Episode 70
There is a reason that our kind is separate from yours and I believe it should stay that way. I swear as long as I am king, I will never let that happen.”
“I…I can’t…I…” My words wouldn’t come out right, and as heavy as I was breathing, I still didn’t feel like I was actually getting any air into my lungs. I’d just found out that the last eight years of my life had been a complete lie, and I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to do with that.
Calvin knelt down, helping me back up and he held up my hand, placing the envelope I hadn’t even realized I’d dropped, back in it. “You’re going home, Rachel.” He whispered sadly.
I looked up into his eyes. “I am home.” I whispered back hoarsely.
My words seemed to only make him feel worse, even though I thought he’d be happy. “You don’t belong here, Rachel.”
“I belong with you.” I said quickly, but he shook his head. “Why don’t you want me?” I asked weakly, in shock that he still was insisting I leave.
“No, you don’t.” He replied sadly. “I wish it true, but it’s not.” He shook the envelope. “Go home, Rachel.”
I burst with tears. “Home?” I asked and he nodded his head.
“Your mom, she’s fine, she is still living in the same house and everything.” He told me, tears running down his cheeks.
“She’ll be so happy to see you.” He smiled through them. “You’re going home, baby. You can have a real life, a full one.” His voice cracked as he pushed the envelope into my hand and started pushing me towards the car that was still waiting.
“No!” I screamed against his chest, grabbing him tightly. “I can’t leave you!” I cried, but he pulled me off of him.
“Rachel, please, you have to go…You have to, it’s where you belong.” He said waiving the driver of the car over.
“Calvin, please!” I begged, fighting with all of my strength.
He wouldn’t look down at me. “You want to know what would happen if you stayed here?” He asked. “Greer and Tessa are both dead, Rachel! I won’t stand by and let that happen to you! I love you so much, and I love you enough to let you go.” He said sadly, pulling me off of him again. “You’ve got to go.” He said as he shook, trying so hard not to look at my face.
I felt arms wrap around me from behind as a man started pulling me away from Calvin, towards the car while he watched, bringing his shaking hands up to his mouth to muffle his painful cries.
I bucked back hard against the man behind me and I got free from his grip, running to Calvin as he opened his arms for me, hugging me tightly to him, and kssing the top of my head over and over.
“I love you, Calvin!” I sobbed into his chest and he pulled my head back, looking down at my face, using his thumbs to wipe away my tears.
“Rachel, I love you too.” He whispered to me. “I will love you until the day my life ends, and probably even after that.
I hold every memory of you in my heart and I will never forget you, baby, my perfect, beautiful, Rachel.” He cried. “You’re the best thing that ever happened to me, and I thank you so much for coming into my life and making me a better man.
I’ll never forget you…never!” He professed, then he kssed me hard, but too soon he was pulling away. “I love you.” He whispered to me, then he looked passed me, his brows pulling together as he let me go.
“Do it.” He whispered to the man behind me.
“Calvin, No!” I shouted, trying to grab him. “I love you!” I screamed out right before the rag covered my nose and slowly, his beautiful face faded away and I slipped into blackness.
