Chapter 239: So many conflictions

I will make this right.

I wake up from the dream and my heart thuds achingly against my chest. It has been a week since I left the community and I have missed them both so much. It has been very hard ignoring Gyles because the minute I found out that he got a phone from Rex, I waited for his call. I knew he was going to call, but I just don’t, and when he did. I didn’t answer. It has been very hard ignoring him, especially since all I have been doing is thinking about the two of them.

It has been hard not talking to him. I don’t know how much longer I can keep up with this because every morning I wake up, I want to hear his voice. I want to know how his day went. There are so many things I want to find out about him. His memories, that day, we didn’t talk about it and I wish I could just let him know that it is not his fault. The things that have happened to him are all so messed up and I know he thinks that they happened to him because it was him but I know better and I know that he was just unfortunate at that point in his life. I also know that things will get better but I don’t tell him all this because I had to play hard to get. This is all a ruse and deep down he must know that eventually, I will come around. I might act like I don’t give a shit right now but I still check up on them every night. I make sure I see them as they go to bed. It is a special power of mine that I have been abusing because of them. I don’t mind it. Just knowing that they are both alright is all that matters to me.

I sit up on the bed, thinking about the dream that was so real. He pulled me into his dream, which means he is finally becoming one with his wolf. It is exciting because all along, I knew that he just needed to accept his wolf to feel everything. The disconnection he had with his wolf is what made him so arrogant and selfish. Finally, I feel he is at the place that I have been waiting for him to get to and I know that everything is going to be easy.

My door opens and Levine walks in, she has a smile on her face. This is the first smile I have seen on her face since I got here. "She is awake,’’ she exclaims and leaves my room hurriedly.

Mom has been unconscious since I came here and usually, the remedy with my blood didn’t work as fast as it usually does which just means that the poison was stronger. We still don’t know who did it but I am supposed to find out. Almost like it is a role of my, figuring out the culprit. I don’t know how to tell her that I don’t even want to be in this coven anymore. There is a pact that you take when you join a coven. You can never leave. It is almost like a betrayal but I never took that pact. I was born into the coven and I never completed the calling ceremony. All through my life, I didn’t feel like I belonged, so I never really thought about settling here. Even before I found out I was a wolf, I knew that I wouldn’t stay here for the rest of my life.

It wasn’t something I wanted. So leaving the coven should be easy. The only hard part of it is telling her that I don’t belong here anymore. Somehow, she is still so stuck on me. it almost feels like can’t survive without me and I don’t have it in me to break her heart.

I get up from the bed and run out of my room, dressed in a pair of sweats and a plain white shirt. I go to her room. the last time I was here, she was unconscious in bed, now she is awake and seated upright. She smiles immediately she sees me and makes an attempt to get up.

"Just stay where you are mom,’’ I mutter seeing how difficult it is for her to move.

"My baby is home.’’

The fact that she is calling me baby just shows how clingy she is to me. I am not a baby and I have not been one for a long time but she still treats me as one. Almost like she doesn’t believe that I can survive without her.

I look at her closely to make sure there is no physical damage. Her black hair is packed up in a bun and her green eyes shine brightly. Her skin is paler than usual but there is still a tan on her. The freckles on her nose are duller than usual—overall, she looks okay to me.

"Hey mother,’’ I manage. Walking over to the bed. I stop in front of her and she stretches her arms out. I lean forward until she wraps me into her arms, breathing softly.

"I thought I would never see you again.’’

She is exaggerating. She knew that I would come back, I just needed some space and I haven’t even forgiven her for lying to me and keeping my father away from me. She knows that and if I didn’t see how serious this was, I would believe that it was all a plan to get me home.

"Something is different about you,’’ she echoes as I pull away from her. I actually want to talk to her about what happened. Why this happened in the first place because we need to find the person responsible before they try again.

"I don’t know what you mean,’’ I try to brush it off.

She rolls her eyes "You know I can tell, so spill it before I get it out of you.’’ she warns me in an almost threatening tone.

I know she can but I don’t want to talk about it right now "What happened here mother,’’ I ask her, completely changing the topic. She rolls her eyes again and then focuses on what is serious right now.

"I don’t know, one minute I was okay and then next I wasn’t,’’ she explains to me. I am glad that she doesn’t focus on me and the things that are happening with me because I don’t think I am ready to tell her. her story is short but apparently, there was a party, one that we have every two months and she let people come into the house, which makes me think that this is now a case that is wide. I thought it would be someone close to her but now, the suspects are a lot and I can’t even think of who it could be.

I go back to my room with thoughts on how I am going to handle this. I don’t know what I can do about this but I also know that she will not let me go until I find out who did it. the responsibilities she put on my head are just so much that it is quite hard to handle. Right now, I just have to find out, I know it will be hard but I have my willed sense, and if I have to interrogate everybody one by one. Then I will do just that.

Sitting on my bed, my phone rings and I see Rex’s name on the screen. It brings a smile to my face because I have missed him so much. the worst thing about leaving the community is not being able to see them when I want to.

"Hello,’’ I breathe into the phone. There is a smile on my face, the kind that only rex can bring.

I can almost tell where he is. In his room, in front of the window. His glasses on his face. That cute but confused expression on his face. The fact that I can already picture him, just shows me how much he means to me.

"Hi,’’ just the sound of his voice sends a schilling sensation down my spine.

I close my eyes as I try to steady my heartbeat. "When are you coming back?’’ he adds a question. I was avoiding thi9s because now I have to tell him that it might take a while before I come back to them. The fact that this happened, just means I won’t be able to leave anytime soon.

I take a deep breath because I have to be honest with him. "It might take a while,’’ I give him the vaguest answer I can because there is so much uncertainty.

"How long is a while?’’ he asks. The tone of his voice has changed. I can tell that he is worried. I know he is thinking about our mating and everything that comes with it.

"A couple of weeks."

I wait for his response because I know he won’t take it well. Rex is a calm person. In fact, that is one of the things that made me attracted to him in the first place. in a crowd, he is easily noticed, even though he tries to keep himself in the shadows.

"what about us?’’ he asks.

I close my eyes because I need to explain to him that they are the most important people to me but I just have to sort this out first.

I have to protect her.
