Chapter 277: Acting suspicious
Blue.
I open my eyes to sounds in the bathroom.
Jumping off the bed, I see that Gyles is the only one on his side. He is still sleeping soundly. My mind goes to Rex because right now, he is not in the right frame of mind and the fact that I can’t sense anything from him scares me terribly. The only thing I have is my willed sense. The part of me that makes me less vulnerable to the world and now it seems like there is something blocking my abilities from reading him.
I walk over to the door of the bathroom and knock on it gently. I don’t want him to think I don’t trust him in there. Yeah, he is not himself right now but he is there. He might not be completely okay but from his eyes, I know he is still there.
"Rex,’’ I call his name gently. I hear the rummaging in the bathroom and when I turn the handle, I realize that the door is locked "Are you okay in there?’’ I ask because now I am getting worried.
The sounds don’t reduce and in a second, I hear footsteps and Gyles is next to me "What is going on?’’ he asks, I turn to him slowly and his eyelids are half-closed. It’s funny that you would just wake up from sleep and still be tired.
"I don’t know, he won’t answer,’’ I inform him even though the fear is evident in my voice. I am already thinking of worse case scenarios.
"Rex, open the door,’’ Gyles moves closer to the door and starts to hit on it. My heart is already pounding against my chest. He hits the door louder "Open the fucking door now,’’ he is thinking the same things I am thinking.
Rex is unstable now.
"I am going to fucking break this door down,’’ he warns him. There is silence at the other side of the door and a couple of seconds later, he opens the door and we both watch him. "Hey,’’ he says with a faint smile. This smile is fake, I know him, I know how he smiles and right now, he is not smiling with his eyes.
"Didn’t you hear us knocking?’’ I ask him confused by the whole situation.
He sighs loudly. Almost like he is frustrated with this. "I was using the toilet, am I not allowed to on my own?’’
I close my eyes for a second as he walks further into the room, completely ignoring our worried expressions. I watch him unsure of what to say or do.
"What the fuck is wrong with him?’’ Gyles asks confused too.
"I don’t know,’’ I tell him.
I walk over to Rex and he doesn’t push me away as I reach for him "Why was there so much noise in there. It sounded like you were talking to someone. Who were you talking to?’’
If I thought something was wrong with him yesterday, then he looks and is acting even worse today.
"I wasn’t talking to anyone. I was using the toilet. It is obvious you don’t trust me and think I am going to do something crazy, so why don’t we just get on with it.’’ he pushes me off him and walks out of the room, stopping in front of the door "I’ll be waiting in the car,’’ he tells me as he walks out.
I am shocked right now.
"What is wrong with him?" Gyles asks me. His eyes dart back and forth.
"I don’t know, he is acting really weird right now.’’
He nods "Rex is not an angry person. He doesn’t do things like this. What could make him act this way and how do you plan on fixing this?’’
He is asking me questions that I don’t know. I don’t know how to fix him—for the first time in my life, my magic can’t help me.
"Something happened before we got to the coven,’’ Gyles blurts.
I furrow my brows as he continues "He disappeared for over an hour. I looked everywhere for him and he was nowhere to be found. I think something happened to him while was away and he couldn’t remember anything.’’
I already knew someone did this to him. I have known since he attacked my mother. There is no way, he did that on his own. Someone needed a scapegoat and they must have known he was involved with me. They must have seen him as an easy target.
"You need to figure out what to do. I am scared that he will try to hurt someone else again,’’ Gyles speaks up "You didn’t see him that night. He wasn’t himself at all.’’
The only thing I can think to do is trying the memory potion. I want to see what happened to him. I have to find out who did this to him.
I just hope there is no block because if there is, I might as well be screwed.
Dark magic is not one to be played with. I might be strong but I don’t think I am strong enough to outsmart whoever is responsible for this. I just hope Rex is strong enough to fight this.
"Come on, let’s go,’’ I tell Gyles and he obeys me by packing the bag he brought with him here. We walk out to the parking lot and Rex is in the car.
He seems a little too eager.
Why does he want to go back to the coven so much?
Makes me not want to take him there.
Fuck, I don’t know what to do.
We get to the car and he looks at us over the back seat. There is a smile on his face "Took you long enough,’’ he mutters playfully.
I keep stealing glances at Gyles because he is the only one that understands how I feel right now. "We had to pack our shit,’’ Gyles tells him with a shrug. He is in the driver’s seat. Rex leans over in between both cars with the smile still on his face. That guilt that he had last night is not there.
There is something dark emanating from him.
I reach for him and in that split second, I see it. I see the blood, I see everything but the one thing I can’t get out of my head is the evil smile on his face as he stands over our bodies.
