THE CATALYST

Chapter 20

Ava's P.O.V

"Princess don't be mad you're less pretty when you are mad besides you put that guy to his place.." Eunice tells me and I smile at her."hey you don't always have to call me princess Eunice I've told you to call me Ava.You know you're like a sister to me and my only friend." I tell her as she helps me comb my hair." I only call you that when you are mad...So Ava what do you think of Braxton,you two make a good match..I see the way you look at him do you like him?" she asks me catching me off guard."well he's good besides I can't say I like him he pisses me off everytime I just want to beat his ass whenever I see him! I bet it would be fun to do that don't you think." we laugh again.

I can't get him off my mind though I touch my lips as I think of what happened before the banquet . There is something about Braxton that pulls me to him I just want to be close to him.Whenever he is close I feel like there is something that is struggling to break free from inside."By the way Eunice do you think I can find that man or do you think he has left already?" ,,,"I don't know but I had he was takeb away by that man ,,Braxton's right hand man." ...I know I should not but I just have to see this man's face and make he give me the answers I'm looking for.I don't get why they say I'm a prophesy I know nothing about .I walk through the halls and I know he's most likely kept in the dungeon.I catch a sweet scent ,,smell of ... I don't know what it smells like honestly but its intoxicating and it draws me towards thar direction but I smell blood too a lot of it.I draw my sword walking cautiously listening to any sound.My hearing and sense of smell have increased immensly,I can even hear heartbeats from a far ,,strange right?.I move closer that is when I see him,tired up in what looks like a cross or something like that all bloody ,beaten and blue

." So tell me young man what is your name again?"I hear Braxton's voice ,,"my...my..name is Felix your highness.. please forgive me I did not intend to disrespect her please....Please.."the guy statters ,"you say you did not intend Felix and yet you called her cursed ,," so this is what it is about, he's punishing him already I must say I'm moved, I expected my uncle or my father to do the punushing but him...no."Now what do we do with you Felix ,,no one disrepects my queen and goes unpunished,you have a nice neck too bad it won't be holding that empty head of..." I push the doors just on time before he sinks his fangs into his neck."you will do no such thing and I'm certainly no queen of yours either!" I shout at him walking into the room."Can't you smell his fear,he's scared enough that he's pissed his pants already and you still want to drain his blood, I didn't know you had such poor choices when it comes to what you feed on!" ,,I tell him walking around the tied man and he just looks at me with a smug on his face.I will definitely wipe that smug ofd his face one day." I was not aware you can smell human emotions kitten" he says chuckling and now I'm confused how did I do that."so Felix you said I was a prophesy ,, tell what the prophesy is,what it says and what it means.." I turn back to him and he's more scared.."I swear I don't know anything...ab..about it I just heard people whispering about it..."

This pank has the guts to insult me and lie to me also,,now I'm mad I feel like chocking him to death with my own hands.Suddenly he's struggling to breath holding his neck like he is being choked or something and then his neck snaps,,just like that! "It seems someone is getting better you just strangled a man using your mind,,"Braxton whispers into my ears softly."what do you mean by that?" I ask him..."it means that you are breaking kitten,," He whispers again this time closer that I feel his hot breath on my neck making me feel all hazy,,a soft kiss lands on my neck,,then to my shoulders I want to stop him but I can't,,I want more I want everything.He turns me around and the next thing I know is that I'm lying on a bed his hand wondering all over my body lips not leaving mine and I moan.He suddenly gets up and walks away from me leaving me cold and empty.I look around to find myself back in my room well I woudn't question how we got here."It seems the kitten wants more..."he say walking towards me with wine in his hands.."so tell me kitten do you like it when I kiss you like that? you can have more all you need to do is ask and I will fulfill all your fantasies..."he says caressing my face and I lean into his touch craving for more.He gets up and kisses my forehead softly,,"sleep kitten we have a long journey tomorrow.." he walks out leaving me all heated up.
