Chapter 136 - 136 - Distress
Staring at my wife right now, I realized that I really couldn't afford to lose her. Even if her father is the most notorious man alive, I will protect her and my son even if it cost me my life.
Thinking about what he would do to take Peggy and Caden, I may need to switch to that guy. I could take his father down but I don't think I could kill him if it was just me when the time comes.
Compared to me, that guy was heartless. If it's just me and Peggy asked me to not hurt her father, I would definitely follow Peggy. I don't want to make her sad again.
I sighed and got out of bed as I couldn't sleep. I walked towards the couch and sat there, poured a glass of wine to drink.
I have a lot in my mind right now. I was thinking about where Peggy's father is now. Where is he hiding? Is he near Primrose? What if he was just outside Queen's spying on us? Will I be able to protect Peggy and Caden?
Fuck! My mind is a mess. Why now?
I felt a throbbing pain in my head and my visions were starting to get blurry. Shit! Someone was taking over me, is it mom?
'Mom? Is that you?' I was speaking in my head but I am still awake, I know that. I could still see Peggy on the bed.
What the hell is happening to me? Am I having an episode? Nothing bad is happening yet and I didn't feel like this when Peggy was taken.
'Mom! Mom! Mom!' I kept on calling her but she wasn't answering.
'Mom, why did you leave me again? You are not supposed to leave me!' I shouted.
I was shouting inside my head but in reality I was just sitting on the couch looking at Peggy who was still sleeping on the bed.
I know this is bad. If this keeps going I might fall into a coma again. My mind could 't handle it if it's about mom.
'Why are you calling her? Have you forgotten that you talked to her saying you wouldn't take revenge anymore?'
It was that guy. My other self.
'I asked mom's permission and she's fine with it.' I answered the voice in my head.
'But are you?' He asked.
'Why are you asking the obvious?'
He laughed. 'Did you forget how she was murdered?'
It has been fourteen years already but I still can't forget what happened to her. Her lifeless body bathing in her own blood and the smell of it that still lingers in my nose.
I didn't answer. But I could hear his laugh inside my head.
'Look at the woman you loved so much. The daughter of the man who killed your own mother. Don't you think that a good way to avenge your mother is to take the life of his own blood?' He suddenly said.
'What did you just say? Are you asking me to kill my wife?'
'You want revenge. I can feel it. You were just blinded by your own feelings. She bewitched you so you won't kill her father.'
"Stop it! Enough! I don't want to hear anything from you! Get out of my head!"
I shouted. I thought I was shouting inside my head but I wasn't. I was already shouting out loud.
PEGGY POV
I was awakened by a loud voice that sounded distress. I slowly opened my eyes and turned to the other side of the bed. Jayden wasn't beside me so I stood up to look for him.
I frowned when I saw him on the couch, sitting there while tapping his head continuously. His other hand was holding a glass of wine.
He was looking at me but wasn't. His eyes seem restless and anxious.
"Love?" I called.
"Stop it! Enough! I don't want to hear anything from you! Get out of my head!"
He shouted again. It was the voice I heard when I was asleep. I stood up and walked towards him.
To my surprise, he suddenly put the glass of wine on the table, it was so forced that it broke. My eyes widened when I saw blood dripping from his palm. I rushed into him, tore my nightgown and wrapped the cloth in his palm.
"Love! It's me! Come back to me!" I whispered.
For some reason, I was calm. My heart was pounding so fast but I tried to relax and didn't panic.
Jayden was still tapping his head and he was sweating a lot. As if he wanted to get rid of someone.
I tried to touch his face but he was trying harder to avoid my touch. I need to reach out to him somehow, he was having an episode, I know it now.
I'm not really sure what to do. It was the first time I saw him like this, then I remember what Luke always does when Alora is having an episode.
So I kneeled in front of him, pulled his collar harder and slammed my lips to his.
He was struggling at first but I didn't let go of him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer.
I sucked his lower lip and licked it then I slid my tongue into his mouth, exploring and savoring the taste of it
I felt him relaxed and calmed down then he started responding to my kiss. He put his arms around my waist, pressing me to his body.
I could feel the warmth of his embrace and the passionate kiss he was giving me as response to my kisses.
When we pulled away, he leaned his forehead into mine.
"Are you okay now?" I asked, panting.
He nodded but his eyes were still restless.
"Love what happened? You were shouting at someone. Tell me what it is." I asked.
He kept quiet and just pulled me again, giving me a warm tight hug.
