Chapter 164: Nightmare? Premonition?
[Rose’s P.O.V.]
The moment I fell asleep, I was awakened by a movement – I felt someone touching my face.
At first, I thought it was Edward, but after a few seconds, I became wide awake because my skin told me that the touch was not from Edward at all.
I opened my eyes and found that I was surrounded by darkness and Edward was not beside me, which made me panic a little. When I turned to look again, I saw another man lying next to me. He was the one who had touched me.
“Who are you?”
I bounced up from the bed and noticed that my pregnant belly was gone. Instead, there was a crib not far from my bed. My surroundings were still completely dark but I heard the sound of a baby’s babble from it.
“I have finally found you,” said the man in a creepy voice. What was going on?
Without thinking too much, I immediately used my ability to attack him, sending him flying away from me. But he suddenly disappeared, as if into the darkness, before appearing a second later in another part of the room. His eyes glowed a scarlet red as he stared at me. In the darkness, they seemed to shine with bloodlust.
“As expected of the most powerful female Werewolf of Chaos. We will be able to produce the most powerful offspring.”
“Offspring?” I didn’t know who he was, but I knew something was wrong. I jumped down from the bed and wanted to attack him again, but I realized that I wasn’t on the ground – there was nothing but darkness all around me, including below.
“What the hell is going on?”
I kicked and hit wildly, trying to get my foot to land, but I found that it was all in vain.
“Stop struggling. You belong to us.”
The man smiled in the dark, which made me very uncomfortable. Still, I did my best to get to the crib.
Once I finally did, I found a baby crying inside. I couldn’t see its face but my instincts told me to pick it up and hold it tight in my arms. The moment I did, I knew it was my little wolf. I could feel the bond between us.
“Give this b*stard to me. He shouldn’t have been born. He will only bring disaster.”
“Get lost!” I roared at him loudly as I gathered my energy and commanded it towards him. As expected, he was once again thrown into the wall. From the sound of it, the impact would have made a huge dent in the wall.
“D*mn it, you and your little b*stard will pay the price for this!”
He roared in the darkness. Then, he started appearing all around me, as if he was provoking me. Every time he appeared, there would be a puff of smoke. However, he was moving as fast, most likely due to my attack.
“Edward! Alonso! Is anyone there?” I screamed loudly, but no one came. Other than that man’s disgusting smile, my surroundings were completely silent. I didn’t ask for help because I didn’t want a fight in such a situation. I was afraid of hurting my child.
“Call whoever you want, but rest assured, I will find you. You will never be able to escape from us. Surrender or the vile spawn in your arms will bear the consequences of his birth.”
He stared at me with his glowing red eyes before disappearing into a puff of smoke. Then, I felt my shoulders and arms being grabbed, as if someone was trying to take my child away.
“No! Don’t take my child away!”
“Rose!”
I heard someone calling my name but I could only scream in despair. My heart felt like it was about to explode. I could not let my child be taken away.
“Rose! Wake up!”
I felt someone shaking my shoulders again but it was as if I was sinking deeper into the darkness. Finally, I somehow managed to open my eyes and found Edward staring worriedly at me.
“Rose, did you have a nightmare?” He hugged me tightly in his arms and that was when I realized that I couldn’t stop breathing heavily. My entire back was covered in sweat.
“Edward, someone wants to take our child away!”
“Baby, Relax, take a deep breath. There’s no one else here.”
Then, the room door opened and Alonso appeared alongside Susanna.
“Oh my God, my dear child. Look at what you’ve done!”
I followed Alonso’s gaze and noticed the large hole in the wall of my bedroom. Fortunately, it was the wall facing the dining hall and not the external facade of the building.
“You should be thankful that this wall is not a load-bearing wall. Susanna, please use your magic to temporarily restore this place. I don’t want the property management to come up to investigate and discover that a weak woman had dug a hole in my house,” said Alonso.
“Baby, tell me, what did you dream about?”
Edward was still holding me in his arms, gently patting my back. My breathing finally slowed to a normal rate. Once I was a little calmer and more clear-headed, I realized that my child was still in my womb, not my arms.
