Chapter 583: Amber
Darrien
"You are calling ,’’ Amber bellows calmly. It is late at night and I am doing this even though I have a strong mind that this is a mistake. Amber is the only witch that can help us right now and if I don’t ask her for this, we might be here for God knows how long.
"Yes, is it too late to talk?’’ I ask her.
I can almost picture her smiling "It is never too late for your call Darrien,’’ she whispers into the phone.
Amber knows that there is not even a slight chance for us. Our story ended a long ti ago and it is one that I never want to even think about. I don’t even see myself on that path.
"I need your help and I know that this won’t be the first ti but this ti, no one else can help
with this. You can refuse if you want to but I hope you don’t."
"Do you ever miss the past?’’ she asks completely ignoring my request.
I don’t miss the past, I am in a place in my life that is perfect. I have never been happier. so, I can’t miss the past especially since I don’t even rember if there were any good tis.
My relationship with Amber only left bad mories. I did things that I don’t even want to rember, so I don’t know which past she is talking about. All I know is that Amber is a very powerful witch and she might just be the only one that can help get rid of Analise--or at least figure out how we can kill her.
"I don’t think about the past and I hope you don’t too.’’ I manage, I don’t want to sound too cold but from the strain in my voice, I am sure that is how I co across.
"The past is all I think about."
I take a deep breath as Rex watches
calmly. He has no clue on what I am doing but he is also desperate for a solution. He seems to want this to end as much as I do.
"Why did you call?’’ she adds.
"Because I need your help.’’
"With your mate?"
I shake my head even though she can’t see . Jabi is safe in the community. I don’t have to worry about him for now.
"Sothing else. I have a question. One that I know you are the only one that can help
answer."
"What do you want to know,’’ she mutters with a slow sigh.
"How do you kill soone that can’t die?"
"That is such a vast question. There are so many people in this world that harness immortality." she pauses. I hear shuffling in the background "Can I find you?" she adds.
I know what she ans by this. Amber has this ability, to co wherever soone is, as long as she has sothing of that person. This leaves
to wonder what she has of mine.
I know the right thing to do right now is to let her co, for the good of us all. I want to go back ho and I don’t trust Blue’s abilities, not because he is not good enough, or strong enough but just because this is an emotional fight for him. His enemy right now is his mother and even if he is making it seem like he doesn’t give a shit about her, I know that it must hurt him to so point and I don’t want the weakness of the connection to affect this fight.
"Yes, you can,’’ I state finally.
I know how this works, there were tis when we were apart, tis when I really wanted to see her. tis when she wanted to see . I feel her energy before she appears in a hologram. it feels like our two worlds co together, and I am grateful that Rex is here with . I don’t want to be alone with her. I don’t want her to even get the wrong idea in this situation.
This is a favor, one that I hope to repay her when she needs it.
She is dressed in a long white lace dress over her ankles. Her hair is down and long, and black. The beauty she carries will never be forgotten. I watch her as she looks around in confusion. I know she is wondering where I am, wondering what is happening but this is too long to explain to her.
"What is happening,’’ she walks over to
as I stand up to match her level. Rex stands up too and I see the fear in his eyes. He is confused and maybe I should have explained things to him before she showed up.
"It’s a long story,’’ I manage.
No ti to explain it all.
Her eyes dart around the shed, the confusion sprawled all over her face. She is wondering but I can tell she is also waiting for
to explain.
"This person that can’t die, who is she?’’ she asks.
"A witch, just like you."
She turns to
imdiately with raised brows "Is this a coven? are you in a coven?’’
Amber is and never has been part of a coven. Just like Blue’s father, she is a lone witch. One that preferred the solace. She never belonged in a community with people. I think that is what made her the way she is today. Having a family is sothing that I have always had. I might have been on my own most of the ti but they were always there, I could always rely on my family.
She has no one and maybe that is why she is who she is.
"Yes.’’
"Why are you here Darrien. Who are you trying to kill?"
I take a deep breath as I mouth out Blue’s mother’s na. Her eyes open wide just as the na escapes my lips and I see the recognition in them.
"I want to kill Analise."
