My Alpha And I - Eyeless Jack x Cydo (OC)

Chapter 20

Cydo's pov

I didn't want to let go, but I knew I had to. I was the reason I was afraid of my own Alpha. I don't care if I'm afraid of him. I don't want to be afraid of Jack.

My heart hurt a lot and I don't know why. I really need to let go of Jack, but I feel like I'll lose him again. I enjoyed being held by him. He was so warm.

I don't know why, but tears began to fall. They poured from my eyes and I couldn't stop them.

"Cydo, What's wrong?" Jack asked me. I just held him tighter.

He pulled me to the table and sat down, pulling me onto his lap. I continued to cry into his hoody and he just let me. I let myself run dry before trying to speak.

"This is all my fault. I ruin everything. I'm such a monster." I cried. Jack rubbed my back.

"No you're not. Nothing is your fault. You just happen to be in the wrong place when shit hits the fan sometimes." he told me.

"Yes I a-"

"No you're fucking not. Don't even think about saying it again." Jack spat.

I no longer feared him as much as I did, but I still knew he was capable. I still had scars on my neck.

"Ok." I squeaked.

"Promise?"

"Promise."

"Good. You're not a monster. The real monsters are people who act like it. Not the ones who look like it. Got it?" he hissed. I nodded.

"Then lets wipe off these tears and get you cleaned up. You're still covered in blood and now so am I."

"Sorry."

"Don't be. As long as you're not afraid of me anymore I don't care what you do."

"Ok." My heart raced at his every word. It was almost too much to handle. I thought I was going to have a heart attack. I just couldn't keep up.

We got up and he grabbed my hand. I'm sure he felt my racing pulse. I walked with him through the living room and up the stairs.

No one said anything, just cast a glance at us before watching the tv again. Slender didn't say anything out loud or in my head, yet I knew that he was still making sure nothing will happen.

We walked upstairs and Jack left me at my door. I watched as he walked to his room and disappeared inside. I walked into my room and pulled out a change of clothes.

I showered and changed, brushing my hair out and braiding it. I waited about 20 minutes before there was a knock at my door.

I opened it to reveal Jack.

"Figured it wouldn't be a good idea to just walk in." he muttered. I understood his caution. I gave a slight nod.

"Well, you coming?" he asked. I tilted my head.

"I did promise you I'd take you to hunt in the city, didn't I?"

My eyes lit up. I figured he wouldn't want to take me. Or forgot.

"Then hurry up." he said. I raced past him and downstairs.

I waited by the door as he walked casually downstairs as if he didn't tell me to hurry up. I was excited and couldn't hold still.

"And where are you two heading off to?" Slender asked.

"I promised her I'd take her to the city for a hunt when I got back. It was pushed back so I'm taking her." Jack told him.
