Chapter 156: Need To Kill

"I need to kill her. That is the only way he will be mine. Do you know he looked at me tonight. And he sat down to have a complete meal. He has never done that. He always finds an excuse to leave me halfway through the meal. But tonight we had a date so that is progress."

Gabe sighed and looked through the large glass wall at Arabelle who was still muttering about wanting to kill Nora. They’d been carefully trying to stop her obsession with Demetri but if had gone on too long. However, he knew that Demon’s patience was coming to an end.

Until now, he had not touched Arabelle because he had not wanted to hurt him. But now, he needed to protect Nora and if Arabelle continued to remain a threat, she would soon meet her end. He needed to get her away from here before she could do something about these thoughts of hers.

The doctor left her on the patient’s chair and walked out of the therapy room.

With a sigh, she said," Mr. Frost. I understand your need to continue the treatment as quietly as possible but Miss Arabelle is long past the stage to be able to let go of her delusion so easily. Don’t forget that instead of teaching her to not stalk and obsess, this disease of hers has been fed more by her mother and regrettably your own grandfather. She is already a threat to everyone around her."

"Getting her into a mental institution would be equivalent to abandoning her, Doctor Jay and leaving her open to the same things that happened in the past. Her parents will not let her get the treatment she needs. I cannot do that. I just need you to do this much so that I can take her out of this country. Once she is out of here, I have already arranged for a place to live in isolation with her. We can continue her treatment there without her having access to people who would do more harm than good."

"I understand what you are saying, Mr Frost. But even if you were to spend a lifetime in isolation with Miss Arabelle, there is no guarantee that she will ever be able to live normally. This would be equivalent to giving yourself a lifetime of punishment. Why would you do something like that? You have no obligation to her..."

"The obligation is love, doctor. I want to take care of her. If she had fallen sick, wouldn’t I then have stood by her. That is what the marriage vows are about- in sickness and in health."

"But she can harm you, Mr Frost. Miss Arabelle is quite capable of it."

"I know. Hence, I need to protect her from even herself. Don’t worry, I will be taking every medical precaution. She will be confined in that place as well. The only difference will be that she does not have to be cooped up in a cell, waiting for death to arrive."

Dr Jay nodded at the man respectfully. When Gabe Frost had approached her with his ridiculous idea, she had not held much hope. In fact, she had almost been tempted to tell him that he needed to get checked for delusions as well. But seeing him like this, it made her realize that there was still empathy in the world. This man was going to do everything to take care of the woman he loved, even to the extent of paying his own life as the price.

With a sigh, she decided to pitch the one idea that she had been toying with," There is one thing that we can consider, Mr Frost. It is a dangerous idea but if Arabelle falls for this ploy, then taking her out of this country, with her consent would be really easy for you."

"What is the plan, Doctor?"

As Doctor Jay outlined her plan, she could already see Gabe Frost rejecting the plan without giving it much consideration. She wanted to insist that he at least give it a thought but then he said," I’ve already discussed and considered this. It is just too dangerous."

Before Dr. Jay could say more to convince him, Arabelle spoke something that made Gabe’s blood run cold," Of course I’ve made the arrangements for you, Lara. You need not worry. Demon will never be able to find you both. And once she is dead, you can run away..."

Dr Jay and Gabe looked at each other before the doctor quickly made a move to return to the room to question Arabelle. Who was Lara?

Before the doctor could go inside to question her, Gabe ordered sharply," Ask her to re-confirm the plan."

Dr Jay looked troubled at the sudden change in the man’s demeanour and tried to speak softly," Mr Frost. Miss Arabelle has been talking about killing this person for a long while. The things she is saying now could very well be some manifested dialogue created by her subconscious mind."

"No. You need to find out the plan doctor. It is quite possible that Arabelle has really been in touch with someone and is already plotting to kill Nora."

"Mr. Frost, if I push her to reveal any plan, it could be dangerous to the patient... Please remember her mind still holds the power to protect herself. If she breaks the hypnosis, getting her under will be even more difficult."

Gabe pushed a hand through his hair and swore under his breath," Doctor, if we don’t discover the plan, it won’t matter if she breaks the hypnosis or not. She will be a target. I can protect her to the best of my ability, even overlook her past mistakes, but if she had already jeopardized Nora’s safety, I wouldn’t be able to save her even if I hid in hell."

Dr Jay nodded and returned to the room, carefully sitting down on the chair. She gently held Arabelle’s hand and tried to continue soothingly," Arabelle, it is me, Lara. I am worried that our plan will not work. Can you..."
