Alpha Damien's POV
***
"Damien! Damien! Alaric!" I heard Claire shout at me but then it sounded distant like she wasn't in front of me and shaking me vigorously.
I tried to force my eyes open so I could see or but I couldn't, I also tried talking but couldn't even part my lips not to talk of making a sound, trying to do anything with my body just makes my heartburn badly.
All this started after I shifted in front of Layla and she ran away, watching her, my heartache slowly turned into heartburn.
It felt like someone pierced it with a silver dagger thereby melting it in the most painful way possible and as much as I tried to, I couldn't remove it.
Suddenly I started feeling weaker with every minute that passed and I couldn't shun it, not when the moment she screamed and ran away from me kept flashing through my eyes every time I blink.
