I woke up to a kick to my stomach. I hunch over groaning in pain, "Get up you dirty Mongrel!" A short Bald headed Vampire man shouted at me. I was in some kind of room were the walls were all white and sound proof, there were no lights, no windows, no bed, just a small toilet in the far end of the room, no toiletries either, and one huge metal electric door, that can only be open from keypad. "Oh quit being a baby, I didn't kick you that hard, get up, the master wants us to start the Breaking."
"Breaking? What does that even mean?" I tried to stand up but was kicked back to the floor again.
"You'll see." He laughed as he used his card key to get out. I ran to the door but tripped as my legs felt weak from the wolfsbane they injected me with. I heard laughing from the outside of the room and I growled.
I have got to get out of here, wherever here is. I get up slowly and shakily from the floor. I walked over to the door to see if I can hear anything but, I couldn't. Frustrated I punched the wall and growled. My legs started wobbling and I had to lean into the wall for support.
Where's Davina? Where's Hardin? Wonder if they're locked up like I am too? What is this place exactly? I had a lot of questions but, I knew being locked up in here I won't get any, even if I was to ask about my friends I know they would not tell me. Maybe it's best that I don't speak of them at all in this place, who knows what they'll do if they know how I'm associated with them. I have to hide the fact that I'm in love with Davina, in case they try and use her to torture me somehow. I just have this feeling, something bad will happen.
I raise my right hand and gold sparks ignite around in the inside of my palm, I focused on growing it. The sparks electrified and grew then both my hands were covered with my golden electric power. Then I closed my fists and sagged to the floor, weakened. I needed food, water, and proper rest.
I also need to run. Ryder says.
I agreed, my wolf Ryder was also weakened from the Wolfsbane they've injected me with. I am also a Warlock and a Werewolf. Although I never told anyone. The only one who knows is my mother, but she went missing a long time ago. My dad knows, but my dad refuses to let me study magic and tried making me focus more on my wolf. It is why he also pushed me to try marry Sarah. My ex girlfriend.
For title, that's all he's into. My father, Owns big companies in Vancouver. That's where I ran away from, to more secluded areas where no one knew me. Back home everyone knows me, and wants me for something. Either to be my friend, or to use me for my money, or to sleep with me, or all. I hated the rich life, all eyes on you at all times, no privacy at all.
Now inside here, I wish for eyes on me to be able to help us all out of here. If they were close to- Of course, I should have tried it..
Dad? You there?
Nothing. Guess we're not in Vancouver or near. I shrugged. I could use my magic to send a message to him, but I feel it in my body, I am weak. I can't risk using it, would if I need it for whatever happens here. I sighed, I hate feeling so useless.
Davina, I wish I knew if you were safe. If I had mated with her, which I know I was close to doing, but she stopped me. I would have been able to communicate with her through mind link. I growled at myself again. Hating myself for not just taking her as mine. But, what Hardin has told me about her wanting to wait until marriage to have s*x, made me realize she's a virgin. So, knowing that, I won't pressure her at all. The way she reacts to me and the way our bodies react to eachother, is something I have never experienced with anyone before.
When I first met her, I felt the mate bond right away. I wanted and needed to be near her, but it also killed me to not tell her what I am. That's the first thing I wanted to tell her, but given that oath I made to the Alpha, I couldn't go back on my word with him. What he orders is impossible for werewolves to ignore. It's like a binding agreement, even if I try say it, I wouldn't be able to. Once we claimed our Alpha as leader, it's hard to betray him, we follow him and protect him. It killed me not to be able to Davina, I hated myself for not telling her first. If I had met her first before Zack, I would have told her the truth. It's different though, when we are mated and fully bonded. The Alpha thing, it's not so strong, but if he makes you yield or bare the neck or bend the knee, you have to obey. So far I don't know of anyone having to do that, or I have never seen it done. We still obey the Alpha when given orders by him when we are mated, but the Alpha would not ask you to lie to your partner without good reason.
