Willows Salvation

Chapter 2

Waiting in a corner booth at the Midnight Café sat Christopher and his Beta Leo. Some of the best Crescent Warriors were outside blending in with the shadows just in case something funny would happen. Dominic walked through the doors with Stephen by his side. They didn't bring any warriors themselves as they were still trying to heal their near-fatal wounds from the last battle. He sat down across from Christopher and they both locked eyes. Christopher felt disgusted for the man across from him. He was a nasty vile creature, but he was willing to hear him out. See he had already done his homework about the Blood Moon Pack. He knew of their disgusting history, that they had no money, and their lands were only acquired but taking over another pack. They only had one bargaining chip. Unfortunately, Dominic had the same idea. Willow.

"So, you have asked for this meeting Dominic what do you want to discuss?"

"I want a time of peace for my warriors so that they can have time to grieve for loved ones lost and recuperate and heal their wounds from many battles."

Looking into his eyes he couldn't tell if the man in front of him was lying or telling the truth. His voice sounded sincere though a bit rough. After starring for a moment, and trying to decipher what the nasty Alpha before him was planning he said

"So, what do you have in mind"

Dominic took a sip of coffee and replied "A peace treaty. My pack will stay off your land and yours will stay off mine. Anyone that breaks the treaty will be executed per stipulation that will be outlined. And to show you that I mean business" trying to hide his smile and putting on the most pained look he could muster. "I... I.... Will give you.............my daughter! To show you that we mean business and mean no more harm. My pack won't attack for fear she may be hurt" He was looking down trying to slump his shoulder. He wanted Christopher to think he was defeated and physically upset over this decision. But in his mind, this was just the beginning.

"I have no wish to marry your daughter Dominic."

"I didn't offer her in marriage. I just said I would give her to you for whatever reason you see fit, let her be my way of extending the hand of friendship and to show that I want to be at peace with the Crescent Moons." Dominic looked down. His acting skills were better than he thought. He hated the girl and soon he would never have to see her again.

Christopher looked down and took a drink of his own coffee while also communicating with his Beta through their pack link. "They are playing right into my plan Leo" Leo answered with a "Just watch yourself I still don't trust the guy he is up to something"

"Alright," Said Christopher. "We have a deal. But I want you to know. I will kill you if you break this treaty. I will personally make sure the Blood Moon Pack is extinct. Is that understood."

"Yes" was all Dominic could say. He was still trying to act heartbroken over the loss of his daughter while smiling devilishly on the inside. "When and where do you want me to deliver her to you. It could take a while as I will have to sit down and explain all of this to her" he said pretending to be the perfect father.

"I want her here before dawn Dominic or this peace treaty will be null and void."

Dominic stood and shook Christopher's hand. Nodded his head in agreement and headed out of the café.

Smiling as he got in his SUV "Now onto part 2 of my plan"

"What is part 2?"

"You'll see"

*********************************************************

Willow lay in her bed fast asleep while Tilly was by the window, watching and waiting for the dawn to come. She heard footsteps in the hall and started to move to wake Willow, but it was too late. Dominic had his hands around her throat. "Don't Scream, Don't Wake her, sit down in that Chair and Don't move or your heart will lay at your feet." Tilly quickly shook her head up and down and she was released. She sat down in the chair and a warrior hit her on the back of the head knocking her out. He climbed on top of Willow and slapped her. Slowly turning her head, she looked up and there he was on top of her. She tried to fight back and buck him off, but he was too strong. "Remember when I told you that I would put you in your place? Well, it's now time. But before I do, I have something to tell you. After tonight you will no longer be here. I have sold you to the Crescent Moon Pack." He was smiling that sickly-sweet smile. As his happiness was coming to light. He had her finally pinned down and soon he would be rid of her. Willow looked on with fear and happiness in her eyes. And he caught it. "Oh, so you are happy to leave my home. You little bitch." With that, he punched her again and again until she was unconscious. 

