Chapter 127 Break the Record
Xenon's POV
"No way, I won't force myself to a person who will never love me back," I said with determination.
I love Claire... I love her so much but I will never let my love imprisoned her. I set her free... I let her go even if it is against my heart. Lov-
"Ouch! What was that for!" I asked looking pissed at Drena who just hit my head.
"What are you saying 'never love me back', you idiot!?" She scoffed with her both hands on her waist.
"She said it herself. She doesn't love me and never will." I sadly stated remembering her words that break my heart into pieces.
"And you believed her!? Oh Adrian, how did you ever got a foolish friend like him." She frustratingly said, slapping her forehead lightly.
"This is what I wanted to tell you... idiot." Lucas tapped me in the shoulder but I shoved it away and he laughed mockingly.
"I don't know him." Adrian looked somewhere whistling innocently.
"Tch. What do you want to say, that she lied to me?" I challenged, Claire wouldn't-
"Exactly!" They all said in chorus while Zoey was smiling playfully.
"She did lie to me, everything was a lie! Her actions before, her-" I messed up my hair in frustration "I don't even know what's the truth!"
Standing up, I decided to go upstairs but I freeze after hearing those words.
"Claire... woke you up from the dead." I immediately faced Drena in full of confusion.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"The day when you got poisoned by Marco. Doctors said, it was deadly and no cure has ever been made for that kind of poison. You were dying and we can't do anything but there was a sudden brownout. Confusingly, only in this house and then I saw... Claire. I saw her coming from your room, you died of a sudden and was brought back to life." She said that made everyone shocked.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I asked upset.
"I wanted to, but I wasn't sure before... when I discovered that she was the Legendary Silencer, from then on, I was sure that it was her who brought you back to life." She stated with sincerity.
That time... when I was dying, I felt her coming into my room and... kissed me- but I thought it was just a dream. Shit!
I immediately took my phone and dialed Blake.
"Hey, dude! What's up?" He said the moment he answered the phone.
"I have something important to ask you," I said.
"Anything, what is it?" He asked but I knew he sensed where it was leading.
"Where is Nicholo?" I anxiously asked.
"I don't know if I have the right to tell you about it but I think you already knew the answer to that." He gradually stated.
"Did she killed him at the time I got... caught?" I asked nervously.
Does it mean... there was no 'someone' who came and rescued us but...
"Yes." He answered.
That is all I wanted to hear. It was Claire who always comes and saves me.
"Thanks." I aimed to end the call but,
"Wait, I think you need to hear this." I listened to every word he said which made me shocked. What the fucking hell!?
"Got it. Thank you for telling me." I said and ended the call.
'Do you like me now?'
'What if I say, yes.'
Why am I doubting her love, if her actions are enough to tell me the truth?
Shit! I'm a fucking idiot.
I immediately walked towards Zoey "Where is she?"
"Our lover boy has been awakened!" Lucas cheered and the others smiled.
Tch.
Zoey shrugged "Don't ask me, I was busy with my own business." She said emphasizing the word 'own'.
Aish. I will not get anything from her!
"I'll escape. Coby, prepare my car. Lucas, find a pathway, and Adrian, keep an eye on that bastard." I ordered.
"But Xenon, where will you find her?" Cassy asked.
"To her place." Everyone froze from their spot.
"Don't tell me, you will go to..." Lucas said hesitating with the words.
"Yes, I'll go to Tarre's Mansion." They gasped in shock except for Zoey who seems liking my idea.
"No Xen, it is very dangerous. All people in there are ruthless killers! No one has ever set foot on that mansion uninvited." Adrian said trying to change my mind.
He's right but...
"Then I will be that one. I love her, and nothing can conquer my love. Go now, we shouldn't waste the time."
******
"Xen! I found a way out on the East back corner but there is a dog you have to kill." Lucas reported the moment he got inside the mansion.
"That's fine. Where's Coby?" I asked.
"Right here!" I looked up the stairs to find Coby clinging on Cassy. "The car is waiting for you a mile from here."
"Don't tell me, I have to run for a mile." I dared.
"You have to, they left the car right there and I have no other choice." He shrugged.
Aish "Fine. Seems that I don't have any choice either."
There I saw Coby smiled sheepishly. I sighed. It's getting dark, but I have to get the love of my life back.
"I'll be going," I stated and then I heard them cheered.
"Send my regards to Claire!" I heard Drena yelled before I got out of the mansion.
When I reached the East Back corner, I saw a man guiding the wall. I took a thick wooden stick and slowly get behind him, before he recognizes my presence I immediately hit his head hard that made him fall down with blood flowing out from his head.
I hide his body in the nearest storage house and locked it from the outside then I climbed the wall.
The moment I got out, I run as fast as I can, a mile after I saw a black car. I smirked, the key is on the top of the hood.
I get inside and drive fast. Everyone knew the Tarre Mansion but no one has ever got inside... alive.
I will break the record, I will do everything to win her back. I was an idiot when I let her go but I'll never do it again.
'I don't love you and I never will.' I shook my head.
What bothers me was... why did she lie to me? Doesn't she really love me? Will she never love me? Is my journey worth it?
"I have only one question for you Claire... Do you have feelings for me?" I asked, hoping and she nodded.
