Hey. So I just finished reading Reign yesterday. (The forth book of the series that came out yesterday November 3rd) and I must say that I loved it. Not a surprise. That makes you want to own the unfortunate fairytales series. But sadly I don't. Ok let's get going.
Mina is just sitting at home smiling about her day. Today she got Ever in trouble by pulling the fire alarm and blaming it on Ever. She couldn't help but smile.
"Mina go to your mirror and do the evil queen trick. I need to talk to you face to face."
Mina knew it was Jared so she did as she was told. She went to her bathroom took the mirror and went to her rooftop escape. She wondered what was so important that Jared wants to talk face to face with her.
"Mirror, mirror on the wall show me the one I love most of all." Mina said. Jared then appeared with a smile on his face.
"Are you ok? You actually seem happy and cheerful." Mina said with some confusion in her voice.
"Yes I am ok. I am just smiling because I have great news. Also it is nice to see your beautiful face again." Jared replies.
Mina now intrigued says, "Go on."
"Today after your little stunt with Ever I gained a major power surge. Teague was there and he looked pretty scared. Now it comes to the point where if I get one more major power surge my chains will break. Then all that is needed is for you to come to the Fae plain to use the Fae book on me. I will be free and then the fun begins." Jared says with a mixture of emotions.
"Really now. Well if that's the case I guess I need to find something to do that will give you that needed power." Mina says.
"Yes and I have an idea on what you should do." Jared says with a smirk on his face.
"What would that be?" Mina asks leaning forward.
"All you have to do is go off on your friends. First Nan, then Nix, and finally Brody. He has to get it the worst. A couple of mean things said and it will be perfect. Going off on your best friends in the human world is considered rude and mean. Besides it will hurt them badly." Jared explains.
"Yell at Brody that is easy. But Nan and Nix. They have done so much for me. I don't know if I can just yell at them for no reason." Mina says with a sad tone.
"What is this? My dark queen is having trouble yelling at some humans. Unbelievable." Jared says with confusion. "Look Mina just think if I am free then we can fix everything later. Your friends will understand. But if it troubles you then I guess you could only yell at one but it has to be pretty harsh." Jared says in a calm soothing voice.
Mina thought it over. She could just yell at Brody and that will free Jared. She doesn't know why though it bothers her to yell at Nan and Nix. She was about to say something when a feeling of pure darkness came over her. It overwhelmed her. She even screamed. Jared who figured out what was going on started to panic. He knows human are not used to that feeling, mainly because it is something only Faes get. He wondered how Mina is getting this feeling but then remember how sometimes Mina taps into Fae power without realizing it.
"Mina listen to me. You need to calm down and follow my voice. Think about our memories, our plans, everything." Jared instructed her.
Mina nodded and took a deep breath. She thought about everything related to Jared. His hair. His attitude. His smile. She started to feel calmer and soon the feeling went away and left her with her normal dark feeling. When she was able to speak she asked Jared what just happened.
"When you panic or worry a little too much that feeling will come over you. Even when you doubt something too much or are in a split decision it will come over you. So now let me ask you what were you thinking about?" Jared replies.
"I was thinking about what I can do to help you. I started to wonder why it bothers me to say some mean things to Nan and Nix when I made Ever bleed. I wanted to figure out why and I guessed I panicked."
"Well be careful from own on. Besides I know you will do the right thing in the end that will release me from my "prison" I must go now but remember…" Jared's calm tone faded being replaced by a cold acid like voice, "I need this power and you are the only one to give it to me. Don't let emotions stop you." His calm voice returned, "If you do let the emotions get to you, we will never get to be together and we will never get to do what we planned to do."
Mina looked into his eyes and saw his feeling of hope and love. She knew he became evil because of her. She knew that he would do anything for her if they switched roles. She knew that if he was freed he do everything in his power (and that's a lot of power) to make her life perfect and to make sure everyone that ever messed with her would be punished. She knew that he loved her more than life itself. And she feels the exact same way about him. She let the dark feeling inside her gain more control when she said to him, "I will do everything to free you. For you are the one I love forever. And I will not let worthless feelings of guilt for others stop me from saving you."
Jared smiled an evil smile and knew that she is letting the darkness mix with her love just like he did. With her by his side forever no one will be able to stop them, since they would do anything for each other. He said goodbye to Mina and watched her fade away. Their plan was coming together perfectly.
Mina looked at the mirror and saw her reflection. She even saw a dark shadow around her starting to form. She then said, "In a matter of time I will be reunited with my love and then we can have some fun." With that she laughed evilly and went back to her room with the mirror.
