The Abandoned (currently on hold)

Chapter Eighteen

Hello, first I would like to thank and give credit to "LiveLifeMe" for creating a beautiful cover. Also, someone else sent me a cover for my story so I have decided to put them both up for you all to vote. I'm not sure how I'm going to do that yet, but I will put up the detail later. Anyways, sorry for taking so long to update and hope you like it. :)

Chapter Eighteen

I opened my eyes only to realize that my mother was gone. I had fallen asleep after our little preparation. She taught me a few basic spells, and some that should only be used in case I was in serious trouble. Some spells were dangerous and could weaken my senses, which wasn't good. I had to limit myself to simple spells unless it was absolutely necessary. This wasn't going to be an easy fight but I was ready for it. I had to fight for what was mine. I had to fight for my mate. So that we could be together! FOREVER. Like it's supposed to be.

I pulled my thoughts back to my mom. Did Mindy take her? Or did she leave on her own? I wasn’t sure, and I didn’t have time to think. I needed to prepare myself for the day that lied ahead of me. I quickly searched for the bathroom and washed myself up. I didn’t have any clothes, so I guess I’ll be staying in the same clothes. As I walked out the bathroom, I saw a bundle of new clothes on a chair. Were they there all along? I walked over to the chair and picked up the clothes. A note fell from in between. It read: 

Lisa,

 Good Luck. I hope these clothes are of your liking.

Love,

Your mom

I examined the clothes and realized that they were of my liking. It was a pair of jean shorts, a dark purple tank, and some black Vans.  I quickly stripped my clothes off and began to get dressed with the new clothes. Then I sat down and waited. If Jake made it here and we…mated, then it would all be over. No fight. But if Mindy caught him before he got to me, all hell would break lose. I kept waiting, but nothing happened. I began to get impatient and tired and before I knew it, I had drifted off into a slumber.

 

“Lisa? Lisa? Where are you baby?” I could hear his voice in a distant. I was in the forest, and it appeared to be night. The darkness didn’t allow me to see very well, and I kept stumbling over everything.

“Jake?” I called out into the dark. If he was out here then I still had a chance. WE still had a chance.

            “I’m over here babe.” I heard his deep voice getting closer as I walked, so I thought that I was walking in the right direction. It seemed like I walked for miles through the forest until I bumped into a hard figure. I gulped and then looked up to see what I had ran into and I was shocked by what I saw. I saw a clown. A huge, muscular, creepy-looking clown! I am petrified of clowns! I quickly turned around and ran in the other direction.

            As I ran, I came into contact with another person. I was about to yell out thinking it was the clown again but a hand muffled my scream. “SHHH…You’re safe with me.” Jake’s voice was a whisper, yet is made me feel very safe. I allowed my arms to navigate towards his neck and then I wrapped them tightly around him. He instantly wrapped his around my waist making me feel protected.

            I relaxed my head on his shoulder, when suddenly I felt something wet drip from above me. Was it coming from Jake? Was he drooling on me, or something? I focused my vision in on his face and realized he had blood on his nose as well as a black eye. Anger and frustration filled my body. Who could’ve done this to my mate? WHO?!

            “Who did this?” I ask him, desperately wanting to know. He didn’t answer. “Who was it? ANSWER ME!” I yelled. I felt bad for yelling at him, but I needed to know who had dared touch my mate.

            “Shhh, he’ll hear you.” He? Who’s he? Had this ‘he’ done this to him? My mind began to ask so many questions. Questions that needed to be answered! I began to speak but was cut off by a noise. There was someone else. THERE WAS SOMEONE ELSE! I freaked out at the thought. Jake realized and hugged me tighter.

            “We need to get out of he-“ he said as his voice became faint all of a sudden. As if he was losing his breathe. I pulled away and began to examine him. My jaw dropped when I saw that someone had stabbed a knife through his lower back. He was bleeding BADLY. He began to lose balance and then fell to the ground and as he fell, I saw a figure behind him. It was the same clown from earlier. I dropped to my knees not caring about anything but Jake and started seeing what I could do. There was nothing. He was going to bleed to death. The wound was too deep, and even with his healing abilities, he wasn’t going to make it. Tears started swelling in my eyes as I saw the love of life dying.

            “I love you.” Was all he said before he closed his eyes for good. At that moment, I started sobbing with all my might. He was dead. Gone. Forever. WHY?
