Chapter 20: Pain

THIRD PERSON’S VIEW

The Vista’s stopped running when Vigor suddenly stops. They were in the middle of hunting the deer
and they can almost reach it when he stopped running.

“What’s the matter.” Lex asked, catching his breath.

Vigor transformed into a man and turned around to see the distance of the mansion. He doesn’t know
what’s happening too. He can feel it, he knows something’s wrong.

It’s normal for them to convey their words in telepathy, however, it’s only possible if the brethren drank
his blood. In his case with Pyress, she couldn’t read her mind but can feel her emotions.

He can feel something vague, but he knows, it’s something negative.

“I have to go back,” he said and run back the distance. It’s faster in his animal form.

…

PYRESS’ POV

I heart froze as I saw him standing on the doorway. I inhaled sharply and I wasn’t able to exhale back.
My breath froze too.

I can feel my chest tremble in fear and anger and pain. The mixed emotion that I am feeling right now is
surreal. I wanted to get out. I am desperate to get out of here.

“Love,” His voice echoed in the four corners of the bedroom.



My tears from earlier wasn’t dry, but I wiped it fast before ever looking at him straight. I don’t care how
bad I look; I don’t care how ugly I look right now. I don’t care if I am not as beautiful as the woman in
the art room. I don’t care!

When he stepped closer to me, I panicked. I don’t want him to come close to me.

Since I am on the bed, I can’t step anywhere. I am in the middle of wearing my boots and it’s making
me frantic as hell!

“S-STOP!” I finally said.

The more I don’t want him to know about the thing I found out today, the more I am slipping. My fear is
too much, this is because of the trauma that I had that night.

I can’t believe how fast the situation changed. I was so happy in the morning and suddenly I found out
3 possible things that could be the cause of my death.

“What’s wrong, baby?” He whispered.

The worry in his voice annoyed me, so I looked at him sharply.

“G-get away!” I shouted.

My tears began falling again, pain, fear and anger were going round and round. I don’t think I can live
like this any longer.

I stood up, my knees hurt because of my fall earlier. I held my big tummy, and I froze.

I-if he’s a monster, i-if that mythical creature was real. Then…

I looked at my tummy and a flickering pain on my head made me close my eyes.



What’s happening. Why is this happening to me. What did I do wrong to deserve all of this?

I feel dizzy, everything on me was going round and round.

I held on the wall, and before I knew it, I lost my strength and expecting for a bad fall.

…

I don’t know if I am dreaming or not, but I was back on the forest where it happened. I looked around
and I saw a little bamboo house. It’s easy to see because it is radiating with light.

I slowly took my steps forward and went on the bamboo house.

As I get closer, it’s getting warmer and warmer, comforting me from the pain, cold and fear that I was
experiencing. As I get closer to the warm house, it keeps going away too.

What the fuck!

I became frustrated, I wanted to reach the house and feel its warmth. But I froze when I saw Vigor on
the doorstep, handsomely waiting for me.

I stopped; he’s reaching his hands on me. I know I am angry but it’s warm, I wanted to go.

“Do you think you can replace me?” I heard a whisper on my ear.

I can smell rose everywhere; the scent is so fascinating.

“W-who are you?” I asked. I don’t know but my voice was loud even if it’s only a whisper.

“Viennese,” Her soft voice whispered on my ears again.



I turned around to look, and I saw her radiating beauty. I feel sad for myself. She has this beauty that
would make every woman anxious of the way they look. She’s she’s something else.

“Why are you here, are you real?” I asked.

She smiled, “Of course I am real.” She then looks at the bamboo house.

“That’s Vigor’s spirit force. He’s waiting for me.” She whispered.

My heart breaks. “I am his wife! You can’t do that, bitch!” I said angrily.

Her laughter echoed all over the place. It sucks but even her laughter was gentle.

“Yes, you are. But you can’t compete to me. I own him already.”

My tears were falling, he walked towards the bamboo house and why does it look like the bamboo
house itself is coming closer to her, but running away from me?

I dropped my knees on the ground and cried.

I watched them hug, it seems like I was watching a television of their drama. They look good together.

Then Vigor transformed, I saw him turned into an animal with his shining golden eyes.

I do feel fear, but the pain of jealousy was even powerful.

I cried and cried and cried.

And when I opened my eyes, our room’s ceiling welcomed me.

I am crying still, even after I wake up.



I turned aside and sobbed even more. It’s so painful. Who is she, why was she on my dreams?

I know it’s a work of mind but why does it feel real.

I remembered before I was molested by the beast, I had countless of dreams of being chased. Does
that mean, my dream just now has a meaning as well?

I sobbed again.

“Love,” I heard Vigor’s voice on my back.

I am scared of him, but I want to fucking punch him and ask him many questions too.

“W-who is Viennese?” I asked and turned around to see his reaction.

He froze, and I can see how his expression changed as I mentioned her name.

That’s even more painful, for me.
