Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

Chapter 104 - The Long Talk - II

When she talks to him and listen to his voice and finally felt a bit of scum settle into her chest after a very long time. Nowadays but she felt was the anticipation of fear and nervousness about what was going to happen next and not to mention how much anxiety she was having.

The peace that she once possessed in her life were long gone and now all she felt was some kind of feeling bubbling in her chest all the time. And returned as soon as she Hung up on her boyfriend.

She was going to meet her and it was only a few hours away. She could not wait any longer. She was walking to the place that they had had their first date. It was the first place they went together and where he had asked her to be his girlfriend. Somehow she felt that going there and choosing that as a destination was going to be important for both of them because it was the start of the journey and today it was going to take a completely different turn.

A turn why she decided if she wanted to stay any longer in this relationship or not. The same term could also end her life or where she could start a new life.

After 2 days for a week straight she was going to stay at her aunt's house back to where she has come from and it was going to be difficult for them to talk again. So she thought it was going to be better for them to talk now and if things went the wrong way they could take some time apart to think this through. Isn't the battle and did not want the pregnancy she still had to make sure that he had a say in it if he wanted to be a part of it. 

The rhythm that she wanted to talk in was set today and she was not going to let this chance go. She squared her shoulders and got ready for the battle. Even her hair was pulled back into a high ponytail and her leather jacket acted as her shining armour. 

Her hand patted the pocket which had the pepper spray in. It was filled to the brim and she had to check if it was working or not before leaving the house along with the space admin eyes and a small tailor in her bag. So she had her weapons ready. 

 She still had to walk to the next bus station which was in the market which was surprisingly empty today. It was usually filled with teenagers children and people walking together and shopping. Suddenly, she fell as if someone was watching her as the hair on the back of a next up. She turned around but found No one and people walking around as they did normally.

That was strange because her gut feeling and instincts did not come up often and whenever they did, they were always right. They must be someone who was following her. Her breathing quickened unknowingly. Did Xavier appoint someone to follow her? Heart refused to believe it but still did not want to take any chances. 

In a hurry, Adeline entered a shop randomly and watched through the shelves if someone came inside or was outside waiting for her. She was breathing heavily in fear of who was following her because somehow she felt very uncomfortable. Her heart thudded loudly and the situation grew even tenser. 

When she found no one coming inside the shop or even remotely waiting close outside, she decided that it was time to go out and continue walking to the bus stop. 

But as soon as she stepped outside the feeling was back as if she was being watched and she could not help but try to move back inside. She turned around to see first who it was but once again found No one staring at her or even looking at the shop. She stumbled back but her back only came to touch the closed door which had the word 'closed' dangling on the glass of the door as she turned to look. 

But it was just open moments ago! Her eyes watched the closed sign dangle across and then looked around her. Somehow the whole town had seemed to vanish from the market and it was all empty. What had happened all of a sudden? 

What was happening? She gulped and press herself for the back into the glass for protection even though it offered none. 

No family was standing outside or staying in the Ice cream parlour right in front of her, no children and teenagers standing next to the hot dog vendor and there was no one inside the shops if they still had the open sign on them.

The closed sign dangled everywhere within moments. 

How the hell within moments the whole world which was outside had gone and vanished into thin air? Adeline was sure, as she checked the time, she was not even in the shop for 5 minutes in total when the whole world had disappeared. Everything happened right the moment that you went inside the shop that did not explain anything as it was only for a few moments. She hardly spent 5 or 6 minutes inside. 

Now she very wondered if she wanted to go now and meet Xavier in the middle of a jungle where they had gone for their first date or not. Not the jungle but it was a park but it still made her wonder if the markets have people vanishing from them what would happen in a huge park. 

Not going there seemed like a better idea but also the fact that she had to talk to her and reveal something very important to him overpowered anything else.

She started to walk again not before glancing around to make sure that no one else was here following her but then again why would someone follow her?

But another thought also came to her mind how would it be possible that the whole group of people which were present in the market had vanished within a matter of minutes?

She searched her head and very discreetly glanced around mindful of the fact that someone could still be possible following her because the hair on the back of her neck was standing up and that could not be a good feeling for anyone.

She boarded the bus and was thankful for the fact that there were still three people inside of 8 while she climbed in. It was awful to wait at a bus stop when there was no one standing because anytime she would glance at a stop there were always people waiting for the bus.

Now having no one wait for all of a sudden seemed so. . . unworldly.

She watched as the shops turned into trees and they were closing the distance between her destination. She ran her sweaty hands on the Jean added thighs of hers. She was very nervous.

The bus came to a stop at the same spot where Xavier had once parked the car. She got off and the rest remained seated. The bus drove past her and she sighed looking at the back of it.

There was no one around. No car park, unlike the last time they were here. She gulped the feelings of anxiety and nervousness that she felt by being so alone at a place that used to have so many people.

At the moment Adeline could just pray that Xavier was already there because the entire walk and ride here she had felt nothing but the gut feeling that someone was following her here. For which, she discreetly turned around to watch but thankfully so no one was following her but the hair standing on her back and the slight build-up of sweat pointed towards another direction. She was too nervous and anxious to continue. 

She breathed heavily and turned to walk to the park near the lake quickly. The quicker she reached there, to the nearest place with civilians, the better she would feel. Xavier had once told her that no matter what they never closed the park, and if they had to it was never more than a day or two. The park was a sanctuary for people that they enjoyed.

She frowned as she neared the entrance, there were no sounds of children squealing and children were a staple presence here. The ominous feeling inside her grew even more. Where were the people? Was she worth coming 

She stopped in front of the gate that had no lock on it. So, it meant that the place was open. She turned the gate as well when she heard the crunching of the leaves. Hesitantly so, she turned behind only to find a wolf, a fully grown one, standing behind her with spit dripping from his mouth. 

Turns out, Christine was wrong. They were surely not extinct.
