Free Web NovelChapter 279: Chapter fifty 279 The Wildflower Field
Maze
The darkness is no comfort. It hurts like a bitch, and I thought it was supposed to take the pain away when you pass out - which I did almost immediately after getting stabbed. Did not see that coming at all.
"We need to get the poison out before trying to get the wound closed." Someone says far away from where I am at the moment. It feels like a lifetime ago I was stabbed already, but I somehow know it is not. I also know I am not alone in the darkness. Havoc is just within reach, but we do not do the whole sobstory thing. We are going to get better and get back. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
"It just keeps coming. We can’t.. His heart won’t survive..." Another voice says. I know it’s the doctors trying to save me. I think of Kiara. If I don’t survive this she is going to be so pissed. I chuckle in my dark mental prison cell. She is not only going to be pissed though. She is going to find the person who did this and kill them. For some reason I cannot get a clear reading on who did this. I know it’s a person I know and trust and they clearly betrayed us, but then from there. Nothing.
"The Queen is crashing! GET THE CART! Code blue." The Queen? What the fuck do the mean the Queen is crashing? Kiara was not hurt in the fight. I know she wasn’t because I sent her to where the fighting was dying out. How can she be crashing?! Havoc moves from his place in the dark and to where I am sitting. It makes no sense. Are we really dying? The both of us? Fuck! This is serious.
I don’t know how long Havoc and I sit there in silence together. Bits and pieces of conversation getting through, giving me an inclination of what is happening. It doesn’t seem good though.
At some point the darkness turns and I am suddenly in a wildflower field. Someone is walking towards me from the other end. I look to the side to see Havoc walking beside me. He has a sad expression in his serious eyes.
"Did we die?" I ask, and he nods. I sigh. Well fuck. "Is this death?" He shakes his head. We keep walking to the middle of the field where the two other figures are waiting. As I get near I gasp. Kiara?!
"Baby?" I ask, my voice a mere whisper of disbelief. She gives me a sad smile, tears running down her cheeks.
"Hi my love. I have been waiting for you." She says, reaching out a hand. I take it, hoping beyond hope that this is just a trick of my mind. Why is she here?!
"You weren’t hurt. I know you weren’t. How?" She pulls me into her warm embrace, and I bend my head to lean it on her shoulder. We sit down, never letting go of each other. Havoc and Winter lie down as well, close to each other and us.
"I wasn’t hurt, Maze, but you were." Kiara says and I frown. What the hell does that mean? She sees the confusion in my eyes and sighs. "The stab wound you obtained in the fight affected me as well, baby." She says, raising her eyebrows now. I close my eyes, guilt swimming in my gut.
"I’m so..." She put her hand over my mouth. freeweɓnovel.cøm
"This is not your fault. We were betrayed, and we will get revenge. Somehow." I look at her. Who on earth would betray us? Then pictures from the battle over floods my mind. She walks in as if she belongs there. She smiles at me as Havoc lets her walk on. We think she is there to help us. Then she apologizes and.. And stabs us. I curse out loud.
"That fucking BITCH!" I yell and Kiara nods. She places her hand on my cheek.
"The blade must have been enchanted because when you were stabbed I felt like it was me who was stabbed. It burned and stung. At some point I ended here and Winter said we should wait and you would join us soon." I hang my head. I got us into this mess, no matter what she thinks. I should have known that woman would not have been there unless it was on orders from her Master. I’m a fool. Worst of all; I got Kiara dragged into all of this when she was nowhere near the situation.
"HEY! Do not do that!" I look at her, and her eyes are staring back sternly. "Do not take all the blame and put it on yourself. You are not the only one who was fooled. We all were, and I had time to react but I didn’t because neither I nor Winter viewed her as a threat." I bury my head in my mate, not answering.
