Looking for the Eclipse

Chapter 5

Nefeli s P.O.V.:

It has been a while since Layla had a night shift and I was alone in the house. A weight has been lifted that David left cause I would definetely be freaked out being here on my own, knowing he is at the appartment right above me.

Layla is not gonna be back in for a few hours, so I will just order something and watch a movie or two, I guess. I will wait up for her, though, and the desert she always bring since I' m not sleepy. I did try to sleep but for some reason I m on edge...

The movie has been on for an hour but I doubt I have paid any attention to it. My senses are all over the place and I have the strangest feeling. I hear the doorbell I get startled but then I remember I ordered food and I relax. I get to the door and I open it and my heart drops. No no no no! God no!

David is standing there looking right at me.

" You need to leave! " I tell him trembling and try to close the door on him but he blocks it. He pushes it back open, gets in , closes it and locks it. The moment I heard that lock, panic was all I felt!

" I' m done playing nice Nefeli" he says and continues with something that send my fear over the edge " you will be mine weither you like it or not."

Suddenly his eyes turn black and he starts to make weird noises ...

what the hell ?! Is he growling?!

I run to my room and lock the door.

" You can run miss Neli but you cannot get away... I will have you!" I hear him say and I start bawling with terror.

" THE HELL YOU WILL YOU BASTARD !! I LL TEAR YOU APART!!" I hear somebody say...

Who is that??!!

Next thing I know I here growls and it sounds like animals are fighting! And that smell of cinnamon and wood , same as the club , hits me again but this time is stronger! What the f**k is happening?!? Am I hallucinating?!

And suddenly everything stops...

The knock of the my bedroom door is the next thing I hear...

" Whoever you are leave me alone!" I shout to whoever is behind the door, still crying.

God that smell is intoxicating and it is extremely strong now! It excites me and relaxes me at the same time....

" He is gone. You can come out now!" My unknown and possible savior says.

" That door is staying closed until my flatmate or the police come!" I state with a fear tha I cannot help in my voice . I am calmer than I expected to be under the cisrcumstances but I am definitely not calm enough to face another psycho.

" Well...Youu have no phone with you, cause I can see your phone is right here in the living room, so you cannot call the police and I do not have a phone with me to do it for you. So I hope that your friend comes back soon"

the stranger says with a very soothing, deep voice, I might add...

What is wrong with me and I pay attention to that stuff?! I never pay attention to that stuff!

" Look Neli, lets start over...

My name is Alex and the asshole is gone. It is safe for you to come out now trust me! I know you are scared but you don't have to be. Not anymore and definitely do not be scared of me. I would never hurt you! Now please come out so I can see you are ok..." he pleads with me.

"What if he comes back or you lock me in like he did?" I ask him.

His scent, his voice and his words did wanders to calm me down but I am still apprehensive.

" Well, he is not coming back and your door is broken down so I could not lock you in even if I wanted to"

He tells me that and I can tell from his voice he is smiling. Does he find this funny?! I could have been killed and he is laughing at me?! Oh well, I was not calm enough to open the door before but I am angry enough to open it now mister!

The moment I do however I m stunned...

First comes the smell... it hits me stronger than ever and brings me a wave of emotions. It is like all my senses are going to overdrive and give me life!

Then I see him... The most hansome man I have ever seen. Tall, with a godlike body, brown hair and green eyes that look deep in my soul. I have seen these eyes before ... I now I have but I do not when or where.

Lastly, the worst feeling comes... Pain!

I feel like my brain is about to explode !! I cannot handle it!! And it is getting worse and worse!

" Hold me! " I call to my saviour , with every strength I can master through the pain as I feel my body giving up on me...

He takes me in his arms swiftly right before I hit the floor and holds me close. The warmth of his body and his scent engulf me and the pain eases a bid but I can tell I m passing out.

Alex is sits on the floor holding me in his arms and rocks me back forth like trying to sooth a baby and wispers in my ear. Ι can feel his panic as well but I cannot hear him ... I m slipping away... he keeps repeating one word but I cannot tell what it is..

That is when I hear another voice, a female one but I do not see anyone...

" Hi Nefeli, I m Sky"

My eyes start to close and the last thing I remember is Alex's voice repeating the same world but this time I can hear it clearly.... and that is " Mine".
