Chapter 14
1458words
My heart was racing faster than ever, and i never felt so scared in my whole life. I've run a few more times only to go back to the same place with two idiots behind me.
The way things are happening creeped me out. Was i dreaming or this is reality? It seemed so real that it actually scared me that it's true.
"Gina.. " i said trying to contact my Wolf.
But she didn't answer me.
"Gina! Answer me.."
She didn't respond.
"What's happening? I've run a few times only to end up back here! Tell me something is wrong! You must know!" I said desperately trying to talk to her.
But still, she didn't answer me.
The reason why i was using the last resort was that even i couldn't use any power to escape from this illusion. I was trying to force my wolf to give me powers but these times i couldn't get a drop from her. It's like she completely disappeared.
It's like i was in a different dimension. I looked behind me and saw the endless darkness that stretched behind me. "What the hell is happening." I gulped.
I looked at the room where i came from and saw little light coming from there, i only just noticed, making me raise an eyebrow. I silently stood up and headed towards the room.
I heard voices.
"Call me Beta Jaxon" the built man says, laced with anger.
I was hiding behind the room, careful not to be discovered. I looked again at the built man who appeared yesterday before my mate was able to stop me from escaping. He was speaking with a witch-Syrena?
"Then stop growling at me!"
"Fine."
"Then tell me, why do you ask so much in healing her?"
While i was staring at them, being the clumsy-reckless woman i am. I tripped and my body fell down into the cold ground. I cursed, knowing that they've discovered me.
But when i looked towards them, they were still talking to each other, not noticing me. My eyes widened, i didn't saw this earlier but right now when i was completely in the room, i saw something horrifying,
I saw my body lying on the bed.
"Oh shit." I gasped. "If that's me, then.." i said then hugged my physical body. My body felt real..
But looking at the body infront of me and this two people talking infront of me seems more believable than real.
Everything went black, i could no longer hear their conversation, not really that i understood it but everything that is happening scared me,
I wondered, am i ghost?
Or is it that my soul left my body to wander around. If i touch my real body.. would i return?
I ran to my body and touched it, i quickly pulled away when my hand passed through in my body. I was getting used to this creepy event that i didn't even care anymore. Maybe i was a ghost, and this is reality.
I turned towards the guy.
"What do you expect? She's been running away from him most of the time." The beta says while staring down on my body.
"Is he talking about me?" I asked myself. "Yep it's probably me."
I looked behind me towards the door and saw someone passed through it. WHAT THE HELL! Did i just saw a white woman passing through?! Oh shit this turned to werewolf to real horror.
I ran behind Syrena and looked at the door, what was that?
"Where the hell are you Gina!" I whispered almost screaming. When i noticed that Syrena moved a step forward, i looked at her.
What is she looking at?
The Beta who was talking with her a while ago stepped towards her and faced her face to face. "We must leave." He says.
"Why? He's gonna visit again?" Syrena groans.
"Who's gonna visit? Don't tell me itms that jerk!"
"C'mon Syrena, you don't wanna die right?" He says dragging her away.
"No! Don't leave me! I don't want that jerk here!" I screamed, but i was still invisible. I laid on the bed where my body was, thinking that my body and i would be one again,
But it didn't work, i just fell on my ghost ass.
Looking towards the door, i wondered if i can see something besides darkness outside. Did it change? Those were the thoughts that flew in my mind. I stood up and gathered my courage.
Let's do this.
I was about to step forward if it wasn't for that jerk that came in unnoticed. I didn't sense him, must be because i'm just a soul. Even while i'm a ghost, i avoided him and placed my back on the farthest wall.
I know he can't see me nor sense me but the idea of him being here, still alerts me.
His face was stone cold, and there were signs of lack of sleep under his eyes. He looks absolutely stressed, must be the Alpha Work. I continued to observe him while he sat near my body.
He looked almost desperate and i don't know why. He raised my left hand and held it into his. He places gentle kisses as he looks at my body.
I felt a sharp pang of guilt when i saw his affection. He truly loved me as a mate. What was happening to me then? Why is he being emotional? Am i in a coma?
How long was i out?
How did i end up here? If i connect the events, i realized that it must be the barrier i broke. Ever since i broke the barrier weird things had been happening.
Things had been unrealistic.
"Please wake up." He says in a deep voice.
I just stared at him.
"Wake up.. wake up.. come back to me." He begs.
Come back to you? I was never yours.
He places his forehead into my hand and he sat still. The room was filled with infinite silence, making the guilt worsen even more. I don't know anymore, maybe i'm just dreaming and all of this ghost bullshit isn't real. I won't let myself falter in escaping.
I glared at the sight of him, all of this isn't real.
I'm just dreaming.
He lifted his head, i gasped. He's tearing? I stepped towards trying to confirm it. His hair was a mess and he held my hand like i was already dead.
Dead...
Holy shit, maybe i am dead,
SYRENA's POV
"Can you please get out?"
"Whatever Sy, stop obeying too many orders from those dogs." Mary giggled evilly.
Yep just like the name Bloody Mary, she's just as evil as it sounds. I rolled my eyes at her and focused at my bowl. I was gathering my ingredients when she came with her complaints, she's obviously not wanted here.
"You know other D witches aren't happy with the way you're acting. Also, i hate you." She rolls her eyes.
I ignored her and i looked at my bowl, i was still missing some ingredients. Ugh Christal is making me poor with her emergencies, why the hell is she always hurt?? i'm running out of resources.
"Then why do you need to disturb me?"
"Obviously The Alpha King favors you, if he knew we get along maybe he'll notice me and make me his private witch."
"What happened with 'witches don't serve dogs' "i chuckled at her.
"Whatever!" She flips her hair, some of it falling into my bowl.
"No! Now you ruined it," I groaned.
Another wasted ingredient.
She laughs at me and banged the door closed, why must those annoying witches that i came from annoy me? I'm not even bothering them.
I looked at my bowl and saw the fading spell that i cast to it. One small substance can change a spell, because of her hair it was all ruined. I sighed, it takes hours to make a potion.
Because of my destroyed potion that i was trying to make, it only dawned to me something.
I forgot to notice something. ..The barrier that i cast!
"Oh no. It's been so long since i cast a strong barrier like that, must be why i forgot the things that need attention." I said taking deep breathes. "That spell (the one with the barrier) still contains dark magic, she'll die if i don't remove the Illusion spell in 5 days.. she only has 1 day left!"
I sat flat on the ground.
"But how?! Her. Body's not in the condition in performing dark arts! How can i perform the removal spell.."
No no no! There must be a way!
If she dies.. I'll also die.
