"Alright, what is going on." The buzzing in my head is returning with a vengeance, and I'm starting to feel like something is off here.
"Okay uh how do I say this..."
"Just spit it out, my head is killing me." His look of concern, was washed with guilt.
"Adria, we have to leave Draçon now. I dont have time to explain everything but you have to trust me.
The real reason I'm here is because I work with dangerous people and these individuals tasked me with a certain job. Because I cant do this job they are going to come after you, and unlike me they wont let anything get in their way."
I'm completely speechless. So this is what Sirius was hiding.
All this time Jasper was what, some sort of spy or something told to finish me off?
Fuck this. Fuck him. And Fuck Ecrea. For all I care, everyone and everything can go to hell, I just want to get Adelai and go somewhere I don't have to think about anything.
A cold bitter laugh shudders through me. "Trust you? How many times exactly should I do that? I mean if youre just going to keep stabbing me in the back at least have the decency to sound more malicious." I push past him to get back to the crowd.
He held onto my hand. "Adria please. I'm trying to save your life here, I-"
"Why? I dont need you to protect me. I dont want you near me. Matter of fact you shouldve just killed me yourself in Medeis, its not like I ever wanted to come back here anyways." I could feel my entire body buzzing now. Not just with electricity but with anger.
I concentrated on where his hand was holding me and let the lightning loose. He quickly let go before any struck him.
"Don't say that. Please Adria I understand I cant be forgiven for lying again, I just really need you to hear me out."
"No, I'm done. I'm done with all of this. And I'm done with you Jasper." I push a smile onto my face to mask my anger. " I thought Vivien was bad but at least with her you can expect the pain."
And just like that I left him standing there, shadowed by the violent fire. I didnt look into his eyes, because if I saw them and found nothing but remorse...I dont know if I would be able to hold onto my pain.
The pain that he caused when he found me.
I really did mean it, when I had said he shouldve killed me two months ago. If he had, I wouldnt have had the chance to know who he really is.
Walking away is something I need to do, because I know if I give him more time to explain just like last time, I'm just going to find a way to get over it. And I dont want to this time.
I want to get Adelai, and leave.
Leave Draçon, leave Ecrea, hels I'd leave this planet if I could.
Anything to put a whole lot of distance between me and him.
Anything to- I fall to the ground, my head throbbing and pass out.
