Chapter 317: Rex is back

Gyles

I don’t know how much more of this I can watch. The pain, the blood. I didn’t think it would be this graphic and now, I can’t stand it anymore.

"He is hurting him,’’ I grab Blue’s arm in an attempt to get him to stop this brutal attack.

"Let him finish,’’ he tells me, slowly turning to me. I dart my eyes back to Rex and Major is still on him. He is still chanting words that I can’t understand and I want to stop this. I have half a mind to pull him off him but I know that I can’t. I need to let them do this. I can’t be the one to stop the only help we have gotten from anyone in this place.

"I can’t watch this,’’ I cry as I push Blue’s hand off me and walk out of the room. I don’t expect him to follow me. I mean, he needs to be with Rex because I still don’t trust Major, but the second I leave the room, I hear his footsteps behind me.

"Wait," he stops me but I am trying to get away from the scene. To paint a better picture of what is happening in that room. Just imagine a wolf turning, just imagine the process but this time picture someone coming out of their own skin. Like graphically. Whatever Major is chanting, is making Rex’s skin tear open. I don’t know what is happening but he could die from it and we were both just watching it. I couldn’t do anything to ease his pain.

This is all my fault and he is the one suffering.

"I can’t watch that and not do anything. You should go back to him.’’ I turn around to face him. He shakes his head.

"There is nothing we can do to make him feel better. Major is the only one that can help him now, we just have to be there for him.’’

"I don’t want to be there. It is too brutal.’’

He nods "I know,’ he takes a step towards me and I watch him until he is an inch away from me. His eyes bore into mine, they are still red. He hasn’t really had enough rest since we came to the coven. He looks worn out and I can’t even help him too.

"I have a week until Levine is to be executed. If he is still in that body, they will kill him. I can’t let that happen and this is the only solution. I might not trust Major but I know that he is doing this, let’s just use him for now. Make this happen. I need your support...can I get that?’’

A tear drops out of his eyes and instinctually, I reach for his face. He is trying so hard to be strong. I know that the sight in his room must be affecting him as much as it is affecting me but here I am with the theatrics. I shouldn’t have stormed out of the room. I can see that he needs me there with him. "I am sorry for overreacting,’’ I tell him as I wipe the tear from his face.

He manages a faint smile and I don’t take my hand off his face. His eyes close for just a second as he grabs my hand that is on his face "We should go back in there,’’ I suggest.

His smile widens.

We walk back into the room and Major is still on him. I look at Rex and he seems to be getting back to his skin—back to himself. There is blood all over the bed, the clothes he had are torn off his body. He is naked and incomplete. I can’t even think about anything but how much pain he must be going through. Blue squeezes my hand gently and I take steady breaths to control the fear looming within.

Major turns to us and his eyes are still white. He stretches his hands out and we both look at him, waiting for him to tell us what he needs. "I need your blood,’’ he mutters calmly. Rex is still trembling on the bed but now we know he is asking for Blue’s blood. "The blood of a relative,’’ he explains.

"I am not related to him.’’ Blue manages.

He shakes his head "He is your mate. You are a warlock. It will work.’’ He shouts and I can tell he is getting impatient. Blue lets go of my hand and I watch him as he pierces into his skin with his teeth. I notice his werewolf canines as they come out and I watch as the blood starts to gush out. He does this like it is nothing—and I guess it is nothing to him. He is doing this to get Rex back. I would do the same in a heartbeat. Major grabs his hands and pours the blood on Rex. This is some voodoo shit—even for me. I never imagined in all my years on this planet that I would be involved in this kind of situation. The blood drips unto Rex and it looks like it is burning as smoke splatters out of it. Rex’s screams get louder but Major just ignores him.

For the first time, I see him. It starts out with his tiny button nose and his blue eyes. I see the curls of his red hair as they form. I don’t know what Major is doing but it is working and now I don’t want him to stop. I need Rex back and suddenly there is this bright light, telling me that he is close. Blue notices and walks back to me, completely the blood dripping from his wrist. Rex’s voice is the next thing to come back. I hear the timid and husky voice that only he can carry as he screams loudly in pain. I don’t even mind that he is in pain anymore, the fact that he is himself again is all that matters.

Fuck yeah.
