Chapter 55: just worried about the Luna
(Still DEREK'S POV)
I took Elena back to my room to wallow in the thoughts about what I've done wrong to her.
Nothing seems to be right for me, first I almost got my Luna to be killed and my brother is willing to kill me for that soon.
I sat silently in the room on my favorite sofa, few meters from the bed as my gaze were locked on her motionless body on the bed.
'what have I done, she shouldn't die... please Elena don't do this to me' my worried eyes now wandering around Elena's body, from her face to her shoulder where the wound is located.
There seem to be a war within me as I took deep breaths tightening my fist and releasing the grip on it again.
My left toe shook with haste while I had my fist beneath my chin to enable me think properly but it wasn't having a positive effect on me.
Elena's silence gave me a panic attack as I brought out my dagger with my visibly shaky hand and began to sharpen my claw, in attempt to ease my anxiety.
Thoughts of Rex flooded my mind, remembering the encounter I had with him yesterday, my heartbeat increased as flashes of his face image came up in my head.
I know a tone of things about Rex and filing his nails when bored or worried is what we tend to have in common, and he knows that about me too.
It hurts me alot to realize that Elena won't be turning to a wolf soon, she haven't shown any sign yet to make it possible to be claimed.
My jawline tightened I'm self pity, preseving that I would loose all that have ever worked for if she eventually died by my bite.
"Seth?" I suddenly asked, my voice husky from anxiety, sounding rhetorically as I sat up alittle to stare blankly into space in silence.
His facial expression when he had learn of Elena's plight yesterday, made me wonder what he now feels for her.... it's confusing because he had never be on her side before.
'He's surely hiding something from me, what would that be Seth?' I thought, reducing the speed with which I was sharpening my already sharp claws.
I picked up my phone, trying to put two or more things together in my head before calling him.
He might also be on his bed now, after getting such a shocker punch from fierce Rex, during the clash better Rex and I yesterday.
'seth is a good friend to have stood by me' I thought dailing those familiar number of his as I stopped shaking my leg to concentrate on what he would say when we are connected.
Seth seems not to be around his phone as I heard it ringing from the other end without a pick up from him.
There was a sudden increase in the worries I was dealing with as my hand held the phone tightly and redialed the numbers again.
'I hope he is ok, I need to know how you fare dear friend ' I said thoughtfully, having my full concentration on the phone.
After a couple of unanswered calls, I decided to change my statics to messages, a sign escaped my lungs as I typed with care.
'Call me when you get my message Seth, just checking on you'
I dropped my phone on the chair immediately the message had a black tick, like the phone was going to explode if I don't do so.
My eyes constantly flashed over the screen of my phone, checking if Seth would reply to my message immediately.
"Hmm.." Elena sounded as she awoke, helping herself sit up on the bed slowly, still in pain but not visibly.
She squealed painfully as she carried her self to the wall side of the bed, not yet aware of my presence.
I rushed to her side on the bed to cup her face with my hand, she seems to be already burning in anger and looked away in slight rage, removing her face from my hand.
"You would be fine my angel" I cried out on reaching her, ensuring her what I wasn't sure of yet.
My eyes went to her shoulder to find the wound close to her neck still fresh, my face darkened and my heart skipped with grief.
"You want me to turn so that you can get a upper hand and control our mate bond" she stated clearly to my surprise but I refused to let it show.
My eyes widened vastly as I chewed on my lips in confusion, my face obviously red from worries.
I wasn't sure of what to say to her and I was shocked to the bone that she knew about my plan all along.
"I'm just worried about you my Luna" I uttered calmly, sounding foolish because she now knows the truth.
She pushed me side mindlessly and stood up, aiming for the door as I followed immediately to stop her.
She waved he hands with force at me in attempt to send my flying across the room but nothing happened, her eyes went close to tears as she stared at her hand.
" The doctor said you were not waking because of your Powers, and I wasn't sure of what to give you so I gave you vervain, mandrake and nightshade" I said carefully, standing in front of her with my arms wide open to stop her from going out.
Her eyes flashed anger and shock and the line on her jawline tightened, the sound of her heartbeat became louder than ever but she remained calm.
"I'm sorry, I'm not going to hurt you again" my voice came out louder than I have expected with full honesty.
She remained quiet as I listened to her racing heartbeat which was exactly how it sounded when I but her.
Elena took few steps shaky backwards moving away from me, still having her gaze fixed on me.
I took a deep breath on seeing her that scared, that was the least state I want to see her in while facing what my impatience caused.
Words failed me as I opened my mouth but nothing came out, guilt was eating me up and the moment and I turned around to think of something to say.
I turned around swiftly to say what had just jumped into my mind, a sharp pain went straight to my head from my stomach.
Elena stabbed my stomach twice with my dagger and was aggressively aimingfor my heart when the door suddenly opened.
I took the opportunity given to me for her to be distracted and knocked her out without hesitation.
