Big Show spellbound me then took the manacles off of me. All I could do was stand there motionless and stare straight ahead of me as its minions grabbed my arms, leading me to a stone altar. The beast watched on with a sick gleam in its eyes and a sleazy grin on its face when it suddenly heard a low rumbling come from above.

It knew as the Battle of Rage would finally continue as a portal opened within the Underworld. The beast grew wide eyed as it watched most of the mystical creatures of the supernatural world come pouring out. It snarled then ordered its vast army of Ghouls and Wendigos forward. Once everyone was through the portal, both sides yelled then ran toward one another as the battle began.

And while that was transpiring, the beast would impregnate the Vampire queen…

Space

Everyone fought with all of their might's, avoiding bites and scratches from the Ghouls and the Wendigos; one scratch or bite from them and you were infected. Glenn and Jay fought side by side as Mark and Harley fought back to back. Many Angels smite the beasts' army and they slowly began to dwindle. But Big Show's army put up one hell of a fight.

Its minions held me down as the beast slowly drew closer to me. I was in a trance as the fiend then disrobed at the foot of the altar. The minions then yanked my legs open and the beast grinned darkly.

Mark suddenly looked toward his female and grew wide eyed. The beast looked at the Vampire king then quickly looked down at me. Mark roared then and it was like air was pushed into my lungs for the first time. I gasped and blinked repeatedly then tried to pull at my arms and legs, but they wouldn't budge.

I looked around me in horror at the cloaked beings that surrounded me as they looked down at me with soulless black eyes and dirty grins upon their faces. Then I heard a growl from the foot of the altar and I slowly looked toward it. I grew wide eyed when I saw the beast was naked and wanting! And it was about to crawl on top of me…

When it sneered and grabbed the edges of the altar, I screamed.

Mark's head shot in his female's direction and his eyes narrowed. The fucker will not rape my female!

He quickly turned to Jay and grabbed her arm then flitted to the fiery stone altar where the fiend's minions held Angie down then released the Angel. Jay's eyes grew wide then narrowed into sparkling slits as Mark seethed beside her.

Big Show halted then growled something to its minions in another language. Some of the minions looked at Mark and Jay and hissed at them. Jay's eyes grew wide again as her palms heated immensely.

Then with a scream, she smote all of the minions as they prepared to attack them. I screamed again, my mind quickly leaving.

The beast growled then stood to its full height. My eyes grew wide as Jay's had. She couldn't move because she knew Big Show would slay her where she stood. Remembering her promise to her mate, she wisely remained where she was.

I couldn't move because of the invisible binds that held me down. I screamed in frustration then looked over at Mark and Jay as they squared off with the beast.

"Mark, we meet once again. I have to say, your female's blood is so delicious, it's orgasmic." It growled, licking its saliva-laden lips.

Mark quickly looked at his female with wide eyes. He spotted a deep gash upon her stomach and fury enveloped him. Oh hell no.

"You fuck with my family and I'll make you famous, you son of a bitch!" Mark roared then dove at the beast as they began to fight.

Jay and Harley then ran to me as Harley began deciphering the spell that bound me to this damned altar. I couldn't take my eyes away from Mark as he fought with sheer fury and brutality. Both fought, blow for blow, claw for claw, and fangs for fangs.

Mark was enraged, to say the least. When he witnessed the beast about to rape his female, he saw nothing but red. He knew he had to save her now, to have her back home, safe and sound within his arms once again where she belonged.

Where he would never let anything happen to her like this ever again.

He needed to kill this motherfucker!

Harley relinquished me from those invisible binds as the beasts' army was finally defeated. Now all of the supernatural creatures watched on as the Vampire king and the king of the Underworld fought.

Jay quickly covered me with a robe as I struggled to sit up. I saw the beast slash its filthy claws across Mark's chest and he roared.

That unmistakable heat rose within me as my eyes flooded black. Jay and Harley's eyes grew wide and they backed away from me as electricity crackled about me. I narrowed my eyes and lifted my right hand toward the beast's back then screamed as electricity shot from palm on into Big Show's back. The beast staggered as Mark saw a chance to prevail and took it.

He roared then jammed his claws into the beast's chest, pulling out its beating black heart. Everyone gasped as the beast's eyes grew wide. Black blood splattered from the hole in its chest as blood seeped from its sagging mouth. It's red scaly skin turned to a sickly grayish color and it fell to its knees as I passed out.

Before the beast perished, it glared up at Mark. Gurgling, it then fell flat on its front in a dead bloody heap. Mark dropped the now still heart then walked to the altar and lifted his female's unconscious body into his arms, everyone cheering their glorious victory. The portal soon opened once more as the Underworld began to rumble, its damned set free to control and trash it.

Mark then flitted through the portal as everyone vanished through it as well…

Space

Mark tried to revive her but came to no avail. Jay could see that her sister was healed but wondered why she would not wake. Even she did not know the answer. Jay and Glenn's eyebrows remained furrowed as they watched Mark plead for Angie to awaken.

But nothing was happening. Mark perceived it to be too late whereas Jay knew otherwise.

She is recuperating, Mark. Let her rest."

He glanced at Jay then back down at his motionless female. She laid within her bed with her delicate hands folded upon her stomach. He could see the steady rise and fall of her chest as she still breathed, which was a blessing.

Jay had dressed Angie in a rich purple gown after bathing her. Now Mark sat at her bedside and bared his face in his hands. This was all of his fault. If he hadn't have enthralled Angie at that ball then kissed her…

Heavens, he fucked up big time. He wanted his destined female so badly that he put her in harms way; to be kidnapped then almost raped. Ancients, he could only imagine what that had done to her mind. He hoped Jay was right in that his female was just recuperating. He hoped she'd awaken soon because if she didn't, he'd follow her and die himself.

A red tear rolled down his cheek and he cried, unable to hold it in any longer. His anguished sobs sounded throughout the silent palace as sadness loomed everywhere. In the distance, a lone wolf howled to the full moon, the sound melancholic and haunting…

Space

Harley gave Angelica warm broth mixed with some healing herbs to ensure she'd awaken soon. They were to preserve her eternal life and to keep her healthy. Many days passed and there still was no sign of her waking. Harley bathed her every day, dressing her in beautiful nightgowns.

She combed Angelica's long hair and tended to her as Jay prayed for her sister. Both stayed by Angelica's side whereas Mark locked himself within his bedroom. He wouldn't feed, eat, or sleep as the guilt of what he caused was literally killing him. He grew pale as bluish purple bruises smudged the skin beneath his eyes.

Glenn and Jay remained at Mark's palace, but they always cringed when nightfall came. Mark would roar almost constantly, throwing the things within his room about and trashing everything in sight. He would never be the same without Angie as she ultimately was his salvation. Without her, he was dead inside.

He just couldn't bring himself to see her, so he remained locked within his room, withering just like her rose…
