I stand and look at the City walls with a scowl. The suns are setting and I know I should take cover for the night but my anger has me rooted to the spot. I was so damn close... I had her... even if it was only for a few moments.
That was all I needed to know that it would work between the two of us. She may be against it now but after being with me for a while she will come around. Other Charmers throw themselves at me but I could care less. It has to be her...Β
She belongs to Alec? Hah! I could care less... I will take her and make her mine. Even if she fights me I know it will only last so long. I can use the controlling calm on her until she gets used to me. To us. I'd like to see how Alec plans to stop me...
I always get what I want and it won't be any different this time. I will kill anyone who stands in my way and if I have to destroy the whole City in the process, then so be it. I clench my fist as I think back to the tunnel.
