Darkness at the Heart of My Love || Wenclair

Chapter 29: Be Careful of Who You Trust

Wednesday's POV

I watch as the back of the limo is engulfed in flames. The only thing in my mind is to get Enid safe. Or, at least it is until I finally get her to the dorm. I practically dragged Enid and pushed her in the dorm before I allowed my mind to clear. Someone is really out to get me. But... what if it is not me their after, but it's Enid?

I look over to see Enid panting and sitting on her bed. "Are you okay?" I ask firmly, not wanting to show any emotion about what just happened. She looks up at me, tears forming in the corner of her eyes. "Yeah... Just... Why is everyone coming after you?..." she says as her voice cracks and tears start falling. I walk over to my desk, all the letters and pictures still spread out. "Wednesday?"  

Esther Sinclair. Laura Gates. Tyler Galpin. Principal Phoenix. Ajax Petropolis. Xavier Thorpe.

Those are my top suspects.

Ajax and Xavier. They were talking and glaring at myself and Enid as we walked to the limo. They could have easily seen us get in the vehicle and get the license plate. But they wouldn't run or walk the entire way to the other side of Jericho, and the shuttle stopped running for the day. Xavier is upset I won't date him. Ajax is mad and spreading lies about Enid.

Esther Sinclair. She has been trying to get me away from Enid at any and all costs. I have the letters to prove it. She could have easily run from Nevermore to the restaurant seeing that she is a werewolf. BUT she also has been seen talking to a student of Nevermore as well as possibly Tyler. But would she really try to kill her own daughter in the process?

Laura Gates and Tyler Galpin. They both are currently uncaptured, roaming free. Tyler picked a fight with the Nevermore werewolves before running off. He also might be working with Esther Sinclair. I have no idea what happened to Laura after I knocked her unconscious.

Principal Phoenix. They have a mode of transportation and could have seen the limo pull out from his office window or another window while walking the halls. But I don't have a motive for them.

I turn and look at Enid, she has tears in her eyes and she seems scared or nervous. I move over to her and place my hand on her shoulder which causes a vision. Perfect timing.

I am standing on the steps into Nevermore, it's foggy with a slight drizzle. I watch as a hearse and another black vehicle enter the gates, but fortunately it isn't my parents car. I step aside as I hear the front doors of Nevermore open, four men are carrying a casket dressed in flowers of all colors from black to the brightest pinks. I see Yoko, Divina, and Eugene follow out behind them, all dressed in black. I watch as the casket is loaded into the hearse followed by Enid's friends enter the car behind. I stand there confused, until it hits me. Enid is most likely in the casket since it's her best friends. Unless it's me but Enid isn't there. But before I could find answers, I see another vision mixing in with this one until it comes into full view. I see Enid being taken in handcuffs, blood covering her face and clothes, her eyes red from crying. Just as quickly as it began, it was over. I am thrown back to reality where Enid is holding me, as if she was afraid I would get hurt.

"Enid?" I ask confused. I hear her sniffle and hug me tighter. "Enid? What's wrong?" She sniffles again before letting go. "Sorry... You were shaking and I got scared." She wipes her eyes and sits on her bed. "What did you see?" She asks, her face clearly full of worry. Do I lie to her... Or do I tell her the truth... I look into her eyes, those blue eyes shiny with tears. I need to tell her, but I know it's just going to worry her...

I sit down on her bed next to her, placing my hands in my lap. "You're not going to like this..." I say as I avoid her gaze. I don't have enough information from the visions to tell who did what or who was dead but I can try to make inferences. I sigh before telling her everything I saw, down to every little detail. Once I finish telling her she stands up and goes to the window. I can almost hear what she is thinking and I am not sure if I agree or not.
