Chapter 11
Sydney
“Sydney?” hysterical voices were everywhere. I don’t know how long I passed out but all I think was Adrian.
“Her head is bleeding” I heard Dimitri whispered. My eyes fluttered open. I can feel the grass that surrounds me and the taste of my blood in my lips.
“Don’t move” Eddie said. Someone carried me and put me on bed. I grip someone’s arm. It was Eddie.
“Adrian” I whispered. I can’t help to worry about Adrian’s safety. I can’t let him die, not now that I’m really to be with him.
“I’m sorry Syd. But Jill can’t see through him maybe he’s unconscious” he informed, face filled with distress and concern.
“Oh God” I sobbed. He hugged me and comforted me.
“I’ve seen him! He’s in warehouse near nevermore.” I heard Jill shouted. I stood up but Eddie held me back.
“You’re not well Syd” he said. Again there was a brotherly chastising voice in him.
“I’m fine” making my way to the living room. He shook his head but help me talk as I began to sway.
“Let’s call the guardians in the perimeter” Dimitri suggested.
“Okay, but let’s go first. There are only 2 of them right? There are 3 of us.” Rose said.
“No, 4 of us” I said. All eyes turned to me.
“No Syd”Jill said.
“I’ll call the alchemist.” I made a quick call and received their assurance in return. I watched Jill as she made a drink. I saw her mix something in it. I nearly rolled my eyes, I knew what it was, it was a powdered sleeping dose. I hide my smirk; I won’t top chemistry for nothing.
“You can’t go with us Syd. You’re not well. Here drink this” she said. I took the drink and pretend to be sipping. They only watch me waiting for me to sleep, I wasted to time and act as if I slowly closed my eyes as if I already fall asleep so that they won’t waste time in saving Adrian..
“This is for your own good, Sydney” Rose said.
“Let’s go. Guardians are already in their way” Dimitri announced.
“Jill come on” Eddie said.
“Will she be okay? Shit! Let’s go” her concerned voice was changed into a panic one. I was itching to bolt up but not until they were gone. I rode my own car and followed them secretly. Good thing that I didn’t met an accident on my way with my state. They reach the abandoned warehouse and the fight broke out instantly. The surroundings were deserted no humans or other witnesses around. I saw the open window in the warehouse, securing my belt bag I decided to climb up. I slip over 5times until I manage reach my destination. I saw Adrian tied up on a chair. I went over him stumbling on the process. Man! That guy really hit me hard.
“Sydney? What are you doing here?” He continuously asked. He looked up at the bandage on forehead. There was a slight irritation in his face, the look that he wants to hate himself for seeing me hurt.
“I’ll save you!” I admitted.
“Why?” he groaned.
“Because I love you!” Tears streamed in my eyes as I cut his ropes. We hugged each other tightly.
“They use me as bait... They wanted Jill to blackmail the queen” he explained.
“Oh God! But the others are fighting them! How many Strigoi?” my head starting to ache again both mentally and physically.
“What?! 10 strigois and 5 humans” he informed.
“Oh No!” I heard my phone beep.
Guardians and the alchemist are coming 5 minutes away Stanton message said. I was about to reply when the door burst open and a strigoi came in. Adrian hold be protectively in his arms but he was tackled and send flying on the other side of the room. He grabbed my hands but failed and accidentally touch my ring, he screamed. The ring was infused by spirits! I took the opportunity and incapacitate him using my knife. I went to Adrian but before I reach him someone snatched my hair and slammed me on the wall near Adrian. The strigoi came charging on me but Adrian came into my side.
“Adrian!” He was again backhanded by the strigoi. He lies there lifeless and unmoving. The strigoi tugged my shirt and knocked me and I felt something pierced near my chest. All I saw was my blood dripping freely on the floor”. I heard a loud thump,someone jump on the strigoi’s back and cut its throat before it could defend itself. I was surprised to see Micah.“I killed a man! I killed a man! I killed a man!” he frantically said repeatedly. He jerked when he saw me all bloody and weak.
“What are you doing here?” I asked weakly.
“I followed you. I just want to say goodbye and then I saw you, I thought Jill’s in trouble so I invited myself in. I hope you don’t mind” he nervously joked. I dropped on my knees crawling my way to Adrian. I already lose large amount of blood.
“Syd, you’re bleeding profusely” he exclaimed trying to hold me. I stopped him and ordered.
“Please find my belt bag”He roamed his eyes around searching for the bag.
“Adrian, wake up honey.... I love you” I whispered hoarsely unable to bear the pain. Micah held out my belt bag and with trembling hands I rummaged it for my magic flower antidote. I press the liquid against his lips.
“Honey, listen, drink this. I love you. I will always love you” still no response. It’s not working! I sobbed through the unbearable pain constricted in my chest because of the stabbed.
“Adrian” I whispered. I covered my mouth to cough and when I held it out I saw fresh blood.
“Sydney!” Micah shouted catching my head from falling. The world swarmed before me. I’m dying. They last thing I remember was Adrian’s voice.
“Sweetheart! Sydney! I love you!” he muttered like a prayer. I smiled, if this is what dying meant. If dying means I can be with my one true love then I’m willing to surrender wholeheartedly.
