ADDICTED TO YOU

Chapter 11

"He's fine, you don't need to worry... he's healing now. Please don't blame yourself.... it wasn't your fault."

"You don't understand."

"Then please make me understand."

The rain was still as heavy as last night, the window on my room was slightly open... but no light was coming in... it was just the dullness and darkness of the sky. Natalia came by to take her turn in the guarding hours. She shouldn't even be comforting me, she should just scream at me for being the reason why Alfons got hurt...she should be with him right now, and not with me.

"I can't make people understand, it's just how it is."

Turning to the other side of the room, I stood up and headed for the open window... it's getting cold and I didn't wanna extend my already prolonged rest. I feel much weaker, just being in this  confined room than on being outside.

"Someone's coming."

As she said those words, there was a sudden knock on the door. I presume the accented voice that would be coming out soon would be from Raudica, but I was wrong... it was Giovanni's instead. No maids were in the hallway... no one... was in this floor, aside from me, Natalia and him. What does he want? The whole house seemed too small, it was suffocating now that he's in front of me.

"What is it?"

That horrible grin on his face, it makes people wanna shout the shit out of him for being an arrogant ass, but in the back of my mind, I was still nervous... concerning the things I've heard, not long ago from him... in his study.

"Nothing, I just wanna see how my pretty little niece is doing... now won't you invite me in?"

I tried to get a strong grip on the door, but he walked pass me with force, coercing himself inside my room. Natalia wasn't inside when he roamed his eyes, checking as if someone was hiding from him. Pheww! Thank God she knew when to exit, that was a close one. Giovanni turned his attention on me and before I could even know what was happening he had me on my neck, my back was flat on the cold wall and my arms twisted.... I couldn't move, I was left defenseless.

"Did you think, I didn't see you that night?"

He laughed that maniacal one, that shows off how malicious of a person he is. My heartbeat was racing, I didn't know if it's because I'm left helpless or if it's because any minute now, the thought that a wolf  might jump out of nowhere and beat the hell out of him would make things worse.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Behind him, I saw those eyes lurking in the darkest part of my room... it belonged to her wolf.... slowly emerging from the dark I saw her.....Natalia, she was in her wolf form ready to pounce on Giovanni, but I had to stop her... I knew she knows the risk of what she was gonna do... I shook my head in disapproval of the action she was about to do and upon seeing my disapproval she hesitantly stepped back in that somber part where Giovanni wouldn't see her being.

"I know you do, and I want you to shut that mouth of yours... cause if you don't  it'll be your life on the line... do you fucking understand?"

I didn't bother giving him the satisfaction upon nodding my agreement, I stood my ground not letting him notice any feeling of fear. He forcefully pushed me down on  the floor, leaving me there and headed towards the door... the prick that he is. When he got out, Natalia was back  in her human form again... running on my side and helping me get on my feet.

"You should've let me kill him."

"You know that's the worst decision you could come up with."

"I know, but he was hurting you."
