Vierunddreißigstes Kapitel (Chapter 34)

"Guard! Guard!" The alarm goes off. 

Anubis and Set clear the way for me. The Moonstone and the Sundrop were guarded in the lowest part of the castle. There were a lot of guards, fortunately these guards are... pathetic. Who trained these guys? They're useless. 

More guards charge. I roll my eyes. Anubis and Set jump forward. I watch as they plow through. I slash my sword with multiple guards. This is one step in my death. I officially will betray everyone. Not like I have a choice though. I never did. 

I plow through multiple guards. I come to the doors. I let out a breath. It's hard to keep the tears back. My soul is shattering. My soul belongs to Valentino. When I signed the contract, he ripped my soul out. I'm not even sure if I'm really human anymore. I sure don't feel like I'm human. 

I push open the doors. I see the Moonstone and the Sundrop. Entangled into each other. I suck in a breath. I walk forward. My sword draws back into my glove collar. I walk forward. The stench of betrayal is all over me. I can't even think about their faces. Anubis and Set wait for me. I reach for the stone.

"Hector stop!" Rapunzel yells.

I turn to her. Guards and the rest of the brotherhood.

"Hector please I am speaking to you not just as a king, but as your friend. Please come back." King Edmund says.

"I... I don't have a choice." I say. 

"Hector, you're still our brother." Quirin says.

I grip my head.

"Hector, please-" Adira starts.

"Don't you get that I belong to Val?!" I yell. 

Adira draws back. I let out an angry breath.

"Why do you think I joined the brotherhood? I didn't do it out of noble intentions. I only did it because Val told me to! I've always belong to him!" I yell.

"Hector, you don't have to follow his orders." King Edmund walks forward.

"Yes, I do." I hiss.

I grab the Moonstone and I throw the smoke bomb. 

"He's gone." Rapunzel says.
