Chapter 13 439 When I came back out of the bathroom , he had set the food out on my desk , and pulled his chair next to mine . He was leaning back in his chair , looking at something on his phone . " Why did you do that ? " I asked him as I sat next to him , looking at the food covering my desk . There was a little of everything , spaghetti , tacos , sushi , and a build your own sub platter . " And why did you get so much food ? " " Because I didn't know what you had a taste for , so I got a variety . " He said as he started to put food on a plate , then set it in front of me . " Are you going to eat too ? " I asked him before taking a bite of the spaghetti . Something about it tasted off , like something was put in it . I didn't want to complain , especially after he went through all of this trouble to have it brought to me , so I continued to eat it . " If you wish, kitten . " He said as he made another plate for himself . He followed suit and took a bite of the spaghetti as well . But the second he tasted it , he spit it out and swiped the plate off the table . " How much of that did you eat ? " He asked me as he dialed a number on his phone , his eyes wild as he waited for the person on the other side to answer . りく w x y y x x 2747 " A couple of bites … Why ? What's wro- " I started to ask him , but stopped as I suddenly puked , mostly on the desk , but some of it got on him . I didn't have the time to feel bad when I doubled over in pain , feeling like someone had put my insides in a blender . The pain was unbearable as I screamed , holding my stomach . He didn't answer as he picked me up , then suddenly we were outside , before I could even grasp what had happened , we were in a hospital with Damien setting me on a bed , yelling at a doctor to come and help me . " Damien , what happened ? " I asked , trying to blink away the dizziness . Humans weren't meant to move as quickly as a vampire could , and my body did not agree with it at all . " I'm sorry , little one . But I couldn't wait to drive here , you've been poisoned . " he said as a few people rushed into my room , barking orders back and forth .

When I finally came to my senses , I sat up straight in bed and looked around , " Damien ? " I whimpered out , trying hard not to cry when I didn't see him in the room with me . I hadn't realized exactly how much I cared about him , until his sudden lack 1/2 20:05 Fri , Aug 22 Chapter 13 of presence made me want to cry . Before I could blink , he was right next to me , pushing me to lay back in bed . " Lay down , Bast . You need to rest now . " He said softly as he pulled the phone away from his ear and set it down on the table next to me . " It was a common poison , so you've already received the antidote . You will be okay . " He said as he kissed me on the forehead . " Who ? " I asked him , trying to blink away my drowsiness . " I'm going to find out , and I promise they will never have the chance to try it ever again . " he said , taking my hand as he sat next to me , then picked up his phone again . " Sam , you know what to do . " he spoke into the receiver , then ended the call . " I'm so sorry . " I cried out as the tears forced themselves out , when I saw the puke on his suit jacket . His eyes opened wide as he looked down at me , trying to figure out why I had suddenly started bawling " Bast , kitten , what's wrong ? Why are you crying ? Did I say something wrong ? " he said caressing the side of my face so softly , I couldn't help crying harder , making him even more confused . Chapter Comments
