When people complain about seeing stars, I never believed. Not until I saw mine. There was this low but yet pitch noise coming directly from my brain. It was as if a siren was blown inside my head.
Damn! That hurts like shit.
Quickly staggering around to maintain my balance, I held my forehead. Great! I wasn’t bleeding even when it seems as if I would bleed to death.
Looking at my palm while I frequently touch my head, I wanted to make sure I was not bleeding even though I could taste blood.
Whose blood is this if I am not bleeding? Oh, yea! I broke my lips. Perfect.
Looking up to see a mean and scared Rex, I licked the blood off my lips. The blood taste different, totally different and I had to spit on my palm on the blood and smell it.
“You don’t fvcking have to bite your mate!” Rex yelled, “You don’t fvcking have to!”.
Was that so? So he would hurt me, hit me, make me bleed and I won’t just bite him for once!
My eyes moved to his left palm which he held down. Frankly, I don’t get why it seemed so strange. My eyes widened in surprise as the bite wound refused to heal. Instead, the blood dripped slowly on the floor, making the room soon filled with the magnetic smell of my Mate’s blood.
“Damn you, Rain”.
“Damn me?” I growled, “You are cheating on me and still hit me!” I cried.
With tears streaming down my cheeks, I grunted. That wasn’t what I wanted to do but who cares? The mate I thought looked mean and scared some seconds ago is staring at me with nothing but hate.
“I don’t understand you talking about cheat when you are originally a cheat”.
Hearing his hurtful allegations, I froze. It was as if my heart stopped beating for a while and my head got bigger. Walking away from him as he took a few steps closer, all I see was nothing but hate.
Even when it’s obvious, Ashina still wouldn’t want to believe it. Not when she was pathetically whimpering for his care.
Open your eyes, Ashina!
She could see that hate, that anger, that unnecessary rage, and yet she did nothing. She refused to help me shift.
“I want to go back” I sniffed.
Calmly, Rex smiled.
He looked around as if checking if someone else is watching. He looked back at me with his wounded palm to my face.
“You see this?” He asked, “You fucking know how dang…” He paused.
It was just as if he suddenly lost his sense of speech as he stared blankly at me. Letting his hand drop, Rex walked away from me growling softly.
He walked toward the door and twisted the handle. After waiting for a few seconds, he took a step back and stared at me.
“You want to go back to sucking his cock?” He growls louder “You want to go back so you would let them do all manner of rubbish to you? Damn it Rain, you are shameless”.
Ouch! Should I be worried?
My mate didn’t call me shameless and walked out the room as if nothing happened. Rex didn’t just accuse me of sucking someone’s cock and walk away as If he was right to call me what I wasn’t.
The heck?!
How did he even open the door without a key? How did he just walk there hold it and twist it open as if it had being open whereby I have tried opening it as if my life depends on it.
This has to be a test, right?
I was sure I didn’t hear the door lock immediately after he walk out. I was certain I didn’t see him with any key.
“He can’t be watching” I whispered as I walked towards the door “I am sure he can’t be”.
Reaching the door, I slowly reached out to the handle and twisted it. It didn’t move, not at all.
Asshole! No!!
I wanted to scream and cuss but it doesn’t seem like it would help.
“Please open” I sniffed “Please open”.
This has to be evil!
Locking someone in here without food, fresh air, water, and too much light seem evil. I know I made a mistake by rejecting the meal given to me all this while but I haven’t eaten anything since yesterday and if I wasn’t mistaken, this should be evening too.
My stomach hurts from the act of food but I know I can still go a or more without eating.
I want to get out of this room and I know the moment I do, I am leaving this park for good. He doesn’t want me after all, I can not get the reason why he would want to still be here if he doesn’t want me.
‘You dare not reject me, Rain’ I remember his voice in my head.
‘You dare not fucking Reject me you little sicko!’.
This can’t be happening?
Rex doesn’t want to hear me say anything close to me rejecting him and yet he wants to keep me? He just hate me! Just does not want anything like me breaking it with him.
Glaring at my stomach whole it rumbled noisily, I hissed. Damn my stomach hurts and have to leave this place. The more I stay, the more I tend to have this tendency to just want to sneak up to Rex and kill him.
‘Where is that hate coming from?’.
What?
Was that Ashina coming out of her coward shell? What the heck was she interfering in my business anyway.
Choosing to ignore her, I closed my fist and began to bang at the door.
“Let me out” I yelled “Someone let me out!!!”.
Banging harder, I screamed while I still yelled for someone to open the door. To my point of view, I see there was nothing I can do to make Rex open the door so I thought about pushing it down.
Walking six meters away from the door, I bent and stared at the door.
‘Mate would be mad if he finds out what you are planning to do’ Ashina said.
Fuck you, Ashina!
Again, I choose to ignore her. Getting my long greasy black hair tied up in a messy bun, I angrily blew stray hair off my face.
‘Rain you are doing the wrong thing!’.
Rushing as fast as I could, I dashed to the door with my side and clashed on it. No difference, no change, nothing at all but I continue.
Doing it for the fifth time, I become weak. My arms hurt, and my head pounded as my eyes spun but I can not stop. I want to make sure I get out from her, I can keep letting people push me around even if he is my mate.
Collapsing on the door, I held my chest as I began to pant heavily.
“My head hurts” I cried.
My inside began to turn and I felt like I would throw up any moment but there was nothing in my stomach. I can vouch that if I try to throw up I would definitely pour out my intestine.
Struggling to get to my feet again became the most difficult thing for me as I slowly sat on the floor and began to cry. My head hurts, my stomach hurts, and the only thing I could do is lay on the floor while I slowly black out.
That pain sting like a bee, followed by the strong smell of spirit. I can’t tell if it’s because I hate being in bright areas but the place seems like the way to the afterlife. I have heard lots of stories about the after life and I can tell one thing I hear often is the brightness.
The voices around me made me aware of them and I began to sniff the area. Three different smell, two familiar and one strange and the stinging pain on my arm. I stir, making the people around me know that I am awake would make them stop hurting me.
“Alaric, she is up”.
Oh save me that rubbish. Wasn’t he expecting to wake up?
That annoying voice! Damn! The last person I want to see now is Rex. Even when his smell seems to bow become so strong that I felt Ashina stir in me, I would happily let him know that I don’t give a damn about him.
I still wanted to reject him. To the. Go somewhere very far into the forest and have no one disturb me for the rest of my life.
I would life my life to the fullest. Enjoy my hunger, my loneliness, my pain and my fear.
Pretending to still be sleeping while I can now feel presence around me, I made sure to remain still. Although I could feel their heat warm around me, especially at both sides of my arm.
I don’t want this.
