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

Chapter 14

Jack's pov

I woke up to see a ceiling... And walls... Where... What?... When did I... Get home?...

I was completely confused. I was almost to the woods when I passed out, but not in them. And the mansion wasn't in sight. How did I get here?

I tried to sit up, but my body screamed in pain. I had a rough fight and was very injured. There was no way I could get away so I had to fight. I took alot of wounds, including... A blow... To my head...

Is that why I don't remember?

I forced myself to get up anyway. It was morning and I'm sure Cydo needs to feed. I wonder if she actually went with Jeff. I hope she didn't get into anymore fights.

I made my way to the door and stopped. My wounds were treated and wrapped, but my hoody and mask were off. I'm sure I couldn't have done that if I was out of it.

I slipped on my hoody and mask and walked out the door. I walked down the hall to Cydo's room and my head was pounding. Shit. How hard was I hit?

When I made it, Jeff was already there, talking through the door.

"What are you doing?" I asked. His head flicked up toward me.

He stepped infront of the door, blocking my way. It made me suspicious. I was going to say something when static filled my mind, worsening my headache.

I clutched my head as Slender appeared infront of me as well.

'Jack, come to my study. Do not say a word to Cydo. She is not in the best of spirits right now and has not fed yet to add. She is not to know you are up yet.' Slender's voice echoed in my head.

He disappeared and took the static with him. I looked up to Jeff, who hadn't moved from his spot in front of the door. He seemed suspicious of something, but didn't seem to show any hints other than talking to Cydo through the door.

I turned toward the stairs and started walking. I glanced back to see Jeff knocking and continue talking. It sounded like he was... Beckoning her to... Come out?

Worry and curiosity clouded my mind, adding to the constant pain. I walked downstairs and no one seemed to know I was here. But they were talking.

"Won't come out... Worried... Wonder why... She was fine yesterday... Did something happen... I hope she's ok..." were some things.

My confusion took over and I continued to the study. I knocked on the door and was told to enter. I did and was met by the sight of Slender at his desk. I closed the door and walked further in.

"What? Is it about Cydo? What happened?" I questioned, unable to stop them.

"Jack." Slender said. I stopped. My head didn't though. My head was pounding from everything going through it and I felt woozy.

"Jack. Sit and calm down. It is indeed about you and Cydo. Obviously you do not remember what occurred last night?" he said. I refused to sit.

"No... I remember passing out before reaching the forest. But it was in sight. Did Cydo come find me?" I asked.

"No. She waited for you on the porch, refusing to leave her spot until you returned. You had walked here and she helped you in."

"So what happened? How come Jeff's trying to get her out of her room?"

"Cydo treated your wounds, no one knew you were even back. I heard her and came to investigate her yelps and calls for help." he said. I became nervous for some reason. He continued.

"I arrived in your room in time to stop you from 'attacking' her."

The way he said 'attacking' made me worry more.

"Why would I attack her?" I questioned myself. He answered.

"I don't really know the reason, but... In your mind... I found that it was propelled in a... Sexual manner."

My heart crumbled. What did I do to her...

I flopped onto the couch and rested my head in my hands, my elbows on my knees. This has been the first time since my incident that I've felt actual regret.

"Why did I listen to you... Why didn't I take her with me... Why did I leave her here... What the fuck did I do... What was wrong with me... Why hadn't I heard him coming..." I muttered, "Son Of A Fucking Bitch."

"Jack. Calm down. You are not at fault for this. No one could have known. Cydo just needs her space for a bit. She knows that it wasn't you and that you wouldn't do that."

I took off my mask and took a breath, trying my hardest to calm myself.

"I can't believe this shit." I muttered.

"I'd ask that you keep your distance for a bit. Jeff will continue to take her hunting, if he could get her out of her room at least."

"Jeff actually took her hunting?"

"Yes. Everyday until the week was up. Then she stayed on the front porch waiting for you."

"No one told her that I could come through the back?"

"I don't believe it crossed anyone's mind at the time."

"It's been a week since I've been due back. She hasn't hunted in that time?"

"No. She was too set on waiting. She wanted to be here to help you when you returned."

"Damn it."

"Speaking of which. You seem to be beat. Your mission?"

"I completed it. On my way out, I got jumped and bashed in the head. I didn't have a chance to escape so I had to stay and fight. They're dead." I told him. He nodded in satisfaction.

"Well, it seems that Jeff is still having trouble. I will have to talk with Cydo. She's starved and needs to come out. I will likely talk with you later. I suggest you stay in the study until I say. I don't want Cydo to see you at the moment." he said before teleporting.

I wasn't in the best of moods now. What had I done? I looked at the black and blue ring on my finger. I bet she doesn't have the bracelet now. I wouldn't blame her after what I did.

I wish I had known...
I could have prevented it somehow...

I stayed in the study as told. I didn't want to avoid Cydo but I have to. For her sake. I didn't want to hurt her anymore than I already had.

God. Why did I have to do that?...
