CHAPTER FIVE

*

I felt fury and rage coming from his heart. “Does he even have one?” I thought as I couldn’t hear any heartbeat coming from his heart. It felt like there was a black hole where his heart should have been.

“Help!” I shouted instinctively but I stopped when he put his finger on my lips in a signal to keep silent. Did I obey out of fear of what the consequences could be if I didn’t? Or had he blocked me from uttering any word, from taking any action against him? If it was the latter, when exactly did that happen? Had he been blocking me from the beginning, from the moment I woke up and found myself in that bedroom with the large mirror with the wooden frame and the gothic window with the velvet curtains? Did he block me after we met? How powerful was that creature to be able to control my thoughts and actions without me realizing it? Me, a telepath of all people, the person who Alexandre had claimed to be the Hybrid; the powerful creature that will appear in our world and will bridge the differences between vampires and humans. It seemed that Alexandre was wrong. I wasn’t as powerful as he thought me to be. How disappointed he would be if he were there right now. All his hopes about the future of vampires would be shattered in little pieces. I was nothing special. I wasn’t the Hybrid. In was a failure.

“Someone is downstairs,” he whispered. “Stay here and close the door. And don’t get out whatever happens outside.”

With a loud slap, the man closed the door behind him. I stood there gasping in the empty chamber, flabbergasted by the turn of the events, frightened to death.

Well, for a telepath I had suffered a major fail. I had seen none of this coming. I ought to allow myself to act, whatever that could mean.

A loud noise made me jump. The entire building was shaken, and my heart raced like a crazy horse. The sound of dozens of glasses being broken echoed in an eerie crunching sound, followed by another loud “bang” accompanied by Alexandre’s cry of pain.

“Alexandre!” I shouted out loud. “You’re here!” I yelled and opened wide open the door. A bright light flashed the space as Alexandre dragged his dagger out of his pocket to defend himself from a black-clad woman’s sword attacks.

It was that woman! The woman I thought I’ve spotted twice the past 24 hours, and yet I wasn’t sure I had really seen her as she was disappeared twice in front of my eyes.

Alexandre stayed still until the sword-wielding woman got closer to him, and then with a quick move, he ducked and grasped her by the knees and pulled her legs up. The woman landed on her back, revealing her well-shaped leg under her black dress. As if she had fallen on a trampoline, the woman rapidly bounced back and with a quick move, she wrapped her arm around Alexandre’s jaw.
