Chapter Eleven

Creed

“Aurora, come on.”

“No, Gus. I’ve had enough of you telling me what to do. Father wants me to do this, so I have to.”

“You don’t understand,” I groan, having been pleading with my sister for what feels like an eon.

“I understand completely. You think your new girlfriend is the Chosen one, but I’ve been training for this my entire life. Do I owe Eden? Yes. Did she totally kick ass and save my life? No doubt. But I haven’t come into my powers yet. You have no idea what I will become. I can already do more than most Vampires at this age. Mom wanted this for me as much as Dad does, and I will not disappoint her.” She huffs as she packs her satchel with the books she needs for the day.

“She isn’t here, Aurora. You will die if you do this. I can’t lose you too.”

“I’m not going anywhere, Gus. Maybe you need to talk your girlfriend out of it instead. She might actually listen to you.”

“Not fucking likely.” I grumble, the restraint of the magical bonding strangling me as I try to dissuade Aurora from the trials. While I might not be able to discuss what happened with Eden to her—to anyone other than the other bonded—I’m going to try my damnedest to save my little sister.

“This conversation is over, Gus. You’ve barely paid me any attention this year so far, so let’s not change the habit of a lifetime. You enjoy your day,” she says with a disinterested sigh.

“Aurora, come on. You just nearly died, and I swear, it took ten years off my life. Please, don’t enter the trials. I know what Father thinks, but he wants you to enter for himself. If you were successful, think of the power and status it would bring him.” I try to reason with her.

“Yes, and imagine what it would be like for the infamous Creed to have his little sister be more powerful than him. I love you, Gus, I do, but I’ve had enough of being Creed’s little sister. I want to be Aurora. I deserve that much.” She grabs her satchel from the counter and storms to the door of her room. “Now, get out. I don’t want to be late for class.”

“Please just think about this.” I plead.

“There’s nothing to think about. I already told father that if they ever happen, I would enter. And from all of this, I’m assuming they’re coming. So, I need to get to class and work my ass off to prepare. I don’t have time for this.” She sighs. “Everything Dad did during the Uprising was for this, Gus. He sacrificed so much, we all did. Mum… I can’t just throw that sacrifice away. There isn’t anything you can say that will change my mind. I have to do this. For him. For her. We lost too much already.”

“That’s exactly why you can’t do this, Aurora. We lost too much already. I don’t want to lose you too.
