Steele

Chapter 12

Steele's POV.

I stepped into the house, the only light on was a flickering light that hung by just one wire.

As soon as I closed the door, two men grabbed my arms and a smaller one held a silver knife to my back.

I sighed loudly and the little guy holding the knife to my back dug it into my skin a little farther.

Jesse stepped from around the stairs and signed to the men. They then turned me around and took me to the basement.

Jesse walked in after and chained my arms to chain links that fell from the ceiling.

"It took longer than I expected for you to find us." He smirked and picked up a silver knife, careful not to touch the blade.

"I wasn't looking. Are you really afraid? So afraid that you locked me up? You're pathetic." I snarled.

He only laughed and dug the knife into my stomach. His face became screwed up and his mouth turned to a scowl.

"I will win that girl, if I have to kill you to do that, I will." Jesse twisted the knife and I laughed in pain, which was probably something I shouldn't do because he turned it around and twisted the other way.

"You and I both know... that neither of us... deserve her." I could feel blood and vile running up my throat and I spat the little bits of it in his face.

He groaned and wiped it off.

After that, he continuously punched me until my head hung, me not able to pick it up. But, when he left I spat again, at his feet and picked my head up.

Narrowing my eyes, I just stood there until my legs got tired, then took pressure off of my legs and hung until my arms were sore.

I decided then to try and take action but Jesse came back.

He smirked and pulled out some acid, a knife, and a machete.

I rolled my eyes.

"Hey, asshole, I think it's about time you let me go."

"Nah, I like the sight of you being helpless."

"I'm not helpless!"

"You wish. Now, where's Allie?" Jesse asked.

"Somewhere close, close enough for me to get to her before you."

"You'll be too dead."

"If I'm dead, watch your back, even in spirit form I can still kill you."

He walked circles around me and twisted a machete in his hand, after placing the other items on the floor.

The machete's tip grazed my skin, leaving a line.

"You might not live through this one. Just like your parents. My father got information
from them then eagerly killed them. I watched him, too. Not even looking away when he sliced their heads off."

I laughed, a hearty chuckle, and replied, "They deserved to die."

"Oh no, no they were innocent." He laughed and walked over to the acid and sliced it open. Jesse dipped the machete into the acid.

It sizzled then stopped when he slid it out.

He walked towards me, fire blazing in his eyes.

"Y'know, I'm very surprised you didn't pay anyone to beat the hell outa' me like you did Allie. You're an asshole. You deserve to die." I growled.

Jesse made a move and quickly jabbed my right abdomen.

I hissed as my skin peeled away from it, trying to get away from the acid.

"I gave you that scar, the one above your eye. You were too young to remember and I knocked you unconscious, erasing the memory." He laughed in a snarky, rich boy way.

"Does it look like I give a fuck? Because I don't." I shrugged. It wasn't the best idea. Pain shot through my body. I showed no emotion though.

"I don't care if you don't give a fuck. I just wanted to let you know." Jesse gave me an evil-ish smirk.

"Hey Jesse, you know when I get out of here I will have one thing you won't." My wolf started to take over my mind.

"And what is that?"

"Allie. You know she won't ever love you. She loves me not you. She's mine." My wolf took full control.

Jesse's smirk faded. He walked over to me and took a sliver knife. He stabbed me right below my rib cage.

I showed no emotion on my face. I just stared at Jesse.

"I am the leader, now, and she will be mine. I had already marked her. The mark will not go away unless I reject it, and I won't."

I growled. If it weren't for these damn chains, I would beat the shit out of him for laying a hand on my girl.

I tried to remain calm but my anger always gets the best of me. I contained the anger raging through me.

Instead of pushing against the chains that held me in the room, I stood and waited. I'm not quite sure what I was waiting for but I had a feeling it was for this asshole to leave.

"I'm sure Allie would like to know where you are... well, maybe not. She doesn't seem the same, right? Well, guess." He snarled.

He seemed like he was only taking this anger out on me because he has nothing else to do. He hasn't even looked for his mate! I didn't either but... this is different, he is trying to take my mate from me.
