Scarred obsession

Chapter 12: Confrontation

.............Jonah POV..............

I felt my heart race when I realized that monster ruined my girl on purpose. He wanted her to not have pup, he felt the need to take that from her. I felt my anger build, but it was replaced with worry when my Kitten started hyperventilating. I looked down at her as her eyes rolled back, I lifted her in my arms as her legs gave out, she looked like a rag doll with the way her head was hanging. I gently put her head on my chest to stop it from flopping, then I carried her to the living room and sat on the couch with her on my lap. Everyone began to crowd he so I growled at them, everyone but my dad backed up. He brushed some hair from her face and sighed.

"Jonah you knew?" My mother asked. I nodded and she looked disappointed. "Did you talk about your options?" I knew she wanted grand kids but now was not the time.

"We really haven't talked about it mom." I said annoyed.

"You should have before you marked her." I snarled at her making her take a step back. I was furious.

"Who the f**k do you think you are?" I snarled. "She just found out she can't have pups and you expect me to walk away. I wouldn't leave her even if the moon-goddess hadn't been kind enough to put us together, I love her, I have for years, so if you have a problem shove it up your ass and leave." I heard a collective intake of sharp breaths, I looked down at my little mate, who looked like she was sleeping peacefully. I knew her mind was racing, it had all been to much for her.

"Jonah, that was a bit harsh don't you think?" My dad said, I glared at him.

"Put yourself in my shoes and you tell me." I growled. "Would any of you leave your mate, say you had known you loved her since you turned 15, then you find out she was tortured from ages 3-7, then you find her in a cave, barely alive because she believed you would reject her the moment you realized she was infertile. Tell me, would you leave her?"

A collection of "No." went around. "Not to mention, that your little mate asked you to reject her so you could find someone else so you could have a family. Rey gave me the option to leave, I chose to stay, nothing could ever make me change my mind."

"Thank you for being so good to her Jonah." Christian said. 

"Don't thank me." I replied. I felt Reya stiffen in my arms as she began to wake up.

.........Reya POV............

"Don't thank me." Were the first words I heard as I regained consciousness. I knew it was Jonah speaking, but why would someone thank him. A small groan left my lips when I realized how stiff my body was, I wanted answers. I opened my eyes and I could make out a few colors and nothing more, i blinked and my vision became clearer.

"Reya, are you alright?" I heard someone ask. I took a deep breath and blinked again, I could now make out the partial wing on Jonah's neck, I pressed my forehead against it and rested for a few more minutes.

"Rey?" I heard the voice again. I think it was Hudson, but I couldn't be positive. I felt Jonah shift a bit and I pulled my head away and looked up at him, he was looking at someone I turned my head to see Kane kneeling in front of us. I put my head back on Jo's chest while still looking at Kane. "Do you need anything?" He asked , his voice laced with worry.

"Answers." I said dryly. The wheels in my head began to spin, I remember them saying Ryan used to treat me like a princess, until I was three. I wanted to know what had changed, what possessed him to take a silver knife to a child over and over again. 

"I'm sorry little wolf, but I cant get you those." Kane said with a sad smile.

"Sure you can, take a silver knife dipped in wolfsbane and cut pieces of him off one by one until he tells you everything." I growled. I could fell them staring at me but the rage and pain overwhelmed all of my more compassionate nature. "Better yet, take us to him and we'll do it." Venus joined me in our head and our eyes went black. 

"Reya, that isn't a good idea...." I held my hand up and climbed off of Jonah. 

"We want answers, we'll do it without you if we must. So either you take us, or we go alone." We growled again. I could feel the rage pouring off me in waves. 

"Reya honey, you should rest." Lani said taking my face in her hands.

"No." I said distantly before I left the living room, heading to the door. I felt a hand on my arm and I felt tingles.

"If your doing this, I'm coming with you Kitten, he took my family too." Jonah said grabbing our helmets while I put on my shoes. "I linked the guards they are taking him to the interrogation room with all of the toys." I felt Venus give Jo a evil smirk and we walked out to the motorcycle, we purred when the engine rumbled, then we were off. We drove for about ten minutes before we ended up in front of a white farm house, Jonah turned off the engine and we climbed off the bike. He took my hand and we went inside the farmhouse's blue door. We walked through a small front porch and came upon two more doors, a red door and a white one. Jonah went to the red door and placed his hand on a scanner before I heard the door unlock. I watched as Jonah twisted the knob and opened the door.

"Come on Kitten. Our answers await us." I followed my amazing mate down a flight of stairs into a cement basement, there was a glass viewing window, showing a small room where the monster was tied to a chair. I snarled at the sight of him, I walked to the window where there was a guard watching Jo and I curiously. 

