Over
Edward kissed my neck, as we stood at the open window. The cold breeze battered at me, and combined with Edwards's body temperature I should have been freezing… but I wasn't. I was numb. And relieved. And shaking. Because it was all over. No more evil goddesses trying to kill me. Just me and Edward, as we should be. To be honest, I'd had enough drama.
However, I still needed to know…
"How did you do it?" I asked him.
And he told me.
He'd concentrated very hard, and had managed to access some of Lucia's thoughts. She knew that something wasn't right, and was about to control him. But he beat her to it, and pretended to be under her control before she actually did it.
Luckily, Lucia – vain as she was – had not noticed, so she directed him to wait in a room across the hall. Before forcing Rosalie, – unfortunately, that action was successful – to divulge the plan, and sending her to the woods to meet me.
After Rosalie – against her will – had locked me in the room, Lucia called to Edward to come in. He heard through the walls – vampire hearing! – and assessed Rosalie's thoughts. Thus realising the situation. Edward came into the room and started kissing Lucia, before snapping her head off, setting fire to her - he'd found some matches in the next room - and chucking her body out the open window.
It was strange, but I felt no remorse, no horror at Edward's actions. He wrapped his arms around my waist, and we watched the beautiful, burning creature hurtle to the snowy ground. Her head had rolled away, and I could see her perfect lips opening and closing, like a fish out of water. Her black hair, matted and strewn around the screaming face. Flying through the air.
As she hit the ground, I worried that the snow would put out the flames. But strangely, they didn't. The fire had caught her clothes, and her body would soon be ashes.
"It seems that nature is on our side, for once." Edward said dryly in my ear.
"Nature has always been on my side," I whispered, pressing a kiss into his palm, "It brought you to me."
He laughed at that, and kissed the top of my head.
"I have another query." I said.
"Please, go right ahead."
"Well, the only reason Lucia was blackmailing me, was to have you. Right?"
"Yes."
"Then why didn't she just force me to leave? Then there'd be less risk."
Edward gasped. It took a lot to surprise him.
"That's true. Maybe… perhaps…."
"What?"
"Well, maybe you were an exception to her powers too. Like you are to mine."
"Hmmm… maybe. It's just, that the first time I saw her… I was kind of affected. I thought she was the most beautiful thing in the world."
"But you snapped out of it… hmmm…we must go to Carlisle." Edward was excited now, and began to pull on my hand.
"Wait, we'll go in a minute." I said, and glanced down at the ground.
Lucia – if it was possible – was still burning, and still thrashing around. I felt rather sad now. And revolted. But I couldn't look away, as the fire ate at her.
Edward nodded, seeming to understand. He came back to stand behind me, wrapping his cold arms tenderly around my waist…
As we watched Lucia die.
The End.
