Broken souls and hidden scars

Keeping my word

I arrive at dark moon pack to find death and destruction, over half of there land is littered with bodies. I get to the pack house to find Adrien on the floor clinging to his dead mate, neither Cole or Ava are anywhere in sight. I don't know how I feel about that, did they get away or did he get to her, I place my hand on Adrien's shoulder and he growls loudly at me his eyes are no longer Aqua there ice cold blue, he looks feral but I need to talk to him I need to know if she's still alive “Adrien, I'm not here to fight, where is Ava?” I ask, he doesn't respond he doesn't even acknowledge that I'm there.

I walk away from the pack house and search for anyone that is alive that I can talk to, when finally I find Brett “Brett what happened where's Cole and Ava” I ask, he glares at me “why do you care demon” he spits at me, I took a deep breath as I didn't want to react something has definitely happened to them, the pack seems broken “I just want to help” I say, “Alpha's dead, and we can't feel our Luna” Lana answers me, “That can't be good news” I say, “No s**t sherlock” she says sarcastically “Lana look at me, I just want to help I will try and get her back” I say, she looks at me with her ice cold blue eyes, but before she can answer Adrien stands up.  

“Y-y-you will bring my daughter back to me?” Adrien asks hope and sadness in his eyes, “I will try my best you have my word” I say, he places his hand on my shoulder “Your in love with her, I saw it the first time you visited, you didn't want Cole to get hurt either, you care about them?” he says, asking a rhetorical question, yet I answered it anyway “I do care yes, and I really did want to help” I answer him honestly, Lana looked at me again and she gave me a weak smile, “Go get my petal back she needs to be here to bury her mom and her mate” he says letting out tears he was holding back and for a second the aqua colour returned to his eyes, I leave as Lana embraces him in a hug.

I get back to my territory and put my plans in motion, both Jayce and his father must still be alive for her to be there, his father is the oldest of the bloodsuckers and was granted with powers, so he must be keeping her presence there hidden. I can't just walk in there and request to take his new queen, I need to be smart about this. I call for my second in command, “Ivan we need to scope the place out and some how distract his father, but how?” I ask, my second in command is good at strategies.  

“Sir we can always invite the king here, when his guards down we kill him, Jayce hasn't took over yet as he has to have his queen first, once the kings dead we can take the place by force, Jayce doesn't stand a chance”he says, but I know better than to underestimate Jayce, “we need to lure Jayce set a trap for him” I say, “we kill the king the powers he possesses will falter what if I contact Ava and tell her to go along with being broken for him to let his guard down she will be able to kill him as she only has to bite him” I say, I just hope that Ava isn't being tormented too much by the sadistic bastard “they've no doubt got her in a cell weakening her with charms” it made my blood boil just thinking about her being hurt by that monster.

We have to allow enough time go by so he believes she has truly broken though as much as I hate the idea of leaving her there, after a week today is finally the day. The king will die and I will visit Raven to pass on the message I can't risk getting into her cell it's bound to be charmed and I could get stuck there. Raven is human, she will be able to get in and out without drawing attention to herself. We have invited the king to talk about terms of allegiance, It's not going to be easy to kill him. We have been getting a young lady to drink vervain for a while now, just for an occasion like this, she's young enough to peek the kings interest but old enough to make the choice to allow him to drink from her.

“King so good to see you” I say, trying my best to sound sincere, “Where were you Faiban?” he asks suspiciously, “I'm sorry king it was to great of a risk, Amelia has a few of my loyal subjects and my sister in her dungeons, she would kill them for sure if we had arrived, I think it was her leverage over me” I say trying to look angered, the King eyes me an starts tapping the table impatiently, I know I need to soften him up “Now do you want to get down to business first or can I interest you in a drink? I have a nice seventeen year old virgin on ice” I say smiling politely. The smile on the kings face makes me feel confident “It would be rude to object your hospitality Faiban” he says smiling with his eyes. “Bring the girl”, I say to my second Ivan. The young girl came in brown hair flowing down her back, dressed in a baby doll outfit her breasts on show beneath the sheer fabric.

The king licked his lips “Oh my you have made quite the effort, my son would like you young lady, I may take you with me for him to play with seems his new queen isn't bending to his will” he says sinisterly, and I had to calm myself as his comment angered me. The king stood and undid her baby doll outfit letting it fall to the floor “You won't feel anything, no pain just pleasure” he says, trying to control her mind so she isn't frightened, before he sinks his teeth into her breast and she doesn't move a muscle she even releases a low moan, he drinks his fill before falling onto the floor “you bastard, you f*****g poisoned me” he says muffled. I quickly take a stake and push it through his heart.

