His destined mate
Chapter 71

Bianca's POV

Darkness found me, an all-consuming void that really attracted me. I felt weightless, suspended in endless silence. Fear began to form at the edges of my mind. "Ethan!" I screamed, but the shadow swallowed my voice and plunged into the depths.

I took a deep breath, focusing on the warmth of our relationship and the bond that carried us through the darkest of times. "I won't lose you!" I thought aloud, imagining his face, as his eyes sparkled with determination. Deep in his heart, his presence warmed and the flames went out. As I focused on that light, a soft glow began to surround me. It rang softly, illuminating the darkness and casting an eerie shadow over the void. "Ethan!" I called back, my voice choked with frustration.

I reached out, letting my magic match the light. Suddenly I felt a pull-a strong pull that pulled me forward. I jumped over, my heart pounding in anticipation. "Please take this to him!" I thought, pushing myself into the darkness with all my might.

Ethan's POV

I woke up gasping for air. The world around me was chaotic, swirling shadows and whispers. My heart pounded as I struggled to regain my grip. "Bianca!" I screamed, feeling an emptiness in my chest.

The last thing I remember is the blinding light-was it real, or just an illusion? The shadows passed around me, their whispers mocking. "You can't save him, Ethan. He's going."

A voice laughed, and I knew it was Derek's. Anger rose within me, causing my magic to burn like wildfire. "No!" I cried, focusing on the memory of Bianca-the warm smile on her face, the strength of our relationship.

I could feel our connection, slow but steady, a thread unraveling in the chaos. "I won't give up!" By drawing on that energy, I summoned my magic and let it flow through me.

The shadow stopped, breathing at the intensity of the light. I felt the ground shake beneath me, the air full of energy. Squeezing forward, I saw a familiar figure in the distance-a luminous figure peeking out from the darkness. "Bianca!" I screamed as I ran towards him.

The attraction intensified, and the light became a warm cock that enveloped me and pushed me into the shadows. Suddenly I burst into darkness, and the world around me changed. I saw myself in a great light, glowing like a dream. Ethan stood in front of me, his face a mixture of relief and determination. "Bianca!" he exclaimed with his hands outstretched.

I ran towards her, and eventually our fingers intertwined, the light intensifying as it filled the space with warmth. "together!"

We shouted in unison, our magic meeting and forming a shining shield that pushed away the approaching darkness.

But just when we thought we were solid, the shadow twisted violently and turned into strange shapes. "Do you think you can escape me?" Derek's voice roared with anger. "They won't reject me!" Ethan's POV

The ground shook as Derek released a stream of dark energy, and I braced myself. "We have to fight together!" I shouted, holding Bianca's hand tightly.

The darkness continued to flow, but I could feel our bond growing stronger, our magic coming together like a strange quilt. "Let's show him what we can do!" Bianca declared, her eyes burning with determination.

I nodded, channeling my energy into the shadow light. The collision had exploded, sending shock waves through the void. Derek stumbled back, but his smile was sweet, cruel and teasing. "Do you think this is enough? You're just delaying the inevitable!"

I pushed forward with every ounce of energy. "We'll never let you win!" I roared, feeling the energy pulsating between us. But as I pushed into the darkness, I felt a sudden change.

The ground beneath me began to crack, like a snake crack outside, as if the world itself had been torn apart. "Bianca!" I screamed, trying to keep our footing. Bianca's POV

The commotion around us intensified, light warming as the shadows loomed over us. "We can't tear him apart!" I cried, squeezing Ethan's hand tightly. Energy flowed between us, and I focused on our connection, determined not to hold on to fear.

But Derek wasn't done. He grinned maliciously and summoned a wave of darkness that separated us. I felt the shock of separation, the relationship smoldering like a dying ember. "Ethan!"

I screamed as I reached out, but the shadow tried to pull me away. Derek's laughter pierced my ears, creaking. "No!" I screamed, forcing myself to activate the magic inside. I could feel the warmth of sharing Anne

I focused on that relationship, and I guided him. I released a wave of light in a loud scream against the shadow that sought to devour me.

The darkness twisted and groaned, but I kept going, determined to see Ethan again.

Ethan's POV

I struggled against the pull of the darkness, my heart pounding as I searched for Bianca. The shadow clawed at my mind, but I pushed it away, focusing on our connection, the light we created together. "Bianca!" I screamed, frustration creeping into my voice.

I could feel his presence, faintly but undeniably, a glimmer of hope in the oppressive darkness. Suddenly the ground gave way beneath me, and I found myself falling into the abyss. "No!" I was terrified as I fell, shadows surrounding me. But even as I fell, I felt a tug-Bianca's magic spread over me, guiding me. I caught the light, and felt it pull me up.

"Mereba!" he said, smirking. I screamed, forcing myself to roll through my magic. The darkness fought back, but I didn't turn away. I could hear Bianca's voice strong and unwavering.

"Ethan! Get over it!" he shouted, and at that moment I felt the ground firmly under my feet. I could see him again, a beacon of light in the midst of the chaos." As I ran towards him, a stirring of purpose moved me forward again.

But when I reached out, the shadow twisted wildly, trying to ensnare us both. "Bianca, hold on!" I screamed as I reached for his hand, but darkness flowed between us, our fingers almost touching, and a dark burst of light, destroying everything in its path one last time I heard his angry screams of Derek echoing in the void as the world crumbled around us.
