Chapter Faint heartbeat
Jefferson's POV
I couldn't believe my eyes, when I noticed my woman, gently falling to the ground, I took a deep breath while trying to calm myself down, I crawled towards her, my eyes was already blurry, with the evident tears that could be seen in my eyes. "Rose...Rose, please don't do this to me, please" I begged, but only to hear a hysterical laughter, oozing from the other side which rather shocked me, I turned my gaze to her father and couldn't believe he could actually be this evil to the extent he could do such with his own daughter, I took a deep breath before I tried to concentrate.
I know for sure he might have hidden the wolvesbane, that's the reason I can't perceive the scent through the air any more,I closed my eyes, while trying to focus, but rather I was feeling so dizzy, making it extremely hard for me to concentrate, I tried as much to keep a calm expression, before I succumb to the unending darkness.
My body was weak, my body was restrained to do some certain things, my head felt heavy, I attempted to stand up, Only to noticed that my body was tied up with a silver chains,my skin burned.
I groaned, in immense pain, I was in so much pains, I just couldn't endure it any longer, I tried as much to be out of the silver chains but it only proved futile.
"I like the way you have to struggle like this, looking at your vulnerable and pitiable state, that's the only thing that gives me joy" the lingering voice of Lucas echoed, and there was that familiarity attached to his voice, that I can't really decipher.
"Where is Rose" I asked, while struggling, amidst the burning silver chains, I can't move an inch because I was in so much pain.
"Don't worry she's somewhere save" he said, which made me took a deep breath, I tried to focus, but I couldn't, while trying to wrapped my head around what's happening.
I clearly remembered how she fell on the ground, the way she groaned in pain, it made me feel even more guilty, because I failed to protect her.
"We would be taking you to the vampire king, your blood is what we have been waiting for, I just can't wait to see the expression on the king's eyes, when he sees the man he has been looking for... the untamable beast" he laughed huskily before he left.
I closed my eyes, after hearing his speech, before I dart my eyes towards the window, my fist clenched, I felt so much pain, I couldn't endure it any longer, I tried as much to forget about the horrible scene, but I just couldn't.
"Rose, wherever you are please forgive me, because I have failed you" I mouthed those words, before I allowed a drop of tears to freely paved it's way down my cheeks, feeling nothing but pain, I don't know what else to do, but I know for the fact that I might not see her again.
I can feel her,but her heartbeat is very faint.
"Don't lose hope, we need to save our mate because she's ours" my wolf echoed, it's been long I have connected with my lycan side, I thought that it was almost non existent.
I closed my eyes, I tried to connect with my wolf, but the strong stench of silver and adding with garlic was making me weak, I can barely move an inch, I don't know to move any further.
"Please ... please" I begged, without even knowing what I was begging for, I just wanted to see my woman, I don't care what poeple say or do, but I just want to see her.

"She's dying" my wolf echoed softly.
"No... no, I have to do something" I can feel her heartbeat gently depreciating making me feel nothing but pain, I felt like my heart was being ripped apart without her presence, the thought of it, was already making me in pain, I tried as much to keep a calm expression, but I just couldn't, I closed my eyes to at least connect with her.
I want us to connect with each other, because if this is the day, she might die, I want to see her face, just one last time, her Bright smile, to make my day, I don't want my life to end this way.
After closing my eyes, I noticed a horrible side, she was kept in a dirty cell, with cobwebs and scorpions, it was evident enough that she was bleeding, especially the way she closed her eyes, while breathing hoarsely.
"No... Rose" I cried, this was the second time i was shedding tears, i have always tried to be tough, but today I'm so vulnerable and I can't help it.
"It's not time to be emotional, but talk to her, I have limited time" my wolf commanded me huskily. That's when I came to realize that it was my wolf who had connected me to her. "Rose..can you hear me".
I noticed the way she squint her eyes as she tried to open her eyes, she darts her eyes to different directions, before he said weakly.
"Jeff...are you there, where are you?" She called out gently, it was almost a whisper, making me clenched my fist in a tight balls, I hate to see my mate in so much pain.
"Please don't lose hope, just yet, keep on fighting, I'm coming for you" I tried to encourage her, she shook her head, as another hot set of tears, managed to paved it's way down her cheeks.
"I can't Jeff, I'm tired, just know that I love you so much, I would have loved to spend more time with you but....".
"Shhh...say no more, just trust me, when I say we are in this together " I said.
In a split second, I was brought back to reality, where I almost forgot that I was in nothing but pains.
"We are going to save our mate".
"Because she's mine".
