Capítulo 30: Violence solves everything. (Chapter 29)

"No! No! I won't allow this. I'll fight him-" I protest.

"No! I will." Kion says grinning swirling around his jaw. His hands balled up in a fist. He was ready to do serious damage.

"Ryan we already said-" Drake argued

"Hey! Street boy I get to pick, and I choose me." He says eyeing me. I see an idea has suddenly come to light in his head as his smile doubles in size.

"I also declare there shall be a prize, the winner shall get a kiss from Princess Karina herself."

"That's enough Kion!" Ryan's booming voice shut up all the whispers. One rule with Ryan, don't take him as a fool, or the joke is on you. Oh and seriously don't piss him off to the point of no return. You will regret it.

"Hey King Ryan, that is the prize..." he smiles.

"Kion back off-"

"Fine. I agree." I say winking at Damien. "But whoever wins gets one favour..." I look at Drake thinking this could be a way for Damien to get out without having to break him out. He nods as he understands.

"Do you agree Ryan?" I ask. Ryan stares at me bewildered in what's going on. Fosha to his right pulling down her top slightly.

"I agree." He says sitting down in his throne placing his hand on his temple. Lavria comes to give him a drink. Ryan touches her hand accidentally, but there was a spark. One so clear that Kion took notice. Ryan smiled and thanked her. Fosha took notice too and so did Drake, they had a spark, but it wasn't the right time or place.

———————————————

The guards gave Damien a sword, and Kion armed himself with his. This was supposed to be entertainment, but watching is making my insides curl. I watch them as they circle each other. Damien is pissed off for Kions comment, and Kion just likes to fight. Kion taunts him with fake advances but Damien is too skilled to fall for it.

"Come on Lightning, hit me!" Kion screams. Damien doesn't do taunts he keeps his cool and watches his movements. Kion doesn't think when he fights, he fights on impulse whereas Damien uses technique giving Damien the upper hand. Kion lunges at Damien and he swiftly moves his sword to dodge. He strikes from underneath but Kion is too quick and swerves around him knocking him down. But Damien prepares for that and rolled to his feet. He takes many slashes to Kion but kion was wearing armour and Damien was bare chested. Kion took one lucky shot at Damien and sliced him across his chest. Damien screeched at the stinging pain but he did not falter and strikes Kion at his arm ripping through his shirt deeply slicing his arm. Kion was in pain but that one slice unleashed the devil. Kion sword was unpredictable slicing Damien at all angles. I closed my eyes I couldn't look. And I heard a thud. Damien was lying in a pool of his own blood. And Kion was next to him clutching his face and stomach. Damien tried to get up, but Kion got up first. Smiling to his victory.

"So where is my prize-" suddenly Kion dropped to the floor and Damien had his sword to his throat.

"Enough!" Fosha screamed. Damien stopped but he didn't take his eyes off of Kion. His eyes blinded with hatred. The guards intervened and grabbed Damien off of Kion, Kion was fuming. Never had I seen such anger. But I couldn't contain my joy I squealed with happiness and Damien was gleaming.

"So.. where is MY prize?" Damien taunted Kion looked furious but he laughed.

"Karina would never kiss a lightning." He spat.

"Really?" I say face to face with Kion. Damien wraps his hand in my hair and pulls me close smirking before closing his eyes and our Lips meet. This was right, right now and here, him with me is right. After loosing myself for a second, I feel someone yank down on my hair causing me to fall backwards. I fall into Kion's arms as he doesn't let go clutching it tight.

"THAT IS YOUR SOULMATE?!" He grits through his teeth eyes wide, staring down at me.

"I asked you a DAMN QUESTION!" He pulled tighter.

"YES!" I screamed. Damien sprung up and tried to hit him but all the guards grabbed him and pinned him to the floor restraining him.

"GET YOUR FUCKING HANDS OFF OF HER!" One of the guards put a rope in Damien's mouth restricting him from talking. He grunted in objection fighting with every inch of his body. kions grip tightened and I screamed. I felt like he was going to rip the hair off of my head. Drake arms himself and charges towards Kion. Kion mustered the dark forces and hurled drake to the edge of the room.

"Anyone else?!" He screamed challenging.

"KION LET HER GO NOW!" Ryan shouted. Ryan realised the people in the room. "EVERYONE LEAVE US!" The Spectators scurried out of the room at Ryan's order leaving me, the guards holding Damien, Kion, Drake, Fosha, Lavria, and Ryan. I was overwhelmed by pain. I couldn't think properly I couldn't muster the dark forces. He latched on harder. I genuinely screamed.

