Chapter 4 - Obsessed

......

Back in the forest Julia started to regain consciousness. Her eye lids flutter open she took a while registering where she was when everything that had happened many minutes ago started to pour in. Her face turned pale and was plastered with shocked as she looked at her dead husband. She forced her wobbly legs to stand up and she weakly walked to him with tear stained face not minding the rain until she reached him and her legs gave out. She reached out her hand to touch his face. It was clear that she couldn't accept what she was seeing she remember when he promised he'll be back and she cried even harder.

While she was in the midst of crying her trembling body froze as she realized that she had left her baby all alone and that the one who was the cause of the knocking on their door and unaliving her husband was probably after her baby too.

She got up and ran as fast as her wobbly legs could take her, her vision becoming dark but she fought for consciousness and refused to faint until she was able to get her baby to safety.

After a few minutes she arrived her legs and arms covered in bruise as she fell down not once but many times but she didn't let that stop her until she made it back.

She hastily entered the house and went straight to the bedroom where she heard her baby crying as well as some heavy commotion inside.

The both men were covered in each other's blood and the room was beyond recognition now. The red haired man was beaten up because he kept trying to protect the baby which distracted him and he received some heavy blows.None noticed the presence of the lady behind them until the devil looking man saw her whom she recognized as Hayes the man who was beyond obsessed about her. She was looking at both of them with a horrified expression on her face.

Thier eyes met and he smirked in a creepy way that gave one goosebumps just by looking at him his red eyes looked like he found his long awaited prey and a lustful glimmer flashed across his eyes as he eyed her like she was some delicious looking meal, his gaze on her disgusted her to her bones.

The red haired man looked behind his shoulder but still keeping an eye on the man in front of him incase he'll attack.

"Julia"he uttered almost inaudibly as a sliver of emotion flashed across those dark green eyes but it was gone to fast that she didn't notice it. His eyes became soft as looked at her but that soft gaze soon turned into a angry one as he looked at the state she was in. She was drenched covered in dirt and blood and bruises from head to toe.
