Omega Bound (Never Ending Darkness) novel Chapter 168

Something Bad Happened, Didn’t It?

Ayla

I knew it. Deep down, I did, but I needed to hear it.

Monica’s location was on the dance floor.

Thane’s closing of the bond.

Raven’s silence.

Monica’s phone was out of order.

The blood on Thane’s clothing.

She was gone. My first real friend here was gone.

I take a step back as Thane reaches for me.

“Ayla..” Thane’s voice is quiet, hesitant. He must see on the outside what is happening on the outside.

My breathing becomes hard and fast.

My chest hurts.

Fear sets in

My head is dizzy.

My heart is racing.

Why am I shaking? Why am I so cold?

My vision flickers.

Thane’s voice goes in and out. Is Cyrus here? Who is he talking to?

I’m across the room. How did I get across the room?

I’m nauseated and sweating profusely.

Monica’s gone and she isn’t coming back.

Monica’s gone and she isn’t coming back.

“Monica’s gone and she isn’t coming back.”

I’m confused

I already know this.

Where did

she

They took her.

I am frantically shaking my head. It doesn’t clear my vision.

There’s a noise behind me.

I whirl and stumble.

Something Bad Happened. Didn’t

Thane’s here, Thane’s here. It’s okay. He’s here.

No…no he isn’t supposed to be here. Tessa said her brother was at home with her parents.

Why isn’t he home with his parents?

Where is Tessa Where is Monica…?

1 gag on the stomach acid filling my mouth,

1 am sobbing. My chest hurts.

There is wailing.

There can’t be wailing. Tessa didn’t cry.

“Tessa didn’t cry. She fought the whole way…she didn’t…she didn’t cry. She didn’t cry.”

“Ayla…what?…. What? Tessa? Tessa?…You mean my sister? What Ayla? My sister? What about my sister?”

My head is pounding-

My chest is throbbing.

I can’t get enough air.

I’m losing my mind

“ARAMANA PLEASE!”

She’s

my wolf.

She’s my wolf.

“Don’t hurt her….Don’t hurt my w

my wolf.”

The corner is dark..

So is the other one.

I heard whispers. I heard it. I can hear it.

“Who said that?”

“Who said what?” Somebody is repeating what I am saying. Am I echoing?

My body is tight.

Why can’t

* I lift my arms?

Something is heavy.

Where is Thune?

I’m drowning.

I can’t breathe.

“Where is Monica? Somebody is asking. Are they asking me?

*Monica’s dead. Monica’s dead. Didn’t you hear me?”.

Maybe they will quit as

asking.

Something Bad Happened. Didn’t I?

Tessa is dead.

My family is dead.

Monica is dead.

Why are they all dead?

“Why is everybody dead? Who’s dead? Everybody. They’re all dead.”

I don’t want die.

‘t want to die.

I don’t

I have a pup. I can’t die.

Please help me.

Conversations are happening around me. They all sound like me.

“Ayla.. little wolf, please.”

Somebody is crying loudly.

Somebody is cursing.

A she–wolf is saying my name.

right here. I’m right here.

I’m right

My body is heavy.

I’m trying to move but I can’t.

Somebody is holding me.

Somebody’s hands are on me.

Don’t touch me.

Don’t touch me…

You have no right to touch me.

You can’t touch me.

Let go of me.

I can feel my mental barrier pounding.

I don’t want to die.

“I’m not leaving her. He isn’t leaving

Why can’t I move?

Where is Monica?

I won’t let them take me.

“She’s amping up again!” Somebody is yelling.

They are trying to take me again.

They’re going to pay.

They’re going to pay.
