After we got home, I then talked with Goliath, and I told him about how Thailog forced me to mate with him.
"He raped you?!", Goliath snarled angrily. "I tried to stop him, but he used a metal contraption to prevent me from using my magic, and he knocked out Draven.", I cried out in pain as he hugged me.
"He may be my clone, but he has crossed the line too far! He took Dagian from us for a bit, took you against your will! He's a bad Gargoyle, and I know Draven would feel the same as well.". I felt Draven growl angrily in agreement.
"I hope he's dead.", I whispered as I nuzzled Goliath's chest tightly. "I hope so too, my love.", Goliath whispered lightly as he held me warmly.
I was in my apartment. Morgan had told me what happened, and I couldn't believe all of that was happening while I was here. I then heard a knock on my window. I saw Blaze, and I went over to open the window. "Hi, Blaze, nice to see you!", I said with a grin.
"Elisa, I came here to talk about your feelings for me.", Blaze said softly. "What about it?", I asked curiously, half feeling hopeful that this is it.
"After months of thinking, I finally made my decision.", Blaze said with a nod. "What did you decide?", I asked with excitement.
"The truth is... Elisa...I...can't be with you.", Blaze said with pain and sadness in voice. I felt my heart shatter when I heard him say those words. "Blaze, don't say that! You just need time, and that will work. I can wait until you change your mind!", I said desperately.
"Elisa, I know you feel sad, and probably mad at me. I love you, but the truth is that I could never be with you as my secrets are too much for you.", Blaze said softly, and I started to feel tears in my eyes.
"Blaze, I accept you for who you are! Why can't you just see that?!", I cried as I grabbed his hands. "Elisa, I'm sorry. I made my decision, but can we just be friends?", Blaze asked quietly.
"You just want to be friends, after fucking everything we went through?!", I snarled angrily. Every word I said, I regretted it. I can't believe it! Blaze doesn't want to be with me even though he loves me, I thought I could convince him, but as it turns out, I can't.
"Don't cry, Elisa.", Blaze whispered lightly as he used a finger to wipe my tears, but I pushed his hand away, and I turned my back to him. "Elisa?", Blaze asked in concern and confusion.
"Leave, Blaze.", I said with a growl. "Elisa, please don't be mad at me. You have to understand.", Blaze said softly as he grabbed my arm gently. I twirled around to face him, my eyes burning of unshed tears.
"Damn it, please leave me alone, Blaze!", I shouted angrily. I could see Blaze's eyes filled with pain and sadness as he then glided out the window.
I fell to my knees, and I started crying out all I could bear. "Why, Blaze?! How can you do this to me? After all I have done to convince you!", I sobbed out, my chest heaving out, my heart breaking furiously as it beat against my chest.
I couldn't convince him to feel love in a mate! He has been able to learn other emotions, but one that he can't feel is love. "Why can't you understand that I freaking love you?!", I sobbed loudly.
The next day I was assigned a case with Goliath, and Angela was babysitting Dagian. What was really weird is that Elisa didn't show up to work, so I asked Matt or Maria if they have seen her, but they haven't.
After the day was over, I headed back to my apartment with Goliath. I saw Angela rocking Dagian's crib. "How's he doing, Angela?", Goliath asked with a smile. "He had been behaving good. He's a great brother!", Angela grinned softly.
Goliath then started to tickle Dagian. "Here comes the tickle monster, Dagian!", Goliath growled playfully. Dagian giggled as he waved his hands.
"The family is all together.", I said with a giggle. "It's really nice to have parents and a brother.", Angela nodded with a content smile.
"Angela, have you seen Elisa?", I asked curiously. "No, I haven't seen her.", Angela said with a shake of her head, frowning lightly.
"I'm going to her apartment.", I said with a nod. "We will go with you.", Angela said softly as she picked up Dagian as Goliath got up from his kneeling position.
I knocked on Elisa's door and to my shock, it's open. "Why would Elisa leave her door open? That's not like her.", I said with worry.
"Elisa!", I called out as we came in. "Look at this place.", Angela said with wide eyes. The apartment was in chaos, food everywhere on the floors, books ripped. Only the painted picture of Elisa was untouched.
I then heard crying. "I hear something from Elisa's room.", I said softly. "Let's go see what it is.", Goliath said with a nod. We all went to Elisa's room, and I opened the door.
I saw Elisa on her bed crying. "Elisa, what's wrong? Why are you crying?", I asked as I sat beside her. "This is the worst thing ever, Sally. Blaze told me...he doesn't want to be with me!", Elisa sobbed as she lifted her head up from her knees.
"WHAT!?", I shouted in shock and fury. "Not Little Shadow!", Goliath growled lowly. "Why did he do that?!", Angela gasped in shock.
"What did he say to you?!", I asked with a growl. "He told me that he doesn't want to be with me. He still thinks I won't accept him for who he is, and I got so sad and angry that I yelled at him to leave.", Elisa sobbed loudly as she leaned against my chest, her body shaking.
"Why can't Blaze understand that you love him?", I said with a frustrated growl. "But can't you convince him? You have been able to before! Maybe he will realize that he made a mistake.", Angela said, trying to reassure Elisa.
