Marked by the Devil Chapter 33
Lexa sharply turned to Elliot like he had committed a great sin. She stood up and stepped back, fearing for the worst to come."P-poisoned? By-by who?!"Elliot held her hand and placed her on the bench with minimal struggle. He noticed that when she was worried or her thoughts were scattered, she couldn't use her powers to the maximum.That explained how the nurses could move her away so easily. She still needed training.'Calm down, Alexa.'"Who would want to poison her?! Why?! She's already dying and yet she was... I'm gonna sue this hospital!" She turned her focus to the passing nurses and doctors, as well as the hospital itself. "How did my mother get poisoned?! Someone answer me!"Elliot had to drag her out of the hallway and into an unused room in the hospital but that didn't stop her from continually screaming. He placed her hand over her mouth and wouldn't stop unless she promised to.The colour of her green eyes had turned black. For a devil, he was terrified to see that. But

He sat beside her on the sick bed, watching her breath slowly and waiting for her eyes to pop open. He had been there for an hour, waiting for any sign of recovery from her.He was so patient and for the first time, Lot waited with him without throwing any tantrums at him. He held her hand and kept looking at her fingers. He always saw something new when he looked harder.He felt her blood flowing but yet no response from her. He tried talking to her and begging her to wake up but nothing.Yes, he was frustrated but he didn't find it in his heart to leave her. He felt terrible about everything. Kimberly was dead and Lexa was broken because of it.Elliot too was also broken but he knew that the bond they shared was stronger than the bond he could ever have with Kim.He sighed and bent his head, placing her hand on his forehead... waiting for something."Any response from her, Mr Vile?"Elliot didn't know when he entered but he didn't seem surprised. "Nothing." He rose his head. "She's

"She told him to stay away from him." I wanted to stand and run away but I was stuck to the chair and I couldn't budge either it or me. We were rooted in that position."I will no more listen to this nonsense! Release me!""I warned you about your mother's life being in danger."I calmed down and gazed at her in realization. "It was you?""But you didn't heed my words and he didn't listen to your mother." I was afraid of the next words she would say. "So he killed her."Everything she said was making sense but I couldn't find it in my heart to believe it. Elliot could never do such a thing. "He wouldn't...""That's why he tried to mate you early. When he couldn't, he killed her. He was afraid she would tell you and you would stay away from him. He even told the doctor not to investigate the matter. He doesn't love you, Lexa. It's an obsession!""No!" I screamed in terror."Question him! Find out for yourself!""No!" I continued screaming."When you've come to know the truth, you know

They were so many. Lexa had no idea what he used them all for."My Dragon mamba poison is here. It's intact."'That's the poison that killed my mother?' Lexa thought.She became sober on thinking about her mother again. The least she could do was give the worst punishment to the culprit.Lexa didn't know what she would do to Elliot if she found out he was behind it, whether it was him or Lot. They went to a part of the room, walking around all the tables that carried weapons.At the very end, on a line that stood just as tall as them. Elliot used his eyes to search for it. Lexa watched him while he did, since she couldn't tell which was which.After Elliot searched the whole line. He went back to the beginning, looking confused. He searched again and there was worry written on his face.That also worried Lexa. She hoped it was not what she was thinking."What is it, Elliot?"He rubbed his forehead, checking the bottles of poison again."It...it isn't here."Lexa's brain went on pause

Rica's POVI spinned the revolving chair I was sitting on. It twirled me 360 degree round a single spot with a big unending smile on my face as it continued to twirl me. Then I immediately stopped it.I looked towards a mirror and I could see my face...ageing. My end was near. Any normal witch would worry about it and begin to search for longer days but not me. I didn't care. I didn't care if I died today because my mission was complete.Almost complete. I had a last thing to do before I could tag my mission as 'completed'. I stood up from the chair and looked around me. I was in a destroyed uncompleted building that was located in the outskirts of Olia.Everywhere was dark but my crystal ball gave out bright blue light that brightened everywhere. The doors of the building were old and rotten, and they dangled from their hinges like they were only attached to it by a bare string.The floors of the building were covered with rusted nails and bolts, dead leaves, infested planks of wood

Lexa's POVIt was hard to sleep at night when he was not by my side. I felt vulnerable when his hands didn't trap my waists like he loved to do. I couldn't feel his cold pale skin on mine and I was feeling immense heat where I was silently sitting.Though we were high in the sky, which meant the environment should be cooler as science had proved but I felt so hot inside. I wanted to pull my clothes off my miserable body.I looked around me and realized that I was the only one feeling that way. That's when I realized that the heat was coming from inside me. On the speakers, a female voice nnounced something that I really wasn't listening to.'Ladies and gentlemen, Bandasun Airlines welcomes you to Paris. The local time is 3:pm. For your safety and the safety of those around you, please remain seated with your seat belt fastened and keep the aisle clear until we are parked at the gate. Thank you.'Why wasn't I excited to be here? I always wanted to visit Paris. Everyone did.Someone pla

Elliot's POVI was not patient but I could wait till the next day before visiting my kingdom. It had been a long time since I had seen it, but I remember it vividly. It was recently that I realised how much freedom I had given Andras on my throne.I chose him because I trusted him, but even the best demons can't be relied on. I felt like a fool. My love for Lexa had taken over me. I couldn't concentrate on my kingly duties. But I didn't regret falling for her. I would have my way and I would have both Alexa and my crown.I was picking out clothes when a knock announced itself on the door. I didn't want to answer it but it was the scent of the senior maid so I had to."Enter!" She hesitated but entered my room. She came empty handed and not in her uniform, so it gave me the idea that she wasn't here to serve me gin or give me updates on the masnion. "Not now, Nora. You can leave."She didn't. She stood right there in her position, watching me from the distance.I ignored her and picked

Lexa's POVWe had been served our dishes. I was thankful I chose what I chose because when I saw my food, my lost appetite returned.Drinks were served with our food and we started to dig into it."It's been a while , Lexa," she said, eating to her heart's desire.I smirked. "Just a few months... But you changed so much."She smiled. "That's what money can do."She fluttered her eyelashes and moved her food slightly away then gave me a sneaky smile. To say the truth, I was confused at the sudden change in her position. Her movements didn't give me an idea of what she wanted to do until she talked."How are you and Elliot?" Wendy's smile grew wider and my smile grew lower. Even though she talked more now, she was still observant as she always had been. She noticed my dull face. "What's wrong? Did-did something happen?" It was hard to stop the tears from coming out so I used my cold palms to cover my hot teary eyes. I took a deep breath and cleared them. "You had a fight? Is everything