I hear a beep from the door, I sit up straight and two guards wearing black clothes come in with chains, the put hand cuffs on my wrists. My wrists burn with the silver metal and Wolfsbane on them, they get me up on my feet and push me out the door. I stagger as the Wolfsbane is still working it's way out of my system, they take me down a hospital like hall with similar doors like mine all the way down to double doors at the end of the hallway. We turned right down another hallway with the same look to it, they opened a door to the left and pushed me through again. In the room was no windows at all, sound proof just like the others, but this one had a chair in the middle of the room and bunch of tools they usually use for surgery at the far wall on a table, and also weapons on another table beside them. On the other side of the wall in the corner were vials of different color liquids as if someone has been doing experiments in here. On the ceiling there was another chain hanging with a down to the floor and on the other end of the chain was what looked to be a collar with small spikes on the inside poking out all around it. My eyes widened.
Before I can even react, they put me on the chair and quickly put the collar around my neck, I felt the sharp needles at the tip of my skin, not yet slicing it. They put my arms tied me tighter to the back on my chair. Then, they both stood by the door on each side and waited.
Then there was a healing noise coming from the door and the Bald headed man from before came walking in with a tall blonde man who had his hair in a man bun and was wearing a black suit came in. He smiled and nodded at me before he spoke. "My name is Demetri, I am the owner of this establishment. These are my men that have brought you here. The reason you are here, is to help me build my army. I heard of people trying to plot against me." He smirked at that.
"What's that got to do with all this?" I asked gesturing with my head to the stuff on the tables.
He smiled, showing his fangs, "That my good friend, is what's going to break you. Tell me, are you pledge or oath bound to another coven, pack, or tribe?"
"Yes." I said.
"Which sort?" he asked.
"A Pack." I told him.
"Good, good. We are off to a good start. By being honest, you'll make this thing go easy and much faster. Then we don't have to torture the information out of you." He smiled mischievously. "Now, since you are Oath bound to a pack, there's only one way to break that Oath. We must break you until you say the words, I know how loyal you wolves are, which means you all live by honor, and it won't be easy breaking your Oath. So, the only way is to break you to the brink of death, that will be the only way you can save yourself by stating you are no longer Oath bound to your pack and then you will join mine as a soldier. If not, you die." He says as he nods for one of his guards to go ahead.
Before I can talk again, the man slices me across the chest with a knife laced with Wolfsbane he got from the table. Stinging pain right across my chest had me grunting and closing my eyes. "What was that for?!" I growled in anger. I wanted to fight back, I trashed against the chains and then, another stinging pain went across my chest.
"Do you work guys and let me know when he begs you to stop." Demetri says and he lifts my chin to his face and sneered, "Swear your allegiance to me and you will be set free."
"But I won't be free from you will I?"
"Death will be your only freedom." He said and let go of my face and orders, "Give him everything you've got until he breaks!"
Like that he walked out and left me with his guards and the Bald headed man. He smiles at me then grabs a vial on the table and splashes it at my face. I roar with pain as the acidic liquid burns my face and stings my eyes. "Again!" he shouts at his men.
More slashes we're cutting across my chest, then I felt a someone Stabbing my legs with a silver knife. I yell and trash against the chair as pain radiated through my body as they cut and stabbed me in places over and over. "Alright enough!" He yells I tried to see what they were doing but my eyes were still burning from the acidic liquid he splashed me with awhile ago. Relief flooded through me as they stopped what they were doing. But it was short lived. Next they tightened the spikes in my collar, I felt them going into my neck slowly, causing blood to pool down my neck. "What do you say now?" The Bald headed guy shouts at me.
I didn't say a thing. They can torture me all they want but I will not swear my name to work for these bastards. I will not yield. We must find mate...
I know that but, I cannot leave Davina's pack and join there's, if I do, then there's no way I'll be allowed to leave if and when I have to. I have to fight back and try survive this somehow.
Then, I will fight with you until we find our way back to Davina and Celine...
Celine, Davina's wolf, oh how I wish I knew if she was still alive out there, I wish I could mink Link her, but I cannot. I have to make I out of this somehow.
I felt a couple blows to my face and then more acidic fluid was splashed at me but this time at my back. Then I was lifted up to stand up and my arms were raised above my head and tied to stay that way. Next, I felt Pain stinging, throbbing, slashes on my back. The pain never stopped. They whipped me over and over while the Bald headed man shouts, "Again!" over and over.
