Chapter 483: Takeover

Jabi

His screams in my head make me recoil on the ground. I am still in my wolf form, to Darrien, I must look hurt but I am just terrified.

"Baby, what is wrong?’’ he asks immediately, his hands reaching for my fur. I don’t know how to tell him that Lenny is alive. We have had this doubt in our minds. Deep down, I knew that something was not right. I knew there was a chance that Lenny was still alive and this just proves it all.

I close my eyes and my wolf creeps back inside me and I come out. I am naked and it is cold as I open my eyes but Darrien is looking at me with concern filled eyes. I reach for him and he pulls me up into his arms and lifts me off the ground. His body engulfs me as I try to take steady breaths to calm myself down.

I have to tell him what happened but I am so worried that this will make him tense again. Things were just going good again and now, Lenny is back into our lives. I don’t know how to explain it to him properly.

I don’t know how to say this properly. I don’t even know the words to say it.

I am so scared.

I don’t know what to do. I don’t know how to tell him that we were wrong. He leads me back to the house but he doesn’t say anything. I hold him tightly for fear of Lenny crawling back to my mind. I don’t even know how it was possible in the first place. It felt like a mind link but how is that even possible?

How did he get into my mind?

Once inside the house, he places me on the couch and walks into the room. I see him as he comes back into the living room with clothes in his grip. His eyes are fixed on me and I know that he wants to ask me what happened.

"He came into my mind,’’ I tell him immediately as I collect the shirt from him. His eyes open wide from the shock of my words.

"How are you sure it was him?’’ he is trying to fish for hope. Something else that would prove that this is not Lenny’s handwork. "It was Lenny’s voice, he wanted me to know that he was the one,’’ I tell him. I exhale and close my eyes. I almost need to just let my head fall back on the couch and rest.

Darrien’s eyes widen in shock and disbelief.

"What are you saying?’’

I feel my head could fall off and it is just plain old exhaustion that comes through me.

"He said I was his." As I say those words, I feel like shit. I didn’t want to have to say this to Darrien. I didn’t want him to worry but I can’t keep this from him. "He’s come back,’’ I say and tears start streaming down my face.

"You are sure?" he asks. I nod. I can’t read his face.

"He told me that he would never let me go. He said that I was his. I am so sure that it was him.’’

I tell him.

Darrien comes closer to me and leans in. He leans over me and I can feel his heartbeat.

"Did he say anything else?" he asks me. I shake my head. He takes this all in, his face is almost a mask of shock.

"Baby, I am sorry.’’ He says. I see his tear fall down. This is the first time I have ever seen Darrien cry. Granted, he is not crying, I mean, it is just a tear but I know that he is scared and I have never seen him like this.

"We are safe here, I just need to go and talk to Beau again,’’ he stands up from the couch. It is a good thing I am not feeling so strong right now because I would have been on my feet in an attempt to stop him from leaving me.

He stops before he gets to the door "I need you to stay here, can you promise me that you won’t leave the house.’

I nod. He opens the door and leaves. I am sitting on the couch, my head falls back and my eyes are closed. I can’t even get to the point to feel sorry for myself, I feel like crap. I am worried for Darrien and we have a lot to deal with. He might say that this is not my fault but I feel like it is.

I know that it is.

I close my eyes because as each second passes by, I feel even weaker. I don’t know what Lenny did to me but somehow, it feels like whatever he did is taking its toll on me. The more I try to keep my eyes open, the harder it is. I am tired.

I just want to be asleep.

Maybe I will feel better if I do. I hear the door open slowly and I manage to squint my eyes open. Everywhere is blurry, almost like I can’t see properly. "Darrien,’’ I manage to say in a low whisper. I try to sit up but I can’t. Maybe something is wrong with me. I open my eyes wider and the person in front of me is not Darrien. My vision clears up as the figure crouches over me in front of the couch. There is a smile on his face. The kind of smile that terrifies me. I can’t move. I hang in fear of what’s to come.

"Hello, Jabi,’’ he says gently as he comes closer to me. He reaches out a hand to touch my face. I flinch. I feel like I have been punched. I try to move but my limbs feel heavy. I can’t move.

"Don’t touch me,’’ I beg him because I can’t move right now.

He places his hand down and takes a deep breath "I am not here to hurt you. I will never hurt you,’’ he breathes out the words but I don’t believe him.

"Please,’’ I beg him desperately because he has the upper hand right now. I want to scream for Darrien but I feel paralyzed.

He did something to me.

"I am taking you with me, I will love you as much as he did,’’ he reaches for me and I can’t fight him. I don’t have the energy too.

NO.
