All Chapters of Bound with Shadows : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

WRITER'S POVAfter Morticia had left, appalled and angry, Marcus could relax. God, he needed her out of his life. He was done pretending, he had hit his edge. He needed Naomi. Marcus left his office. He was done with work for now. He was on his way to the room where the wolf caught watching Naomi occupied. He felt the fire lit in his veins, the excitement of finally getting some action, releasing the tension from trying to find this guy who had tried to harm Naomi severally. As he walked he imagined the surprise if he was dead as well, just as the other had been found. But as he opened the door, he found him chained to the wall, both arms spread apart. He looked up when he heard the door open. Marcus could hear his heart rate increase a bit, not enough to be fear but more of recognition. He smiled, a sick one that promised more than words could convey, “You know me" He didn't react. He stared blankly at Marcus. Marcus noticed the blankness but it wasn't as overwhelming as the

NAOMI'S POV I couldn't take my eyes off her, I opened my mouth to ask her questions, ask her why she hadn't been in my dreams or tried to guide me through what I had found out. I wanted to ask her what she really meant by the evil they had created when suddenly the world around me began to tremble, I felt myself go off balance. “Naomi" I heard a far away voice. I looked around at the fading landscape for who was calling me but there was nothing. Suddenly, I wasn't there again, my eyes flashed open to the real world. I saw Logan leaning over me, “Naomi wake up" he said. He looked worried but calmed down when he saw my eyes open. He moved away as I sat up straight, it had been a dream. Finally after days of dreamless nights she had come again, I had gotten used to her, it had been uncomfortable without her. Still, I hadn't been able to ask her questions. Questions I needed answers to. “I was worried" Logan said, staring at me. “Why? I was just sleeping" I said wondering what co

NAOMI'S POV I stared at the doctor in shock and wonder, what did he mean by the substance found in her blood. I asked again, almost the same question but in a different way, “Couldn't it be any of drugs she had been taking?" The doctor who looked confident said again, “No, we have all the samples for them and none of them match, there'll be further testing but we suspect it could be the reason she suffered such an attack" his tone was clean and professional. I couldn't help but wonder then what could be the substance, Elias who had visited while we were here hadn't fed her anything and I knew he wouldn't give her anything that would hurt her. He hadn't admitted it yet but I knew he felt something for her. I turned to Logan first, his face was a mask of confusion. He looked like he wanted to say something but kept mute. He simply made a humming sound and moved out of the room. Marcus on the other hand who had looked tired and drained when he had come looked something close to su

NAOMI'S POVAfter Marcus left, I was alone again with my thoughts, trying to remember what I had watched, if there had been anything I had been missing. The more I thought, the more details I seemed to be missing. It's like my brain forgot the more I tried to bring the memories back. The only strange thing I had remembered was the nurse, although now it wasn't so strange. Hourly check ups were done for critically injured patients. Other than that, no one else had gone in or out, not even in the corridor. It had been a private floor, so it wasn't like patients could move around easily. Still, lacking the evidence I still believed it, it hadn't been normal and if Marcus was right it would be the venom that had killed the wolves. I wasn't too eager to find out. Whoever it was, behind this. He had made such an elaborate plan that I had no idea what would be next. What could he be planning to do next? I wondered when the door opened. I looked to see it was Logan, it had been about

NAOMI'S POVI sat up straight in alarm. His voice, it sounded heavy. I already knew now, it was bad news. It had to be. “What?" I asked, my heart racing with different scenarios but the most likely one. “It's the same thing. The venom, the confirmed it." His voice was grave as he said it. It almost didn't shock me but still I felt sadness slam into me. “Is she going to die?" I asked as my heart slammed into my ribcage. I looked at Layla who lay on the bed. Her breathing steady, unconscious and unaware. I couldn't live without her. I couldn't imagine it. Marcus didn't Answer immediately. “I’ve asked my witches to check. There's not too much in her so I don't know” I leaned back in the chair, my heart thudding and my eyes watering. Layla, the memories we shared. The advice she gave me. My comfort. I felt a hand on my back, I didn't look to see who it was. The hand rubbed me and then a voice, "she won't die” it was Logan. He knelt to face me, my face on the same level with his.
