CHAPTER 261

  Sophia’s POV

  I was rubbing Lex’s back softly. My heart was racing like crazy.

  “Is something wrong with Lex?” I asked, trying to turn my head so I could look at my mom. “What is going on, mom?”

  I couldn't move much because Lex was holding me too tightly. I couldn't see my mom’s face clearly, but what I did see had me even more worried than before. I tightened my arms around Lex and kept my eyes on my mom.

  “Alex is okay, honey,” my mom said and I relaxed immediately. “It’s not about him.”

  As long as Lex was okay, everything would be okay.

  “Who is it about then?” I heard Hunter ask. “What the hell happened?”

  Lex placed a hand on my head and pressed me even closer to him.

  “It’s about your darkness, Fia,” Lex said, his voice trembling. “It didn’t leave. It’s still here.”

  I froze completely.

  What?

  “I can still feel it inside you, honey,” my mom added and I felt her hand on my back. “We got you back, but we didn’t get rid of it.”
