Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Chapter 83

My fangs and claws extend and my eyes turn black as Lex yanks me back and pushes forward, taking control of my body.I struggle to pull her back, but she is too strong.I can’t stop her as she lunges forward and grabs Tessa by her neck.

A vision comes to my mind as my skin contacts hers.

We are on a battlefield.

Tessa’s eyes are an endless black abyss as she swings a mace at my head, but I duck and avoid it, except for a small graze across my forehead from one of the spikes.

The momentum turns her body and I catch her gripping her back against my chest.I watch myself slit Tessa’s throat, letting her body fall at my feet.Her expressionless green eyes stare up at me.

The vision fades and another comes forward.She and I struggling against each other in a bell tower.She stabs a long silver blade into the side of my abdomen and stands back with a disgusting smile.Her wolf’s black eyes again at the surface.

The pain is excruciating, making me drop to my knees.

She chuckles dryly and walks away.

One of her legs is dragging behind her with an injury.

Once her back is to me, I hear myself recite an incantation over and over, under my breath, 'nullam dolorem senserit.

[Feel no pain.Feel no fear]'.

I climb to my feet and rush at her, grabbing her by the waist.I keep running until we both sail through the tower window.

The Cathedral of Notre Dame rushes past my vision until everything goes dark.

A third vision flashes.
