Narika: The Ghost Bride-Chapter 225 - Two Hundred And Twenty-Five:A New Host.
When Adrian woke up, the first thing he could see was a crimson red chandelier, followed by red walls, with black stripes coated in a red environment. It was giving full occultic vibes that made goosebumps run across his spines when the events of what happened earlier crossed his mind.
"Camille.’’He whispered, and tried sitting up. That was when he noticed that his wrists were bonded to the sides, he did know that he was not lying on a bed because his bavk was stiff as if he had been asleep for a long time.
He tugged at the chain at his sides, looking at his sides before meeting silver eyes that he didn’t know were seated on a circle while mumbling stuff to herself. She looked like a witch, no, she was not a witch because he couldn’t see her iris and neither was she bothered that he was now awake.
She looks like she’s awake and at the same time asleep. But that was not what was important, he was worried about Camille. She was not in sight and he didn’t know what that man with the red eyes had done to her and their baby. It made him over worried because she’s pregnant and doesn’t need to be stressed.
He tugged at the chain on his ankle, and that was before he saw the witch appear at his sides, carrying some calabash that was cladded in red clothes, while moving it around his head.
"Hey! What were you doing? Let me go, where’s Camille?" Adrian yelled at the lady, but she wasn’t bothered by his questions and continued with what she was doing.
Then he raised his wrists up, and pushed the calabash she was holding. The chains allowed him to raise his hands up to that level and it found the ground, before the haze the witch was in got broken.
"What have you done?" She shrieked, her voice so loud like a banshee that Adrian felt his eyes bleeding. What is she?
Was this some secret occult or what?
He doesn’t understand why he’s being bound as if he was to be sacrificed or what, until the door was opened and familiar voices seized everything that was happening between him and the lady.
"You were meant not to hurt him, Sandra. Why don’t you all listen?" Lucuis said, raising his hands up as the witches lips were sealed and Adrian finally let go of his ear, before laying back down in where he was, sweat pooled across his face as instant dizziness found him.
"I’m sorry, my Lord. He was being bothersome."The young witch apologized, when Lucius’ released her from his bondage and walked up to where Adrian was lying. He was too tired to talk. All he could do was to glare at him which made Lucius laugh.
Yes!
He was the perfect host for his dad, he could feel another being lurking in the shadows trying to break free from where Adrian has locked him.
"Let him out, the darkness in you. That’s all i need from you." Lucuis told him, laughing hysterically before patting his cheeks turning to step aside for the witch to continue with the binding potion she was preparing, but Adrian held him back.
"Ca..Camille, wh..where is she? Let her..go." He stuttered, feeling his body getting weaker and weaker, as if he was totally losing control of his being.
He could feel Killa laughing, trying to break free while using his vulnerability to hack into his mind and alter his comeback, but he still held on because of Camille. He wanted to know if they were okay.
Killa wasn’t happy at the fact that she was carrying his baby, no, he wasn’t happy that he’s undergoing treatment and he’s got Camille by his side too. He wasn’t happy that he was finally setting his life normal and he’s becoming a faded memory.
Lucuis did nothing but smiled at the weak Adrian, before bending down to whisper." Don’t worry, you are going to be the one to kill her. I wouldn’t want to soak my hand in that innocent blood right?" He laughed, his words made Adrian’s grip on him tighten,but that was like a mere breeze that passed by him because he removed his hand before moving away.
"Let’s begin, Casandra." Lucuis told the witch, before she started some incantation that continued making Adrian weak. He tried fighting back, heck! He wanted to save Camille and his child.
But then it was too much, everything hurt when he tried fighting back.
"Don’t fight back, that way you are going to make things easier for yourself." Lucuis chided him, staying aside as he watched the way the witch was preparing him to take in his father’s soul.
"C..Camille." That was all Adrian kept saying, what he remembered lastly was her beautiful smile at finding out that he wasn’t rejecting her and their baby, until everything became dark.
Inplace of him, Killa took a hold of his body, his iris changed to purple and he sat up instantly. The chain trying to get loose at his actions.
"It’s you."Lucuis acknowledged him, coming close since he knew that this version of Adrian wouldn’t be of any problems to them.
"How did you do it? Get rid of him, what are you?" Killa asked, a psychotic smile in his face as Lucuis tilted his head to the side examining him.
"It doesn’t matter, all you need to do is to stay still while i get what i deserve from saving you."Lucius said, trying to move but Killa snapped, tugging one of the chains loose from its hook.
"Answer me!" He yelled at Lucius, but what he didn’t coming was him wrapping his hand around his neck and getting him to stay still while Casandra came along to inject inside him all the life forces Rowan was living upon, then did Lucuis leave him.
Adrian went unconscious instantly, before he started floating in the air. The chain around him gets loose as every pillar of the room starts shaking. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Casandra had to move back in fear, while Lucuis stood still watching everything happening in delight, before Adrian finally landed on the floor, his head raising up as his red eyes met Lucuis.
"Welcome back, father." He said, bowing down to him but that was stupid because he didn’t acknowledge him before rushing to the scary witch, and drank her dry while Lucuis wondered how on earth he’s going to control this until the witches council gets a whiff of this.