"Sorry, Angela, but he made it said that he loves me, but he just wants to be friends with me.", Elisa cried, her voice breaking. "I can't believe him! After all you have done for him, he just wants you to be his friend.", I growled angrily.
"That's not right! Blaze should have seen that you are perfect for him! What is that idiot thinking?!", Angela growled furiously. "I know that Little Shadow has been adapting to learn other emotions from his siblings, but he should have known love by now!", Goliath growled angrily.
"I love him, guys. Blaze...he just...couldn't seem to learn how to love.", Elisa cried softly as she slowed down, hiccuping every now and then. I couldn't believe Blaze! He really can't learn to love.
We had taken Elisa to the clock tower where we told everyone about how Blaze had said to Elisa that he can't be with her, and everyone was shocked.
"How dare he do that to Elisa?!', Brooklyn growled angrily. "Why, Blaze?!", Morgan asked, crying out to the air.
"How can he do this to you?", Colin asked with a snarl. "Doesn't he know that you will accept him just the way he is.", Chris asked with a upset look.
"Blaze loves you, Elisa.", Lacey said with a growl. "I know, Lacey, but he freaking wants to be friends with me only!", Elisa sobbed again.
"What?! Be friends with you after what you guys went through with us for freaking so long?!", Broadway bellowed angrily. "Blaze just doesn't understand love like we do!', Lexington moaned in dismay.
"How could he do such a thing to one of our clan like this?!", Hudson growled lowly. "When I find him again, Little Shadow will be punished for hurting Elisa like this!", Goliath snarled lowly.
I hugged Elisa as she continued to cry out in pain, and I growled lightly, frustrated and angry at Blaze for hurting Elisa like this.
I was in the woods as I couldn't shake off the guilt of having said that to Elisa, and I felt tears fall down my face. Elisa is a remarkable woman, and she would make a great mate, but my secrets would be too much for her.
Which is why I said that to her, but now I have broken her heart, and she might never want to see me again. I was too afraid to go back to the tower because I knew everyone would be mad at me for breaking Elisa's heart.
"I'm sorry, Elisa, but this is for the best.", I whispered softly with tears falling down my face still. I had my gun reloaded as I would go search for the next Hunter.
"I have to kill them for the safety of the Gargoyles.", I said with a soft growl. It would be a very long time until the clan will see me again. I wonder how my siblings are doing. They are probably mad at me for hurting Elisa.
"I'm sorry, everyone.", I said with a heavy sigh as I glided with tears falling down my face.
Never have I been so depressed in my life. Blaze broke my heart, and I will never find someone else to replace him as he was the one meant for me, but he doesn't see that.
I was in my apartment, and I had fallen asleep on the couch. I found myself in the woods, and I saw what looks like a small cabin with a farm nearby.
"Tell us where he is!", I heard a man shout out loud. I saw a group of people surround a family who had 4 children; 2 boys and 2 girls.
"We will never tell you!", the woman shouted with a protective, angry look. "If you don't tell us where that Gargoyle is, we will kill you.", a woman said lowly with a growl.
I then realized that I was seeing a memory of Blaze of the day..his foster family were killed by the Hunters. "Why do you want to kill him? He is just a kid!", the man shouted with desperation and fury.
"He is too little to die!", one of the young girls said with a fiercely upset look. "So be it if you don't want to tell us.", the man said as he got out a gun.
My eyes widened in horror as the other Hunters got out their guns and I was forced to watch them shoot the man and woman, who I presumed were the foster parents of Blaze.
"Mom! Dad!", the kids shouted, crying out in horror and terror, tears everywhere. They were huddled together, sobbing. "What about the kids?", one of the Hunters asked emotionless.
"Kill them as well.", the head Hunter said lowly, nothing in his dark eyes. "No.", I gasped in horror. I saw them shoot the kids in the heads, and I covered my hands over my mouth as I was crying. I can't believe it!
They had no heart! They were just kids! Innocent kids! I saw the Hunters leave the place, and they got on a jet, leaving the crime scene. I then saw a figure come out from on top of the trees, and I saw that it was Blaze.
"Mom! Dad!", Blaze cried as he ran up to them, and he was shaking them. "Please wake up! Please!" Blaze cried out as he shook them. He then tried to wake up the kids.
"Please don't die!", Blaze cried even harder as he then moved one of his foster siblings, and he saw the gunshot wound on her head. Blaze cried even more, and it was making me cry even harder as well.
I saw he did the same to his other adopted siblings, and he saw the gunshot wounds on their heads as well. Blaze fell to his knees, and he hit the ground with his fists.
"Why?! Why?!", Blaze cried out loud. Then he roared so loudly that I felt his pain throughout me. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!", Blaze screamed out loud as he looked so terrified, so broken.
"Blaze...", I whispered in horror and worry. I then felt myself wake up, gasping in realization that I saw Blaze's past, and now I can understand why he is like this, why he is unable to feel love, and why he prefers to be alone.
Those Hunters killed his family in a very cold way! I felt tears fall down my face as I just can't believe Blaze went through all that as this is why he killed those Hunters as revenge.
"I'm so sorry, Blaze. I finally understand why you think I couldn't accept you after all this, but I do. I love you, Blaze.", I whispered softly as I cried.
