Chapter 470: Faye Did Warned Them

"You really are playing with fire, Silviana, and you just had to bring the witch into the furnace," Faye said, glaring at the woman sitting on the pew.

Silviana was seriously testing her patience. Faye had not laid eyes on her since the Superman punch in the principal’s office, and now the woman had gone as far as chaining her to a chair and dragging her into some ridiculous ritual.

"Why on earth am I here? This is between you and your bitch of a sister, so why the hell did you drag me into your mess?"

"Relax, Faye Grande. I’m not trying to harm you or the child growing inside you. I’m just trying to save my sister," Silviana replied.

Her attention shifted towards the altar, where Doctor Jacqueline was busy carving runes onto Kiara’s face. Although Silviana was determined to save her sister, she couldn’t help worrying that the doctor might make a mistake. If Kiara opened her eyes before the ritual was completed, the person looking back at them might not be Kiara at all, but the demon residing inside her.

"I am not going to relax, do you hear me? Once I get out of these chains, I’m coming for your fucking neck! And I won’t fucking stop, even if you begs me to. I swear I won’t stop!"

Faye continued threatening Silviana and demanding that she release her, but the woman paid her no attention. She had already made up her mind, and no amount of swearing from the pregnant Omega was going to change it.

When Jackie finished drawing the runes across Kiara’s body, she stepped down from the altar and approached Faye.

"Doctor Jacqueline, what are you doing here? That bitch is just using you!" Faye snapped, glaring at the woman.

"I’m sorry, Faye. I’m just doing what I can to help, and I promise you she isn’t using me. I volunteered to help her with the ritual." Jackie paused, looking directly at Faye. "Right now, I just need some of your blood to help balance the demon inside Kiara."

"My blood is the fucking reason you trapped me inside a fucking coffin for God knows how many fucking hours!" Faye shouted, directing her anger towards Silviana, who remained seated on the pew.

"Why can’t you have a normal vocabulary without the word fuck?" Silviana asked, sounding more annoyed than concerned.

"This isn’t school or the principal’s office. I can say whatever I want! Fuck you, and fuck you too, Doctor. I’m not going to let you be the OB for my child’s birth!"

Jackie ignored the threat and did what she had come to do. She took a syringe, drew blood from Faye’s vein, and returned to the altar with the sample.

Faye watched her go, her expression growing darker as the silver chains continued burning against her skin. She had no intention of forgiving any of them for what they were doing, and once she was free, Silviana would regret ever getting her involved.

After some time, the young girl sitting beside Silviana finally stood up and approached the altar.

"You know, if you had your memories, you would remember being in this exact position before, except for the chains. You did it willingly when you helped cast out the demon inside me," Silviana explained.

Faye barely spared her a glance.

"Just so you know, it won’t work. You can’t cast Perico out of Kiara’s body, no matter what you do. You could get every Kings to imprint on Kiara, and it would still be inevitable. Perico and Kiara are one now."

She had no interest in listening to Silviana’s stories about their past. The woman could keep her memories and whatever history they shared to herself. Faye had more important things to worry about, especially with Princess and Bambi still unconscious somewhere in the graveyard.

"Did Kiara tell you about why I entered her head and made a deal with the Fire Demon?" Faye asked.

"I am aware of that. That is why I put her inside a coffin for eighteen hours. The demon is smitten and won’t be able to play tricks. Your blood will also calm him down. No matter how much he tries to resist, he will leave my sister’s body tonight," Silviana declared confidently.

Faye stared at her for a moment, almost amused by how certain the woman sounded.

"Do you know why my blood calms him down? Or why the Fire Demon’s powers don’t work on me?"

Her voice grew serious as she watched Silviana, who still seemed convinced that everything would go according to plan.

"I remember very clearly now. Ever since I entered Kiara’s mind, my memories have been coming back. It’s slow, but I remember how you deceived me and my brother, Paye. You made him choose between his happiness and saving my life. You were the one who frightened him, telling him I would be in great danger as long as I stayed here in Oakland."

Faye paused, her eyes narrowing.

"You were the one who made me erase my memories of Princess, and I ended up erasing half of them instead. The school water system was only meant for the students. I remember you telling me that as long as I stayed with Princess, she would die."

Silviana’s lips curved into a slight smirk as she realised Faye was telling the truth. Her attention shifted to the white streaks running through Faye’s hair, and for a moment, she seemed to understand that something was changing.

"Regaining your memories won’t stop what is happening tonight," she said firmly.

"Were you not listening when I said it wasn’t going to work?"

Faye turned her attention towards the altar, where Jackie was preparing the young Alpha to take part in the ritual. The doctor took the young girl’s hand and began instructing her on what to say.

"Repeat after me."

Jackie spoke the words slowly, making sure Diana understood what she needed to say.

"I, Diana Kings, accept and denounce the demon inside Kiara Petro."

"I, Diana Kings, accept and denounce the demon inside Kiara Petro," Diana repeated.

Nothing happened.

Jackie looked towards Kiara, then instructed Diana to repeat the words. The girl obeyed, saying the same sentence again and again, but there was no change. Perico remained inside Kiara’s body, and the ritual showed no sign of working.

Faye watched the scene with growing amusement.

"When Adam uttered those exact words, I’m pretty sure Perico came out almost immediately. Why isn’t he coming out now?" she asked mockingly.

Silviana’s confident expression began to crumble as she watched Jackie repeat the process without success.

"What did you do?" she demanded, rising slightly from the pew.

"Nothing. I’m just telling you it won’t work. This is fun, you know, watching all your efforts go to waste."

Faye smiled, perfectly calm despite the silver chains burning her skin. She had warned them from the beginning, but they had refused to listen. Now they were wasting their time trying to force something that was never going to happen.

Jackie continued with the ritual while Silviana struggled to understand what had gone wrong. Eventually, the woman stood up from the pew, unable to hide her frustration.

"This is impossible! It worked for me, so why isn’t it working for her?"

"Maybe because Kiara accepted what you rejected," Faye replied.

Her smile disappeared as she looked down at the chains binding her to the chair.

"I’m tired of being stuck on this fucking chair and getting burned for no reason. My girlfriend is somewhere in a graveyard, unconscious, and I’ve had enough of this nonsense. So, Silviana, I think this is where I stop playing nice with you."

Silviana stared at Faye as the Omega slowly lifted her head.

Then she saw Faye’s eyes begin to glow.

They were not yellow, as an ordinary Omega’s eyes should have been. Instead, they shone with the colour of the moon, an unmistakable sign that something far more powerful was stirring inside her.

"Come on now. It’s time to play."

Faye’s eyes glowed brighter as she turned towards the altar.

Silviana had gone to great lengths to keep Faye separated from her Betas, believing that the chains and the ritual would prevent her from interfering. What she had failed to realise was that the person lying unconscious on the altar was Faye’s own Beta.

She should have listened when Faye and Kiara warned her not to pull any strings.

Now, one of them was going to pay the ultimate price.
