NOTE/ quite a short chapter but an exciting one =) have fun

With a fluttering heart she waits

Hands twisting, mouth dry

Heavy thoughts, sinking black hole

He is coming....

She feels even more trapped then ever

Suffocated by his hatred, immorality, lust

And his 'so called' love

Because how can he feel that absurdly divine emotion

With a heart as black as coal

She wants to believe in it so much

But how can she

When his dream is to take away her soul for eternity

Escape is the only option

But how is that even possible

When she is so weakened and damaged

There is also the fact that even now

Some part of her doesn't want to leave him

To just give in his will

And surrender her soul

But she won't, not now

Her resilience is a steely spine inside her

And she set on her course

On flees the chains that bound her

And leaving this pain behind

With a sudden burst of anger and impatience

Of her uselessness and suffering

She grabs a chair and hurtles it at the wall

With a satisfying crash

She knows this gesture is hopeless

That neither wall, nor chair will ever yield

So when a leg of the chair buckles slightly

She merely looks at it passively

But then it hits her

Yes it's been dislodged, but how, she should not have the strength to break that iron-strong chair

Then she remembers Dimitri brushing away the missile she sent his way on that first day of their reunion, seemingly without much force

She was not strong enough

But he was

And a bubble of hope rises in her chest

For she has a weapon now

And even though it isn't the greatest

She will use it, and hope, and fight

For freedom

With fury and impatience driving in you limbs and determination in your heart

You go to deliver her from her pitiful existence and bring her to the light

You charge into her rooms passionately intent on taking by force

And to end this stupidity

But

You stop in your tracks

As her large brown eyes come up to meet you

Brimming with sorrow and resignation

Her hands curling in her lap

As she sits waiting for you to come to her

You know instantly that she has finally given up

And there is no need for force, all the urgency seeps out of you

You stride towards her so excited you leave the door open, but soon she will be too far gone to notice

As you take her in your arms

Feeling her tremble beneath your embrace

She is willingly giving herself to you

You nuzzle her neck, inhaling her wonderful scent

And tasting her sweetness on your lips

You fangs ache and venom pools in your mouth

She stiffens in your arms as your incisors brush her skin

And she whispers in your ear

Her voice thick and wet

'Dimitri?'

You are in too deep, filled with her and the thought of having her forever

That you do not realise until the sharp spiked pain rips through your chest

As the ice cold paralysis spreads through your limps, deadening your body

And as you sink to the floor, she kisses your cheeks with lips as warm as the sun

And leaves through the open door whispering in her wake

'I'm sorry'
