Skyler jolted awake in her bed, her heart pounding inside of her chest. She felt the cool breath at the back of her neck. She took a deep breath as she slid on one of Damions shirts and quietly made her way downstairs. Her wolf, Kal, silently followed her as she went to the gardens. The wolf let out a deep growl as she paused. "Shadows suit you, Leon." She said softly as she folded her arms across her chest, her face cold as she saw the blue eyed demon seem to melt from the darkness to stand before her. Once....Skyler thought him beautiful. But she knew beneath that beautiful face was a monster. One that destroyed her world. But perhaps what took her aback as she gazed at him, was the regret in his eyes.
"Its good to see you, Lady Mikaelson." He said formally as he went to one knee before her. Skyler kept her face expressionless as she watched him. "There are no words that could ease the pain....or my crimes against your kin. You owe me nothing yet I owe you everything.....Yet I would beg a favor of you." He said softly as his head bowed. Skyler's jaw clenched ever so slightly as she looked down at him. "Release me.....The blood of your kin once soaked my hands.....and now I would beg you to take the justice you deserve. Free me.....and claim the vengeance of your family." He begged her. Skyler felt her fangs sharpen against her gums. This man....this demon....had taken so much in her mortal life. Tortured her parents. Stole her mother's heart and gave it to a demon who had nearly killed them all. And now here he knelt....begging her to end his life.
She took a slow step towards him. Then another. Until her bare legs brushed his bowed head. She reached a hand down and trailed her fingers through his hair. He trembled beneath her touch. She paused. Contemplating. Her grip on his hair yanking him to his feet as her other hand punched hard. Splintering ribs and tearing through sinew. He cried out as blood spat from his lips. She felt his heart beating in her palm as her fingers curled around it. Felt the tar like stickiness of his blood on her skin as her glowing silver eyes found his panicked blue ones. "This.....is what they felt...." She growled as she squeezed the throbbing muscle. "What I felt....when you ripped their hearts out infront of me. Knowing I would feel it. See it." She said as she squeezed it tighter, making him sob. She got nose to nose with him as she held him. "I should rip you apart.....one piece at a time. But....." She said before she spit in his face. "That'd give you relief. And YOU don't deserve to be free." She said before she yanked his head back hard.
"You don't deserve mercy. Or kindness." She buried her fangs deep into his throat then. Her hand tightened. Squeezing his heart until she felt it burst like a grape in her fist. His screams echoed before fading into silence. She dropped his corpse as she stepped back, blood smeared across her lips. A smirk curved her lips as she saw him rise then.....a transparent soul hovering over his body. "Only the brave deserve the peace of death. Of Heaven. But the Gates will forever be closed to you. I CURSE you....to wander this mortal world. You will ache in unimaginable ways with no solace. No comfort. No peace. A powerless Shade. No one will hear your voice. No food nor drink will ever ease your thirst. No warmth will soothe you. You are nothing. And will forever remain as nothing." Skyler said as she drew the sigil into his corpse with her bloody fingertips. His soul and body seemed to burst then, the black soot of him lifting up into the air to carry it away along with her curse.
Skyler felt a cold numbing sensation wash over her. Magic always came with a cost, even hers. And it was no small thing to curse not just a body but a soul. Skyler felt the world spin around her before she collapsed, her wolf letting out a bark as it moved to cushion her fall. "I'm okay...I'm fine...." Skyler slurred softly against the wolfs fur as he laid down with her
