Their Love (completed)

Kapitel 1: Chapter 1

I remember him looking at me, and loving that look. But now, his eyes have lost their light. I look into his dark cold eyes. The same ones that had love in them a few days prior. He is ready to kill me. He stares at me, like I am the one thing he hates most. My heart aches, seeing him stare at me like this. He was always a kind prince.

I loved him. I still love him. Liam Spindal. Well, not this him. But the one who always helped me when I needed him, the one who always had a bright smile, the one who always cheered me up. While I don't like this him, I can't help but want to hug him when he looks so cold. He lights his fist on fire, ready to burn me.

"Any last words?" Liam pants, as he suddenly starts sweating tremendously. He continues panting, as I look at him with worried eyes. He wants to kill me, but I'm worried about him? I need to gain control of my feelings. The one I love, he isn't coming back, he is a fake. The one I hoped for, but didn't get. He is lost.

"I..." Liam looks at me longingly, like I have something that he wants. "I love you" I continue. He needed to know before I die, that I loved him. That even though he's like this, he's probably a nicer guy to others. He may have a grudge against my family, like everyone else.

Liam seems to be caught off guard by what I said. He starts shaking, and his eyes don't have that cold look anymore. They are filled with...sadness? They look glittery, but they also look a bit happy. Suddenly, he jolts his head back, and roars in agony.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" I start worrying. I can't help but worry, even though he's the one trying to kill me.

"I'm fine" Liam responds in reassurance. "I'm going to kill you" Liam says, as though he's trying to convince himself he can. He puts a hand to my throat, ready to kill me. But before applying pressure, he stops. He starts to sweat again. "I'm g-going to kill...you" Liam's voice trembles saying the last word.

He falls to floor. I immediately shoot down next to him. I carefully lay his head in my lap. Please...don't let the one that I love get hurt. Why did he suddenly pass out? Is he going to be alright?

I realize, for what seems like the millionth time, that I am worrying for the one who's trying to kill me. He starts to open his eyes and I see the longing in his eyes again. He trembles in my lap.

"Are you...are you going to be okay?" I manage to ask him. He puts his hand to my face, and moves his fingers in a wiping motion. Am I...crying? I didn't even notice.

I feel my cheeks heat up a bit. He looks at me with kind eyes, the eyes I've been wanting to see, the eyes of the person I fell in love with. He quickly gets up in one motion, and pulls me up by my wounded arm. I wince. He notices this and switches arms. He pushes me against a wall.

"You are going to be okay" Liam tells me.

"B-but-" he covers my mouth.

" I won't kill you. You're going to stay by my side," he turns a slight light shade of pink. He takes his hand away, and looks in another direction. He mumbles something incoherently, and then curses. He grabs the same arm from before and pulls me to his chest. He grabs my waist, and I freeze. What's he doing?

His wings start flapping, and we start levitating off the ground. I hug him close to me, so I don't fall. We start going higher, then go off in some unknown direction. I tighten my grip. I can hear him breathing, and hear him chuckle a bit. He sounds like my Liam too. I burry my face in his chest, so that I'm not looking at the now far away ground.

When we get to a dark forest, we start going down. When we reach the ground, I start to relax, almost not noticing his arms hovering near my waist. Is he worried I'm going to run? Or is it that he...is worried about me? No, I shouldn't get my hopes up.

I look up at him again. He looks at me with fear. Fear for what? I don't know. I hear a howl, coming from the forest. It startles me, and I jump. His hovering arms, aren't hovering anymore. They snake around my waist and pull me a bit closer. I don't resist. I don't want something to attack me! Plus part of him still acts like the old him, and his smell is almost exactly the same. I want to hug him.

It took me a few minutes before I realized I did. He hugs me back, and I feel him rubbing my back slowly. Is he trying to comfort me? I lay my head against his shoulder.

"I have bad news for you." Liam hugs me a bit tighter, but it doesn't hurt. His hand quickens while rubbing my back. I feel like puddy in his arms.

" What is it" I say trembling. Is he going to kill me? Then why is he comforting me? I don't understand.

"You're going to have to stay by my side, no matter what happens," Liam pauses. "Don't leave my side unless I tell you to, okay?" I freeze up. I am not supposed to leave his side? He still strangely feels like Liam, the one who's no longer here. It doesn't bother me much, that I'm to stay by his side.

He loosens his grip on my waist, and I tighten mine on his ribs. I don't want to let him go. "We're going now" Liam whispers to me. He breaks the hug, but keeps his left arm around my waist. Somehow he manages to walk, and hold my waist with one arm. He pulls me foreword as he walks. When we get to this glowing oval-shaped thing, we stop.

He lets go of my waist, and walks foreword, with his hand out. The glowing oval-shaped thing starts giving off a dark aura. He takes my hand, and stares at it for a long time.

