This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
"It's me, Gid... Vera... your mate, your wife, can't you recognize me?" she asked, begging him to hear her. Her trembling hands were still trying to reach for his face. She had missed him. So very much that it hurt like hell. It had not even been that long. It had only been days that had passed since she last saw him, but it felt as though months had already passed.
Just as her hand was about to reach and touch his face, her vision suddenly blurred as she was rudely yanked away from him. And then she was thrown back onto the ground. Hard.
Vera groaned and gasped from the pain of her fall. But she immediately looked up and when she saw him tugging at his hair as he growled lowly at her, she forced herself to stand. It was then that she realized it was him who had pushed her away.
"Stay away, woman!" came his rumbling voice. It was a voice she could barely recognize. It sounded as though it belonged to her Gideon but at the same time, as if it also belonged to someone else that she did not recognize. "If you come closer, you're dead!" the threat came out as a growl, surprising her.
Something in his tone had her heart wrenching painfully. Before he had thrown her back from his person, she could almost feel his magic strangling her to death. He had thrown her away before the instincts from his darker side could kill her. Her beloved Gideon was still in there somewhere... a part of him could still recognize her.
Hope bloomed brighter in her heart, replacing the dread and uncertainties that had almost overwhelmed her optimism. Her sky-
blue eyes blazed vibrantly as she lifted her chin from that encouraging sign. She could wake him up! No... she would!! She would pull him away from that dreadful darkness that seemed to have drawn him in like a pit of quicksand and was consuming him quicker than she had imagined it would. She was not going to let go of him. Never. Because he was hers. He belonged to her alone. Not to the darkness. The darkness has no claim over him. Even if it thought that it did, she would show it. She had literally gone through hell to come and fetch her man back. It would be a cold and snowy day in hell before her man would be claimed by anything or anyone else other than herself! That means, it was never happening. Not if she still breathed and was able to fight.
Taking a step forward, Vera smiled at him through her crystal clear, watery eyes. It had been a long time since her baby blues had held a shine like it has right now. Though she had tried to be strong and kept up her fighting spirit, she could not deny that daily, it was wearing her down. And she was daily being worn down by the never-
ending battles and fights with the enemy forces. However, she had persisted only with the sole thought of that every single enemy they cut down, it was one enemy less for her so she could be closer to Gideon.
"I'm here for you now, Gideon... let's go home, Gid... I've missed you so much. Let's go home, my most beloved husband." She continued whispering to him as she walked closer and closer to him again, not caring if he was listening to her words. She just wanted to get her intention across.
"Yes, come over. Come to me..." his voice sounded so completely different now. It had changed to the other voice that she no longer recognized. It was so sinister and dark that it made Vera pause in her advance to him. Shivers crawled under her skin as fear was aroused within her. That was not her Gideon's beautiful voice. Still, Vera chose to keep going. She continued taking steps forward, trusting in her faith that her Gideon was still within his body. She wanted to believe that he was also fighting from within to get out to her.
She had finally found him. There was no way she would be willing to back out just because she was scared. No amount of fear would make her leave him alone. Nothing on earth or in hell would stop her from advancing!
"No! Stop right there! I'll kill you!!!" he growled louder, warning her as his dark magic was a wave of miasma lashing out uncontrollably around him, threatening to scare her away. But the voice she was hearing this time... it was Gideon's.
That had confirmed it. Gideon was trying to fight the darkness back that was within himself and that was why there seemed to be two voices coming from him, as though they were fighting over for full control of himself.
When she did not stop advancing, he shouted and lashed his dark magic crazily around him as though he was creating a protective shield around him for her to not get close to him. He looked like a mad man, losing his mind. However, it was said that none of the lashes of dark magic hit Vera even as she advanced.
Watching him fighting so hard with himself broke Vera's heart over and over. But listening to him and stepping away also was not an option for her. She could feel it in her gut that this was the only chance she would ever have to get Gideon back with her. She felt like if she failed her attempt this time, she would forever regret it. It would be over for her.
The things she saw in that moment during their mating ceremony came back to her and she used them as oil to fuel the fire that was already raging within her. She was not going to lose him like what she saw in her vision. She was not going to go through all that pain of losing him. Never again. She would do anything, everything. Whatever it takes. She was not going to come out of this alone. It was either they came out together or not at all.
"Gideon..." she called out hopefully.
As Vera bravely approached the wall of dark miasma that he had created around him and tried to cross it, he lashed his magic straight towards her.
