Death & Dreams Book 1

In the desert, that's 101 degrees right now, I watch Matt and the others cough and groan in pain from being forced to blink here, but I didn't care.

If they wanted to try and hurt MY Neve Bianco just because she was human...than I'll show them what will happened to them when you try to.

I didn't care if they are my friends I will kill for her.

I will be her Dark Knight like I promised her.

Matt was the first to stand up after his coughing fit but I sent him back on the ground with a punch in the gut.

He was on his knees in front of me with his head down and arms around his stomach, when he started to laugh, "You won't kill me"

"How much you want to bet?" my voice sounded demonic, cold, deep, and calm. There was no anger in it nor was there any yelling.

I was calm and pissed off all at the same time.

Matt was going to say something else until he looked up and saw my eyes and he turned pale.

"Have something to say Matt?"

He stayed quiet and just stared at me in horror which just made me glare at him annoyed.

"What Matt don't have the balls to say what you want now that you're face to face with the one to bring death to everyone on earth, make heaven fall from the sky, and free Hell from under the earth's crust?"

He still stared at my red eyes but now the beast is out, he was staring at eyes with no pupils.

"Come on Matt let's hear what you have to say."

He stood up slowly and took a step back. His fear put a small smirk on my face until he opened his mouth.

"What's so special about her? She's just a sick human girl"

The temperature drops a few degrees but no one notices.

I shug and said, "She's pretty"

Matt looked furious, "pretty?! You would risk your life and ours just because she's pretty!"

It wasn't because she was pretty but because she has the purest soul I've ever seen, she has a heart of gold; she makes me think that I have a heart beat that pounds around her or that it warms when I think of her.

I know that she will be the only one for me, I don't know why yet but I will, so to answer Matt, I looked in his eyes and said "yes"

He starts to laugh again.

"What's so funny Matt?"

He stops and says, "I lose the love of my life and I get criticized for loving a grim by everyone yet you're playing house with a human, this by the way is forbidden. It's hilarious that you don't even love the girl, yet you're willing to have us all killed because 'she's pretty'."

I stay silent and he laughs again and says, "Well since you're not in love with her then maybe I should kill her, that way-"

He didn't finish his sentence because my hand was wrapped around his throat and lifted him in the air.

This time when the temperature dropped they had no choice but to notice because the ground became covered in ice and snow fell around us in a blizzard.

The Sahara Desert, the hottest place in the world has just become the coldest because this fuck face wanted to kill my Neve Bianco.

He wanted to kill my princess.

He wanted to harm my innocent heart.

He wanted to touch what is mine.

Squeezing his throat even tighter than before, this made his face turn blue and purple, some of his blood cells were popped from the lack of oxygen.

My hands were bleeding from him scratching at my hands.

My hold was slowly getting tighter instead of looser and right as I was about to crush his wind pipe, I felt someone try to control the demon inside me.

Only two people had the power to do that and I doubt that he would come from heaven to stop me, so that left one person.

"What are you doing here Jeff?"

Out the corner of my eye, I saw that the Devil was wearing a coat and a scarf like he was cold.

"I'm here to see why you are freezing hell?"

I shrug saying, "cause I feel like it"

Jeff sighed and walked over to be behind Mack, then put his hand on the back of Mack's head with his fingers spread apart.

Once his hand is on his head, Mack's mouth opens in a silent scream, and I knew that Jeff was watching his memories.

It took a minute or two for him to see all of them but once he was done he sighed again and step away from us.

"Thantos, if I give three of the most dangerous demon animals to you for them to protect the girl will that stop all of this nonsense?"

I stayed quiet thinking about it, I can't always be there for her so it won't hurt to have something protecting Fantasy.

I nodded my head as my answer

"Good, they'll be with her in two days time. Now can you unfreeze Hell?"

I didn't say anything but once I blinked the temperature went back to 101, the snow and ice either melted quickly or vanished all together. I knew that Hell was back to normal just like the desert.

"Thank you. Oh and before you kill Matt, you might want to think about letting him go."

Looking at Jeff, bored, "Whys that?"

"because later on he will be one of the best people to protect your girl."

I narrowed my eyes at him, "and how's that?"

"Let him go and you'll see"

I clinched my jaw and dropped Mack.

Matt was coughing and sucking in air for a good five minutes

"Now Matt," Jeff crouched beside him, "I'm going to let you see your lover and I will ask her the questions that everyone wants the answers to. Just know that you cannot talk to her and she will not be able to lie to me. But no matter what she says you are to never harm Fantasy Cruz or you will have to deal with me is that understood?"

He nodded his head eagerly and with hope in his eyes

"Very well," Jeff stood up and started to summon the girl, "Brittany Black come forward and speak to the living once more"

A shadow came from behind Jeff and started to take the form of a girl. The girl has shoulder length hair with light colored eyes.

Jeff looked towards the shadow and asked pointing at Mack, "Were you his lover?"

"yes" Her voice was quiet yet a high pitch

"did you plan to kill him?"

"No"

Mack looked happy and smug as he looked at everyone

"But you did plan something?"

"yes"

Mack snapped his head back to the shadow

"What did you plan to do?"

"I planned to have him expelled from school and the easiest way was to sleep with him since him and his brother never fought back. But I ended up liking the sex with him so I decided to just use him as my toy."

"and did you love him at all?"

There was so much hope and love in his eyes, even after what she said, that you hoped she said yes but instead she said the opposite.

"No, I would never love something that stupid or gullible" she said it with boredom and disgust in her voice

Mack's face was blank but his eyes showed his pain and betrayal, they showed how his heart broke piece by piece until there was nothing left.

He stood up and blinked back to Seb's place without saying anything.

Jeff shook his head and said, "Brittany Black leave my presences" the shadow vanished.

No one knew what to say, so everyone was silent lost in our thoughts, until Seb told Henry to go and check on his brother.

Henry nodded and did what he was told.

I looked at Jeff and said, "I'll see you in two days."

He nodded and I blinked back to Fantasy's room.

There wasn't anyone in the room, except for Fantasy who was picking at the blanket with a worried expression on her face.

"What's wrong Neve Bianco?"

At my demonic voice, she looked up, smiled and held her arms out towards me.

I stayed where I was for a few seconds to see if she would flinch when she looked at my red eyes with no pupils but she just kept smiling with her arms wide open for me.

I walked towards her and grabbed hold of her hands while sitting on her bed beside her.

Her smile got bigger then she looked down at our hands and her smile turned into a frown.

I looked down and saw the scratches and blood on my hand.

Fantasy let go of one of my hands and lifted my head up so I could look in her eyes.

She searched my face for something with worried eyes and whispered, "Hurt?"

I shook my head lightly and whispered back, "No I'm fine Neve Bianco"

She stayed silent for a few seconds longer then crawled onto my lap and put her head on my shoulder.

I leaned back on the bed with her on my chest and just enjoy the peace that I felt with Fantasy.
