Chapter 280 Reunion2
Before Anne could ask what Hazel meant, she felt another strong wave of energy leaving the body of Hazel and she sat up abruptly. She closed her eyes and felt the dark energy filling the room.
“Isn’t it painful?” asked Anne with confusion when Hazel’s expressions did not change at all though her aura turned pitch black.
“Since when have I started feeling pain? Tsk tsk! Do you think this 400 year old witch is this weak?” Anne shook her head. She never let go of a single chance, showing her greatness.
But deep down she knew that it was because of lack of acknowledgement from her family and a look of disgust from her own clan had made her so strong willed and arrogant.
“You are only twenty years old for your information. So, it is okay to accept and inform me that you are in pain.” she touched the body of hazel gently as if a mere pressure would break her when hazel rolled her eyes.
“I am not made of glass. But if you are ready you can start the ritual. The core is here.” she held Anne’s hands and moved it towards her belly button and pressed it there.
Anne could feel the strong surge of energy there. She did not know but she was worried if she would be able to absorb all the energy of hazel since Bella was the strongest witch that ever existed..
Apart from her eyes and the dark energy that flew in her veins, other witches wanted to kill her because she had an uncontrollable amount of energy.
If used wrongly, she could burn the whole empire with just a few spells.
With that much energy she was a lethal weapon if fell in wrong hands and for witches, there would be no more enemy than other species.
If Bella would have chosen a witch as her lover, they might not have killed her but she chose a vampire as her lover that scared other witches and even created hatred in their hearts.
She closed her eyes and tried to get rid away of the thoughts of the past. She was scared, she would not deny it but even if she died while protecting Hazel, it would be worth it since the girl had already suffered a lot.
She would do anything to not let the past repeat itself. She felt the energy flowing into her body and her body started to burn.
As if lightning had struck her, and now its energy was flowing in her veins. It was more than she had expected.
Yet she did not stop the process. She was glad that Hazel’s eyes were closed too.
She gritted her teeth as she forced her body to extremes while she continued to absorb the energy coming out of Hazel’s body for long until she felt that Hazel could handle the rest of the energy.
When she finally let go, her whole body was burning and she felt like she was hotter than the molten lava.
She could breathe fire stronger than a dragon to let the energy out of her body.
“An!” Hazel’s eyes widened when she noticed the whole body of Anne had turned black like the bottom of a pot.
She had thought that Anne could handle it since she was able to seal so much energy in her body for more than two decades.
“You do not need to worry about me. I would be fine once I take all this energy out of my body. I need to leave.” Hazel nodded her head as she looked at her sister with worry but Anne just smiled and caressed Hazel’s cheeks before vanishing from there.
“Do not forget to scold Rafael for trying to kill me.” her voice echoed for a second and then the place turned dark and cold.
The bed she was sitting on earlier vanished and so did the other things in the room. Cobwebs and dust filled the floor and walls when she stood up.
Her eyes had turned normal again but this time she did not forget who she was in the past like before. Her eyes were staring at everything around her as if it was the first time she was looking at it.
As soon as she walked out of the palace, she heard the sound of shattering glass but nothing broke or fell on the ground.
As soon as the protection spell around her borke she noticed a lot of vampires around and frowned.
She did not remember any other vampire in the vicinity except Rafael and Diana. What was happening?
She was still trying to grasp the matter when she noticed all of them turned still and turned to look at her.
Hazel raised a brow as all of them ran to her as if she was their goddess and took a breath of relief.
“We have finally found you, my lady.” They bowed their heads and showed respect to her.
“Since when the vampires started to respect me and why were you looking for me at the fire…” she halted mid speech when she realized what was happening. Her eyes moved to the vampire who was running towards her from the other side.
All the vampires stood up in two parallel lines, leaving a clear path for Rafael to walk to her.
He swallowed when he reached closer. His deep eyes looked at her with such intensity that she could feel that burning sensation.
He had waited for her all this time. But even when she was so close to him, he did not fall in love with her and he did not feel her love for him.
Should she be delighted that he still waited for her or should she be dejected that he did not love hazel, she was now.
“Where in the world were you? I was looking for you everywhere.” he hugged her tightly and inhaled her scent to calm himself.
“Why? Who am I for you? Why are you waiting for me?”
