The Alpha Vs. Me

In My Head

~ Chapter 36 ~

Chloe's POV

Tears streaked down my face as I saw a limp Trey hanging from the ceiling upside down battered and bruised. I tried to get up but couldn't move as some unknown weight was holding me down. I struggled against the force as I looked around trying to get a hold of anything to help me. That's when I saw him, the same one that turned my dreams into nightmares.

"We meet again."

I woke up screaming loudly while sobbing. I wrapped my arms around myself while shivering. I barely noticed Trey wrap his arm around me and pull me into his chest.

"Chloe? Shh it's ok, I'm here." He murmured into my hair. I nodded while sobbing, moving my head into the crook of his neck I wrapped my arm around his arm needing to be close to him.

"It's ok," He told me again rubbing circles on my back. He held me for a few minutes until I pulled away. Reaching out he wiped my tears and kissed my forehead. I sighed and closed my eyes tightly wanting to get rid of the images of Trey... just lying there. My heart clenched and I wrapped my arms around him tightly, squeezing him to me.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" He asked softly, almost as if he was scared himself to know.

"Yeah," I answered. I remember someone telling me you should tell your bad dreams to someone otherwise they might come true, myth or not I'm not chancing it.

"I saw him Trey... he was there and so was you and I couldn't move. I-I just couldn't... I tried I really did..." I stuttered as sobs came out. I took a few deep breaths trying to calm my racing heart down.

"Chloe look at me" I turned my head to him. "Breathe," I did as he said. "Ok?" I nodded.

"He I mean Trevor... I saw him Trey." I told him. He looked at me confused. "He's in my head and won't leave me alone. He's always saying we meet again and looking at me with that crazed look. Trey... Trey please get him out. Please just get him out, I can't take it no more." I told him looking far away. My words sounded crazy but that was how it was. He was making me insane replaying things and saying stuff which I didn't want to see or hear.

"Chloe, he's gone. He's dead I saw it happen with my own eyes. I even ripped his heart out and stamped on it." I winced as the picture of him doing that filled my head. "Chloe I don't know how to get him out of your head, I really don't know. Why didn't you tell me before?" He said his voice breaking towards the end.

I looked up at him, "He was saying things to me." I told him. "He told me he would do things and then he showed me th-the things." He closed his eyes and laid his forehead on mine.

"What kind of things?" He growled.

"Y-you would die in each one... bleeding and I couldn't help you." I told him ignoring his question.

"Chloe baby, look I'm not dead he is. Your mind is messing with you; it's showing you things which you don't want to see. You just need to understand that he can never hurt you again. No-one will ever hurt you again." He said seriously. I buried my face into his chest while he ran his hands through my hair.

"I'm just so scared." I said honestly. I figured know was the right time to tell him how I actually feel.

"Just let it all out." He said quietly.

"I've been lying to you, when I told you all those times that I'm fine I wasn't. I was scared inside, scared that he might come back for me and finish the job. I was worried encase he hurt you or one of my family or pack. Sometimes when you weren't sleeping with me I would stay awake all night because whenever I closed my eyes I would see him and I didn't want to see him, not now... not ever." I sighed and inhaled his scent.