I yelled out a few times because the pain became unbearable. My vision was blurry and all I can see was blood, my blood splattered everywhere. After awhile of being stabbed again, and getting lashes to my back and legs, I began to feel numb. I stopped yelling when I felt pain. I couldn't speak as blood was pouring slowly out of my mouth from getting punched in the face, also, the spikes stabbing all around my neck made me unable to turn my head. I was weakened to a point where all I wanted to do was sleep.
I had no idea how much time has passed or how long they tortured me, but eventually, I was taken down and sitting back on the chair again. I can hear a door open and shut, I didn't care what was going to happen next. "So? Have you yield?" Demetri's voice reached my ears. I didn't speak. I couldn't. Just like that another blow to the face and I blacked out, last I heard was, "You Fool!!!"
I woke up my eyes, body was sore and weak. I couldn't move, my mouth and throat was dry. I laid there beaten and battered. Wounded to point of bleeding to death slowly. I can feel my heart fluttering, my wolf was struggling to heal as was my body struggled to heal. They used Wolfsbane and Silver with everything they used on me to cut me open. I was able to finally see a little clearer and found that I was back in the room, lying on the floor on my stomach near the door. I guess they just threw me in and left me without tending to my wounds at all. Maybe if I stay still, they won't come back for awhile the longer they think I'm sleeping. It'll give me time enough to heal, I hope. I wish I can move so I can see how deep the wounds were, if they're deep, I don't think I can heal because the Wolfsbane is preventing it.
I want to get out of here, I want to escape so bad. I want to kill these men who done this to me. I will kill them if I ever escape. That's a promise I will not break. My wolf growled deep within me agreeing. I will find my way back to you Davina, I just hope your safe. The thought of her going through something similar to what I am going through pained me more than the throbbing and burning sensation I felt throughout my body. They will die if they touch her this way. I growled again.
I tried to stand up but my head started pounding and my ears rung as my body collapse to the door again. My body made a smacking sound as I fell back onto the floor in my pool of blood. I blacked out again.
I was in a forest running, gliding past the trees, ducking and dodging trees, branches at the right time. I stopped as I smelt the most familiar smell, Vanilla and Chocolate... I look to my right where a River was running through. I see a woman flying across the 15 foot river, she was wearing a light pink dress, that was ripped in some places. Her black long hair flying behind her before she landed a figure jumped in front of her crashing into her body bounced off his and her body went flying towards a tree where her back smashes against it. The figure moved with the speed of light and appeared in front of her as she screamed. I ran towards them. Before I can reach out and grab the figure, I wake up.
I wake up sweating, breathing heavily. I still couldn't move my body, But sweat poured down my face mixing with my blood. This dream always felt too real. It felt as though this was some kind of vision. I had this dream before. Each time I've dreamt it, it has always been that same thing. Me seeing a beautiful woman and witnessing her being attacked and each time about to save her I wake up, never fully seeing her face, or her attackers face. Could the woman be Davina? She has to be, but who is attacking her? I shake my head, which was a bad move, my head started pounding again and I let out a cough and pain shot through me making me go rigid as the Piercing of ringing came into my ears again. My vision blurred and all I can think was, Not again.. and I was out again for the 3rd time.
Had a long dreamless sleep, which I was completely grateful for because I did not want to dream that again. I woke up and was surprised that no one came back to come get me. I thought they'd bring me to the brink of death? Or was that Demetri just joking? Maybe I should be glad that they're not here bothering me. I was afraid to move again, I do not want to pass out, so I'll just lay here and let my body heal. Of course if I was human, I would have already bled to death hours ago, but I was a werewolf, our healing is much faster than humans. Since I am a Warlock/Werewolf Hybrid, I heal quicker than most.
I wish I knew how long I've been out. I don't even know if it's day or night, or how many days I've been in here. All I know is, I haven't eaten or drank anything for hours now. Actually, I hadn't eaten or drank anything since I've been here. Food would help speed up the healing.
