During the process of my punishment, I wasn’t allowed to leave the house so seeing Eric was a bit difficult and the only way I would be able to see him it’s by sneaking out of the house using my shadow ability as my only shield, which I did, I would wait for 7pm or sometimes 8pm then I would sneak out so I could be able to see Eric, once I am at the hospital I would meet the doctors or nurses in charge of his case to tell me about his health and to check if there is any complications or not, once I am done assuring that he is okay, I would sneak into his room to see him when his dad wasn’t around. I didn’t want his dad to see me to ask me questions about the his attacker or for him to thank me for saving his son’s life, I don’t need his thank you all I want is for him to be awake so I can resume my daily activities with him.
Finally my punishment was over and everything taken from me by my dad were handed over to me by my his men, he couldn’t even come to say hi to me during these three days or to even asked how I was fairing, well I am used to his stupid attitude and then saying goodbye to them. I head out straight to the hospital promising my self never ever to return back home unless it’s urgent or if mum calls me back home, getting tot he hospital the nurse informed me that Eric’s dad was around, i didn’t want to see him so I guess I have to come back later at night when he normally goes out for eating or to go home to get something. Returning to my room, I paced to and fro, I have been trying all my best to know more or find out the where about of those vampires who attacked Eric, and what was their mission or aim in killing Eric and who the f**k sent them after my prey. Because I was angry that night I lost controller and killed all of them, I wasn’t able to save one and capture him, torturing him till he is able to spill the man or woman behind the attack, now I don’t know who is after Eric and what they want, Eric isn’t safe, if I wasn’t there to save him that vampire would have killed or if he had left him alone the wolf’s bane in his system would have done justice to his death. I can’t bear to loose him from my life, not yet and not now until I am able to cut the ties of whatever is attracting me to him, when I know I am free from that finally, what ever happens to him won’t be any of my f*****g business, he would just be a piece of rag to trample upon but for now his safty first matters a lot to me. The sound of the alarm from my phone startled me bringing me back to reality and checking the time it was 8pm , exactly the time his dad would be going home to get his things for tomorrow’s work. I hurriedly left my room, moving fast so that I can spend the next 30 minutes alone with him before his dad gets back
I greeted the nurses and compelled them to forget ever seeing me , or writing my name down for anything. That I never came by nor stopped by to check up on him and with that I headed straight to his room, walking up to his bed, he was sound asleep, sleeping peacefully like he had no issues or nothing was happening in his life. Then he flinched, the nightmares they are back again
“please don’t kill me, please. I have things I have to do so I need to be alive, please for my mum and Nick. So please don’t kill me pleassse” he screamed out loud as he opened his eyes staring straight at me
“ Ryan “ He said with a weak voice
“ hey Eric, are you okay?” I asked him as he tried to sit up right
“ ouch, it hurts” he said while holding his stomach where he was stabbed “ how am I still alive?”
“ I guess luck or your moon goddess was on your side, I happened to have a meeting at the area you were attacked and almost got killed. Just say your night Knight in shinning armour saved your ass” I said laughing hard
“Haha haha, ouch. Don’t make me laugh it hurts. Why am I not healing!” He asked me
“ I don’t know, the doctor said you and your wolf took in a lot of wolf’s bane into your system. That both of you are still weak, giving you guys time, you will heal completely and back on ur feet and back to normal to your daily activities “ I told him
“ oh okay I see, what day is it ?” He asked me
“ today is Thursday, you have been out for three days , your weak ass couldn’t handle a little beating ” I teased him
“ stop it Ryan, don’t tease me I am a patient “ he said
“ truth I forgot, where you having nightmares before you woke up?” I asked him “ and what do you have to do for your mum “
“ nothing Ryan, forget about everything you saw and hear, and pretend you didn’t hear anything. It was just a dream and nothing more “ he said to me
“ you know it’s just not a dream, it’s a repeated occurrence and you know it that it’s not just a one time thing, I have seen you having nightmares and waking up sweating and panting hard for the past two weeks” opps I covered my mouth but too late it has slipped out of my mouth before I could stop it.
“ repeated occurrences?!! , just how did you know about about my nightmares?. Have you been following me about?, how long have you been following and monitoring me . Oh so you are the shadow I have been seeing in my room and I thought for weeks I have been loosing my mind and taking pills which doesn’t work because I am a f*****g werewolf. Now rephrase your answer about how you rescued me because you were following me and you weren’t having any damn meeting” he said
“ Eric pls calm down you are hurt” I said
“ don’t tell me if I am hurt or not, for what reason have you been spying on me for?, you bullying me isn’t enough already, so you now decided to monitor my every move and follow me around. Really Ryan “ he yelled at me
“ will you calm down and stop yelling, I didn’t follow you around to bully your or know any thing about you so that I can used it in bullying you hell no. I got attracted to you and you were like a magnet pulling me to you and I have no choice but to be pulled along, I tried resisting it but I couldn’t. If I hadn’t followed you and know your every move, you would have been dead by now. So you should be thanking me for spying on you and saving your ass” I yelled back at him
“ I should be thanking you for spying at me, you asshole, f**k you to hell “ he said “ ouch it hurts, you are making me hurt, yelling at you hurts more, even without you laying your hands on me or bullying me , you still find a way to hurt me. You and your stupid kind” he said
“ my stupid kind and I, fine my kind might have do something awful to you but it’s not everyone , not everyone of my kind is bad and everything like you paint them out to be and I am an example of the good one” I told him pointing to my self
“ you are as bad as them, even more than them . Beast ” he said throwing the harsh words on me as I clenched my fist, I want to hit him so hard and make him come back to his senses. When the alarm on my phone rang again, I knew I have 5 more minutes before his dad arrives and I can’t let him have an idea that I came visiting his son, his dad knowing of my appearance, I need to wipe everything off his memory before he rants me out to his dad that I have been following him every where he goes to, that might end me up on his dad’s black list
“ now listen here young man “I said pinning him down to the bed while he tried to free him self from my hold “ now Eric look into my eyes “ which he did “ Eric your won’t remember anything of the attack, you won’t have nightmares of the attack anymore, forget everything about the attacked. Forget you saw me this evening and forget about our conversation also. Now go back to sleep and rest for another 3 days before you wake up, have some rest of mind and heal fast “ I told him while compelling him and he obeyed me with a nod as he fell asleep, making sure I covered him properly so he won’t catch a cold I whispered something to ears “ don’t worry, you keep all your strength and heal your self, I promise to get and punish who ever did this to you and I am truly sorry for coming late to rescue you. I promised next time I will be at your side to protect you. We can be friends from now on if only you will accept me” I said placing a kiss on his forehead before leaving the hospital
