and shocked to scream. When she hit the ground, a low oomph exited her mouth, but it was buried
beneath Stefan, who had landed like dead weight on top of her.
It was dark and Sidney couldn t tell who had assaulted them. A needle entered her neck, and soon,
the world swam in front of her. Sidney was surprised that Stefan had not caught the scent of the
man and that she heard him.
 We got them.
Sidney heard nothing more as darkness claimed her.
Chapter Eight
Natasha strolled into the dinning room and frowned. Dedrick was sitting at the table reading his
paper, Skyler was eating her breakfast, but Stefan and Sidney were not there. They weren t in their
bedroom either. She had stopped there to check on them before coming down.
 Have you seen Stefan? she asked Dedrick, heading to the kitchen doorway and checking inside.
 Isn t he still up in his room? Dedrick answered. He glanced over his paper at her with a grin.
 After all, from what I heard they were going at it pretty hard.
Natasha gave him a dirty look.
 I heard them go out back late last night, Skyler put in.  But I never heard them come back in.
 Shit, I hope he didn t keep her out there all night. Natasha turned to go back into the kitchen and
head to the back door.
 Language, Mother. Dedrick chuckled.  It isn t you.
Natasha stopped, cocking her head to one side.  Something isn t right.
 I m sure they are fine, Dedrick closed his paper and stood up. He walked up to her and kissed her
on the cheek.  You just worry too much.
Natasha shrugged him off and turning she headed to the front door. She opened the thick double
oak doors and felt her heart drop into her stomach.  Dedrick! she yelled.
 Mother, I m sure they are just fine, Dedrick sighed, coming out of the dining room.
 Then explain to me why the gates are open after we locked them last night? She turned her head,
observing him, dead of all emotions.
 What? He stood next to her, glancing out at the iron gates that were wide open.
 That is something your brother wouldn t have done.
 We need to find out where he is and fast, Dedrick said.
 God, Dedrick. Natasha looked back at him.  What if . . .
 Don t! Dedrick snapped sharply, his eyes darkening.  We don t know if he has them or not.
Stefan could have taken Sidney to that park he likes.
Natasha s eyes sparkled with her anger.  Stefan took his daughter. Why wouldn t that man come
back to take my son?

She was running. Tears were coming down her face blinding her to where she was going. Her mother was leaving. He
was taking her away, never to see her again. Sidney ran from him, but his arms wrapped around her young frame in
an iron grip and yanked her away from the car and her mother.
 Mom! Sidney screamed, struggling to get out of her father s grasp.
The door shut, the car pulled away, and Sidney screamed for her, she cried for her. How could he send her away? How
could he do that to her mother?
The fog left, and Sidney found herself again standing in front of the casket. She looked down at her mother s peaceful
face. She died eight months after she left, died trying to give her father the son he always wanted. Sidney heard her
father on the phone that morning. He was more upset over the death of his son than of his wife.
 It s all your fault!
Sidney turned toward her father. His hands grabbed her arms brutally, shaking her, and then out of nowhere, a hand
connected with her cheek. More shaking came, then a harder grip on her arms.
 It should have been you Sidney!
 Sidney! A loud banging caused an irritating ache in her head.  Sidney! Wake up! Open your eyes,
damn it!
There it was. That angry voice again, accusing her, yelling at her. Sidney shook her head.  No, she
mumbled.  It wasn t me. I didn t do it. It shouldn t have been me! she cried out.
 Sidney! Please open your eyes.
Sidney cracked her eyes open and shuddered when a bright, white light assaulted her. Sidney tried to
move but couldn t. Her limbs felt like dead weight and her headache was increasing by the second. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
