love.' I could feel her soul mixing with mingling with mine. It felt so good to have her inside of my body and becoming one with me just as it was meant to be this entire time. Then the burning feeling that sent chills down my spine stopped and I felt Selene's essence disappear.
'Catch me if you want me to live.' She said and closed the link. I ran to try and pin point where it was that she would be landing.
Zoey POV.
Erey and Michael had come outside and were standing beside Stark and I as we watched Erik run around frantically. "Why did she let go?" Stark was asking himself instead of us. I walked over to him and took his hand. He looked at me and squeezed my hand. I knew that he really appreciated the feeling of me being so close to him, especially when half of his soul was about to die. I remember when Heath died and how instantly my soul shattered into a million and one pieces. I also remembered hoe Stark was there to put it back together and he waited by my side, helping me come back to everyone that I loved. Even though it may just be us and Erik, Erey and Selene still left at the House of Night because the gang had also gone to Venice to help protect the people, it felt full and if Selene went missing again it would always feel like apart of the family was gone.
"Is she going to live Z" Ere asked me. I looked over at Erey and smiled.
"Your mom is great warrior, in fact she is THE warrior, and a little fall like this will not affect her. Plus
." I pointed over at Erik. "I think that he's going to catch her" Erey laughed.
"No offence Z but dad isn't the most coordinated vampire." I nodded, I mean i was a klutz but Erik was a walking lunatic.
"Don't worry hun. It'll all be okay trust me." Stark said as he pulled me closer to him and kissed the top of my head.
"Thanks Star." Erey went and took Michael' s hand and he opened his arms to her and they just stood there embracing each other.
"Z, your great." Stark said. I looked up at him and smiled.
"Not as great as my husband." I leaned up on my tippy toes and kissed him.
"Mmm yummy." Stark said.
"Yeah what do I taste like?" I asked him.
"You taste like Zoey." He kissed me again.
"And what does Zoey taste like? I mean how do I know that you don't know two Zoey's or maybe more." He laughed.
"You taste like my soulmate, yummy like candy, sweet like sugar, sour like sour patch kids, and hot like fire." I laughed.
"Your so silly Stark, but damn I must taste so good." He chuckled and I couldn't help but smile along with him. "Wanna taste me again?" I asked him. I was trying to be sexy but he just laughed at my failed attempt.
"Yes I do." He leaned down and kissed me. It was a long, sweet kiss that was just nice and not playful. It was perfect.
Erey POV.
It was nice to see Z and Star trying to make the best of this situation. I admired how there family was so perfect. How there never seemed to be a problem or trouble that could harm there family, while my own seemed to have enough problems for the whole world and then some. "You okay" Michael asked me.
"Not until he catches her." I came closer to him and he held me tighter.
"I understand." He kissed the top of my head. I felt so safe in his arms. It would probably be the one place in this universe that I would never get tired f being. I loved being in his arms and i would just stay here forever and a half if I could.
"Michael?" I asked.
"Yeah?"
"I l-" I paused. I would have told him I love you but what if he didn't feel the same way? What if i made a fool of myself, I couldn't risk losing him. "I like having you hear its nice know that your hear for me."
"I'll always be here for you Erey." He kissed my forehead and went back to holding me.
Selene POV.
He loves me! He really loves me! I screamed in my mind. When our soul felt like one I could see everything that had went on between the two of us and how everything that we had been through ran through his mind constantly. "Ow." I said out loud when arms wrapped around me and we fell to the ground. Erik was on top of me. He looked so worried and scared. His cheeks were tear stained and he was still crying a little. I wiped my hand over his face to wipe them away, he took my hand in his and kissed it.
"Soft landing?" He asked me and I laughed.
"No." He looked into my eyes for a moment.
"Do not ever scare me like that again."
"I won't."
"Promise me Selene Night."
"I promise you Erik Night that I will never do that again." He smiled and crushed his lips onto mine.
"I love you." He kissed my forehead. "I love you." He kissed my cheek. "I love you." He kissed m nose. "I love you." He kissed my eye. "I love you." He said one last time and kissed my lips again but this time it was softer and more sweet. If felt intimate without crossing a line into sex.
"I love you to." I said and kissed him again. "Tell me right now, is there anything else that you are keeping from me?"
"No I swear." I looked into his eyes and I knew that I could trust him.
"Okay." We kissed again. I wrapped my hand around his neck and the kiss got deeper more passionate. My mind was trying to feel the kiss but it couldn't. It was unstable and felt as if everything was about to fall apart.
Erik POV.
Selene and I were lying on the ground making out I held her in my arms and I knew that this time nothing would go wrong and stop us from being together. The kiss was filled with love, hurt and longing. It was the perfect combination of everything. I pulled S closer to me and her body fell limp in my arms. I pulled away and looked at her her eyes were rolled all the way t the back of her eye "S?" I asked her. "S!" I yelled. "SELENE!" I pinched her cheeks softly to see if she would feel it and she didn't. Her whole body was pale even for a vampire she was abnormally white. "STARK! ZOEY!" I hollered.
Dah Dah Duhhh