"KION!" Ryan screams arming himself with his swords.

"Ahahaa you let your whore of a sister bond with a lightning?" He spits. "shameful."

"Kion if you don't let her go I will-"

"What hmm? Not marry my sister. That's fine. But... if you back out of our deal, then so will I.." He winks at Ryan. I knew that Ryan wouldn't marry Fosha without a life or death reason. We just didn't know what the reason was.

"Face it my king, you need me. Without me, your kingdom will fall." Kion mocks. Damien struggles relentlessly. Kion slithers down to my ear pressing slight kisses on my neck.

"Get off you dog!" I screech he giggles taking joy in my pain.

"Your sexy when you're feisty." He continues to kiss my neck.

"KION ENOUGH!" Says Ryan.

"Fine." He stops kissing me but doesn't release his clutch. "Then we have reached an impasse." He grins as I see a new idea has popped up in his head. "Alright Ryan, now you can do one of two things and I PROMISE to keep my deal with you and you can Marry my sister." He looks down at me then to Damien, who was still struggling to fight off the guards. Damien's gaze to Kion was deadly, the demon was out and it wasn't going back in. I could of sworn his eyes went dark.

"What is it?" Ryan asked.

"You can either give me Karina to have as my own and do with what I wish or..give me that woman standing next to you. As a show of your apology." He points too Lavria and she shudders with fear. Kion saw the spark between Ryan and Lavria, he just wanted to dig the knife in deeper. Ryan had already lost Isla, I was scared he wouldn't be able to handle loosing Lavria. Ryan looks too and fro from me and Lavria. Damien had tears in his eyes. Ryan's eyes were wide with disgust and Drake was waiting for him to give an order.

"Well My King, What will it be?" His grin only grew larger at the extent of his power.

"You will have-"

"ME! You can have me!" I say and he relaxes his grip on me.

—————————————-

"Karina what are you doing!?" Both Drake and Ryan stare at me wide eyed in fear. Kion pushes me to the floor and walks over to Fosha giving her a kiss on the cheek goodbye. Drake runs up to me, helping me to my feet.

"Karina don't do this!" He whispers sword in hand.

"Drake look at Lavria, she won't be able to survive the demonic persona of Kion. He will break her and you know it!" He knows fully well, but he doesn't want to. "If he has me, at least he will have a challenge." He looks at me his face sour. Eyes fluttering as tears come out. He kisses me on my cheek and hugs me tight. "Find out what Kion has on Ryan ok?" I say to Drake as Kion lifts me out of Drakes embrace and tosses me too the floor. Drake punches him but Kion uses his powers to send drake flying. He lifts me again putting his hand on the back of my neck as he leads me out of the hall. I hear 4 thuds. Damien spits the rope out of his mouth and charges straight for Kion. He was blinded by rage, his eyes red as he had a murderous look on his face. He charged straight for Kion... but something was wrong, as soon as he reached us his eyes went wide. He shook in his place, I looked down and saw nothing but red, and a sword in his stomach. And Kion was holding it. He looked at me, the light fleeting from his eyes he dropped to the floor. I mustered whatever Dark forces there were and it exploded in Kions face knocking him down. I rushed to Damien dazed by fear. I dropped to the floor cradling him in my arms as I laid his head on my lap. He tried to speak but the blood had already clogged his throat. But his eyes said it all.

"I love you Karina.." he managed to say. I could barely see him as my eyes flooded with tears. I couldn't think, all I saw was the light fleeting from him and my heart was overwhelmed with ache which crippled me.

"No no PLEASEE SOMEONE HELPLP!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs as Damien latched onto my arm. "Please Damien please hold on, I'm here ok I'm right here. Just don't leave me ok don't go!" I said as my voice was clouded with anguish. I couldn't breathe. Suddenly someone yanked me up by my arms and my face stung as he punched me and I fell to the floor. Still it didn't hurt as much as seeing Damien bleed out in the floor. He reached out to me trying to touch me, and I tried to take his hand as I could heal him. But Kion grabbed me throwing me over his shoulder like a doll and carried me out of the hall as Damien bled out on the floor. I heard his scream of outrage through the halls as he screamed "Karinaaa!" In anguish. But Kion didn't stop. Not even once as my love bled out, unable to escape death.
