Two For The Blood

Ch.48 Heavy in Your Arms

Caine’s P.O.V.

No matter what Violet had said about helping to clean up the mess after Eris came and grabbed Eric, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy. Something worse than hell was going to happen, and even more so I had a feeling it was going to happen to the young demigod. There was something pulling at me inside to go find her and give her back up.

When I arrived at Eris’s mansion part of the place looked like it had been lit on fire. Then I smelt blood- and it was Violet’s. My ancient senses led me to her through the thick rain. In seconds I was drenched.

After a few minutes of searching I saw her laying motionless except when she would seize up and scream in pain.

“Violet!” I yelled and in an instant was bending down to pick her up.

I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown.

I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown

Blood poured out from every corner of her body it seemed and the scent filled my senses. It was first strong, then intoxicating, I almost dared to take a lick off her cheek but stopped myself when she whispered my name.

“You’re going to be ok. Hang in there Violet.” My voice was thick with hunger and sadness.

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms

Her eyes closed shut as I ran with her in my arms. The rain still hammering down, her heart beat becoming more and more feint, and my hunger becoming all most too much to bear. But I couldn’t let her down. I had to save her. Hopefully my blood would be enough.

And is it worth the wait
All this killing time?
Are you strong enough to stand
Protecting both your heart and mine?

Who is the betrayer?
Who's the killer in the crowd?
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound

“Don’t you dare give up on me! Stay with me!” I screamed at her and finally got to my house I was renting just outside Bon Temps.

Violet’s freezing, shaking body was completely limp and I was really starting to panic. After kicking open my front door I ran to my bedroom and placed her on the bed. Quickly I ripped her shirt off to see cuts so deep you could see a few bones in places.

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy
So heavy in your arms

I bit into my wrist and poured my blood onto her wounds. She was too gone beyond this point to even move except for the occasional twitch.

“You’re going to be ok. You’re going to be ok. I just need you to drink my blood now Violet. Come on,” I whispered and lifted her head up with one arm while putting my wrist I bit into against her mouth.

This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
(Ohhhh)
Whispering like it's a secret
Only to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart

Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms
(i'm so) Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms
(i'm so) Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms
(i'm so) Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms

At first she made no movement and I didn’t know what else to try. I called for her mom, Maximus, and any other gods up on Olympus to help me but no one answered.

“Son of a bitch! Violet take it!”

I was a heavy heart to carry
my beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown

I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he had me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground

I'm so heavy, heavy in your arms.

Heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms.
