Truth
"How dare you assume I'm part of the land where we could govern." He scorns Jenx, "I'm an orphan from the slums."
"Exactly our point." I say, "How would Jack have human blood?"
I look over to Jack who seems slightly taken aback by this claim.
"Dalaris Overland is his mother. I mean- it makes sense since we all know his mother was a whore." He explains, "SPX. A rare gene. Amon the Reckless, the one who brought destruction to humans for rejecting him, was half human, and very powerful."
Jenx narrows her eyes, and I look to her in surprise.
"You knew?" I ask, feeling betrayed by her.
"Yes." She tells me bluntly, "I went along with your story because I didn't want Jack to know. It was also an attempt to suggest that he is part human."
I start to feel an anger burning inside of me, which I direct Jaspar, "Dalaris Overland was a demon."
Jaspar gave a wide smirk, "That could be true. Dalaris could be part human or full demon. Or Dalaris hooked up with one of her human clients."
Jack looks at the floor in total shock. He never bothered to look up his family heritage, due to his mother's reputation, and now he has to deal with it.
"It explains why you were such a sook as a child." Jaspar insults him.
"So what?!" I shout at Jaspar, "You can't always blame genetics on personality. Are you saying all demons must be tough and wreak havoc?"
"Demons are evolved fallen angels. We didn't survive Hell from being weak. We were born to be powerful. We can't afford to feel." He tells me.
"Then you're weak." I say to him, "Consumed in feelings of anger and the strong desire to be recognised. You remind me more of a child than Jack."
Jaspar cracks from his pleasure of mentally torturing Jack and his face transitions into an irritated expression towards me. Like he's done with his game and I ruined it.
"Well here's news for you Jaspar ... your father is nowhere to be found." I tell him with confidence.
"Enough." Jaspar says with a soft but aggressive tone, "I'm going to be crowned. So shut your mouth Angel."
I look at him with fear, he's finally cracked, he's had his moment to gloat about his superiority, now he'll make it official.
"Angel ... kill him." His says with no remorse, his eyes void of any sanity left within him.
I was chained to his orders and my body was a slave. The magic was so powerful that I felt so powerless, so useless ...
If I had a choice. I would probably of killed myself.
But no. I had to kill Jack.
Surges of my undiscovered powers appeared in my palm, the expected white radiant light from my energy powers were grey. They weren't a pure white because I was corrupted and used for evil purposes.
This energy was aimed at Jack, in which he attempted to shield himself with his remaining dark energy. He was already in such a weak state, and I was forced to watch it.
I fight what's possessing me, I try to break free of these chains. I though about how much I love Jack, how much I don't want to let him die, how I feel his pain, how grateful I am to him.
But the magic is too strong. But I regained my voice back, I was able to speak.
Tears run down my cheeks as my body remains a slave, I scream to Jack, "You have to kill me Jack! Jaspar cannot be King under any circumstance."
I keep fighting these puppeteer hands and I briefly pause, and the attacks against him stop. In the moment Jack looks at me, trying to sit up, his face covered in debris and wounds with one eyed closed and tells me, "Unforgivable." He mutters with a tear rolling down from his single eye, "Screw being King. If it means losing you."
My eyes widen in shock and I let my guard down and my whole body is under control again.
Jack lowers his shield and he attempts to exert his black flame energy but only a small light appears on the end of his finger. Like he's admitting defeat.
"Pause Angel." He orders me and I stay still, hovering in the sky.
Jaspar walks closer to Jack to examine him all weak. Then he speaks, "You and Amon the Reckless had flame energy. Both coincidentally a little bit of human, no other demon or witch or man can practice that sort of power. It's cheating."
Jack is too weak to react, he's on the verge of death and I can't do anything about it.
"I couldn't let the Angel have the pleasure of killing you." He says and holds out his hand and smoke slowly develops in his palm, "Personally, I'd love to see you surrender, but the only thing you've inherited from demons is our pride. So suffocation will have to do."
Jaspar grabs his hair aggressively and holds it up to dangle. As the smoke tries to enter Jack ...
... Jaspar falls to the hard ground.
Some purple and black cosmic energy hit him hard in the back.
I try to look for the source. And it's her with full pure black eyes.
Jenx.
"Who the hell uses an Angel in a duel?!" She exclaims in anger, "If you showed some decency I wouldn't have to become Queen."
