Stefan’s Diaries: The Craving Chapter 26

What are you doing here? I demanded.Lexi raised a brow at me. Same thing you are. Looking forrader to a long, painful eternity together.No, I mean why didnt you run? I asked, resisting the urge to take her by the shoulders and press her.Of course I ran, you idiot she snapped. only when I guess he judge I would. I n forever veritable(a) saw him come after me. I could feel her shiver in the dark. He appeared step to the fore of instanterhere. Her spokesperson grew grim. I respect if thats how humans feel when they meet us. If we ever get f each out of this, I force out I am going to be nicer to them in the future. Humans, I mean. That vampire now him I want to kill.I upchuck my hand on her forearm, softening. I retributory pray we get that chance.Come, lets get out of here. She turned and swung her leg, putting the heel of her bearing smack into the middle of the doors.There was a resounding thud, but nothing budged.She delivered other roundhouse kick to the doors. And another. And another.Again, nothing happened.Together she insisted. On the count of three we both kicked. peradventure thithers vervain in the st oneness ? I suggested. Lexi looked grim. Vervain doesnt appoint things indestructible. But there are other things that can be done to lock something up. Permanently. What about the walls?For the adjacent hour we ran our fingers over the white walls, ceilings, and floors, our extremely sensitive skin picking out even the most minute gaps. We ripped bold sarcophagi, ransacked the corpses for tools.No knives, no diamond crosses, no silver-plate Bibles, no pennies for Charon, no lucky stone, no nothing, I growled, throwing my detainment up in frustration.This doesnt look good, was all Lexi verbalise.Twenty-four hours later there was a improvement in the chapel. We could hear it with our Powers. It was a memorial to the Sutherlands, to the two brides who were killed, to the proud parents along with a biting invective against the materi alisation men who did it, running off with the component money. Murderers, thugs, con men, robbersThe only accusation that didnt make the list was demon.But none of the insults halt us from screaming.Help I yelled. In here Were in hereLexi added her voice to mine, screeching in different altissimo tones that nearly blew out my eardrums. At one point I could hear a hollow-voiced Hilda whisper, Do you hear something? And our hopes were raised.And then nothing. The service ended, people filed out, and once again we were completely, perfectly alone.With sigh, Lexi gave me my ring back.Many thanks for its loan, she said quietly, slipping it on my finger. But I dont think it will do me or you much good now.I hugged her tight. Dont make up up yet, I whispered in her ear.But the words echoed hollowly within the crypt, having nowhere else to go.
