Blood Bound - Chapter 96

>>Maya

I slowly opened my eyes and found myself lying on something super soft. As my eyes adjusted and the vision became less blurry I found out I was lying on a bed.

A bed?

Where did a bed come from?

I sat up and looked around the room. It was a place I had never seen before. The room was big, decorated with simple stuff and had a soft ambiance to it.

The windows rattled and that startled me. I turned my head to look at the sliding window and saw that it was raining outside.

I stood up and walked to the glass.

‘Wow. It seems like a storm.’ I whispered to myself as I looked at the violently shaking trees and the heavy rain.

I sighed and looked at the door on the other side of the room.

Where am I? The lighting in the place was a bit dull.

How did I end up here? In a place I don’t know anything about. I glanced back at the window to see outside and noticed how big the terrace was.

What happened to me?

I tried to remember when a sharp pain entered my brain.

AH!

I remembered the long haired man and mystical creatures all staring at me.

I closed my eyes in anguish when the image of that man’s face appeared in front of my eyes. There was so much pain in his expressions that it made my chest hurt.

I walked back to the bed while I clenched my shirt over my chest.

What is this?

Why do I feel like this?

I can’t calm myself down.

I rubbed my hand over my chest but it didn’t do much.

I looked at the room door and gulped. I can’t just stay here and wait for someone to come in and tell me it all was a prank.

I stood up and walked out of the room.

Outside the room was a hallway and next to the hallway was round shaped glass. I could see the stairs that were leading down through it and I could see another room right across from where I stood.

In the hallway, on the wall, I noticed a long branch which had bell shaped flowers slightly glowing to produce light.

It was quite fascinating to look at but I had no idea what or how it was happening.

I looked to my left and saw that the hallway led to a sitting area. So, I decided to take that path. Soon enough I came to the room that pretty much looked like a lounge. There were white fur sofas there with a wooden table in the center.

I saw a big dream catcher in the center of the wall, next to which were two large sliding windows.

I walked over and noticed someone standing outside with his back towards the window.

I stopped right next to the sliding glass, put my hands on the cold glass and stared at him. It was dark outside mainly because of the dark clouds and how badly it was raining. The glass was blurry with water and it was a bit hard to identify the person standing on the terrace yet still, it did not take me long to find out.

After focusing for a little while I noticed his long silverish white hair soaking with rain and knew it was that same man.

But why is he standing there in the heavy rain?

I wondered but didn’t make any attempt to go out. That’s when his head moved a little and his face turned to a side. He didn’t look back, he just stared down at something that he could see from there.

But, I brought both my hands over my chest when I saw his face.

I couldn’t see him properly yet it felt like he was in anguish, like he was hurting.

My head began to throb again, just like the time I began to feel dizzy and collapsed when I first saw him and the mystical creatures.

Oh God…

I placed my right hand on my head and made a decision.

I have to go talk to him and tell him to send me back immediately.

I hate it here.

I hate this foreign pain.