I walk foreword, so I'm closer to him. He uses his nails to cut my hand. I wince, and he pulls my hand to the oval-shaped thing. He puts my hand right up to it. It shines a bright light, and my cut is healed. I notice as well that my arm is also healed. He puts my hand up to his mouth and kisses it gently. Then he walks through the oval, and pulls me along. So it was a portal?

We entered a dark world, that has a huge castle. He grabs my waist, and we start flying again. We land on a big balcony. He lets go of me, and walks over to a big bed. He looks back at me, expectantly.

"Aren't you tired?" Liam asks. I nod. He sighs. He grabs my hand and pulls me to the bed. He pushes my back, and I fall foreword on the bed. He wraps the covers around me, and stands there for a moment. He walks around the bed and gets in. We stare at each other.

"Are you going to sleep?" Liam asks me. I nod, and hold back the urge to cuddle with him. But I didn't need to, because he cuddles me as I fall asleep.

I slowly start to wake up. When I do, I find Liam staring at me. I quiver at his cold stare. His eyes start going gentle. He closes his eyes, and pulls me closer to him. We stay like that for a bit, and then he gets up. I sit up,and look at him with confusion. He walks over to two big doors, and opens them.

"Here, put this on" Liam throws something at me, and it hits me in the face. He walks over to the balcony and looks out it, giving me privacy. I look at the dress. It is short and flowing, it has lace connecting the dress to the collar. It is black. I put it on and find out I fit in it perfectly.

"I'm done" I say to him. He turns around immediately. He walks slowly over to me and puts a hand on my cheek. He touches our foreheads. My heart starts pounding, I can barely breathe from happiness.

His arm is already around me when he pulls me along to the next room.

The room is dark themed, and is very old looking. He stops me in front of a chair, and pulls it out.

"Well? Aren't you going to have a seat?" Liam asks me. He's always expecting something of me, and I don't ever understand. I miss knowing what he means. I take a seat, and he pushes me in. He sits down next to me, and a couple of people walked in. One is a girl in chef's outfit, she is beautiful. She has long purple hair, and her bangs are almost covering her pale blue eyes. She has a sweet smile, and looks kind. Next to her is a dark haired man, who has a suit on, but weirdly has a cat sitting on his head. He looks calm, but at the same time, irritated.

A young girl, maybe 13-14 years of age comes running in. She has long navy blue hair, she's small and petite. She looks panicked. Is she okay? Is she in trouble with Liam?

"Onii-Chan! I'm sorry to interrupt...but he's here" she pauses to look at me, then back at him. "We need to hide...her" her voice gets real low for the last part. She must be his little sister...

"Lilly, where is he?" Liam asks.

"I'm right here" a man comes walking in the door. He has light blue hair, and is in a black cloak. "What are you trying to hide from me now, brother" he looks at me.

"This is a friend I made in town, onii-Chan " Lilly answers. "She's really nice, please don't scare her..." Lilly pleads. Liam gets out of his chair and stares at him.

"Zack I see you came for a visit." He sounds so calm.

"Yes. Now who is she really?" Zack asks.

"Like I said 'she's m-" Zack slaps Lilly.

"Don't lie to me!"

I stand up ready to attack, when Liam goes in front of me, in a protective stance. Zack walks from Lilly to Liam slowly. I look over at Lilly, and see her tearing up. I run over to her immediately.

"I-I-I-It hurts" she whimpers to me, when I hug her. She has a scratch on her left cheek from the slap. I cradle her in my arms. I start listening in on the conversation they're having.

"I told you to kill the Morrison girl! She was supposed to be the thing to make war break out, then we could overthrow the Morrison kingdom. Since you can't do anything right, I guess I have to do it myself." Zack walks away from Liam, and walks toward us. I clutch Lilly tighter, and position her so that she's safe from getting hit again. She starts quivering in fear.

"So...you're the Morrison girl...you have some nerve still walking around" Zack says. Black dust starts seeping out of his hand. Liam steps in front of us.

"If you're going to hurt her, you'll have to kill me first!"

"Liam step out of the way" Zack looks annoyed.

"No!" Liam's voice gets deep. I clutch Lilly tighter, then let her go. She looks up at me, worried. I smile at her. She grabs my arms tight. I think she knows what I'm about to do.

"It was nice meeting you Lilly" I say. I sound surprisingly calm, considering I'm going to die. I stand up and look at Zack.

"Liam, you're eyes are bloodshot, what's wrong? You don't seriously care about her, do you?" Liam walks to Zack.

"Stay...Away!" Liam pauses "Stay away from her" his voice breaks as he gestures toward me. "Don't you dare hurt her, or I will kill you myself!" My eyes widen. Zack smiles.

"You wouldn't, you can't. You were supposed to kill...Violet...was it?" Zack looks at me. "But you wouldn't, I bet you're afraid to kill someone. You think you're not going to stop killing once you've killed." Liam turns around, and he walks over to me. He pushes me out of the room, with Lilly. Before we left he said something to Zack, that I think made Zack sort of start to accept me.

"You're right, I'm afraid of that. I'm afraid of becoming like you. I LOVE her..."
