Chapter Forty: Hers To Choose

Jenna was still lying on the floor bleeding, Noni and Fazirya asking her a million questions they knew wouldn't do any good. I just wanted to know one thing.

"Where is he?" their head snapped to me as I asked. Tears threatened to spill down my face in wild rivers and a lump crawled up my throat but I swallowed it and pushed the tears back. I'm done crying over things that I can't change. I just need Orso home in spirit in body.

"Where did you bury my brother?"

Blankly Jenna stared at me with no intention to open her mouth and for once speak when I want to hear her voice. "Tell me or I'll end your pitiful life right now", I yelled storming towards her but Fazirya and Noni held me back.

"You can't kill me", Jenna chuckled. Has she lost her freaking mind? What's up with this bitch?

"She's pregnant", Fazirya sighed. "It's Mars's", Jenna smirked.

I felt all the color drain out of my face. What? No!

"It's not its Harris's", Noni revealed.

"It's the look on your face that kills me. It could have been his and you know it. You know Mars and Banner", she says to Noni and me, "will never completely be yours, they're mine too"

The urge to claw that little smirk off her face tingled on my palm and I couldn't give a damn if I was cursed for killing the pup growing inside her. But there was some truth in her words why did he? Did some part of him really want to be with her? Does some part of him love her?

"Oh to fuck with that", Banner said waltzing into the room and standing beside Noni, "you killed the only person who would love you unconditionally and now you'll be alone for the rest of your miserable life"

"I've always been alone", Jenna spat, "My parents abandoned me, the Brodyvallie's wanted to have a child so much it wasn't hard convincing them I was theirs even the pack let me in knowing my scent didn't match red eclipse's and I was happy for a short while but wherever an accursed goes death usually follows"

If she expected any pity from us, I'm afraid it's a bit too late for that.

"I didn't ask for your sob story where the fuck is Orso", I say.

She almost seemed remorseful when she said, "I have no idea who took his body Blair". I tugged at the roots of my hair and screamed feeling completely helpless.

"Get out", I growled my vision turning blurry red as I fought of my primal self. Jenna's eyes widened in terror. My body started to forcefully shift, my fangs and claws elongating, my ears and tail protruding as I fell to all four panting, trying to control the deadly rate at which my heart was beating.

Noni, Banner and Fazirya stood on the sidelines watching as Banner shielded the girls with his body. I turned looking at a petrified shaking Jenna, "You have ten seconds to ran before I rip your throat out pregnant or not", Lycan and I bit out.

Jenna quickly shifted and sped out the door running with her tail between her feet. I fell to my knees changing back into my human form. Banner, Noni and Fazirya came and wrapped their arms around me.

It hurt.

My soul was crying, my mind screaming but my body was incapable of producing tears. The pain in my chest never subsided and it was starting to grow comforting. It's been teen years but it feels like I'm just starting to grieve. At least I'll never have to see Jenna again.

"Blair", my head snapped up at the sound of Rohan's voice. "We have a problem", he says, "It's Mars, He's not waking up"
