Chapter 48
Chapter 48
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?”I demand from her.
She can’t be serious. She wouldn’t be so insane to do something like that. I’ve never heard of a potion like that before; where could she have gotten the information about it, and how did she even find it to begin with? I always knew that Lizzie was f*****g insane but was this really how far she would go to get what she wanted?
“You’re feeling a lot stronger than you should be, aren’t you? That’s because your body has taken up a lot of energy and power straight from her. And it isn’t going to stop there. Every time you see her, you touch her, and you’re intimate with her, your body will feed on her until there is nothing left to steal. You will be the one to kill Amiera. Not me, not the elders, not the white fox, no other dark whisperer. Only you will be responsible for her death, and if you think that you can stop it from happening, think again. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)You can’t. Now that your body has gotten a taste of her essence, her power, it will want more. You can try and fight it all you want, but as long as she’s near you, you will give in to the temptation. Even when she’s far away, you’ll crave to be near her, to suck her power dry.”
I grab Lizzie by her neck, “why?” I ask in torment. “Why did you do this?” She shrugs her shoulder and doesn’t look the least bit scared, “I was losing you to that girl. You were
ger focused on taking over the world. You were focused on how to make her life better, on how to protect her, on how to do absolutely everything to see her smile. Did you think I would have overlooked all the signs, Adam? Was I supposed to sit back and let you throw away your life away over her? It may hurt for a second after losing her, but the pain will fade with time. Eventually, you’ll forget about her existence. Power will be your only happiness, trust me. When you get a taste of her power, of everything that she has, you’ll want nothing else. When you see all kingdoms bow before you and that you have no one to answer to, then and only then will you realize the good I’ve done for you.”
My hands tighten around her neck, “if anything happens to Amiera, and I mean anything at all, I will kill you.” Islam her against the wall to emphasize my point.
She snarls at me when I let her go. I fly out of there with many things on my mind. I meant every word I just said to her; the only reason Lizzie is alive right now is that there is a chance she may be able to take me to the antidote. If she knew about the potion, I believed that she would also learn about its cure.
How did I not know that such a potion existed? I’ve read every book ever written on the flaming whisperer, so what did I miss? Unless Lizzie got to the books before me and removed that one page. Actually, a few pages were missing from one of the books now that I thought about it. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Did she have it? Was that how she found out where to find the potion and how to use it? Was there a way to reverse the potion? It wasn’t a lie; Amiera did get weak after we slept together. My heart squeezes as Lizzie’s words replay in my head. ‘You will be the one to kill Amiera. Not me, not the elders, not the white fox, no other dark whisperer.’
I wouldn’t let that happen. I would not let her die. I don’t care what I have to do; I can’t do anything to hurt the woman… The woman that I love.
God, 1 f*****g loved her, didn’t I? I couldn’t live with myself if I were the reason I lost her.
I can never see Amiera again until i find a solution, not if I want her to live. I can already feel the darkness taking over me. If I lost control, it would be hungry for her power, and it wouldn’t stop until it got everything from her.
I would not be the reason that she died. I would protect her, even if it meant protecting her from myself.

-AMIERA
When Adam didn’t show up after waking and waiting hours for him, I knew that something had to be terribly wrong. Did the elders find him and capture him? They knew that we broke the rules; this meant that
our lives were in danger.
The elders weren’t the kind of people who wouldn’t go through with their threats. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)The rule was there for a reason, and the fact still remained that we both broke it. I couldn’t go back home, and neither could Adam; they would have soldiers everywhere waiting for our return.
I knew already that I had to go in search of him. He said it countless times that we were stronger when we were together. He needed me, and I wouldn’t let him go through anything on his own. I will stand by his side, and we will overcome this, and everything life throws at us together. I never wanted to be apart
from him again.
However, when I’m about to leave, I hear a sudden gush of wind, and before looking up, I know that he’s returned.
When I see him, there is something different about him. He looks somehow bigger, and there is this weird but powerful aura around him. He already oozed of superiority, but this one was much stronger. Could this be because we slept together? He was supposed to gain strength, just like me. But it was weird that I hadn’t received any power; in fact, it felt like I had lost plenty.
His eyes are darker than usual, to the point that they almost look black.
He drops some food and clothes on the ground, and it seems as though he’s trying to keep his distance from me, which he shouldn’t be doing because all I want to do is wrap my hands around him and hold him close to me.
“We can’t see each other for a few days… Maybe longer. I’ve contacted your friend. I’ve told her where to find you, and she’s agreed to help keep you hidden until I find out how to deal with the elders.” He finally speaks.
Timmediately get up from the ground so quickly that I wince from pain in my head. I was still fragile, and I wasn’t sure why. Why did I suddenly feel like this? The only thing that changed was Adam and I sleeping together.
Adam doesn’t rush to my aid like he usually does, but the look on his face tells me that it’s killing him inside. What did I miss? What happened in those few hours that he was gone?
I take a step forward, and he takes one back. “Don’t.”
I’m taken aback by his request. I make another attempt, and he does the same thing again.
“Stay away, don’t come near me!” he roars.
My heart jumps in my chest, and it’s difficult to understand why he’s acting this cold towards me. I can’t hide the pain from my face.
“What’s going on?” I demand. “Is there something that you’re not telling me? Did something happen while you were gone? You’re suddenly acting cold, and you’re telling me things like we can’t see each other
for a few days without giving me any reasons at all for this behavior. You said yourself that we were stronger together, then why are you trying to separate us? (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)What’s your reasoning behind it?”
Why was he doing this to me now when I needed him more than ever? What was his reason? Where did he go, and who did he meet? I needed answers to all of these questions, and I needed them now!
