41 Chapter 40 (1/2)

*Buford's POV*

As I walked toward Acadia, I heard Remey whisper harshly ”You did this to her, you were the last one in there” he accused.

I couldn't tell him any different, I did, and I wish I could have told her sooner, warned her of this, but I was under strict orders not to say a word.

I never thought I would fall in love, especially with this beautiful, kind-hearted woman in front of me. Even if she looks like she could kill us all in the next moment, I still loved her deeply and hated I did this.

I never let my eyes go away from hers, her eyes were completely black, not the pretty golden color that I yearned to look at.

She put her hand up for us to stop before we could reach her, and she looked around wildly. I took the opportunity to look up myself and see that both sides had many more people join them, they felt her magic like we did, it was a beacon calling us.

Acadia raised her hands and the ground seemed to shake, what was she doing? A whole bunch of people popped up across from her, they were in the middle of each group, but looking at them closely, they weren't people, they were the dead. She raised the dead like her father, man this is getting bad real quick.

”Queen Acadia, join our side, you know you want to, the power coursing through you right now is powerful. If you join us, you can let it out anytime you want to, and put those that hurt you in their place” The guy standing closer to her on the Merdique side taunted her.

”Don't listen to him Acadia, stay with us. We are on your side, we are here to protect you, I care about you” Remey told her out loud.

Acadia whipped her head towards him and let out a hysterical and scary laugh, uh oh, wrong thing to say right now.

She started elevating off the ground, her eyes never changing, and a black mist surrounding her now, she floated over to her new dead creations.

”Tsk Tsk, what shall I do” she said in a voice that I have never heard, it was deep, menacing, and vibrated every bone in our bodies.
