Blurred Lines Chapter 8

To say that that morning was hell was the biggest understatement of my life.
The weeks that followed made it seem like nothing. Owen and I ignored each other as much as possible and our interaction was limited to a signature here, or a longing look. Though who was giving the longing looks was debatable. It had been six weeks, ten hours, and 27 minutes to the day since he left me burning with need against my jeep and I was going crazy.

I missed our banter, and the sexual tension. What used to drive me crazy, I now craved. I wasn't blind to the looks I was getting from those around me. Barry was always careful around both of us and I felt bad we had him walking on eggshells. Claire, was trying her best to make sure the hours I spent away from him were completely Owen free. Alan, was getting more and more concerned of my exhausted tone in our talks and made sure I knew he was worried. I couldn't help that I haven't gotten that much sleep in the past few weeks.

I had begun to notice my skin lacked luster, and my clothes were beginning to get a bit big on me. Despite Claire's best efforts of stocking my apartment with food, I didn't usually eat unless she was with me. I had never felt so low in my life. Owen Grady had completely turned me inside out, and he is too busy ignoring me to notice. It was what I wanted originally, how I never knew I could be so wrong.

I knew it was dangerous for me to be so exhausted and malnourished around a pack of ravenous raptors but I could honestly care less. The morning started off like any other, I woke up after another restless evening and showered. I threw the steaming cup of coffee from Claire down the sink and took the empty cup with me knowing she would check my apartment. I got dressed, and got in my jeep. When I arrived at the paddock I dropped off my gear and went to remove my hat. My mouth fell open when I didn't feel my hat and from behind I hear Barry enter our shared office.
"Charlie…honey you don't look so good, and where's your hat?" he asks.

I scratch my head and turn to look at him, "I forgot it?" I ask him surprised myself I forgot my hat.

"I think you should go home. Your eyes aren't focused and you never forget your hat." He tells me firmly.

I scoff moving around him, "I'm fine Barry."

For a moment Barry seems like he's about to protest but doesn't. I go up the stairs toward the deck and walk out to start my morning notes. Behind me I feel hands come to rest on my waist, and I stiffen. I had been touched my Owen enough to know these were not his hands. I look around the deck and notice I am the only one up here.

"Seems were finally alone…doctor…" a moist breath says in my ear.

I close my eyes to stop from vomiting, Hoskins has his hands all over me. He turns me around and I back away further and further before I feel the bars of the paddock behind me. He follows close behind me, and I try my best to move away. Hoskins hands are on my arms and he squeezes me until it hurts.

"You don't know how long I've wanted you…" he tells me.

I have to get away, I look left and right and see no way out. The only way out is…down.

I keep my eyes on Hoskins, and move my hand behind my back toward the latch that unlocks the bar behind me. When I feel the latch give way I hear pounding footsteps come running up the stairs. I turn to the right and stare into the angry eyes of Owen. But, that anger is not directed towards me but the monster touching me. I know it's too late, and Owen's eyes shoot to mine, his eyes widen and he starts running screaming my name as I drop down and into the raptor paddock.

My back slams down onto the floor of the paddock and everything hurts. I will be lucky to get out of here with nothing broken…if I get out of here alive at all. I become deaf to everything but the raptors who are creeping out of the shadows and moving toward me.

"This is how it ends," I whisper to myself.

"You don't get to leave me," Owen says moving to stand in front of me his arms out in front of him.

I look up at him, and back to the raptors. My head snaps behind me and I see Barry crouching down before the gate motioning to me to crawl to him. I shake my head no vigorously before looking back up at Owen. Owen spares a glance down at me and nods smiling gently.

That was all the reassurance I needed before I turned on my stomach and begin army crawling to the gate. When I am within grabbing distance, Barry reaches out and pulls me the rest of the way. I groan and sit up slowly looking toward Owen again.
"Shut the gate," Owen commands.

"Are you crazy?!" Barry shouts at him.

"Trust me," Owen tells him, his voice never wavering.

Barry walks over to the lock and punches in the code to let down the gate. The alarms begin blaring letting you know the gate is closing and in a split second Owen turns and ducks under the last of the gate. The snapping of raptor jaws sound behind him against the gate.

Owen never stops moving and before I can comprehend what is happening his mouth is on mine. His arms are wrapped securely around mine, and I can feel the relief in his body before he pulls away.

I whine and Owen smiles down at me, "Don't worry, I am never letting you out of my sight ever again," he tells me.

I smile in his embrace shutting my eyes. Owen lifts me from the floor into his arms and over toward my jeep where Barry is smiling holding open the door. Owen puts me in the passenger's seat and buckles me in before jogging around to the driver's side. He stops for a moment to leave directions to Barry before he gets in, and we drive off.

"I am taking you to the infirmary," he tells me.

"NO!" I shout before whispering, "Take me home please," I look out the window not waiting for his reply.

"Alright," he whispers.

In a few minutes we are arriving in front of my bungalow and he is carrying me inside. Owen sits me on the bed and starts taking off my clothes. I wanted to protest but the determined look in his eyes told me it would do me no good. When I was naked he began running a hot shower, and taking off his own clothes. Owen lifts me into his arms and carries me into the shower. There was nothing sexual about the act but it felt amazing to have his hands on me. His fingers ran over every inch of my body looking for injury and when he was satisfied I was alright he turned off the water, grabbed a towel and dried every inch of me before carrying me and putting me in bed. I thought he was leaving when he went to my kitchen to grab some pain killers and water. But, I was pleasantly surprised when he crawled into bed with me and wrapped his arms around me pulling me against his back and his face inhaling my scent buried deep in my neck.

"Owen…" I whisper, "thank you, for saving my life today."

I can feel Owen take a deep breath and let it out slowly, "you scared me to death today Charlie, I thought I had lost you," he whispers back, "when I saw Hoskins touching you…I wanted to kill him, I thought maybe he was what you wanted until you looked at me and dropped into the raptor paddock."

I shiver thinking of that monsters hands on me and Owen's grip tightens. "How could you ever think I would want him?" I whisper, "Owen…I thought I was going to die today…" I trail off.

Owen turns me around to face him, "I will never let that happen, you are safe with me baby," he kisses me gently.
"You misunderstand me," I whisper looking into his eyes, "I thought I was going to die today…I need you to make me feel alive," recognition flashes in Owen's eyes and he nods before moving his mouth over mine and reminding me whose the alpha.
