Lexie couldn't even see her target, it was very dark to the point where she felt that she was not even in that small room anymore . Fresh chapters posted on novel•fire.net
Yet, she was certain that she was not alone, she didn't even turn around to face the person behind her .
At that moment she realized that the person behind her was Isiah Duncan.
Now, that she was thinking about it, she had the same type of energy back then when Isiah was strangling her .
Now that she was locked in this area with him she realized that any wrong move from her would cost her her life .
Tears fell from her eyes because she didn't get revenge on her mom and sisters .
"Do you want to kill me this bad? I don't mind that, just …just …let me kill him, I will never forgive myself if I died before doing that "
Her voice was cracking with each word she was saying, she felt like her whole existence was meant for this moment and Isiah was taking it away from her .
" Quiet, you stupid girl " he added.
At that moment Lexie turned around and looked at him, he looked way worse than she saw him just a few minutes before .
" Why are you acting ? Why are you looking ? Is there something wrong with you? "
Isiah closed his eyes as if he was forcing his lungs to work, he exhaled heavily then said very slowly and quietly:" I will kill you if you lay hand on him "
Lexie looked at Isiah with confusion because he was not the type to care about anyone which was so hard to understand.
" Him ? Are you protecting him ? The leader of district 2 ? Do you have any idea of what he did to us ? To our district ? This man is a lunatic who killed half of our people, he is a devil who …who …"
Lexie started to breathe fastly as if she was suffocating, she couldn't even say more words or try to collect more information about his intentions, she dropped her bow on the floor , while still holding the arrow in her left hand.
She was not in a clear sense of mind, she was wandering with her eyes all around her not able to see anything.
Isiah noticed that she was not acting normal so he said at that moment:" I am going to kill all of you, eventually"
Isiah was very surprised by the way she reacted to that statement, she didn't even tremble as he was saying that he is going to kill all of them, her included, yet all she wanted was to kill that man .
" Obviously, " He added with a cold look in his eyes .
" I don't think that killing this man means anything to you, you want to kill him just like you want to kill everyone but me , I need to kill him, I need to do this , let me kill him when the time comes, let me kill him before you kill me "
Isiah was not even that interested in both of them but somehow he was curious to see how she was going to kill him if given the opportunity .
" If you lay hand on him, I won't hesitate to speed up your death "
Lexie was still devastated , yet when the way Isiah acted to save this person she knew that he would kill her before even moving to kill Yogev.
' I can't just die before killing him, this is the last thing I could do for my family '
Lexie was choking with her tears and her unspoken words, so she looked Isiah in the eyes and then nodded her head positively.
' I really wish to know what is in his head, because I can't even get close to what he is thinking, not in the past, and certainly not now, it feels like he is not a person at all, the energy around him is very scary, he doesn't like anyone, he can't even force himself to talk to someone which is very dangerous.
Isiah is just walking around while creating his own rules, killing is nothing to him and for that, I don't think that any of us is capable of stopping him '
Isiah's cold eyes were fixated on her scared eyes when she started to see the light around her .
When Lexie realized that she was still in that room she looked at him again for a long time .
' Is it his magical power or his psychological one? He convinced me that there was no one around , or maybe I was too scared to focus on something else? no , no , in just seconds he made me feel that way without even attacking me '
" Move away, " Isiah said when she kept looking at him that way.
Isiah got past her while walking toward both Yogev and Heigl that was fully prepared to attack Lexie.
" The way out, " Isiah said firmly while forcing him indirectly to look at him .
Heigl just moved back then said:" There are some major problems about that"
Heigl didn't notice that he was moving backward until he impacted Yogev's body .
Yogev just stopped him and then got forward to stand in front of him, Isiah smirked while saying:" Problem ? "
Yogev looked at Lexie fast then went back to focus on Isiah who was acting very edgy this time .
" What do you mean by problems? "
"They broke everything when they left, and the fun part is, someone who is staying with us in this dommed region did this, how pathetic!" Yogev answered instead of Heigl.
Heigl and Lexie were the same age, and they were older than Isiah yet he looked much older and stronger than them, because of his physical appearance and also because of Emperium's divine energy.
" Do I look like I care about what you are saying? ``Isiah said to Yogev.
Isiah only left Yogev alive because of Heigl's condition, and now killing him was very tempting.
" Don't kill us, don't hurt us, I will, I will make it work, " Heigl said with a scared look on his face .
Yogev turned around and looked at him very surprised because the way he was acting was not normal at all, he usually acted very strong and tough, Heigl was not scared of anything yet when Isiah Duncan came he turned into a scared cut suddenly .
Yogev said immediately to him :" You should get your shi***t together, acting is just too bothering for me, you should know "
Heigl ignored him completely and then said:" It will take time, I have some resources that might help but I am not sure if I could do this "
" Do you think I care about your insecurities, you know so much, the way you look at things is not normal and I just saw you two hours ago, you hide things, and I will know them, or I will kill you " Isiah replied with his cold dark eyes fixed on him.
Isiah was very pressed by his body state and also by the time he had left during this triple full moons, he was now feeling very angry because after he got his hopes very high now he had to face this delay .
Ciel stayed where he was with Eijar , Lexie didn't move a single step from where he left her.
Yogev was the only one trying to work things out with Isiah, he tried to talk him through this like a normal person, ignoring the fact that he was not normal at all .
" We should just take things slow, you don't need to threaten us because it will be your loss, you need us, so you have to treat us right "
Heigl was so pissed by what Yogev said and immediately he stood in front of him while cursing at him .
" What the fu***k is wrong with you? Are you planning to get us killed or what, you useless thing " Heigl shouted at that moment
Isiah looked at Heigl for a whole minute then said:" I only need you, skinny one, I don't need him "
Heigl walked towards Isiah for the first time and then said while trying to collect his courage :" Please talk to me, he , he is not in his right mind "
Isiah smirked then collected a dark ball of his dark energy and pointed it toward Yogev, he intentionally missed hitting him then said:" This fire is nothing like you've ever seen, it will not stop burning, and I will just enjoy the fact that you will keep burning with it for a long time, don't talk to me again, or I will kill you both "
Everyone was so stunned by the huge power that Isiah was using.
' Yeah, this power, this type of power doesn't exist in our whole region, he is not a normal mage, after all , he is a Duncan for a reason' Lexie thought as she turned around while trying to get outside that room .
Everything was messed up and she couldn't handle being next to all of them while she was not allowed to do anything .
"Where are you going ? " Isiah shouted the moment Lexie stepped outside that room.
