Under the Moonlight

Chapter 19

I was barely opening my eyes. I was hearing a lot of voices and I was feeling so tired. I remembered what happened and I moved my head and tried to get up.
"Jackson. You idiot" I yelled.
I didn't feel pain in my leg and tried to get up. I got up and I saw Isaac, Jess, Jackson, Chuck and Maria sitting in the kitchen. Isaac and Jess got back.
"It was time" Jackson said.
"You are dead." I said and looked at Jackson. "Let's go" I said. "We all more people now. We can do something and save him" I said to them. I could've walk easily.
"Vanessa sit down." Jess said to me.
"Come on. Where are Nate and the others?" I asked.
"They'll come any moment" Isaac said to me.
"Did you make any plan to save Taylor?" I asked them.
"Yes" Jess said
"Vanessa shut the fuck up and let they explain you" Maria said to me in one moment.
"Explain what?" I asked worriedly.
"You was sleeping for two days." Jackson said to me.
"Two days" I yelled.
"That was the effect of the plant I gave you to smell." Jackson said. "I needed to, to calm you down" he said. "And what the hell happened with Taylor?" I asked nervously.
"We don't know." Jess said.
"Perfect" I said ironically.
"Maria let's go" I said to Maria. I wanted to escape from this mess. They were doing absolutely nothing to save Taylor.
"First change your clothes" she said " we brought you some clothes. They are in the room" she added and I didn't think even a second. I went toward the room and took off the same jeans I was wearing when I was attacked. I took off the while towel around my leg and I saw the big scar on the leg. It wasn't healed enough yet but it wasn't bleeding so I just dressed up the jeans and some shirt and went back at the living room.
"Let's go" I said to Maria and she stood up.
"Don't make some stupid thing" Jess said to me when we were about to get put of the apartment.
"I won't. I can't." I said and faked a smile "its on you" I said and we left.
"You are with your car right?" I asked maria while we were getting out of the building.
"Yup" she smiled.
We got out and we went in the car.
"Where we going?" She asked me.
"I don't know. Just drive" I said and she started driving.
I wasn't talking during the whole way. I was just looking through the window and thinking about everything.
Taylor was gone. I was lost. I didn't know what to do. Nobody was telling me what were they doing to save him. I didn't even know if they were trying to save him. I wasn't included in their plan. I didn't feel like I belonged to that family.
We were driving and I didn't even know where. I wasn't really concentrated where Maria was driving. I told her just to drive. I didn't care where.
She stopped in one moment. We were on the road and there wasn't buildings and other cars around us.
"Are you OK?" She asked me in one moment.
"No" I simply said, still looking through the window.
She didn't said anything after that.
"Nobody carries about me" I said and looked away. "They don't care how I feel now and how worried and scared I am for Taylor" I added. "And Taylor didn't think about me when he decided to go there." I said and looked at Maria.
"I am sure he did" she said trying to make me feel better.
"He didn't. If he did, he wouldn't go there or at least he would've told me about his intention." I said.
"He must have some explanation" she said and I just rolled my eyes.
"You now what?" I looked at her. "I care shit about everyone. I don't care about that stupid things anymore. I forget about my life. I have family I go to school. They don't thing about me. I won't think about them too." I said
"Wow" Maria was speechless.
"Can you drive me home. I need to see my family" I said and she started driving.
She explained me whtlat Nate told to my parents. At the end I wasn't home for three days. He told that I was with him during the weekend and we were having some school reunion.
In the moment we arrived in front if my house I hugged Maria and got out of the car. She left and I made my way toward the front door. It was unlocked. I got in and went in the living room. My dad and my aunt were there.
"Oh look who is back" my dad smiled to me.
"How was your weekend?" My aunt asked "Nate is not home yet?" she added.
"It was good. He'll get back soon" I said and smiled. I actually faked the smiles. I didn't want to smile. I just wanted to look normal in front if them.
"You have some food in the kitchen if you are hungry" my dad said to me.
"I'll go first and take a shower" I said and got upstairs in my room.
I threw myself in the bed and just started looking at the ceiling.
All that I said to Maria before it was lie. I couldn't just lie myself like that. I couldn't not care about Taylor. I was carrying and a lot. I was hell of worried and I hated the fact that I can't do anything.
I just hoped Jess and the rest were actually having a good plan to save him.
He can't be dead. He is the true alpha. The only true alpha. He is too strong to be killed. They won't let the only true alpha to be killed.
A lot of was going on in my mind. I stood up from the bed and went to get a shower. I was thinking about Taylor all the time and I didn't even feel the pain in my leg because of the warm water. But in one moment the pain was so big and it made me stop thinking about it. I decided to be strong and try to finish the shower. I was successful.
I am more strong then I think.
I dressed up and went downstairs.
I got in the kitchen and took some food from the fridge and started eating. I wasnt hungry at all, but I needed to act like everything's on in front on my dad.
In one moment someone got in the house. It was Nate. I heard him going in the living room and after the short chat he made with my dad and my aunt I saw him getting in the kitchen. He sat in front of me at the table. He was just looking at me while I was eating the food and not looking at him.
"How are you feeling?" He asked me in one moment.
"Useless and stupid" I said still not looking at him.
"I meant about your leg?" He asked.
"It hurts" I said still all serious.
"It will pass" he said. I didn't say anything. After a few minutes of silence he decided to start talking again.
"Well we were at the..." He started and I interrupted him.
"I don't care." I said and stood up. I started cleaning the table after I ate. He stood up too.
"Taylor is OK" he said "still there but alive" he added.
I felt so relived. He was alive.
"Good for him" I said and tried to be as much relaxed as I could. I was mad at all of them. I didn't want to tall about none of them, even when I wanted to hear everything and know everything that happened.
"What happened?" Nate came closer to me. I was still ignoring him.
"Nothing." I said. "I am going in my room. I need to study." I lied and ran upstairs in my room. I closed the door behind me. After a few seconds Nate got in.
"Vanessa talk to me" he kidna yelled at me. I just looked at him.
"Go away Nate. I don't wanna talk about nothing. Actually there is nothing to talk about. You didn't think about me. All of you" I said nervously. "You are all lying to me, then you are making me sleep for two days just to get rid of me." I yelled.
"Vanessa.." He tried to get closer to me.
"Vanessa nothing. Get out and leave me fucking alone" I said.
"Okay" he said and I saw him getting out of the room.

I turn on some loud music and didn't get out of the room whole day.
