Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (read books for money TXT) 📕

me! Please.” I cried out loud while the pain had already started to overtake my entire body bit by a bit, making it beyond difficult for me to tolerate any longer, not even for the slightest second.

No, I was never that weak, neither any kind of pain could ever bother me that much. I did get hurt and bled innumerable times before but no physical pain was great enough to make me beg for help, not even once in my entire life till now.

I was born and grown up to be strong. No pain could ever break me in the past, no matter how immense it was.

But this time, fate had slapped me so hard once again and showed me how weak I could be at certain times. Fate had turned me into some helpless one indeed. And I was suffering.

“What do I do Sam? What happened to you?” Kaith panicked seeing me in such a condition, as the sight of me begging him to make the pain fade away, was new to him as well.

“I...umm.. Kazan... Kazan bit me. No, he marked me actually.” I struggled to form a single word out of my mouth as the tremendous pain kept increasing even further. I was almost balled up on my bed due to the menacing pain. I kept my knees bent and held them together close to my chest, attempting to cease the pain, but it seemed that all was for nothing.

“Don't tell me you are in heat, are you?” His completely shocking voice confirmed to me that this time I did something stupid indeed.

It took just one mistake. Or maybe two.

And I had to pay like this way.

“Maybe, yes.” I could not think anymore about what would Kaith say for my stupidity as such...for letting Kazan mark me that easily without thinking what it was going to cost me later. But little did he know that it was not me but Kazan who chose to mark me without knowing what consequences I would have to go through within just a few days. Or is it exactly what Kazan wanted to happen?

“Does he know? I mean did you let him know who you are actually? Does he even know that you are in heat for him? Sam, tell me.” Kaith asked with a lot of worries while he made sure to stroke my hairs and my back, attempting to help me through the pain. But how do I tell him that his touch was making it even more difficult and harder to endure.

“No... No, he does not know who I am yet, and he does not even know that I am in heat. And he should never know.” I barely said in-between my heavy breaths as the pain was even making it difficult for me to breathe properly.

My whole body was like being pierced with sharp needles for a million times over and over again, with no intention to cease ever.

No, the pain was not like this much intense before. As after I got marked, it was only a bit of irritation was all that I started to feel. But little did I know that the slightest bit of irritation would turn into such terrible pain in no time. It was like the pain kept increasing with each passing second announcing that it was not at all going to go away unless a certain need was fulfilled.

Yes, mating.

Which I could never do.

So, except enduring the pain, I had nothing left to do right now. But it was becoming harder for me to hold myself strong with each passing second while I was feeling like I was about to die with such pain due to my heat.

“Why are you being so stubborn, Sam? You know very well that the pain is never going to stop tormenting you unless Kazan comes to help you out. And you even know that in the next moment the pain will not lessen but become even greater than before and you will suffer more and more. So, what do you want, Sam? As a friend, I just can not watch you in such pain like this, while I can clearly see that telling Kazan about everything and letting him help you is the best way out right now.” Kaith started to yell with a lot of frustration and he was no wrong as I knew what else was coming up next.

But it was just that I could never afford to face Kazan as Summer.

“No. Please.” It was all that I could say for now as I had no strength left at all to form any more words in order to argue with Kaith.

I kept my eyes closed but tears did not stop at all to fall down, soaking the bed underneath.

I was in no condition to know what Kaith was thinking or what he was feeling right now, as the pain was becoming almost intolerable to me.

But little did I know that fate had other plans which were going to flip my entire world completely in no time.

I was lying on my bed all curled up while Kaith kept stroking my back with no idea how he could make me feel better for at least a little bit.

“Should I call Jenny here?” He asked even when he knew that she was still at school and was attending the classes which she just could not afford to miss. But Kaith did stay back and skipped his school today for me, only to stay beside all the time.

“No. Don't bother her. No one could do anything now.” I asked Kaith not to disturb Jenny's schedule when I already knew that no one was of any help to me right now. I even asked Kaith not to miss his classes but as if he ever listens to me.

“But...” He wanted to say
