Chapter 563: The pick up

Blue

There is a smile on his face.

I know that there is more to this visit that she will let me know. Why is she in my room right now? She must have seen something. She knows something and she is here to let me know that she knows indirectly.

"We are having a welcoming party for you tonight, I just thought to let you know.’’ Analise tells me calmly with that evil smile on her face.

I have a fear that is so strong, it is making me nervous and anxious. "Welcome party? I don’t think I need one. I am fine with the oath ceremony.’’

I don’t want a party because I don’t want the distraction that will come with it. She walks over to me and reaches out "Oh, I insist. Preparations are already on the way. Why don’t you just relax and enjoy this.’’

She is trying to convince me and I don’t know how else I can reject this without it being suspicious. I just need to get Rex out of here "Do I have a choice in this?"

She shakes her head as she walks closer to me. I cannot see her disguise anymore. Somehow after that memory, all I see is who she is and not who she is pretending to be. The man that she murdered to take his face. I don’t know if Badger was ever with her in all the things that she did but I don’t think that he deserved what he got. I don’t think that anyone would deserve this kind of fate.

"Get ready before seven. Everyone will be waiting for you in the party room.’’

This is one thing that will never change about her. The fact that she loves parties. Even when she had bad days, she would always be able to smile at parties. She would forget about her problems, whenever there was a party.

"Okay,’’ I answer her because there is no point arguing with her, it will only make her upset and that is not my plan. I don’t know what she knows but I am sure that she knows something. The fact that she tried spying just says it all.

I don’t even want to get to the bottom of what she knows, I just want to end it all. She walks out of the room and I let out a heavy sigh that I didn’t even know I was holding. I turn to Gyles and he shakes his head "This bitch is crazy. How is she your mother?" he asks.

He is trying to lighten the mood and the smile that sprawls to my face shows that it worked. "So we have to have a plan. This party is the best time to figure shit out. Since I am the guest of honour, I will stay at the party but I need you to look for the room. This should be your opportunity to find the place.’’

He nods in agreement. I turn to Rex and he is watching me too. "You will stay here until Darrien comes. I don’t want you to worry about anything while you are back at the community."

I know he must feel guilty about his decision to leave but I don’t actually blame him. I know that this is something that he must do. There is no point being here when he is not okay. I need him to be safe and the only way he will be safe is if he is back home in the community.

"Okay.’’

**********************

A couple of hours pass by and I hear the sound of the band, playing the same music they always do at these kinds of parties. I left the coven and it feels like I never did. I used to hide in my room at her parties. She always knew that I hated her parties and now she is forcing me to go for this one.

I don’t have a choice but I have.

"Darrien is here,’’ Gyles pipes up from the side of the bed he is seated on. I watch him as he stands up and pulls Rex with him "Come on, let’s get you out of here."

"He is outside the estate. I don’t think he wants to come into the place." Gyles adds.

"I can drive him out of here.’’

He nods "I am coming with you."

He grabs his bag from the floor and we walk out of the house and to the compound. "I am sorry about this,’’ Rex mutters as we enter the car. I don’t want him to apologize because I don’t think he did anything wrong but it seems like accepting his apology will make him feel better.

"Yeah, just get home safely and wait for us. We will come to you,’’ I manage a smile even though I am scared out of my wits.

I don’t know what to expect at this party. I am terrified because she is always one step ahead of every decision I make. I know she has a plan, she wants to destroy me but I need to destroy her first.

"Promise you will come back home?’’

I grab his hand in mine as the words leave his lips. I will never blame him for leaving this place. I know what this place can do to someone and he is just not strong enough to hold it all in and act like he is okay and that is completely fine.

"I promise."

I drive us out of the estate and I see Darrien’s car parked by the side of the road. I park the car next to his and he gets down from his. He is dressed in a pair of black slacks and a plain tee shirt. He has on ray ban glasses and a pair of sneakers.

We all walk over to him and he reaches for the bag in Gyles’s grip "I think you all should come with me and ex this joint but Alanis said I am not allowed to tell you how I feel.’’

I watch him as he tosses the bag into the car "Hello Darrien.’’ Give it to Darrien to say how he feels. I wish I could say fuck it to this place and just leave as he said but I know that Gyles will not agree to it and I need to fix things here because as long as she is alive, I will never be safe.
