Milan: Queen of the Wolves

Chapter 12

I groaned in pain refusing to move. I don't want to die in pain... paralysis sounds like a better option right now.

Open your eyes. Someone's voice said in my mind.

Ugh. Who's this? I asked back. Pfft I'm supposedly unconscious so that people can't disturb me but that isn't really happening.

Open your eyes, love. Immediately my heart beat picked up. W-What...H-How is that even possible?

I need you to open your eyes, Milan. And promise me that you won't come in search of me. He said. He sounded so pained- so stressed- that I could literally feel all of it myself.

I promise. Bu-

And then the connection got cut. Shit.. what happened? Why am I unconscious.. Blinking rapidly I tried ignoring the light that was literally blinding me. Someone's hand twitched and only then did I realise that someone was holding my hand. I looked to see Ethan's brown haired head lying next to my waist while he snored softly.

"E-Ethan?" I giggled. He seemed to hear me and jolted awake immediately. His body posture stiffened and his expression-stony, but softened when his eyes landed on me.

"You're awake. I need you to tell me what happened, Milan." He asked softly with a worried expression.

"We were heading back when all of a s-sud-den" I croaked out. He sighed before helping me drink some water and patiently waited as I recollected what happened. "A car came out of no where and then- Oh my god. Where's Elliot? Is he okay? Ethan say some-fucking-thing! Tell me he's alright God damnit!" I yelled.

Why wasn't he here with me? Oh god. Why did that foolish man have to shield me from those glass pieces! My heart hammered in my chest as I looked at him expecting him to tell me that his Elder Brother was peachy. But that didn't seem to happen...

"We couldn't find him" he growled lowly.

"H-He spoke to me in my mind. He told me to open my eyes and promise not to come after him" I whispered. Blame this on the mate bond or whatever but I cared for him. A lot. And I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive my self if something happens to him. The tears flowed down as I thought about the last thing that I had told him. I told him that I hated him.

Ethan looked shocked but after a few moments replaced it with a smirk. "You two got intimate" he stated proudly before he frowned. "Y'all have taken the mate bond one step ahead hence explaining why he could mind-link you. But it most probably drained all of his strength."

"Where am I?" He looked at me nervously before scratching the back of his neck awkwardly before muttering, "The second last level of the Castle". I literally chocked at that. Fuckity fuck. That's just one floor below that room.

The one with the spirits of them.

"I-I want Elliot" tears brimmed in my eyes. I was scared to death of ghosts and dogs. I've never watched a single horror movie in my life except for Conjuring after which I slept in between mom and Alistair for almost three months.

Ethan stiffened and put his arm around me and patted my back awkwardly. "There there. Don't cry sweetheart, we'll find him soon. I promise" he smiled at me. The room door opened, Emily came in followed by Asher and another buff looking man.

I wiped my tears and smiled at Emily who came and hugged me. "Oh love, I'm so glad you're fine. Don't you worry your pretty head. As long as Elliot has all of us, not even the devil can harm him".
