Chapter Seven
Mary-Lynette's POV:
I clench my hand tightly around the stake, my heart beating fast. Obviously, Ash's father blames me for Ash's change of heart. He glares at me, fire in his eyes.
"Your going to die for what you did. You broke my son, now I'm going to break you," he snarls, his fangs flashing brightly. My hand shakes just a little then the world takes on a bit of clarity.
He leaps at me, eyes flashing. I have time to jump out of the way before he hits. I swing my stake, catching him in the cheek. He snarls in pain and anger. I don't think I'm strong enough to do this.
Leap, dodge, leap, dodge. Were captured in a perpetual dance that I will lose if I don't do something soon. I see Ash stir out of the corner of my eye just as a hand grabs me and throws me against the wall.
I clench my teeth against crying out. Ash gets up, his eyes red with fury. He hits his father over and over again. His eyes are frantic, afraid even. His father looks stunned and surprised.
"Don't let her control you. You can break free!" his father yells wildly.
"Mare, the stake," Ash says, his voice deathly quiet. I hand him the stake, my hands shaking. I stand up, sore but otherwise okay.
I watch Ash drive the stake through his father's heart. I duck my head as Ash stands. He grabs me, pulls me into his arms and hides his head in my shoulder.
I hold him, rocking him back and forth. His tears wet my shoulder as I stroke his hair. I wish it hadn't of come to this. Maybe there was some way to prevent this. Maybe me being with him puts him in danger. I mean look at what happened.
I love him but if it's dangerous for us to be together... I'm not going to let Ash get hurt. Maybe we were never meant to be together. These doubts run through my head and I'm not sure what to think.
