44: Threats Fired

LILLY POV

I couldn't tell you what I'm feeling right now. Happiness, relief, bliss, ecstasy, joy. There is so so much that I'm feeling now that I know he's back with me. She was going to kill him. She was going to rip his heart out and had I gotten there any later it may have been too late. That's the part that shakes me up, keeps me awake and wondering. I know we have her in our captivity now, she's not going anywhere any time soon. If it were up to me, I don't know, I'd probably kill her and not think twice.

He's moving slow, his skin is tones of grey and blue. His hands through nearly his whole elbow and his feet through his knees are ashy and veiny. I can't imagine what he's been going through. I can't imagine the pain that he's feeling right now and I don't have any more blood with me until we get back home. 

Me and Fen did the locator spell and to my surprise we worked. I didn't think it'd work, I thought all hope was lost but our powers are so strong when combined it must have just worked. I didn't grab anything more than what I could hold and I left. Fen and Anna caught up to me, I didn't know if they were going to come or not. I was prepared to fight alone but when they showed up I was that much more certain about getting him home. 

I know they don't feel the same way about him, I know they have their reservations but he really is a good fucking guy. I know he is. If he wasn't, I sure as hell wouldn't be doing this. 

When we finally got home I helped him inside and took him straight to my room. Everyone else was sitting downstairs when I walked in with him and all eyes were on us as I took him up. I laid him down on my bed, "stay here okay, I'll be right back."

"T-trust me," he coughed and rolled over a bit, "I'm not-not going any..where." I knew I had a sad expression on my face even though I was trying not to. I walked out and ran downstairs. 

"He okay?" Cyprus asked. 

"Yeah what's wrong?" Cade stood up, "we can help." I stopped and looked at the two of them. I could feel Fens eyes on me and I swallowed hard. 

"He uhm- he's hungry," I nodded, "he needs to drink but I uhm- I think it's more severe." I looked over at Carrie who was sitting on the ground. I walked over to her and waved my hand in front of her face so she could talk. "What did you do to him?" I scowled. 

"Don't worry about it," she smirked. I grabbed her throat and threw her into the wall, asking her again but this time yelling. I felt Fens hand on my shoulder and I swatted him away, telling her to tell me. Her face started to turn red. 

"Tell me!" I snapped, "or I will kill you right now!" I slammed her back into the wall, growling at her. Her eyes widened as the color left her skin. 

"I-I-I put-put a spell on-on him," she shook, "I-I-"

"What spell!" I yelled, "what did you do!" Cade had stood up now and taken a step towards me. "Back off," I turned my head, "I'm in control!" I turned back to face her, staring into her eyes, "what did you do to him?" 

"uh-uh a spell," she stuttered, "it-it makes him sick. The-the bacteria just grow and-and grow. It eats everything." 

"How do I cure it?" I questioned. 

"Blood," the tears fell from her eyes, "blood will kill it. It-it has to be human blood t-though."

I took my hand away, dropping her to the ground. She fell, grabbing her throat and gagging while trying to catch her breath. I looked at her in disgust before walking downstairs into the basement. I reached into the cooler where I pulled out the safe and entered the combination. I keep my human blood in here. It makes you stronger but it's also used for times like these and this is exactly why I keep it in a safe; otherwise, I'd have none. It's addicting.
