Dean stayed hidden as he watched everyone get ready for the wedding. He couldn't let Seth and Gabriella walk through the archway.
"It is time." He heard the dark priest say. "Please rise as the bride enters." He said. Dean looked and saw Gabriella walking toward Seth. She was dressed in a black wedding dress with a black veil. She took Seth's hand as she got close to him. The priest turned to Seth and handed him the knife. "Take the knife and cut Gabriella's finger and then kiss the finger to let her blood come into you."
Seth took the knife and did as the priest asked bringing Gabriella's finger to his mouth and gently kissing it and sucking a little of her blood into his mouth. He pulled her finger away and smiled at her.
"Take the rings please." The priest said handing them to Seth and Gabriella. "Seth, take your ring and place it on Gabriella's finger and say, we are now joined as one in darkness. Forever are we together as one."
"We are now joined as one in darkness. Forever are we together as one." He slid the ring on her finger.
"Gabriella, take the ring and place it on Seth's finger and say, we are now joined as one in darkness. Forever are we together as one."
She looked at Seth and slid the ring on his finger. "We are now joined as one in darkness. Forever are we together as one."
The priest looked at Seth and nodded. He started to say a dark incantation and then looked at the couple. "You are now joined together in the darkness forever. You will seal your bond by walking through the archway and then sealing it with a kiss."
Seth took Gabriella's hand and they started toward the archway. Dean knew this was his only chance. He had to kill Seth with the knife and take Gabriella immediately before anyone there could do anything. He took his position and waited. He watched as they got close to the archway. He hoped the spell he use would cloak him long enough to kill Seth and take Gabriella. He jumped out and lunged at Seth. He pulled back as the knife entered Seth's chest. He pulled the knife out and looked up as some of the minions came toward him. He took Gabriella's hand and pulled her with him as he rushed back toward the elevator. He only hoped they could get away in time. He turned as they ran and waved his hand to block the path.
They got to the elevator ad he pushed the button and they got onto it. He pressed up and the elevator went fast. She looked at him once they were out of the elevator. "Did you kill Seth?"
"Yes, I did." He replied. He looked at her. "It was the only way he would leave you and the baby alone. Did you want to stay with him? Be his princess? Raise your child together and let that child be evil? I thought you wanted to stop it."
"I do." She said. "I don't want my son evil."
"Exactly. That's why I killed him." Dean looked at her. "We should leave here." She nodded and took his hand and they headed out of the penthouse and out of the building.
Seth laid on the floor of the den looking above. He knew Dean had used the only thing that kill either one of them. He heard footsteps and the minions's voices trying to save his life. "It is too late." He heard his father's voice. "The knife did as it was made to do. My son is dead and my other one has chosen not to rule. My grandson is all that is left." He turned to his minions. "I want my grandson."
They nodded and quickly went away as he stayed with Seth's body as he drew his last breath. He waved his hand and Seth's body disappeared. His only chance now was his grandson.
Dean and Gabriella arrived at the safe house where Jade and Roman were staying. He took her hand and they headed in. "Seth is dead." He said to them as they walked in.
"Well that's one major problem down." Jade replied. She looked at Gabriella. "Now we have one more problem to deal with."
"I'm not letting you do anything to my baby." Gabriella said to her.
Jade sighed. "Do you not understand what will happen? Seth is dead and now the only heir is the child. He has to died and immediately." Jade turned to Roman and nodded. "We have no choice in the matter. If she won't let us kill the child, then we will kill her too." She picked up the knife that she had used to kill Stephanie and turned back to Gabriella. "You have left us no choice."
Dean stepped in front of Gabriella. "No, you will not hurt her."
"We have no choice Dean." Jade said as Roman moved behind him. Dean felt himself being pulled away as Jade lunged at Gabriella with the knife. They were all shocked when a flash came and Jade was thrown into the bookcase.
Dean and Roman looked at Gabriella who was standing there and she was fine. Dean pulled away from Roman and rushed over to her. "Are you okay?" He asked her.
"Yes, I am. I don't understand what just happened."
Dean looked as Roman went over to Jade and helped her up. "The baby isn't going to let you kill her." Dean said to her. "I never believed this but the baby is protecting himself and Gabriella." It had always been a myth to him about a child having power to save himself once he was far enough a long.
Jade looked at them. "So, there is nothing we can do?"
"No." Dean replied. "Gabriella will carry the child to term and nothing is going to stop it."
Jade sighed. "Fine but we can't be around her. The minions will come to get the child and take him below to him. Seth might be dead but he is the blood of him and he will not rest until he has him." She looked at Roman. "Let's go now."
He nodded and took her hand and they quickly left the house. Dean knew it was for the best. He could protect Gabriella and once the baby was born, they could figure something out. He thought he had a way to make it all okay but he would have to do more research.