"Where is the silver knife?" I asked walking over to him. He handed me the silver knife, with a small glass jar of a golden yellow syrup inside. Wolfsbane. I took them both and walked to the door, I saw a small table in the room, perfect. The guard opened the door and all three of us walked into the room, Ryan lifted his eyes to mine and he had a look of shock on his face.

"Take his shirt off, bring in a mirror,  I want him to watch as his body is torn apart bit by bit." Jonah snarled. The guard took off Ryan's shirt and left the room.

"Are we gonna have so fun Reya?" Ryan asked me. I set the silver knife and wolfsbane on the table then looked back into his eyes.

"I want to know why. What changed? Should you decide not to tell me, I will rip into your flesh, the way you ripped into mine. By the time we are done with you, you will be begging for death." I said emotionlessly. Just then the guard came back in with the mirror. I opened the container of wolfsbane and dipped the knife in it.

Venus, I need you to do this part. I know I can't.

(I will do the mauling, but you must talk. I will destroy him, without you getting your answers.)

Okay. I think I can do that.

(I know you can.)

"So tell me, what changed. From what I've been told, I was like your daughter until I was three. Then you told everyone I was dead." I asked, Jonah was next to me. Ryan said nothing so Venus took my hand and slid the knife into his gut. He screamed as his skin sizzled at the contact of silver and wolfsbane.

"The more you scream, the more you hurt." I growled, repeating the words that were burned into my memory. "Tell me." When he still didn't speak I pulled the knife from his stomach then shoved it back in, In a new spot. After a few more his eyes went black and Sergio emerged.

"Why did he change Sergio?" I asked putting the knife down.

"He saw Valery at a club, she was hanging all over another guy, when he walked up to her, she didn't recognize him. He knew at that moment that she had only used him for you. That's what changed him sweetheart." 

"Did he tell you what he did to her?" Jonah asked from beside me. Sergio looked from me to him, then back.

"What did he do?" I could see the horror on his face.

"He made it impossible for her to bare pups." Jonah growled. Tears left Sergio's eyes as he whimpered, I watched as his shoulders shook from his sobbing. I cupped his face in my hands and made him look at me.

"My human is a monster. How could he do such a thing, to someone as perfect as you. I'm so sorry sweetheart."

"It isn't your fault. Non e culpa vosrta." I kissed he tear soaked cheek and he sobbed again. It broke my heart to see Sergio this way. "Ti amo papa."

"Ti amo tesoro." (I love you sweetheart.) "Are you her mate?" Sergio asked Jonah.

"Yes." Jo said.

"Take care of her please. Reya, I don't want to leave you, but I have decided to let go. Ryan doesn't deserve a wolf, I don't want to be stuck to him." He said, I felt my body go numb.

"You want to do an unbinding?" I heard Hudson ask as he entered the room. I leaned on Jonah, Sergio was about to die.

"I do. Please Alpha, let me leave this abomination of a human."

"I accept." Hudson said. Jonah put his arm around my shoulder and tried to lead me away, but I needed to say one last thing.

"Thank you Sergio. Even though you always had his face, I loved you as my own father. I forgive you for not being able to save me sooner. You may not be blood but, you are my family."

"I love you as well sweetheart. Now please go, I don't want you to have to see this." I walked over and wrapped him in one last tight embrace before going back to Jonah. We left the room, and went up to the porch of the farm house. I sobbed as I heard the screams and howls of a wolf dying, I knew Sergio was gone when I felt a piece of my heart break. I climbed on Jonah's back and let him carry me to the bike, I took the helmet absentmindedly and placed it on my head. I cried on my lover the whole way home, he lifted me off the bike and took off my helmet leaving it on the handlebars. I was carried to our bed where Jonah curled up next to me, my back was in his chest, his arms were around my waist, I interlocked our fingers, his face was in the nape of my neck. His long legs were curled up in mine, we looked like a really thick ball. I let myself fell everything, all the pain and longing. All the love I had tried to push away for the fear of it being wrong. I felt the hate and rage leave me as my body trembled, without the heat of my rage I felt so cold.

After a while the tears stopped and I closed my exhausted eyes, I felt Jonah get up and leave. He came back after a few minutes and gently slid my shorts off followed my shirt and bra. He pulled a shirt over me and set me back down. I heard him take my clothes and I heard the shower turn on, I climbed out of bed and stripped and got in the shower, surprising him. I washed myself of the days grime, as he washed his large body. 

"Jonah. Do you think I have Stockholm's syndrome?" I asked as he turned the shower off and brought me a towel.

"No, why?" He said very confused.

"Dr. Kessler said I may have it once." I sighed as I was drying off. 

"I think you are strong enough to see the difference between the two halves of the same body. You let yourself love the half that loved you." Jonah said. I smiled meekly up at him and kissed his bare chest right over his heart.
