Death of the Overlord

Elizabeth walked into the room with a cool expression on her face. She was focused on her task at hand. The overlord must die and not else really matter. This man had caused so much pain and harm to come to her family. Her daughter and son in law were both killed on his order. She stopped watching the Overlord leaning heavy against the mantel place staring into the fire.

Borious looked down at his bleeding stomach knowing what she was there to do. Nothing else but the truth could save his life tonight. All that he'd done to keep the vampire nation in one piece and now that was all going to be over in one night.

"We still can make that happen. The children hold the key to everything. They have the power to unite us all", said Borious.

"What must I do", said Elizabeth.

"One to rule in your world and one in mine the same as we wanted but this will be more than a union of heart but binding in the blood of a brother and sister", said Borious struggling.
