Torture

chapter twenty four

Throwback..

"She's getting controlled, I can't tell by who or why but it was would explain her sleep walking and conversing with somebody." I frowned listening to the information Xavier gathered for me, unwanted worry filling my body.

"Somebody wants to use her to spy ? Perhaps even try harm somebody on the castle grounds." It would make sense, why my mate was being possesed and controlled by somebody.

I turned in the direction of the knocking, not quite sure who's house I was wondering through but that wasn't the first thing on my mind. I tilted my head to the side, looking down at the glass door with a man standing behind them. I could see him clearly yet I couldn't make out he's face, giving me an eery feeling.

"Hello Miss Donafrio, I'm here to offer you advice and help with the upcoming events." I sensed something odd in he's voice, but I smiled anyway taking a step forward to him the door shutting behind me and with that, he's face turned dark.

The image flashed before my eyes and the scenario changed, still wishing it hadn't. I knew this was a dream, but I couldn't wake up. Strong hands wrapped around my neck, squeezing tightly making my senses jerk. I could feel the tightness around my neck, my chest closing in burning with the begging need of oxygen. The pressure in my head rising, the ringing in my ears blocking my gasping and struggles.

Then it all disappeared, the image was dark yet slowly clearing up. Still blurry I stood still, shivering outside hearing the running of water. I stared at my lifeless, now blue body lying by the river. I didn't understand why I hadn't woken up yet, not as scared by seeing myself dead. But there, I started coughing water poaring past my lips.

But it was too late, I was already dead. This was just the other side.

She started struggling, gasping for air her hands clutching her neck as if somebody was choking her. I immediately got up from my seat, scrambling to her side attempting to wake her.

"Ophelia it's only a dream, focus on my voice. Wake up, it's just a dream." I tried to keep calm, but my voice began to shake still not knowing who was doing this to her.

And then she stopped. Her grip on my wrists loosened and suddenly dropped, her arms laying by her side. Ophelias skin turned pale and lips blue, her breathing was low and if you didn't watch her closely you'd think she wasn't breathing at all.

Not risking any more time, my arms slid under her body quickly running down the halls.

"Get me the doctor immediately !" I shouted across the hall, people turning to us grabbing their attention.

They could feel the panic radiating off me, something a lot had never seen before. I couldn't tell what was happening to me or her, I shouldn't care but the more I try stop myself the feelings only get stronger. And as for Ophelias case She's still here but I feel her drifting away.

"What happened ?" Xavier and aunt ammelia appeared by my side, along with our pack doctor.

"I'm not quite sure, she had a nightmare again. She began struggling for air and then suddenly, stopped." I kept my eyes on her body laying down on the bed, the doctor closely examining her.

"She's in some kind of a coma, she was put there through her subconscious. Is there something I should know about ?" Me and Xavier looked at eachother, already knowing why this is happening.
