Chapter 9: Closing In

Cyan's POV:
I opened my eyes and woke up feeling refreshed and energized. It was the first time in a while that I actually got a good sleep.

I sat up and pulled the covers off of me as I felt the soft and comfy bed under me. Laying on the bed felt like I was on a cloud or marshmallow.

I looked around me and recalled the beautiful room as the sweet lingering scents of two people filled my nostrils.

Viktor was on one sofa, sleeping and Vance was on another sofa with his blanket on the floor.

I chuckled to myself as I watched them both. My heart thumped as my eyes traced their bodies. What is this feeling?

I got out of bed and made my way to the toilet. I used it and splashed some cold water on my face to wake myself up.

When I come back out both of them are still sleeping.

I walk over to Vance and pick up the blanket and drapes it over him. I look over at Viktor and smile softly.

Why is it that I feel so safe here? So much safer than I have been all these years of my life. Sure I felt safe whenever I was with Lyova, but I always felt disconnected to everyone. Now I know why. Why mom always tried to avoid me and why I always felt isolated in what I thought was my own home and I could feel that I was different. Ever since I was young, I always felt like this.

I walked over to the window and looked outside as I wiped the corners of my eyes.

Dad's coming today, but what will happen? I can't go back home, it's not even my home, I don't belong there... I don't have anywhere to return to, why did they even take me in?

My eyes trace the trees and scenery outside the window as the sun rises in the horizon.  Something glimmers in the shadows of the trees and my eyes are drawn to it immediately.

A shiver goes down my spine and I back away from the window. A pair of eyes follow me and their sharpness cut through me. I fell to the floor and moved to the corner of the room, trying to hide myself.

Why? Why is this happening? It's Peter, he won't leave me alone unless he catches me. He's going to hurt someone, I just know it.

I sit there breathing deeply as I recall the creepy and sharp eyes. I can't help but tremble.

"Cyan, you cannot let him catch you. You have to tell our mates and your dad, they can help", the familiar voice tells me.

"Nobody would believe me if I told them... The fact that I hear you makes me weird...it's not normal. If I tell them, Peter will kill Lyova and everyone! I can't anymore... I just want this to stop", I stare at the floor as my eyes get blurry.

Viktor's POV:
"Ow!". What the?!

I awake suddenly to someone pinching my arm and open my eyes to see the person I suspected.

"What's wrong with you, Van?!", I sit up on the sofa startled awake by my brother.

"It's Cyan. Something's wrong", he says and I immediately scan the room. I see him sitting in the corner looking upset as he hugs his knees. I can feel his unease and emotional stress.

I get up and walk towards him with Vance. "Cyan?", he calls out but he doesn't answer, he seems deep in thought and upset.
