Chapter Six
With Terletov gone, the battle became a practiced dance of good versus evil.
I’d been here so many times before, it was like a routine that I knew all the steps to. Only this time, when I fought I had more to protect. The Crown was mine to hold onto this time, the Citadel my home that I would fight to keep and my babies… I would do anything to protect my little nuggets that weren’t even born yet.
I also had a deep well of Magic that extended into three other Immortals. We were limitless in our capabilities and even more so when we were together.
Kiran and I fought back to back, our Magic slicing through the air like a sharp blade with the force of a thousand winds. We worked as a seamless unit of power and grace.
Kiran’s once-gray Magic combined with my once-royal blue energy and merged into this wispy navy blue hue that had quickly become my favorite of all the colors. Because I was part Titan, I could see the different colors of Magic flash around me as we fought against each other. My friends- the good guys- had a myriad of colors that lit up the room like a color storm of lightning. I watched Olivia’s Magic strike bright white into the air around her and it was the first moment that I actually believed she could be the true Immortal Terletov claimed she was. Her Magic was pure, despite Terletov’s wicked way of turning her. An eternal creature, like Kiran and me, like Avalon and Amelia, I wondered if she was able to grasp the concept better than the four of us. We still struggled with the overwhelming idea. And now we wouldn’t be alone.
I was more in favor of her relationship with Jericho than ever.
And as he stormed into the room with impeccable timing and a reserve of more men to fight for our cause, I realized that I didn’t have to worry anymore if they would work out or not. Jericho and Olivia were as sealed as they could be before the final consummation of their relationship.
Yay!
Definitely distracted, I received a blast of Magic to my shoulder. The hit of sickly green energy knocked me off balance and I bumped into Kiran behind me. His hand shot out and grabbed my hip to steady me.
Pay attention. Avalon growled inside my head.
It’s Jericho and Olivia! I squealed at him. They love each other!
I felt him audibly sigh as he took the Magic of an unsuspecting henchman that had been building his energy in order to strike out at Sebastian from behind. Would you focus? You can throw them a party later, but I kind of need you alive in order to do that.
I snorted. He knew I’d be alive no matter what. What a silly thing to say.
With the addition of Jericho and his team we were able to take over the room easily.
Kiran saw this before I did and addressed his cousin, “Bastian, what’s the rest of the Castle like?”
“We freed what Guards we could.
