Adeline looked at the daunting forest in front of her. "You would come behind right?" she turned to him who now stood just in his undergarments, "Right?"
He huffed slightly. "How many fucking times do I have to say it?" Xavier's eyes twinkled with delight as he bent slightly with thumbs tucked inside his underwear band, "Want to see something?" He raised my eyebrow at her who looked at him like he was deranged.
Adeline took advantage of the head start given to her. She started jogging across the forest, entering it much to her dismay. She did not feel right running into the forest all alone while having a lycan chase her. Lycans were dangerous but she knew that she would not hurt her. Maybe, it was just a game. He wanted to play because shifters often liked to play the game of chase with their mates but that was not done with humans.
Even though she found the entire scene of the forest very pleasing to the eye, this particular aspect was dangerous and scary. She wanted nothing to do with it. She did not like this. The forest was scary.
Adelen turned around to see what was behind her but when she did not see any one she just turned around and started jogging forward. It was an iry feeling crawling up her spine and it made her again and again. Where was he? What kind of head start was this ? Was he waiting for her to cross halfway into the jungle?
She eventually slowed the run down into a jog. Her thighs started to hurt because she was not used to running at all. Where was he? She glanced behind. How had he still not caught up with her? What kind of game of catch was this? She waited for him to come to her.
But he didn't.
Adeline looked around to where she was standing. Now she had no idea how she was in the forest and Xavier was not appearing.
"Xavier?" She yelled hoping that the year would definitely reach his ears. "Xavier! Where are you!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. That should not have happened. Xavier should have been able to hear your voice even if she was in the jungle. Lycan had better hearing than wolves and a wolf could hear her then surely could Xavier. So where was he?
"Xavierrr!" she yelled at the top of her lungs.
Her eyes moved to the world around her. the trees were dense and had managed to grow many branches which made it difficult for the sunlight to peep in. Thankfully so, everything was visible and she could find her way around but that was not it. She turned around to find herself with a similar view of what she saw binder. Everything was similar. There was no way she could find her way back if needed, which now she might need.
"Xavier?" she called out hesitantly. Now Adeline was not so sure if he was coming.
She gasped and turned around when she heard something. She stared and analyzed the area carefully. What was that? She definitely heard someone behind her.
She licked her lips before panicking and running in a random direction. This was not good. she didn't even know where she was going. She did not stop running until her legs gave out and she fell down on her knees. she heaved loudly and coughed. Her throat had begun to hurt and she coughed dryly. this was not good where was he?
"Ahh!" She jumped and yelled when she felt something clamped on her ankle making her jerk forward. Just as she was about to turn around to check what it was, her ankle was dragged back a bit before she found herself being hauled up in the air. A scream tore from her and as she met the ground and the impact alone knocked the air out of her. she groaned loudly and a wail came as tried to hold herself up.
Her entire back was paining like hell when she tried to put some force on it. her sine felt like it had broken into different pieces and she thought that getting up might look difficult but keeping herself standing was going to prove itself a difficult task.
She groaned trying to flip herself on her back. At the moment, she had to see who that person was. What was that had dragged her and thrown her in the air. She felt herself flying in the air. The moment she had met with the ground, her body erupted in pain.
What a great pain it brought her just to turn around and flip on her back. Something she had done a thousand times before but now brought the unbreakable and unfathomable pain. She hissed just to turn around a little bit but gave up and remained on her back.
"Xavier. . ." She cried slightly. Where was he?
She cried softly not knowing what to do.
"Little Adeline. . ."
Her eyes widened at the voice she heard. It was almost uncanny. There was no way this voice could be heard. . .hers.
She was dead.
Her mother was supposed to be dead.
Adeline gulped. As she was still on her stomach she raised herself on her elbows, and turned her head around from where she had heard that voice.
No one was there. No one except a bunch of trees like there were everywhere here.
She gulped again as she looked around. She looked around. She tried to get a glimpse of everywhere as much as she could find in the forest. There was nothing here.
"Are you trying to find me Adeline?"
Adeline gasped. "Mum—mumma?" She whimpered. How could that be possible? Could it be possible in the slightest of ways?
"Mu-mumma?" She cried slightly as her vision got blurred with the tears. Could it really be possible? Was this world not made up of magic? Can her mother come back?
