Chapter 165: New Ability
[Rose’s P.O.V.]
“Baby, tell me, what did you dream about?”
Edward was still holding me in his arms, gently patting my back. My breathing eventually slowed to a normal rate. Once I was calmer and more clear-headed, I realized that the baby was still in my womb, not my arms.
“It’s nothing. It was just a nightmare. It wasn’t real.”
I didn’t want to recall that nightmare because it was just too painful. My child was almost taken away from me in the dream.
“Tell me, what did you dream about?”
“Alonso, I already said that it was just a nightmare. I don’t want to talk about it anymore. I’m very sorry that I broke your wall because of it.”
“This was caused by your ability, wasn’t it?”
“Yes, because someone was attacking me and my child.”
“Rose, it wasn’t a dream. But if your ability was activated and had left traces in reality, it means that your subconscious was completely awake and that you weren’t really asleep at that time.”
“What? That’s impossible.”
“I think it’s a vision, Rose. You might have clairvoyance.”
“Clairvoyance? Alonso, I’ve never had this ability before.”
“It might have something to do with your pregnancy. Tell me what you dreamt of. What did you see?”
“Okay. I was sleeping. Then, I felt someone touching my face but it wasn’t Alpha.” I felt Edward’s grip on my hand grow stronger.
“I opened my eyes and found that Alpha wasn’t lying next to me. I was in a very dark room and a man was standing next to my bed. It was terrifying, just like in those horror movies. I realized that my stomach was gone and there was a crib not far away. The man said he had finally found me. I had no idea what had happened. I just used my powers to attack him and knocked him against the wall. But he could appear anywhere in the room at any time. His eyes were as red as blood. Then I heard the baby cry. I ran over and picked up my child. Somehow, I just knew it was mine. But that b*stard tried to take my baby, so I attacked him again. In the end, he left and the nightmare ended, thank God.”
“Did that guy say anything else? Other than that he finally found you?”
“He said that by marrying me, he could produce the most powerful offspring. And he told me resistance was futile since I would eventually belong to them. He also told me that my child would bring a disaster. He just kept wanting to take it away!”
“Them? Are you sure he spoke as a collective?”
“Yes, Alonso, I’m sure. Every word he said shocked and angered me. And every time he appeared, there was be a puff of smoke. Who the hell is this creepy, disgusting man?”
“Did you see his face?”
“No, I can only see his blood-red eyes. I couldn’t even see the face of my child except for the blonde hair.”
“Rose, I think that your clairvoyance has been activated. And that man is most likely Nicholas.” When Alonso mentioned this name, I felt my heart skip a few beats.
“So that d*mn b*stard has finally come for Rose?” I saw how angry Edward was. I could even feel Champion stirring in his body.
“If your child was already born in your vision, then you still have time until it becomes reality. When I had my vision, Nicholas had already appeared near your pack in North America. You have to thank Susanna as her magic has been very successful in disguising you. Whether it is your appearance or the traces of your scent and abilities, Susanna has helped us make it very difficult for Nicholas to find you. Thankfully, vampires are naturally weak in seeing through the magic of witches and wizards.”
“Since you say that this is a vision, he will find me eventually, right?”
I looked at Alonso. His expression was no longer as casual as usual. This made me realize that this dream, or rather, this vision, was very important. I was eager to know the answer because my child and I were in huge danger. I would never put my child or my mate in such a situation, even if it cost me my life.
