She sank lifelessly to the ground, Flavian had already disappeared. No… My heart that beat only for her froze, and I was no longer aware of my surroundings.
Suddenly, the ground beneath me trembled from my dark, raging magic. A gust of wind destroyed trees and my fire burned the earth.
I fell to the ground beside her, and my fingers touched her ice-cold skin.
“Please don’t leave me,” I screamed as I violently shook her shoulders, hoping she would wake up. “I need you, please, we didn’t have time.” Bitter tears ran down my cheeks.
All five lifetimes, we hadn’t had a chance to love each other and now I had to say goodbye once again.
She had to listen to all those nasty comments, had to believe them.
The last words she heard out of my mouth were that I didn’t want her. On my soul, I did, I wanted her so badly. In all these years, I could never tell her what I really felt, could never lay my heart at her feet.
