Chapter 4: It wasn’t about,Selene...
Xavier POV
I jerked awake, clasping my head with both hands as my ears rang.
It was a piercing, echo... that resonated through every part of my body. Beside me was Belinda naked and tangled with the sheets on the bed. I tried to stand but fell on the nightstand table beside the bed, crashing into the lamp. The movement woke Belinda up.
"Xavier, are you alright?" she rushed to my side.
Her voice sounded afar. Trying to still the ringing in my ears, I roused myself from the ground and staggered out of the room towards Selene's bedroom, I needed her.
"Selene!" I called under my breath pushing the door, open but what greeted me was a messy bed and no sign of Selene.
Selene never leaves her bed messy.
Groaning in pain, still holding my head, I turned back and staggered out of the room. I met Belinda watching me with concern in her eyes.
"Xavier, what's wrong with you? Should I get the pack doctor?" she inquired anxiously.
I pushed past her, trying to pick up Selene's scent which filled the corridor. Tracing it, I came out of the house onto the terrace and lost it completely.
"Selene," I screamed into the morning, getting frustrated by the ringing in my ears that wouldn't stop.
