Chapter Twenty-Two

Morgana

I was suffocating in unknown territory.

In Riverview, I had a simple routine. I knew where to go and where not to go. In Redwood, it was near impossible to blend in. The town may have been even smaller than Riverview was which was saying something.

My funds were running low, the car was sitting on empty, and I'd been holed up inside the Ruby Motel since the day I arrived in town. I knew I needed to go in search of work, but it was hard enough getting out of bed.

I kept thinking of what was inside me, becoming more human with each passing day. In the big picture, I knew there was no way I was ready for a baby. The last thing the world needed was a mini Julian or Morgana running around. But I couldn't get rid of him or her either.

My mood plummeted even more. I didn't know what to do. I'd wasted enough of my time praying to a God that didn't give a damn about me.

It felt like I was watching my life go by from the sidelines. Feeling like I was drowning. It was to the point where I was ready to stop struggling and just lay still. Watch the world fade away while my lungs filled with water.

When I thought back to the things I saw at the Château, my mind told me none of it was real. Before Julian took me, I was never at risk of being crazy. Yes, I had some anxiety issues, and there was fuzz where memories of my past should be, but my mind had never blatantly rejected things I saw.

Fingers tugged at my scalp, pulling strands of my baylage hair until it hurt. I knew I needed some kind of pain. Julian had made me feel normal, for just a little while. The adrenaline rush he gave me was my drug of choice. I craved the way he made me soar.

Now that I didn't have him, or my medicine, things I never noticed before were noticeable. Feelings I tried to avoid were unavoidable. And even though I shouldn't, I missed the wicked, sick man with the part of me that was as rotten as he was.

He had successfully wrapped his barbed wire chains around a piece of my soul. We were so terrible for one another, so dysfunctional and twisted. But when our bodies came together we were soul mates, he got inside my head and made himself at home.

I leaned back on the retro flower comforter; the lumpy pillow cradled my head.

With eyes closed, I conjured a memory of us together, sliding my hand across my navel, pausing as if someone were watching, before moving a little lower.

I look over at the clock, irritated for a reason I don't understand. No. I do understand. Julian isn't in bed, and it's almost four in the morning. His side is still perfectly made, letting me know he was never here at all. Huffing out a breath, I roll onto my stomach and close my eyes.
