Resurrection novel Chapter 21

Back to basics

Xaviers pov

"I never loved you......you were just a pawn in my game of revenge...

I hate the blood flowing through you veins!!

I hate you!!!"

He words keep invading my thoughts

I toss around in my bed unable to go to sleep

This is the same bed which we shared

The same bed on which her cherry blossom and peach fregrance used to linger

The same full moon view from the glass window we used to see cuddled together.

Even after so many years

Even after sharing this bed with many other girls

Even after replacing her fragrance with stink of alcohol

She still remains

She remains in my mind and I can't remove her from there.

I got up from my bed and made my way towards the medical room.

I need my answers

She has made me a shell of a person I was before

She has broken me into pieces non fixable

She has made a fool of me

A fool of the Alpha king

I need to know why she did it.

As I entered I saw her thin body covered in gauzes

A machine was beeping near her every second

And numerous tubes were connected to her .

Her chest was rising and falling slowly

I grabbed a seat and sat next to her .

I felt relieved on seeing her chest rising and following..

When for a second it took a few seconds longer for her chest to rise a unknown fear entered my mind but it was gone as she took another breath.

I realised how my heart stopped for a second when her breath came few seconds late.

It was clear

I was afraid to loose her.

Ezra's pov

I am tired

Tired of trying to move forward

Tired of living a life of a orphan ,of a Betrayer,of a murderer,a rogue and now a prisoner.

Can't all this mental and physical suffering end

Can't I just die?

But what would mom and dad say?

They wouldn't want this

They would want me to have a happy life with a loving mate and beautiful children.

They would have wanted me to live

I opened my eyes

It was dark but the monitors placed near me were showing some light

My heartbeat was visible on them and I remembered that I was still alive.

Why was I alive ?

How did I got here?

My gaze shifted to the figure that sat next to me

Even in the dark I could feel his eyes staring straight at me.

We continued to stare

No words were exchanged but his presence only was enough for me.

Enough for keeping me sane

Enough for assuring myself that he still cared.

Silence was broken when he asked me the question I was running from throughout my life

"Why did you betray me Ezra?"

His voice was broken
