49 The perfect way to unwind …
Lyla
I threw my arms up , bracing for the impact , my heart hammering against my ribs .
I could feel the creatures ” hot breath on my skin …
And then I woke up .
My scream tore through the air , as I bolted upright in bed gasping for breath .
My clothes were soaked and plastered to my trembling body like a second layer , my heart still racing as if I hadn’t yet realized the dream was over .
I looked around wildly , looking for the stick , my chest heaving … it took me a moment to realize I was no longer in the forest .
The familiar surroundings of the guest room in Xander’s house slowly came into focus the soft glow of the bedside lamp , and the rumpled sheets tangled around my legs .
But something was wrong .
I wasn’t alone .
Sitting on a recliner in the corner of the room , watching me intently was Xander .
“ Xander ? ” my voice was hoarse and my throat was still raw from screaming .
“ What … what are you doing here ? ”
He didn’t respond .
A chill ran down my spine .
There was something … off about the way he was looking at me .
His eyes seemed to glow in the dim light , reminding me of …
“ No ! ” I cried out , scrambling backwards on the bed .
For a heartbeat , just the briefest of seconds , I saw something else in Xander’s eyes .
The eyes of that creature the one that had attacked me – the same eyes I had seen on the man that had come to my bedroom the last time I had my heat … although Nanny had said it was her .
And then I screamed … opening my mouth as wide as I could .
My scream pierced the silence and within seconds , my door flew open with a bang as someone rushed in fumbling for the light switch .
As the room flooded with sudden brightness , my screaming intensified , my eyes wide with terror when I saw it was Xander , holding a spoon .
“ Lyla ! ” he called out , rushing to me , but I screamed louder pressing myself at the head of the
bed .
Every part of my body was trembling now .
I pointed to the now – empty recliner in the corner of the room .
“ You … you were just there ! ” I gasped , my voice hoarse and shaky .
“ You were sitting right there just now .
How did you … ? ”
Confusion clouded Xander’s features , his brows furrowing as he glanced between me and the chair .
“ What ? Now ! I wasn’t in here ,” he sounded both confused and concerned .
