Chasing The Rejected Luna's Heart (Clara and Liam) novel Chapter 134

~DIMITRI~

I briefly glanced at Clara as she groaned beside me as she adjusted her body on the car seat. I couldn't help but sigh when I saw the frown on her face as she slept.

“We’ll be there soon” I murmured knowing fully well she was asleep.

Immediately after the call with Damon, I packed up her things and took her away from that house because I knew for a fact Damon had already tracked it down.

We were on our way to the second location and I had to look for a place to discard this car because I knew it was being tracked as well.

I drove in silence for a while till we got to a driveway where I had to park my car before we continued our journey.

I immediately got down from the car then took out our luggage before going over to the passenger door to wake Clara up.

“I don't want to wake you but we need to walk now so we can catch the bus, hmm?” I murmured as I tapped her cheek gently but she just groaned at me without opening her eyes.

“You’ll have to carry me. I can't walk,” She murmured and I sighed.

“How can I possibly carry you with all these luggage? Don't worry, we'll be there in no time, hmm? Just come down” I assured her but she just shook her head at me then stretched her arms at me.

“Carry me, I can't walk” She murmured and I rolled my eyes.

“I can't carry you with all these luggage, Clara” I explained to her and she huffed.

“Fine then, I'm not moving from this spot if you don't carry me” She told me and I sighed.

“Can you not be a pain in the butt right now?” I questioned, not being able to hide the irritation from my voice. We were wasting precious time.

My eyes widened when she suddenly began to cry.

“No no no, why are you crying?” I questioned as I grabbed onto her face and she finally opened her eyes and stared at me.

“I’m pregnant and you're being mean to me. Do you think Damon would be happy to hear you let me walk?” She questioned and I sighed.

“It’s not that far of a walk and…”

“I don't want to go anymore. Damon!” She screamed out loud and I immediately placed my hand over her mouth.

“Okay okay, I'll carry you. Jeez woman!” I muttered through clench teeth as I glanced around.

She grinned then motioned at me with her

“Thank you now, get down” She ordered and I rolled my eyes before turning around and squatting in front of the door.

“I may be a little heavy just so you know” She murmured as she climbed on top of my back.

I straightened up with her on my back then carried the luggage as I walked towards the bus station.

“Where are we headed?” She questioned after a while.

“Somewhere your uncle can easily access you. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you” I assured her and she hummed in response.

I immediately pulled it out and saw that it was a little dart. Immediately, my head began to feel dizzy and my vision was getting blurry.

Shit! This wasn't good at all!

I turned to Clara and she has lost consciousness after being shot on the neck with the dart as well. I pulled it out immediately and tried carrying her but I couldn't feel my legs nor my hands.

I tried calling out her name but I could barely hear myself. Everyone on that bus has been shot by that dart as well.

Just then, a man emerged from down the aisle and as soon as my eyes landed on his face, my breath hitched.

It was Clara's uncle. I remembered his face from the picture.

He reached out to carry Clara and I tried my hardest to fight him off but I was too dizzy and couldn't control my body.

He pushed me off him easily then carried Clara in his arms and was about to walk away but I fell to the floor and used all my strength to grab his leg.

I promised to protect her. I promised!

I let out a scream as he stepped firmly on my hand, crushing it against the metal floor of the bus.

“I Won't kill you now because you brought my niece back to me but if I ever lay my eyes on you again, consider yourself dead” The man uttered and before I could even blink, he was gone and he took Clara with him.

I failed to save her, I failed to protect her.

Damon was going to fucking kill me…
