Chapter 220: The Enemy {2}
"I have a demigod in my hands, such blessing... and power" she mused, smooching the child but he remained crying.
Vlad frowned. "Where are you going with this?"
"This child will be a blessing to my people, we need not serve Vampires anymore. He will be our King and lead us to liberation"
"You fool! He is the gateway to the Holy Library, a tethered soul chosen by Basker himself, he is more than a blessing, he’s my salvation!"
"I will keep him, the demigod is mine"
"Well if you wanted a demigod you should have taken the other two, fool!"
She gasped because in a blur he was before her. "Your magic needn’t sustain me any longer, I have ALL I need"
Her eyes widened in realization but it was too late. One of the black tree branches impaled her against one of its barks, through her chest.
Vlad ticks his tongue grabbing the child. "Pity... I was fond of you" he walked away as her remaining life flashed before her eyes, she was still breathing but barely moving, her very life felt her slowly leaving her and it couldn’t be more painful.
"Now now child, enough with the cries, grandfather is here" he took off the blanket and laid the child on the cold stone. "You know I have waited thousands of years just to see you, you’re in this world thanks to me. With you, I shall regain my youth and lead the Vampires into revolution" He smirks. "Now open lead thy way, son"
"Get away from my son!" a threatening tone came forth and Vlad smiled broadly.