I winced as I slowly try and sit up against the wall. I put my back to the wall and felt pain shooting down my entire back burning me. I grunted and fell over to the side. I cringe on the floor, okay not good to move that much at all, I was still badly wounded. I hate this, I swear they'll pay for everything when I get out of here.
I have got to try and get my strength back again.
Use your magic. Ryder says
I shake my head, "We are too weak.." I whispered.
Use it to take the Wolfsbane out and let me do the rest. Ryder says.
Hmm, he has a good point, I can take it out and leave it on the floor in the far corner, but I'd have to do it quickly, because using that energy might knock me out again.
Do it. If we fall asleep, at least it'll give us the rest we need to fully heal finally. We aren't healing at all very much. you only healed from the burns they caused. This stuff is killing us by keeping our wounds open and causing us to lose too much blood. They're meaning to bleed us out...
Alright, I'll do it I thought to him right away. I closed my eyes and focused on my breathing, I pictured the ground below me, the Earth, and remembered the smell of it, the feel of dirt, the sound of the breeze... I grounded myself and thought of nothing except my breathing now. I began to feel for every single wound down my body from my head to my arms, torso, my back, my hands, my legs and to my toes, some wounds were deeper than others, like the stab wounds on my legs and the slashes at my back and stomach, chest. I felt how much Wolfsbane was in those wounds, I breathe in and breathe. I concentrated on taking just the poison out of my body by pushing it out with each breath I exhaled. I worked my way slowly, taking everything out from my head to my toes, working through every single cut, every s***h, every hole from the knifes. Then I opened my eyes to see clear yellow sickly looking fluid and I pushed it into a ball as more added to it and I pushed it across the room with my hands using an invisible force and dropped it on to the floor with a splash. There all the poison was out of me. I then looked to the toilet on my left at the far corner and I put my hand in the air and I called upon water. I felt the pipe behind the toilet burst and water rained down on me washing my wounds clean and then I was out for the fourth time again.
I woke up hours later is what I can assume, this time, I feel more well rested than before. I take my time sitting up and notice that I am no longer sore or in pain, or my head is not pounding. This time, I'm more stiff now from sleeping on the floor. I look at my wounds and inspect them, just as I thought, they were almost completely healed. Everything closed off and the smaller wounds were gone but the bigger wounds were just big scabs now. I slowly get up to stand without a problem, no more shaky legs at all.
Let me out. Ryder roars in my head.
I smile and let him take complete control and change into my wolf Ryder. Oh it felt great to release him. I just wish we can go for a run but in due time we will. We walked around the small room and sniffed the air, no one's been inside here for hours, we've been alone since they last tossed us in here. Which was very strange. Or maybe that's just how they did things here. I quickly changed back into my human form and realized I ripped off all my clothes with that change. That's okay. I waved my hand over my whole body and created the same clothes I came in with, my black jeans and black t-shirt, socks and back Jordans.
I walk over to the keypad and this time, since I'm healed I was able to use my magic. I waved my hand at the keypad and made it open the door. I creeped out and peeked out the hallway looking to both sides I used my werewolf hearing and my nose to sense ant of the guards. I didn't hear anything at all, it was quiet. Frowning, I went straight for the double doors the guards too me through and I checked the other two double doors across these ones instead of going to the right down another hallway where they took me before. I of course numbed into the Bald headed guy past the doors and his eyes widened when he saw me and I gave him no time to respond and I cracked his neck with one swift stealthy movement. His body fell to the floor like a sack of potatoes. I smirked, I told you I'd kill you.
I walked down the hall and noticed a staircase exit sign and took the stairs that were pointing up towards the exit. I ran as fast I can skipping every second step the the exit doors. I opened them and ran out into bright sunlight. I couldn't see at first, someone grabbed me from behind trying to knock me down. I grabbed his arm and flipped him over me, slamming him to the ground hard. I stomped on his head, knocking him out.
I looked around quickly to get my bearings. I was behind a huge Mansion I looked to the door I came out of it was a door to a small looking shack like building with one level floor, I guess it was some kind of underground hospital or torture chamber. I turned around and in the distance I saw men and woman walking around dressed in black clothing, bullet proof vests, with weapons attached to them. I waved my hand over my whole body setting a glammer up to look like them.
