Evil New Wife Seduces Hubby 157 The Nightmare

"Save...me… I…"

Loud crying sounds of a boy rang in her ears as his pitiful voice pleaded for help.

Zhen Xiu could not see his face in the darkness but she could definitely feel his pain. After all, it was all too similar. 

Some time ago she too had felt these kinds of emotions and troubles in her life. This was familiar.

Too much familiar!

The cry of help.

The hope in that lonely voice.

She had felt it all. This was not new to her. It was a part of her dark past which she had almost forgotten because of the present happiness.

Life has to go on but in that process, we should not forget about our past, the foundation which laid our current future, in all the delight and joy, Zhen Xiu forgot everything bad and hurtful events of her past.

But the call of that boy awakened her soul once again and brought back all those painful memories that she was trying to forget.

The way she wanted her father's acceptance, how she did everything that she can do to gain the approval of her peers, she too wanted to be happy with them.

Zhen Xiu was slowly crawling back into her deepest painful memories as she heard that crying voice.

It was gripping her heart so much that she was not able to separate herself from it. The boy continued to cry but she was still lost in her past. The inner demon in her heart that remained because of her brutal experiences was showing his ugly head again when she was trying to embrace the happiness in her life.

"Agh! Save me!"

"Ugh! It's hurting…"

Zhen Xiu gasped her breath as she tried to reach that voice. She wanted to help him. She did not want anyone to suffer like her again. Moreover, this was the voice of the little boy, she couldn't allow it.

She shouted. "I... WILL... SAVE...YOU…"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Her throat was dry as she gathered herself together trying to save that distressed boy.

"Umm...I…"

However, words were not coming out of her mouth as she felt her energy drained by an unknown force. She tried to move forward but couldn't do it.

She was scared.

She was immobile. 

She couldn't speak. Her mouth was dry.

She could only wait and hear his cries.

It was horrible. 

Her heart was terrorized. 

At that moment, when she was about to fall into an abyss of her heart's inner demon, a cold soothing voice reached her ears. "Wake up! Xiu!"

She felt cold but it was comfortable. 

It was like home.

A place where she belonged to, where everything was fine and good,she had happiness, her life was filled with hope and dreams.

She had a family that loved her.

She was not alone. Not anymore!

"Love! Can you hear me?" The cold voice was distressed, he was troubled for her. She could feel it.

The feeling of helplessness disappeared all at that moment when she felt her husband's presence in that cold dark place.

It was Lu Jian. 

He was here to save her.

The feeling of depending on someone other than herself emerged in her heart. She felt the care and love in that calming voice of Lu Jian. 

Love!

A strange feeling!

This feeling was different. It was different from the love she felt for her mother, her family, her friends, it was completely on a different level.

Zhen Xiu was not aware of it but knew that it was different. She could feel the sweetness in her heart. She was free. She was alive. It was a different feeling.

"Wake up! It's a nightmare. Get up! I am here. Open your eyes."

The soothing voice of Lu Jian calmed her down instantly and she was able to breathe properly. It was a lot easier than before when she was trapped in that darkness. Her husband's voice might be cold but it gave her immense strength and she was ready to face the darkness in front of her.

Slowly, very slowly, Zhen Xiu opened her eyes. The bright light of sun rays on the wall gave her a sense of security.

It was not dark. Not anymore!

She was not alone.

She turned towards Lu Jian's side in the hopes of seeing his calming eyes. It was the only source of hope and protection for her. After all, he was responsible for s.n.a.t.c.hing her back again to the present.

Otherwise, she feared that her inner demon would have controlled her soul.

"Thank you." Zhen Xiu choked on her words as she sincerely felt the love from her husband. This time she honestly felt something for him.

Lu Jian's hand continue to caress her as she e whimpered in pain. The nightmare must be horrible for her to behave like this. He didn't know what she faced but one thing that he was clear about was that he didn't like watching these tears in her eyes.

It was bothering him.

After all, she was the only sun in his cold life. The one and the only person that sincerely loved him to the point of losing her life. Before he was foolish to not believe in her genuine feelings for him and always tried to get away from her but now that everything is clear and open; he has realized about his feelings, he could not ignore her, remain indifferent to her.

He was aware that the one who loved him was not here anymore but he still liked her as she was just a part of her. He was scared to see her whimpering in pain and crying in her sleep. 

"Ss.h.!.+ Don't cry! I am here."

Lu Jian comforted her softly even if he was stiff while doing this as he didn't have any practice of comforting others.

It was difficult but not impossible. He was slowly trying to learn the duty of a husband.

Zhen Xiu was happy to be back again. She didn't want to lose the warmth of her current life. Her previous life was enough for her and she didn't want any more nightmarish memories. 

"Thank G.o.d you are here."

Lu Jian was surprised at her words but knew that it must be related to her bad dream. He was delighted to see the need in her eyes after so many days as until now she was always hot and cold towards him which resulted in him doubting his position in her heart.

"En, I am here. Don't be scared. It was just a bad dream." He softly kissed her eyes at tightly embraced her in his arms.
