Baden had watched through Zac’s vision as the figure walked closer and closer. Stepping into a patch of light realization hit him, it hit him hard. This was his fault, all his fault. Amelia stood in front of the cell bars with a dark smirk plastered to her face. Seeing her face caused so much pain, he hadn’t meant to hurt her, but this was… what the f**k was she thinking. After looking at the chuck of wood sitting on the floor for a few seconds trying to tame his wolf after his connection was cut, Baden lifted his blood red eyes to Ian.
“Amelia has them. Find everything you can on her, where has she been? Who does she speak with? Where is her family? Everything!”
Ian’s eye opened wide in surprise never expecting to hear her name from Baden’s lips ever again. If it was Amelia who had Zac and Gemma there was no telling what she would do. After spending weeks in the pack hospital in recovery, she went almost insane before leaving the pack. She still tried to see Baden constantly until he exiled her, banning her from pack lands. The whole thing was a f*****g mess not only with Amelia and the pack, but the council as well. In the end Amelia was somewhat mentally unstable. Once again Ian flashed back to that night.
Hearing a scream Ian sprinted to Baden’s office. Baden was stalking towards Amelia in human form, but his claws were out. Amelia had only underwear on, as she lay whimpering on the floor. Blood covered her from head to toe. Stepping forwards Ian almost tripped as his foot caught in something, looking down a thick black coat was left on the floor. Calling for help through mind link Ian had approached Baden before the memory cut off in his mind.
***********
“Zac, it has been a while”. Amelia spoke to Zac as if he were an old friend.
“Amelia! What are you doing? Release us!” Zac was furious, this girl had been nothing but trouble when she was in the pack let alone when she wasn’t.
“You weren’t meant to be here Zac, but when I saw you there unconscious, I couldn’t resist. You helped him banish me! I have waited so long for this day.” Her tone was shrill, she sounded crazed as she ended by laughing.
“What do you want from us?” Zac’s vision patched again as he fell from his knees to his side still watching Amelia as much as he could. A wicked smile appeared on her face as she walked closer unlocking the cell door.
“I want to hurt Baden as bad as he hurt me. He could have been mine, he could have prevented this. Everyone knows about that girl, he does everything for her. I’m going to tear her to pieces, and I going to make him watch me do it. An you’re going to help me where you like it or not.”
Zac could hardly hold his eyes open as he tried to crawl towards Gemma to protect her. Amelia was inside the cell reaching to her belt revealing a switch blade. Reaching out Zac gripped Gemma’s arm using the last of his strength to drag her unconscious form underneath his body.
Amelia watched the scene in front of her, growing more angered by the second. What was so special about this girl. Baden never looked at a girl, mate or not this girl had somehow changed him. Then what about Zac, previously when encountering a girl like this he would ignore or destroy her. He would never accept a rogue, never. Now he was in a state where he couldn’t even stand yet was using his last ounce of strength to protect her.
This girl was going to suffer, Amelia had never wanted to destroy someone so badly in her life. Amelia had been watching her for some time now, waiting, just waiting for the right moment. When the ball came about it was the perfect opportunity, but even she didn’t expect it to be as easy as it had been. Baden had served her up on a silver platter, it couldn’t have been more perfect.
Looking down on the two unconscious bodies, “Let the games begin.”
