Chapter 261: Chapter 261

Sophia’s POV

I was rubbing Lex’s back softly. My heart was racing like crazy.

“Is something wrong with Lex?” I asked, trying to turn my head so I could look at my mom. “What is going on, mom?”

I couldn’t move much because Lex was holding me too tightly. I couldn’t see my mom’s face clearly, but what I did see had me even more worried than before. I tightened my arms around Lex and kept my eyes on my mom.

“Alex is okay, honey,” my mom said and I relaxed immediately. “It’s not about him.”

As long as Lex was okay, everything would be okay.

“Who is it about then?” I heard Hunter ask. “What the hell happened?”

Lex placed a hand on my head and pressed me even closer to him.

“It’s about your darkness, Fia,” Lex said, his voice trembling. “It didn’t leave. It’s still here.”

I froze completely.

What?

“I can still feel it inside you, honey,” my mom added and I felt her hand on my back. “We got you back, but we didn’t get rid of it.”

My stomach turned. I was going to throw up. I couldn’t move, though. I couldn’t feel my body.

“Are you fucking kidding me?!” Hunter screamed. “You are wrong! You have to be wrong!”

I couldn’t even feel my heart beating. Maybe it just stopped working. I was sure that I wasn’t breathing. My chest burned with the lack of air.