Then I walk around the left side of the Mansion, walking beside a guest looking house. I felt a weird energy coming from around the entire building. I stopped and tried to look in the windows but my head kept turning away as if something else was calling to me. Then, I realized this house is spelled for people to ignore it. Hmm, I wonder why? What or Who can they be hiding?
I put my hand on the window, closed my eyes a felt my energy flow through my hand and onto the House. I know I was not able to take the entire spell down, but this will help me look inside at least. Finally I looked inside and was surprised to see Hardin, he was sitting in the kitchen table drinking coffee I think. I tried to knock on the window to get his attention but my hand bounced off the invisible Shield protecting the House.
Without the original witch that locked him in there, I cannot break in and rescue him. For right now, at least he's safe. I just need to find Davina now. I walked away from the house and walked around to the front of the Mansion and made my way down the road. I kept walking away from the Mansion. I wanted to see just how big this territory really is, I bumped into someone wearing a cloak. I didn't even see her, she just appeared out of nowhere. I grabbed her shoulders and said "Sorry, miss, I didn't see you."
She looked at me, her grey eyes looked familiar and said, "Wait, your a Wolf, I can smell you. Only Vampire guards wear those uniforms. Werewolves wear lose clothing to allow them to strip easy and change in case there needs to be a fight. Who are you?"
I backed away from her, holding my hands out to her in defense. "I-Umm.." I stammered. Oh s**t. I'm caught, she's going to rat me out. "I'm Jake." I blurted and shocked myself.
She squinted her eyes at me then said, "When did you arrive here, Jake?"
"Last night or the other night. I'm not sure. Are you going to tell the guards on me?" I asked.
"Not if you answer truthfully." She says.
"Okay," I thought for a moment. How can I trust her, so far though she's not yelling for help.
"Walk this way with me." She gestured to the road we were on headed away from the Mansion. I walked beside her not speaking waiting for her to ask.
"I've got work for you." She says as she picks up the pace and I followed her all the way down the road, the walk was maybe 10 to 15 minutes. We walked in long silence. I kept looking towards the woods in hopes of running for it since she seemed distracted. But my curiosity got the better of me. Something about this woman I felt somehow safe with. Which is strange as I just met her and have yet to know her.
She took me into a driveway that went slightly up hill and into another Mansion, though this was was a bit smaller. She took me inside and we stepped into the elevator. Then I followed her down the hallway and went into a apartment looking room, with a kitchen on the right and across from it a livingroom and in the middle was a small hallway. I see a Tall broad shouldered man standing in the kitchen cooking lunch o assume? He looked at me and looked at the woman with raised eyebrows.
Before, anyone can say anything we all turned out heads to the sound of a door opening and there she came out from the hallway. The girl of my dreams, the most beautiful living creature with long thick dark hair that goes past her waist, and big Icy blue eyes, heart shaped face with red plump lips that we slightly parted her eyes wide as she took me in, a huge smile spreads across my face.
Then, unexpectedly she ran into my arms, the familiar smell of Vanilla and Chocolate filled my nose and I laughed as I lifted her to my arms and she wrapped her legs around me hugging me and she laughed too.
"Omg Jake! I was so worried about you! I am so happy to see you!" She exclaimed.
"Oh Davina, I've missed you so much." I whispered to her.
We held eachother like that for a little while, not caring about the audience watching us at that moment. I was overjoyed that she was in one piece and finally safe in my arms. Then, without thinking, I kissed her with everything I had. She then wrapped her arms even more tightly around me pulling me in deeper into the kiss. Eventually I lowered her back on to the floor and wiped away her tears from her face frowning I asked, Why are you crying? I'm okay, we are both okay." I told her giving her a quick hug again.
"I'm crying because I am so happy and also, because I am so sorry, Jake. All this was my fault. If I hadn't ran away, none of this would be happening. I am sorry I dragged you into this, you should have stayed home where you'd be safe. You shouldn't have!"
I cut her off, "Shhh," I Whispered, grabing her face in between my hands to make her look into my eyes. "None of this is your fault. Don't apologize."
She sniffed, "I'm so sorry."
