Siren (Boyxboy)

Chapter 32: Only You

"Oomph!" Kiopi grunts. My eyes pop open. A boy claws at Kiopi's face. Kiopi struggles holding the boys hands away from him. "Get, get off of me!"

"Wha-" My heart skips a beat. The boy from the city. The young boy that ran into Sheomès. I rush to my feet. Raising my hands extending the weapons from my palms. Thick bladed daggers lay in my hands. The boy goes tumbling into the tree. Gasping hitting the trunk. Glaring at Kiopi.

"No! You bastard you killed my family! I can't die!" The boy screams, hurdling himself towards Kiopi. Tackling him yet again. I stare, frazzled. Eyes widening as the boy deviously attacks Kiopi. I stumble forward, digging into the cherry tree trunk. Peeking off the wood in a long strand.

"Bring him over!" I command. Kiopi gets dragged over. Blood dripping from his split lip. Glaring up at me. The boy hisses revealing extracting fangs. I shake myself out of my trance wrapping the sticky wood around Kiopi. Trapping him. Brushing his cheek as he struggles. "Please calm down. I'll find a way to free you and the others under Xyrie's curse."

"N-no! Xyrie is the only one-"

"I am the only one for you." I correct him. Pulling him walking backwards. "Me. I'm the only one."

"Piss off, filthy Siren." Kiopi hisses.

"Kiopi..." I stumble on my words, saddened. The boy grabs the rope from my hands. Smirking.

"I could help you. Just let me." He says, I nod solemnly and release the rope. The boy tugs Kiopi along with him as we walk back to the battle.

Our eyes glancing at each other in awe. The battlefield lays painted with bodies of the dead and blood fills the grass. Red takes heavy steps shining from his dragon form to his human form. Before falling onto the ground. Ajax rushes to aid him. I rush to them. Glancing at the guys. Red lay in Ajax's lap, smirking up at him, aimlessly exhausted. Vinmir and Sachi sit beside each other on the ground near Xindachi. Daemon emerges from behind one of his undead ogres. Clicking his tongue at me.

"I...have to go back." Daemon announces, hurt in his voice, he lowers his eyes before flicking them back up curling his lips. "I'm glad I could help in this battle. Perhaps the next one we shall join again?" Daemon suggests, winking. I sigh. I wasn't a part of this battle. Am I...useful?

"If you are needed." Yumina answers, shaking the ground slightly. I nod, weakly grinning.

"You've caught Kiopi." Ulin notes, getting Kiopi to his feet. Kiopi continues struggling. "Calm, my son, calm."

"Pfft!" Kiopi spits in Ulin's face. Ulin face flashes with hurt. "You aren't my father. Traitor!"

"No." Ulin responds, calmly. "I am not your father but...in my eyes you are my son. I will rid you of this curse. It is a given."

"What curse? Your insane!" Kiopi yells in his face. Ulin steps away.

"We will interrogate him and keep him locked up in the dungeon in the castle. Let's make haste." Ulin commands, throwing his fist up.

"Make haste!" I command.

???? POV.

The Siren is hurt. Not only physically but mentally; emotionally. Seems the captive we have is the one the Siren loves. A curse, they speak of. I-I don't understand. I'm lost. The wolves eye me up. Apparently I'm a suspicious person?

"Are you...safe?" A wolf with orange eyes asks me. Pointing with his thumb to himself. "I'm Vinmir."

"I..." I trail off, mind fazing.
