Chapter 473: Uncertainty

Darrien

We get to the mansion and I walk into the house with his arm in mine. He is very quiet. The car ride was quiet. I am so angry and right now, this is the angriest I have ever been. My anger is not directed at Jabi because this is not his fault. It is my fault. From the beginning, I didn’t trust the guy but I let him into our lives.

"I am sorry,’’ he cries, stopping me in front of the door. I turn to him and he looks at me and I see the most sorrowful look on his face.

I can’t help but give him a hug.

"I am sorry. I did not mean to do this to us. This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have gone back to school. We were happy and now I have messed things up.’’ he cries in my arms and this just makes me angrier because this is not his fault. He has a right to want a life. He has a right to want to go to school, he has a right to do whatever the fuck he wants. I know that Lenny befriended him intentionally. I know that it wasn’t just a coincidence and he doesn’t need to apologize for that.

"This is not your fault, I don’t want to hear an apologize for this. We will figure this out. I promise you.’ My hand rubs the back of his head as I try to comfort him. He wraps his arms around my waist and I hold him tight. I am so scared, I don’t want anything to happen to him.

"Come on, let’s go inside."

Eligio can find out whatever it is that happened to him while he was alone with that bastard. The minute we walk into the house, Elu comes down from the stairs. A smile sprawls on her face as she sees us.

"What a pleasant surprise,’’ she mutters as she walks over to use and reaches for Jabi "Hey cutie,’’ she grabs his hands in hers. Elu has always been fond of Jabi.

"How are you?’’ she asks, bending down to hug him.

"I am fine,’’ he responds politely. Jabi is still not comfortable around my family members. He is still in his shell when surrounded by vampires, so I completely understand why his response will be shy.

"You don’t look fine, you are very pale,’’ she notices with a raised brow.

"Where is Eligio?’ I ask her because that is what is important right now.

"He’s out, did you call him?’’

I shake my head because I didn’t think to call him "When do you think he will be back?’’ I question already getting impatient.

My mind is in a frenzy because of all the shit that is happening and I don’t know how long I can handle not knowing. Something happened to Jabi and he doesn’t remember. I just don’t want to be too slow about everything that happened and then end up regretting it.

"He went out with some of his friends from back in the day. He might not be back in a while."

I groan out in frustration, grabbing my phone from my pocket "Wait for me in the living room,’’ I tell Jabi, who just looks at me sadly. His eyes are welling up again. It looks like he is about to cry again.

I don’t want him to cry.

I should be able to protect him and right now, I don’t know what to protect him from. I don’t know what Lenny did to him. How do I fix what I don’t know?

I just want to kill the motherfucker, maybe if he is dead, he can’t hurt my baby.

I watch him walk to the door that leads to the living room and Elu follows him, with her arms over his. I dial Eligio’s number and he answers on the first ring.

"Darrien calling me, what is the emergency,’’ he voices out into the phone.

I roll my eyes because even till now, I don’t want to need anyone. I don’t want to have to ask him for this favor because I don’t like being indebted to people but now, I have to and he is going to rub it in.

"Where are you?’’ I am not even going to bother with preliminaries. I am so bothered and I don’t know how to handle all this shit.

"Out, what is wrong?’’

"When will you be back, if you can come back home right now, I need you to do that.’’ I stomp my foot on the ground in frustration.

I hate this feeling.

Right now, I feel useless.

"You have to tell me what is wrong first. You can’t just command me to come home and expect me to leave everything I am doing and do that.’’

I sigh, running my fingers through my hair in frustration "Just come home, please. It is urgent and I need your help,’’ I reduce my voice and soften the tone because I need him. He would be doing me a favor by coming home and I don’t want to be my usual angry self. I need to calm down or else I will just end up aggravating him.

"Okay, give me thirty minutes." he ends the call before I can respond to him and I look at the phone in my grip. My hands are shaking, my heart is racing.

Deep down, I know that there is a threat but I don’t know what it is. The one thing I can’t handle is not knowing and that is what is happening to me right now.

I don’t know how to protect him.

I don’t know how to be his Alpha right now.

I walk in the direction of the living room and I hear his murmurs with Elu. Once in front of the door to the room. I see them. Elu has a smile on her face as they talk. Jabi is looking at her but he is expressionless.

He looks up at me and slowly, his lips turn up.

I just need to figure this out and then everything will be okay.
