Chapter 25 His Brutal Bite
Chapter 25 His Brutal Bite
I stared at James in shock and bewilderment as he continued to tell me about Jonathan. "He isn't even explaining to me why he lied to you, but he genuinely loves you, Mia. He has been living like a dead soul for the past two months. He needs you, and Mia, only you can help him.”
'How come I didn't think of Jonathan? I was so self-centred that I blamed and despised him for abandoning me and lying to me. I never tried to contact him or ask him why he abandoned me.' I closed my eyes and mentally chastised myself because my love was suffering more than I was, and it was all my fault.
"James, I need to talk to him. Please take me to him.” I was dying to meet Jonathan, so I frantically begged James. I hadn't seen him in two months. For me, living without him was like living without a heart.
My desire to meet him grew, even more, stronger after knowing that he needed me.
“Okay, let’s go.” As he nodded, we walked out of the college.
'What possibly be the reason he is causing both of us to suffer?' I wondered as I sat inside James’s car. I was both eager and terrified to find out why.
***
As James’s car came to a halt in front of Jonathan's house, my heartbeat quickened in fright. I could sense the danger, but I was willing to risk everything to meet Jonathan.
His house was smack dab in the middle of the jungle. He was mysterious in every way.
I sensed his presence as soon as we entered the house. I was finally going to meet him after two months, which felt like two ages to me, but I was worried about him and even afraid because I didn't know if he was going to accept me or not.
James pointed to Jonathan's room, which was upstairs, and I nodded at him and turned my gaze to the closed door of his room. My heartbeat was accelerating with each passing second, and I had no idea why my sixth sense was warning me about the danger in this house.
I took slow steps as I made my way to the stairs. "All the best, Mia." Listening to James’s words, I came to a halt and turned to face him, and he continued to speak. "I'm hoping you'll be able to persuade Jonathan." I flashed him a faint smile and hurried upstairs because the wait was driving me insane.
I took a deep breath and grasped the doorknob before pulling the door open. As I stepped into the dark and completely messed up room, my breath became heavy.
My eyes searched frantically for him and eventually fell on him, but I felt a stinging ache in my heart and tears welled up in my eyes as I saw him in a miserable state. He was lying still on the floor, like a lifeless soul.
I walked up to the light switch and turned it on. "Why did you come here?" I spun around as soon as I heard his stern voice.
I gasped and my heart almost stopped beating when I saw him in the light because his condition was the worst; his entire body was red. It wrung my heart, and tears began to flow down my cheeks automatically.
‘Why? Why is he torturing himself?' I pondered, my sorrowful gaze fixed on him.
His eyes were closed, and he was still lying on the floor. I lumbered towards him while shedding silent tears. I saw him after two months, and his condition was worse. After witnessing his suffering, my heart began to cry like a baby. All I wanted was to relieve his suffering.
"Just leave, Mia." He spoke in a low voice as I bent down to touch him. He was lying on the floor with his hand over his eyes. His words deeply affected me; I came to meet him after two months and he was urging me to leave without even looking at me.
I had no idea why he was doing this to me, but I had made up my mind that I would not leave until I knew the truth.
I took a deep breath to compose myself, and as I touched his blazing hot, fully red body, a sob escaped from my mouth because I couldn't control my emotions any more.
'He is a vampire, but he is blazing hot rather than cold.' My heart wrenched as I thought.
Suddenly, he rose from the floor and pulled me to him by grabbing my arms with a swift motion. “Just go away, Mia. Just go away." As he bawled at me with outrage, I winced in fright; he had previously yelled at me before, but never in this manner. I just stared at him, greatly shocked.
He dragged me to the door within a second before I could say something.
I looked at him with sorrowful eyes. His canine teeth were enlarged, his eyes were blazing red, and the area around them was black. I could vividly see immense anger in his eyes.
I couldn't figure out why I couldn't see genuine emotion in his eyes after our breakup night. His eyes had never lied to me before, but now they were also lying to me.
"I won't go until you tell me the truth, Jonathan." I confronted him with full confidence because I was certain he was merely scaring me again, completely unaware that I was mistaken this time.
"Just go... just fucking go away from here." He threw me out of his room and slammed the door shut, yelling.
My forehead hit the floor as I fell. His behaviour was hurting me more than the physical pain. I had no idea why he had started acting like a monster again.
My sorrowful eyes, which were welling up with tears, were fixed on the door of his room. I touched my wounded forehead and saw the blood stain on my hand while shedding tears.
I shifted my gaze from my hand to the door of his room and sobbed with strong uncontrollable emotions while lying on the floor.
James helped me with making me stand up on my feet. "Why is he doing this with me and himself?" As I questioned him in a dejected tone, he shook his head; he was equally clueless as I was.
"Mia, I'm in a state of shock because he has never treated anyone this way in a hundred years. Without a doubt, he is concealing something very important from us-“
We were drawn to the sounds coming from Jonathan's room. He was hitting on the door. We exchanged shocked looks before darting to the door.
"Jonathan, what happened? Open the door." James asked while trying to open the door, and I snivelled uncontrollably. I was weakening because I was shocked, worried, heartbroken, confused, and in excruciating pain.
As the door suddenly burst open, Jonathan's canine teeth grew larger, and he glared at the wound on my forehead with eyes full of hunger. Despite being a little scared by his icy gaze, I didn't budge and just stared into his eyes.
"Jonathan, no." As James shouted, my brows narrowed in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
"Why are you not understanding, Mia? I'm asking you to leave because I don't want to cause you any harm." Jonathan yelled again, this time closing his eyes; it seemed as though he was battling with himself.
'My love is in so much pain, and I was blaming him for bringing me misery. Now I have to do something.’
“Don't push me, Jonathan; I beg you. You and I share a special bond, and I know it. Why are you doing this? Please tell me. We will fight together. The things you're doing are wrong because they are causing us pain.” I begged, wrapping my arms around him and burying my face in his chest. I was making every effort to persuade him to tell me everything.
I was completely taken aback by what happened next.
‘Is he going to bite me?’ I questioned myself as I felt his teeth close to my neck, but James pushed him away with full force before he could bite me.
"Jonathan..." As he hit the wall, I screamed and ran to him.
James stopped me by grasping my hand and warned me, "Mia, he is not in his senses. If you stay, he might hurt you, so you should leave.”
I shook my head. "No way, James. I’m not leaving because I’m certain he will never hurt me; he is only frightening me." I spoke this with utter confidence because I knew he was just scaring me.
And the next thing I knew, I was in excruciating pain because Jonathan attacked my neck from behind, which was far worse than the previous time.
I thought I might pass out in agony as he wildly sucked my blood, digging his nails into my arms. My vision began to become increasingly fuzzy in front of me.
“Jonathan, leave her, you’ll kill her. What’s wrong with you?” I saw James attempting to push Jonathan away from me, but he was not ready to leave me, instead biting me even more brutally.
It was getting so bad that my body was going numb with pain. I was not in a condition to think or do anything, and then my eyes closed and darkness enveloped me.
