Chapter 125 - The Hidden Truth- II
When Adeline saw Noah coming out of the forest she could dance in happen as a star was the only person she saw to be alive and walking on two legs. The only person who was breathing.
Noah was her only help at the moment because he was the only one that was breathing and walking towards her and the statement was confirmed when he talked to her.So, she begged him to help her but when she felt a sudden force against her cheek that had her tumbling down she realised the situation was not in her favour, not in the slightest.
She was onto the ground and her hair had fallen all over the place covering her head as well. She palmed her cheek and gas at the warmth it emmitted. She had been slapped, by Noah.
Slapped.
She looked at him who appeared to be staring down at her with amusement in his eyes. What was he amused by?
Anger surged through her veins and she stood up. "What the hell?" She yelled at him. How dare he, hell, who was he to even raised his hand on her?
She raised upper hand immediately ready to strike him and moved it across only for him to grab it and throw her down again.
"Ah!" She cried as a body roughly collided with the snow. Soft snow or not at the moment it hurt.
She was lying on the ground when she turned to look at him who looked bored this time.
"What's worth with you?" She spat. "People are literally dead in front of us, all of them, and you are hitting me?!"
He scoffed and looked at her then shook his head as if deciding against something.
He moved ahead and swatted down in front of her. "Do you know what your problem is adaline? You are not even worth half of the trouble that you have brought me." He sighed and shook his head. "Oh well, at the end of the day I know that this plan will work which makes it all little better."
"What plan?" She whispered. What was happening? Why did she have no clue about it? "Noah, please—"
"Shh!" He hissed placing his finger over his lips telling her to shush. "I am so annoyed by you that your voice seems to be giving me a headache and I don't like those. So shut up."
Her mouth opened at the audacity and she blinked back in shock. What was he talking about?
He was watching her and so was she. Noah was scarier now. All of a sudden she noticed that he had grown paler than before, dangerously so. He was malist the color white.
"N-Noah?" She whispered as she watched him carefully, scared of his reactions. "What are you talking about?" She nearly got them out when he had a Malicious smile on his face.
He was grinned and she gasped in horror.
He was fangs or canines, Maybe, she was not sure anymore.
He laughed at her expressions and then suddenly lead in making her fall back out of fear. "Are you scared Adeline?" Just tilting his head to the side. "I think you should be but for the sake of our friendship, I will tell you what's going to happen to you."
"What's going to happen to me?" She gawked at him. "What did I even do to begin with?!" She cried. What the hell went wrong? "You were the one who told me about the supernatural and got me out of town while murdering my father! Do you seriously have the balls to talk to me about what's going to happen to me?!"
"Yes, I do." He mocked. "Did you seriously think that a stranger out of nowhere would help you?" He cooed at her. "Those times are going where someone would come out to help you by the kindness of the heart. Now," he grinned and pointed at himself, "only monsters like me women who take advantage of people like you, gullible and," he watched as her heart pounded quickly in her chest which was moving up and down hurriedly. Her chest was sight he would love to see. He could hear it pounding loudly out of fear and he placed a finger on her heart, "Pure at heart." He completed.
"Noah stop this joke!" She cried out instead.
She looked at her up and down. Her entire being was shaking with fear of what he could do with a because she knew that all of this could lead to her death. Percy was driving him crazy because he knew that her powerlessness was going to drive her mate mad and there was no way that he could save her.
He gave a long sigh. "You know, you are going to die Adeline and there is no one that can stop that." He revealed making her stiffen. "Do you know what is sacrifice is?"
Her eyes widened at that. What sacrifices?!
He grinned. "Well I do know you in now to see the wheels churning in your brain. Well then, I will walk you through the process. I had told you about my mate right? The one who died? She can come back alive and the only way to do that is by killing the net of another and I cannot have a better option than you."
Horror gripped her hard. "Me?" She whispered out of fear. Her Brian had gone blank and she had no idea what to do anymore. She was numb.
He nodded. "Yes, you." He confirmed. "You are the mate of a dominant Lycan who is actually a part of the royal family of shapeshifters. What excites me the most is, you ran away from him which makes them protecting you a questionable choice."
What the fuck?
He laughed. "That's alright. I'll tell ya," he stood up and revealed futher, "Xavier would never kill you. He would never even dream of it. His worst nightmare would be the death of you. But instead of using your brain you chose to trust me and now instead of the only person who can protect you against the entire world with an army which is the strongest of all." He grinned again flashing the fangs at her. "You are helpless, my dear." He whispered, "And now, sleep, I have a surprise waiting for you."
She watched him from below and within movement after he finished she felt below to her head knocking her out immediately.
