Chapter 37

I stare at my hands like I don’t even know who they are anymore. I want to go to Adam on

the floor but remind myself that he deserves this. He deserves to be in pain after everything

he’s done to me. He needs to suffer; he needs to bleed for every tear that left my eyes. I wouldn’t let himget away with everything easily. No matter how much it hurts me to see him in pain, I need to be strongand let it happen. I need to constantly remind myself of the pain that he made me feel; it’s the only wayto keep doing this.

Adam dusts himself off and lifts himself from the ground. I watch in awe as his wings reveal themselvesto all of us; they’re still just as beautiful as the last time I’d seen them. The crowd is looking on withexcitement now; they have never seen Adam’s wings before; I was the first and only one to see it untilnow.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) At least I thought I was, but from everythingLizzie had told me, he must have already shown it to her. He wouldn’t keep something like that from herif they told each other everything.

“Is that all you got?” He asks. “I’m still standing, aren’t I? You need to bring me to the ground. Do it. Bringme to the ground Amiera, let me rest at your feet. Don’t wait any longer; this is your chance.”

With that being said, he flies high, even higher than the glass cage. He’s giving us enough space to fight.I follow behind him, focused on providing him precisely what he asked for. This was it, the fight everyonewas excited to see. I was sure that no one expected me to make it this far, Adam was the stronger onefor now, and everyone knew that.

We face each other in the sky, above the grounds, away from everyone. And then it hits me, somethingthat should have sooner.

This was it, the image I had gotten when he’d kissed me that day inside of the jeep. We were in the sky,both looking powerful. Our wings were out, and we looked like something serious was about to happen.Was I able to see the future when he touched me last time? Even

though that sounds preposterous, that’s the only explanation that I have. I didn’t imagine anything; Iknow what I saw in that vision. Everything was the same, the clothes we wore, the location, even downto the look on our faces.

“Are we just going to stay here without doing anything?” Adam’s voice brings me back to reality. He wasstill waiting for a fight, and if a war were what he wanted, I would gladly give it

to him.

“You don’t look like someone that hates me,” he continues to speak, to taunt me. “If you

hated me, you would have finished me off already,”

1 snap my lips together and hit him with one flame after the next. To my horror, he doesn’t bother tododge any of my attacks; instead, he takes them he lets himself get hurt. Why wasn’t he fighting back?Why was he letting me win?

“Fight me, damn it!” I scream. I don’t want to fight someone that isn’t fighting back. I want him to hit mewith all he got. I knew I wasn’t prepared for it, but I still wanted to know what I was up against

I don’t have time to prepare when he flies to me, grabs me by my waist, and pulls me close, his lips arenear my ear, and I hate how much my body melts into him, “I’ll never fight you, Amiera, not today, nottomorrow. Not ever.”

“Stop lying to me!” I cry. “I’m fed up with your lies. I’m not falling for them anymore. You are clearly tryingto trick me just like you’ve done in the past. How can I believe you when you say that you’re not going to

fight me? How can I believe you when Lizzie already told me of your plans? You have already admittedto everything, so stop with the lies. I told you that I hate you, and I mean it. I hate you with a passion.”

His finger touches my lips, and my body shivers from the contact, “you don’t hate me. You love me. Iknow that you do, your mouth may lie, but your eyes cannot.”

Suddenly I remember everything Lizzie said to me before. He isn’t to be trusted. He’s going to use me todestroy our world, I wasn’t sure how true that was, but I wasn’t about to take any chances. Everythingelse she said happened to be accurate, so then how could I doubt her words? Adam was the one thatlied to me about everything, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)not her. She was theone Thad to believe, even though I didn’t trust her either.

| angrily shove him away from me and force more fire out of me. I watch as the hungry blaze continues togrow from the palm of my hands.

“Surrender now before it’s too late, Adam,” I warn him. I’m too angry to care about anything other thanthe anger and hurt I felt inside.

He sighs, “do what you must, Amiera. It has to be done. Don’t delay it any longer.”

I don’t wait for him to say anymore. The fire escapes from me and hits him head-on. His eyes connectwith mine, and I feel a tear roll down my cheeks as I watch him drop straight back down to the ground.

