Chapter 228

Dylan POV

I ended up waking with a loud gasp, my breath came out in panicked pants and my body shot up allowing my head to dart around the room trying to make sure I was back at the lake, only I was met with the interior of the medical tent. A constant rhythmic beep was going off, but in my panic it seemed to increase in speed.

Next to me, sat on a chair was Lewis. His head rested on the bed in slumber but his hand was on mine, holding it loosely. Why I had been bought back to the hospital like area was beyond me but at least I was no longer in that limbo place the moon goddess had sent me to.

My eyes uncontrollably streamed with water, and my breath was uneven, i had no idea why I was giving off this type of reaction, but it didn’t really matter, I guess my emotions had a mind of their own when it came to lycanthropy

matters.

I didn’t even think about what I was doing before I sort comfort from the only person present. I pulled my hand away from his and shook his shoulder, a strangled cry of his name left my lips causing him to wake immediately.

“Lewis!” His own head lifted straight away and he only gave himself 5 seconds to take my awake self in before pulling me into his arms. His tight embrace creating a warmth of calm to sweep over me. It had to be Lewis, my mate I mean. If King Josh wasn’t mated to me, despite me being chosen for him, then who was my other half? No one else had made me feel the way Lewis did. My breath instantly began to stabilise as my own arms tightened around his neck.

“Dylan?!” His uttering of my name came out as more of a whispered, unconvinced question, as he too tightened around my body, drawing me in even closer despite me already being flushed up against him. “You’re ok… I’m here.”

“I’m not ok… I’m not ok…” I shook my head and sobbed into his shoulder. For some reason, I was finally ok with letting my true feelings out around Lewis, I wasn’t ok, and he deserved to know that, hell I wanted him to know that, and for some reason, hearing the moon goddess telling me to become a wolf, made me feel worse and more trapped than I did when I was with Josh. I couldn’t for the life of me believe what had actually happened. The moon goddess was completely fucked up if she thought I would just roll over and accept the life that she wanted me to live. “She wants me to… I’m supposed to…” the words got lost in a sob. There was no way that I could become a wolf.

“Hey, hey. You need to calm down, you are going to make yourself sick.” He pushed me away from him slightly and held my face in his hands, wiping my eyes gently with his thumbs as he did so. “Deep breaths for me!” He showed me how to breathe because in that moment I had genuinely forgotten how, my mind focussed on one thing only, and that was what I was expected to do. “That’s it. Long breaths, come on Dyl.”

Wait… had something been done? I didn’t feel any different at all, I felt the exact same as I was from before I encountered the goddess, but I had to be sure. So instead of thinking and acting like a sane person, I shot up out of bed, breaking the contact between me and Lewis in order to find a mirror.

“Do I look different?” I frantically asked while fumbling around trying to find something, trying to find anything, before realizing there wasn’t many reflective surfaces around. “Lewis… do I look any different?!” I practically screamed it at him the second time as my desperation for normality intensified. I needed an answer, but instead he simply stared at me, his mouth opening and closing like a fish at my erratic behavior. “Get me a mirror… for gods sake please just find something.” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