He got off her and started to tie her hands and feet to the bed frame. Sending for a bucket of ice water he threw it in her face. She came back to reality sputtering and trying to breathe. That's when she realized what he had done. Her mouth was filling with blood from the attack on her face and she spit it on him and started to smile. "Soon I will be gone from this place" she replied "and I will no longer have to see your vile face anymore". That was it. He grabbed a dagger from his boot and stabbed her in the thigh. Enjoying putting her in pain he said,  "How do you like me now little b***h. Keep running your mouth!" The dagger had been dipped in Wolfsbane to not only prevent her from healing herself, but the long-term effects could be deadly.

She screamed out as her leg burned and he pushed it further and further down. "f**k you" she managed to get out. Just then he was on top of her. Hitting her again from her face to her ribs until she almost lost consciousness. A warrior stepped into the room and said, "Sir we have to drop her off in 90 minutes." With a nod of his head, he returned his attention to Willow. "Let me show you who is in charge here. I'm going to teach a lesson you soon won't forget." The shorts she had worn to bed were being ripped down the side. Her underwear shredded and it didn't take her long to regain her full consciousness and realize what he was doing. She tried to buck him off again, but he put his hand around her throat and began pounding into her over and over again. She tried to fight him off but his hand around her throat was tightening turning her surroundings black. She tried to scream but only a mere squeak escaped her lips. Her lungs were burning from the lack of air and her head pounding from the beating and the tears. Just then Tilly hit him over the head with a lamp.

He grabbed the maid with his one free hand and with the other that was on Willow's throat pinned her on top of her. She bit him in the thigh in the hope of being let free, but nothing stopped him. He was rapping me over and over. He waited for me to see light again and said "this is what will happen to those that try to protect you Willow. I will kill every single one". Just then His hand went into her chest and came out with a beating heart. I screamed and tried to fight which landed his fists flying into my ribs again and this time I heard the crack. White-hot fire took over my body. I was seeing stars and could barely stand it anymore. "Are you ready to submit little b***h. You truly are a slut now. That is all you will ever be is a slut and a w***e". And he spit in her face. Stopping briefly to untie her legs he turned her over and continued his onslaught. "45 minutes Alpha" came a voice from the hall. He leaned down once he was done and whispered in my ear. "Here a little something else to remember me by". Grabbing the lamp that was broken over his head he cut the plug end off and stripped the wire casing. He started to whip her with it until her shirt was torn and her back was nothing but blood. She screamed and howled in pain. Crying out for her mother who never came, crying because of what her father had just done. Crying because she was finally defeated by this man. But she also cried a few tears of joy for she knew it would be over soon and she would never have to see this man again.

Her back bloody and raw her leg still bleeding from the dagger that was plunged into it and her lungs struggling to breathe with the broken ribs pushing up against them. He finally stopped. He flipped her back over held her by the throat put his head to hers and said " Willow Dawn you are no longer a member of the Blood Moon Pack. May you rot in Hell!" He then untied her hands and told the Warriors to drop her off as is. She is no longer my concern. She managed to say, "but my stuff" he looked her in the face and with a knockout punch he said, "you have nothing here b***h". He left the room and the warriors started to take her away when her mother stepped in.

She had been out in the hall the whole time. Heard what her mate had done to her daughter and smiled. "You can't take her to him looking like this. She is passed out from the pain right now so we can tell him we had to drug her to get her to come. But she must be dressed appropriately and those wounds on her back and leg wrapped. Her face will start to heal between here and there." She grabbed some clothes and ripped her daughters' sheet into pieces, thoroughly soaking it in wolfsbane and went to work.

Willow woke up for just for a moment and looked her mother in the face crying "mama". Her mother slapped her. "You made him do this to you. If you had just kept your mouth shut and didn't fight back so much this wouldn't have happened. Although for all the Hell and pain you have caused me I won't say you didn't deserve it" A warrior stepped in at this point and hit her on the back of the head. Her mother grabbed the sheet off of the bed and soaked it in wolfsbane before wrapping her daughters' wounds. Once done she was hauled out of the house, threw in the back seat of the Black SUV and taken away. She would never have to see this place again.