I try to hold back the tears, but they continue to flow down my face like a fountain. I didn’t want to hurthim. I know that I said I did, but the truth was that I didn’t. He was right; I still loved him with all my heart.I wanted him to be good; I didn’t want him to be my enemy. I

have to hurt me?

When I get back to the ground, many fire whisperers are cheering for me; I can see the pride in theireyes as they watch me land onto the floor. Adam had already picked himself off the ground and is

currently making his way out of the glass stage. It’s hard to watch him go like this. He didn’t try to fightme once; even though everyone was cheering for me, I felt like I didn’t deserve it. I was proud of myselffor finally being able to create fire, but this fight was not

a fair one.

Abigail runs to me and pulls me in for a hug. “You did it! My best friend is f*****g

awesome!”

I smile against her embrace. “You’re the awesome one. I’m so proud of you.”

Everyone begins to congratulate me, and I know that I’ve wanted this for the longest while, but I’manything but happy.

“We’re hosting an after-party tonight!” Bryan announces suddenly. “You’re all invited. We need tocelebrate the victory of our flaming whisperer. The location; the f*****g beach!”

A party hosted by Bryan? That doesn’t sound like a good idea to me. But it was yet another party tocelebrate my achievements, so how could I not attend?

“We need to pick out our outfits!” Abigail squeals with excitement. “I have the perfect bikini for you.”

Bikini?

Again, I didn’t think that was such a good idea. But whenever Abigail decided on something, it wasdifficult to convince her out of it. Most likely, I’ll end up wearing what she wants me to. If not for her, I’msure that my sister would also force me into something.

Later that day, I’m staring at myself in the mirror with wide eyes. I feel exposed like this; the white bikini isbarely covering anything.

“Can’t I wear that cover-up?” I ask her while pointing at it in her closet.

She shakes her head at me, “come on; we are going to be late. I’m sure everyone is waiting on you, afterall, this party celebrates you, no one else. I’m going to get us both there on time.”

After learning that I’d won Adam in battle, my parents had agreed for Abigail’s driver to

drop us both at the party. Of course, after hearing that Bryan was in charge of the event, they had nocomplaints.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) They still wanted me to fix myrelationship with both him and Aria; I didn’t see that happening anytime soon, however. already parkedand waiting for us.

She laughs, “I’m just proud of you; that’s all. I’m here to celebrate your achievements with you. So fix thatfrown, and let’s get to partying!”

I wish that I could share her excitement. All I can think about is whether or not Adam will

be there. Whenever I attended parties, and he attended, things never went as planned. Somethingalways happened between us, and I didn’t want that to happen this time.

The car stops suddenly, and we both get out. There are cars parked all over, and I can already tell thatthis is probably the biggest party I’ve ever attended, not that I’ve attended a lot. I just know that Bryanhad invited way too many people to this thing. I was already regretting coming here tonight.

The beach house is packed with people, and thankfully everyone is too preoccupied with what they’redoing to notice me. I was already uncomfortable in this tiny thing Abigail made me wear;I didn’t want toomuch attention on me. Which was ironic considering this party was supposed to be all about me.

There are balloons with my name on the ceilings and decorations everywhere, all praising the flamingwhisperer. I don’t know why but it makes me feel uncomfortable. Maybe it’s because I’m scared of letting

everyone down.

“Let’s walk down to the beach,” Abigail tells me, and I nod in agreement.

So far, there were no signs of Adam or Lizzie. However, it can just be that I haven’t seen them as yet.The place was so packed that it was possible that they were somewhere around, just surrounded bymore of their loyal followers.

As we walk down to the beach, I’m not as lucky as before, many eyes turn to me, and I hate how someof the men are looking at me. As always, I’m only happy when one man looks at me.

Igroan aloud, I need to catch a break. Why do my thoughts always go straight back to

him?

Tonight should be all about me. It doesn’t matter where Adam was or what he was up to. Tonight I needto be myself, and I definitely need to try and be happy again… Without him by my side.

However, all of that goes out the window as soon as the cool air hits my face and the

beach comes into my view.

It was absolutely breathtaking; I can’t remember the last time I’ve ever been to one. This view shouldmake me happy; it really should, but I feel anything but that.
