Bullied Once, Loved Twice

Chapter 42 - Madness

His eyes scanned her demeanor, desperately looking for a sign of laughter, of disagreement or even an equal amount of disbelief, yet nothing seemed to show, nothing but sadness and what could potentially be perceived as desperation.

"Narcia!" He yelled, his patience running low, what had happened while he was out cold, what had she done with her ex, had he been that much of a play thing for her? A challenge to be overcome?

Had she lost interest now that he had finally dedicated himself to her? Marked her at the peril of his own humanity, giving away his only chance to one day live a normal life if he had chosen to.

He couldn't believe it, surely he was mistaken, this had to be some kind of sick, twisted mockery she had decided to play on him, perhaps she was even lying to him, not that she had said anything.

No, she stood there, eyes looking down at the ground in shame, unable to speak for herself, it pained him, it pained him like nothing.

"See? You were just a toy for her, she already lost interest now that she has responsibilities. I order you to pack your things and be gone by the time my ceremony starts, I don't need your worthless smell around while I mate her." Silviano said as he gripped Liam's shoulder, the boy shaking his head in disappointment as she lifted her head to protest.

Silviano did not even wait as she called out, following in protest as Liam was thrown outside the house with a slam of the door, his body having yet to recover failed to catch itself and crashed onto the pavement.

He could hear the loud screams and yelling inside the house, not that it mattered to him, his mate had clearly... No... She wasn't his mate, she was a whore, a worthless bitch.

Tears brimmed his eyes as he sat up, his hand gripping his chest as he struggled to breathe, the pain was so strong, so horrible, how could she do this after what he went through for her.

Liam slowly stood up, limping as his vision wavered, the sun blazing through the clouds with an intensity like no other, dehydration already taking effect on him as a headache started.

"Fucking hell..." He mumbled as he made his way to her house, looking around for whatever personal effect he still had, if it hadn't already been thrown out by mister king over there.

He couldn't understand how this had happened, did him marking her mean nothing? Was it because he was human when the bite happen? Why was she willing to be with that jerk rather than him?

"I need to call Matheo... I can't take this on my own." He whimpered out as he pulled his phone out, barelly holding himself together as he dialed the number.

"The phone you are trying to reach is no longer in service, please make sure to check the number you have dialed and call again." The phone immediately said, making Liam frown in confusion, how was his phone no longer in service?

Liam quickly checked the contact and the phone he had dialed, confirming that the number was indeed the right one, Liam shook his head in concern, quickly calling again and falling on the same message.

"What in gods name..?" He mumbled under his breath before rushing out of the house, making his way towards Matheo's parents house, sending a quick worried text but being blocked with a similar message that the phone was no longer in service.

His heart picked up the pace, something was not right, something was very very wrong, Matheo had no reasons to change phone, or to turn off his service for good, something must've happened.

He quickly knocked on the door, his mother opening it before smiling at Liam, leaning against the doorframe.

"Why hello Liam, I am so glad to see you are better." She said in a soft tone, lifting his chin to see a small scrape on it, gently wiping the blood away.
