Chapter 584: The host

Darrien

There is shock in her eyes.

I don’t know if she knows who she is but the look on her face is giving me major suspicions right now.

"Analise is dead,’’ she manages in disbelief.

"Yes, in the eyes of everyone, she is dead but I know otherwise. She is still alive, and has taken over someone else’s body."

She runs her fingers through her hair and I watch her pace back and forth. She is as bright as the stars in this state she is. Shining in the dark shed but right now, all I can focus on is getting her to help us.

"I don’t mess with witches, I like to stay on my own.’’ she looks up at me finally, her eyes wide.

"I know, I have no one else to ask. You are the only one that can help me right now.’’

"Why, what have you gotten yourself into Darrien? Why do you keep messing with the wrong people?"

I have been asking myself that question since I got here. This is all Alanis’s fault. He is the one that roped me into this and now I have to stay till the end. I can’t just leave them here, knowing that they can’t handle this on their own. The person that they are dealing with is way stronger than them. From what I have seen, she is also ruthless.

"That is beside the point Amber, I know this is too much of an ask but you also know that I wouldn’t be asking you if I wasn’t so desperate."

I see the pain in her eyes. I don’t mean to be so cold but I also need to be very honest with her. I can’t let her think that there is hope for us. Our story ended a long time ago and I don’t want to revisit it. I don’t even want to even think about that time.

I don’t ever want to revisit that part of my story.

"As you did the last time. It seems like as each day passes by, you are needing me more and more,’’ she raises a brow as those words leave her lips.

It is one thing to call her and it is another thing for her to be gloating about it. I know that I can’t push her away because she is right, I actually do need her.

"I know and I don’t want to give you the wrong idea. I know this is a lot to ask for but I need you to help me. With all the things that have happened between us, I know that there is still a part of you that cares about me. A part of you that sees me as a friend."

"A friend?’’ she asks me.

I don’t know if me pushing for this friendship that doesn’t exist is the best thing but I am desperate and this is all I have to offer her.

"Yes, can we move past everything that has happened?"

She looks at me, her eyes never leaving my face. There was a time when her stare would do things to me. I always knew that I would eventually find my link but with Amber, things were different. There was chemistry and excitement. Through all the good and bad, we had memories.

Memories that I completely forgot.

"Why do you think I am the one that can help you?’’ she asks finally and I see the look of defeat in her eyes.

"Because she is just like you.’’

She raises a brow "Are you comparing me to the chief of this coven. Less you forget, I have been on my own for years now." she reminds me even though I already know that.

Amber is a loner and there are reasons for that.

"That’s not what I meant. The immortality that you have, the one that has kept you so young and alive all these years. She has the same thing."

"I know the kind of magic Analise is playing with. Everyone in this world knows and it is not one that we like to even involve ourselves with. This is a big ask Darrien, getting me involved could lead to my demise."

I take a deep breath as she continues "But, I will help you. I will do what I can to get you out of this mess even though I don’t even know how you got here in the first place."

She takes a step towards me and my eyes dart to Rex, he is watching us attentively. There is nothing for him to say.

"I can only tell you what to do as I am not here but you have to listen to me very carefully.’’ She breathes out calmly.

I nod as she places a hand on my cheek. I feel a slight tingle—not the kind I feel when Jabi touches me. More of an electrical shock. Maybe it is all the magic that she is harnessing right now. Her hands stay on my cheek as she moves even closer to me until her lips are just slightly brushing against my left ear.

"There is one of her that will always be mortal, all you have to do is find that one. The one that she has kept hidden. Once you kill her real host, you kill all the other ones that exist will die,’’ she whispers into my ear.

I have no clue how we are supposed to even find what she is talking about "What do you mean, how do we find it?’’

She pulls away from me slightly but her eyes remain fixed to mine. They bore deep into mine. My hands tremble because she is doing so much for me and she doesn’t have to. She doesn’t have to help me but here she is.

Doing all this because of a past that I once let go of.

"The real Analise is dead, why not check her grave. There might be more to it than you know.’’ she pulls away from me completely and this time she vanishes instantly.

Deep down, I know that she has given me the answer we need.

This time, we might just be one step ahead of that woman.
