And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Broken Bond with New Rules

Ivy POV

Rough hands gripped a hold of my waist, causing my eyes to flutter. Looking up, I watched as Damian’s rugged good looks came into view. The steely, fierce force of his gaze upon me as he lifted my body and carried me forward.

“What are you doing?” I whispered in a raspy tone.

“You’re injured. We have to get you to the hospital.”

The monotone way he spoke to me did nothing but leave me puzzled. Glancing up at the sky, I watched as the red faded from the moon.

 

The harvest moon was ending.

“Stop, we have to complete the bond.” I moaned softly, trying to move from his grasp. “Put me down.”

“No-‘ he stated softly, “it’s over. There is no time.”

I was astounded by what he was saying. If we didn’t complete the bond, there would be no turning back. The matebond would be lost forever. “Do you not want me?’

Tears filled my eyes, realizing that I was losing them.

“It isn’t that…. his eyes gazed down at me as he stopped in his tracks, ‘it isn’t right for us to keep you from what you want in life. Since you have been here, we have done nothing but cause you problems.”

“Put me down.” I gasped as I blinked back tears.

“No.” He replied before a car door was opened, and I slid into the back seat.

Darkness over taking my thoughts. I tried to keep my eyes open. Drops of crimson stained my shirt as I looked down at my chest

There was no changing his mind, and just as I had gotten used to it all…

He decided he didn’t want me.

As the pull of light drew me back towards reality, I slowly opened my eyes to see the white tile ceiling above me. The sterile smell of cleaning supplies stung my nose as I looked around my room.

The last thing I remembered was being carried, and then-Damian.
