The Daemon’s Eyes
CHAPTER 23

Logan's P.O.V

"How stupid could you get Alexa?!", I pounded a fist on the wall causing it to crack a bit.

I couldn't even look her in the eyes without attempting to rip her head off her body.

Everyone was silent for a bit as my eyes lowered to Sabrina's unconscious body.

I heard the bitch chuckle a bit. "What're you so mad about? She just passed out, it's not like she died"

"She almost stripped on the dance floor though", Tommy cupped his chin with his eyes in the distance. Alexa used her left hand to brush her hair, "I was watching, I would have stopped her in time"

"That's a lie...", my voice was deadly calm as I raised my head up. "She better wake up soon.... Or else.."

Her eyes narrowed at me, "Or else what? You're just some upper rank Daemon that feels he can boss everyone around!"

I decided to ignore her. Arguing at this point will prove a waste of energy.

Just wake up Sabrina.... Please wake up soon.

There was silence for a bit.

Tommy was floating above one couch.

Joe had his back on the wall as he puffed smoke at intervals.

Alexa had her arms folded under her breast like she was thinking about it hat she did. "What is she anyway?"

"What?", my left brow arched.

"I'd wanted to ask myself...", Tommy rolled over in the air.

Joe was silent.

Asif on signal, Sabrina's eyes twitched. "She's waking up". I decided to dodge the question after shifting some lose strings of hair from her face. Her eyes finally opened as she sat up in haste. Her sharp gaze met me and I understood what she meant.

"Yes, I understand". I nodded before bending over for her to get on my back.

"I don't get you two", Alexa queried.

The moment Sabrina wrapped her arms around my neck, I took a skip.

I just had to hope we'd make it in time, the time frame here compared to up there was a bit distorted. It was faster here...

In less than a minute we were falling upwards.... or should I say we were rising upwards?

It really seemed like an eternity for me this time.

Sabrina was too quiet today.

When we finally got to the surface, she jumped off my back and we both made our way into her room.

We both paused at the sight before us. The door seemed to have been rammed.... But by who?

"Wha... what's the meaning of this Logan?". Her eyes were fixed on the sight before us.

"I'm not sure....". Could it be Pride's doing? I don't think she's go out of her way to come to a place like this. Or could it be someone she sent? "Where the hell is my body?!!", She screamed with her head up Asif asking the universe.

"Calm down. Maybe someone stole it...".

She sent me a piercing gaze," So... this was your plan?!", I watched her laugh hysterically while closing the gap between us, "this was your plan all along!"

I couldn't help but cock a brow at her accusations. Yeah... I was sent to take control of her body, but I couldn't just bring myself to do it, "I don't know what you're tal-....", She cut me off with a slap before bursting into tears. "Sabrina..."

Covering her face with both hands, she let the tears pour out.

If it was Pride who took her body, it won't be possible to get it back again. But....

There was still a chance it could be someone else.

I hugged her. "Don't cry.... we'll find a way. I promise..", my arms around her tightened with determination.

"What way?!", She sniffled, "I'll be stuck as a ghost forever!"

I smiled tenderly at her words, "If that happens...... I'll be by your side forever...".She raised her face to meet my eyes, "I really care about you Sabrina". I kissed her forehead.

Some seconds went by before she took some steps back. "Okay, let's find out who took the body first".

I nodded. "It could be Jasper or your Father"

"That would actually be the best case scenario, the problem is getting back into the body". She gritted her teeth.

"I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get there", my hand was outstretched for her. "Let's hurry"

Hamilton (Sabrina's Father) P.O.V

I gulped before throwing my question at the doctor. "What do you mean she's not breathing?!!", I couldn't believe those words. She seemed fine at dinner yesterday! I'd rushed her to the nearest hospital after she assumedly passed out.

Just the thought of being alone felt like hell. Although we'd never been close, and I was the one to blame. I always knew someone would be home whenever I get back

"Sorry to say sir, but her heart had already stopped by the time you brought her in", the doctor was obviously keeping his distance from me.... Like he knew I was going to grab his collar if he got any closer. "We really couldn't do anything for her, I'm very sorry for your loss"

Two nurses came in with a white sheet to cover the body with.

I was dreaming right? Was she really dead?!

I shook my head before falling to my knees, and for the first time in years, I wept.

I wept like the day my wife died.
