Chapter 2 The Midnight Visitor Part 2
(Serena's POV)
Serena couldn't breathe, Kyle had been cutting off her air for about two minutes and every time she tried to gather a little shred of her powers she couldn't pick up anything. Slowly, the dark bedroom around her began to spin; she kept opening and closing her eyes to bring her surroundings into focus.
The only reason, as far as Serena knew, she had stayed conscious this long was because of the warrior still inside her and would not give up. Looking over at her friends and fellow daughters, they were screaming for her and behind some sort of invisible barrier. Kyle looked like he was trying to say something to her but she no longer tell (this is where I should've let it end in the last chap). The overwhelming need to faint was taking over, either the room or my head is spinning.
All of a sudden Serena's balcony doors burst open with such force that the top glass pains shattered all over her carpet. Then the room became enveloped in a misty darkness.
Kyle let go and jumped off of her; Serena shot up gasping for air, one hand grasping the leopard print sheets below her to steady herself the other clutching around her neck. What made him get up? Serena asked herself, confused. Looking across the room to where Kyle had flattened himself up against the wall, complete and utter terror was etched into his face. She would've laughed if it weren't for two things 1) She was still in shock/terror and 2) She didn't know what this dark mist was. Wait, Serena thought as she stared at the darkness while it tore at the air and began to form a human figure, with blond hair. Stanton!?
Serena watched, enticed, as Stanton glared down at seemed to be left of Kyle at the moment. Stanton's usually extremely sexy features were contorted and had become terrifying, not just to Kyle. She could tell her lover was past being livid. Faster than what she could see, Stanton's hand closed around Kyle's neck and the other arm below his ribs, holding him about six inches off of the floor.
"You never touch her! And how could you, she's protected by me!? It's not physically possible for you to harm her!" Stanton shouted , his voice booming throughout the room still carrying even though he was speaking through gritted teeth. Kyle seemed to pull it together a little and mumble something that sounded close to "kill" or "mine". Serena could tell that Stanton was tearing though Kyle's mind trying to get her powers back. When it looked like he found them he turned his head to Serena (not an exorcist move!) and went into her mind, giving her almost lost powers back. It looked as though Stanton was ready to kill him and Kyle knew it and wasn't going to give up without a fight. Then the air around began to spark and crackle from the amount of power surging around him.
Serena stood, ready to kill the basterd. She turned toward her friends too reassure that she was ok and not hurt. Collin was awake, tending to Jimena, and had successfully revived her. They looked both shocked and pissed at the same time. Stanton turned to check on her and in that exact moment Kyle had finally mustered up enough courage to turn into shadow and escape through the shattered balcony doors. She wanted to go after him and kill herself but Kyle had made her weaker than she had thought. Serena now felt that she had to fall over, her muscles were sore from lack of oxygen, and her heart felt like it was about to explode from the adrenaline rush. Though Stanton seemed more than ready and was practically out the door until Serena asked him to stay and wait. I know you are furious, but we'll both go after him another time. Serena whispered across his mind, trying to calm him down a little. Revenge would come soon.
Stanton understood and gently pulled Serena into his arms. His shaggy blonde hair had fell into his neon blue eyes still not hiding the pure unadulterated loathing in his eyes. Stanton kept his around her as if never wanting to let go, if he did she would fade away.
The barrier that Kyle had put up began to slowly dissipate and freeing the daughters and her shocked brother.
(Stanton's POV)
That little sh*t is going to pay for what he did! How could I let this happen to Serena, she almost got killed? I should have destroyed him when I had the chance! He knew the only reason he didn't just kill Kyle the first time he went into his mind was because he knew better. He couldn't just go around killing guys that liked her and thought Serena was hot, though he wished he could. Stanton couldn't get into trouble for it, but it would make him into some overprotective jerk. I am a little overprotective but hopefully not that much, yet. But after what that little thing did to Serena, regulators are going too seem like nothing compared to me, and what I'll do to him.
Serena let go and walked over to her friend to see if they were ok. She looked back at him and whispered wait a minute across his mind. Nodding he walked out to the balcony, over the broken glass, and looked up to the sky while Serena was with them. He thought back to when he first meet Serena, how forbidden it was, and how everyone was against it. He didn't even notice coming out side.
Are you ok? I'm better now, but still a little shaky, Serena looked up at him tilting her head and peering into his eyes. Her green eyes gave everything away, that she was still a little unnerved and scared after almost getting killed.Yeah, I'm fine. Stanton responded and cupping her face with his hands.
Liar, she told him smiling, were you going to leave?
No, looking directly into her eyes, but do you want me to?
Please don't go.
Do you think they will mind? Serena, they haven't really liked me lately. Also, if you father finds us? Stanton said into her mind, trying to be sensible but his heart wasn't in it and had the greatest urge just to say yes and just have her fall asleep in his arms.
Sensing his turmoil, trying to be rational, and knowing that he wanted to stay more than anything in the world she reassured him I don't care if they mind, I just want you to saty tonight. That's all , we won't be doing anything.
He smiled and lifted her face to his and kissed her. Serena got her answer.