“Time to visit Raven Ivan, I won't be long burn his body” I say before teleporting to Raven's chambers luckily she is alone, she jumped nervously when she saw me “Faiban you shouldn't sneek in on people like that, you could of given me a heart attack” she says, I cut off her rambling “Raven, I need you to get a message to Ava beg her to break, tell her an old friend needs her to, so she can be free. The kings dead and so is his magic along with it, the charms will no longer work on her” I say but Raven's keeping up with me “she will be able to bite Jayce now, tell her to call for me when she's done it” I say, but she looks at me with sad eyes “I have already asked her to and she said she would rather die than bow to him” she answers, “try again make sure you tell her what I have said, she will know what I mean” I say, I hope this plan works cause if not we will be back at war with the vampires and I'm not sure were strong enough.

Ava's P.O.V

Raven rushed into my cell today saying the kings dead along with his magic and an old friend needs me to break and just take a bite, I racked my brain for so long trying to figure out what she meant. Unfortunately Jayce came into my room to torture me more as he was pushing roughly, clawing at all my skin and pushing me to the point of screaming I heard Sky say “bite we need to bite” Isla is back too, her voice was faint at first, it must be the kings charms, I can move my toes too. “Listen to your old friend” was all she said. As he roughly pushed again I let my scream out, I made it as loud as I could and I cried. He immediately stopped “Finally are you ready to be my queen now” he asked me, I bowed my head to him “Yes” I said in a low seductive voice. He lifted my chin so I was eye level and I forced my gold eyes “Hmm so your Lycan has finally given into me as well” he says a smile crossing his lips, “I am yours, my king” I say in a husky voice.  

Within seconds of saying it I was finally out of the cuffs being carried out of the cell, my body was working again and I could feel my full power returning. We entered a large suite and he took me straight into his bedroom. “No more cuffs” he says kissing my bloody wrists I let out a low moan pretending to enjoy his touch. I straddle him beneath me and he pushes himself inside me, pulling me down onto him, I let out another moan louder than the one before making sure he thinks I'm enjoying myself I start to kiss down his neck and he was groaning into my ear “Now that feels much be..” he says as I sink my teeth into his jugular ripping it out and spitting it onto him “No that feels better” I say looking him in the eyes as the colour drains “yes” Sky howls. I open his bathroom and vomit washing my face with water.  

I open his closet and find a T shirt and some shorts pulling them on quickly I know now who I need to call for, I shout for Faiban, within a second he's stood in front of me “Ava I am so sorry, you look terrible” he says, I could see in his eyes he carried so much remorse “Thank you for coming for me” I say, he walked towards me and I felt myself flinch and back away “It's okay I'm not going to hurt you but I need to hold you to take you home” he says, I allow him to hold my hand “Let's get you home” he says, giving me a weak smile.

I get home and my dad is in a state “Ava? Oh petal I'm so sorry I didn't protect any of you” he says, I take a deep look at my dad “Where's mom?” I ask, but he just starts crying louder and I realise she's dead! I look to Faiban and he lowered his head looking down to the floor “I'm sorry, there was so many they tried to kill me but your mom, she threw herself in front of me and as she died they all scattered” he said, I shushed him “It's okay dad, I'm here” I say I look to Faiban and he has a look I have never seen on his face before, I hold onto my father for as long as I can but I need to shower and change I feel disgusting and I can still taste and smell Jayce all over me and it's making me feel sick.  

Finally Lana intervenes “Adrien we need Ava to go get washed and changed I'm sure it's been a while since she's eaten properly and I dare say she's exhausted “ she looked to me with a weak smile "Your old room is exactly how you left it if your not ready to go back to your suite” she says, sadness filling her eyes “No it's okay I might need help getting up there though Faiban can you help me please” I say and everyone looks at me shocked including Faiban. I walk over and place my hand on his shoulder and he teleports me to my suite, once the room stops spinning I look at him “I need you to do something for me, I'm happy to pay you a bounty” I say, he looks at me questionably “Yes anything what do you need?” he says, “I want you to find the bastard that killed her for me, I know you will as I have already for seen you do it in a vision” I say my voice showing no emotion, “You have had a vision about me?” he asks curiously.

“Don't read to much into it, you will only disappoint yourself, I will only ever have him in my heart, now please leave so I can scrub that disgusting bastard off me” I say and without another word he left. Now in our suite alone I look around at an empty shell, it held memories but we had been so busy with the upcoming war we hadn't decorated it. I walk into the bathroom, completely by passing the bedroom stepping into a scalding hot shower I scrubbed at my skin. I scrubbed at my skin until it was sore all over, as I climbed out I walked to the mirror and my reflection was that of a hollow broken creature, no aqua left in my eyes only ice cold blue. I looked to were I wore his mark and that bastard had bitten it from my neck, my skin had healed but there was nothing left of him there. Tears began to run from my eyes and I just crumbled to the ground, loosing him all the hurt I felt when he died came back. Loosing my mom never getting to say goodbye to her, the humiliation and torture I had faced in the last week and half all replaying over in my head, I felt truly broken.
