The Dangers In My Heart Light Novel Novels & Stories

“Because when it comes to you, I never will.” The words hit me in places I didn’t want to name. I looked at the blood. I looked at him. And I couldn’t tell if I was safer now... Or more in danger than ever before. End of Chapter 12

I asked still wondering if am ina danger. "Dylan" the darkness says. The words were like dagger, cutting and breaking my heart to pieces, Dylan is never going to hurt me he can't. "No" I said with tears rolling down my eyes slowly.

Concentrating the energy from each cell in my body,I focus it on my palm. The intensity of the light increasing as it enters her body and hits directly near her heart. A scream leaves her and drops of sweat fall down my forehead. As I feel it , spreading. The yellow light , trying to break free the black veins that imprisoned her heart from beating. Hitting each nerve,each cell that remains captive to the poison. Her body enters into shocks, but I couldn't stop. There is risk of my energy damaging her heart, but it is the only way. I couldn't let her die.

Cassian bowed his head, forehead nearly touching mine. “Then do it.” Damien roared from the archway. “No!” Too late. My blood sank through Cassian’s shirt. Into silver light. Into the Heart. Into him. The world turned white. For one endless second, I felt everything. Cassian’s chains. His screams under Black Hollow. His sister’s betrayal. Damien’s blade. The Heart forced into his chest. Twenty-one years of darkness. Twenty-one years of not dying. Twenty-one years of waiting without knowing whether anyone would ever come.

The only sound was the ragged breathing of the group as they tried to process the danger they had just escaped. “We’re safe for now,” Seraphina said, her voice low. She leaned against the stone wall, exhausted from the battle. “But that’s not over. That was just a taste of what’s to come.” Marcus nodded, wiping sweat from his brow. “The Heart is more dangerous than we thought. We’ve awakened something—something that doesn’t want us to destroy it.” Lucas stared at the ground, his mind racing. “What was that presence? It was unlike anything I’ve ever felt before.”

Would he blame me? Was this an omen from the Goddess? I still haven’t told him about the flames. Would this break us? My heart was heavy with what I’d done and I looked down at my hands. I had blood on my hands. I shook the thoughts from my mind, now wasn’t the time for a mental breakdown. Viktor spoke and I raised my eyes to meet his. “We’re safe,” he said as he pulled me into his chest. As long as I’m here, everyone will be in danger.

“I’m not standing here alone with any of them though, am I?” Clearing his throat, still dense with lust, he sighed. “If I tell you, I put you in danger.” Zoe rolled her eyes. “Oh please, as if that isn’t the oldest line in the criminal’s handbook.” “It’s the truth.” “So, you just expect me to believe that I’m not in a dangerous situation right now?!”

“How comforting.” His expression didn't change. “It isn't supposed to be.” The honesty of that landed harder than reassurance would've. I looked back toward the windows again as rain blurred the city into gray streaks beyond the glass. “What are the actual dangers?” I asked quietly. This time Dante took slightly longer to answer. “Victor is dangerous when cornered,” he said. “Adrian is dangerous when underestimated.” “And Hannah?” At that, something colder entered his expression. “Hannah is desperate.”

He laughed at that, and the vibration in his chest sent a shiver down my spine. Still holding me, he turned the black stallion around and slowly headed home. The sunset stretched our shadows long across the golden field until they overlapped and merged into one. I looked at the shadows, and a ridiculous thought suddenly popped into my head. "Actually… Maybe this isn't that bad." The thought terrified me, so I immediately nipped it in the bud. "Wake up, Summer Reed! This is showing symptoms of trauma bonding! He's a madman and a kidnapper!" I screamed to myself.

He told her, his breathing heavy. Katherine could sense his fear, his voice was not stable, his lips trembled and his eyes were darting from left to right, but she could tell he wanted to be brave and she appreciated his kindness, most people would want to hide, he reminded her of her best friend, Carlos, a lot. "Okay, if you say so." She took out her cell phone and turned on the torchlight and so did Celeb, and they began heading forward through the pathway, at each side were different trees and it was so dark, one can feel danger lurking there.
