Chapter-21

I opened my eyes but my vision was blurry. My head hurt , I slowly sat on the bed gulping a glass of water which was beside me on the table. That hurt. Images of just a few hours ago flashed before my eyes. I clutched onto my necklace , tears brimming my eyes.

No zea. You have to stay strong. You can't get weak now, Seamus is waiting for you to slip so he could get what he wants. You can't let that happen.

I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath opening them again to be met with Zach's brown ones.

All this time I didn't realise I was not in my bedroom. I scanned the surroundings, looking at the different paintings hanging on his walls. I didn't take him for an artistic one I must say. The interiors were so beautiful , it felt like I was in some vintage home. I loved it.

Zach cleared his throat snapping me out of it.

I looked at him and boy he didn't seem even a tiny bit happy.

"What did I tell you Zea?" He gritted through his teeth

I gulped, ughh that shit hurt. Fuck you Seamus.

I pushed myself against the headboard. My words were stuck in my throat. He looked intimidating. I opened my mouth closing it again , like a fish.

"Speak" he snapped making his way towards me.

"I...we.. I mean me" , I fumbled

"You what!" He yelled running his hands through his hair.

"Do you even realise who he was!? What he could have done if I wasn't there? Do you realise what you put yourself into?!" He was pacing the room now

I slowly walked towards him, not the best idea. Won't recommend.

"Hey" I held his arm stopping him

"I actually knew.." I said but before I could complete Zach yelled again

"You knew!? Seriously?" Zach said and laughed

"Why am I not surprised? What would you get doing this zea?! Do you realise how many lives you would have put in danger calling out to him!?" He said standing in front of me , his eyes now shifting between gold and brown specks indicating he was  angry, his wolf conflicting with him.

I opened my mouth again but he beat me to it,

"What do you even think you wanted to do back there!?" He said holding my arms rather tightly

"I can't tell you that" I said, he dropped his hands chuckling.

To be honest I was scared. I was not even that scared of Seamus as I was of Zach right now.

"You know what? Do whatever you want, stay here for the night and leave first thing in the morning" Zach said banging the door as he left.

That stung. I closed my eyes trying to stop the tears. How I wish I could tell you , tell you everything but I can't. I can't put you in danger or anyone else.

.

I woke up early to avoid Zach and here I was standing in the middle of the road not knowing where to go. I was lost. My phone was not charged so I can't call anyone or use maps.

I sighed rubbing my face, this can't get anymore worse.

Suddenly someone's hand slipped in mine pulling me with them.

"How did you know I was here?" I asked after a few minutes

No answer. Well okay. If he wanted it that way then that's what he gets.
