† Chapter Sixteen †

Jenna's pov.

As my numb mind woke up from the coma, my eyes scanned the room I found myself in.The only source of light was shining through a window covered by a dirty white curtain. I could distinguish a desk completely flooded with sheets of paper, some crumpled, others ripped... I looked at myself and I realized that I was tied to a wooden plank perpendicular to the floor. A tube was coming out of my arm and was carrying my blood to an IV, I felt weak, unable to make sounds or open my mouth, my skin was pale, I didn't know what to do... he was here, his back was turned while working at I didn't know what devilry. Something led me to ask myself: was this really my father?I had no escape, I was already dead. If he really was then why would he do this to me?

«I see you woke up baby girl», I heard him chuckle maliciously, «I guess you know what the real reason you're here is. Or maybe your Harold hid that from you as well», he stopped laughing again, «Don't worry, I need some more of your blood and then I'll let you go, but you'll have to do something for me in return», his body rotated on itself showing me his face, he twirled a strange bottle between his fingers and he sighed as he looked at me, «It will be a small favor, you just have to lend me your neck, you won't feel too bad, it will be just a little bite, you will feel better soon after. Now, wait a few seconds and I'll come back to you little Jenna, I'm going to get something downstairs», he laughed loudly as he left the room.

With what little strength I have left, I tried to free myself from these ties on my wrists. Fortunately, my thin wrist managed to slip out of the leather and with one leap I managed to get off the wooden beam. My legs failed to contact with the floor, making me fall, I got up from the ground with difficulty and I removed the needle from my arm, I tried to quickly open the window but it was blocked. As soon as I heard the door open behind me, I suddenly turned around in terror.

«Well, well. What do you think you are doing? Can I remind you that I have your little brother here too?», he grinned dangerously approaching me, «You better obey me if you don't want his head to end up on the embers! Now stay still»

One step away from me, he pressed me against the wall and as soon as he put his hand on my shoulder, again my eyes closed letting small thoughts run, until I got only one left...

His long curly hair moved across his face, his emerald green eyes fixed on mine. Harry was in front of me, smiling at me showing me his adorable dimples.

He didn't look like a vampire, he didn't look like a monster as he defined himself, he was just a man, a normal man who deserved everything happiness could give him. His hand reached my cheek leaving small strokes with his thumb. His intense gaze reminded me why I fell in love with him. Being with Harry I got to know him for who he really was. I've seen sides of him that no one has ever wanted to see and I was glad he gave me the chance to get to know him so deeply.

«Jenna, I'm coming to get you, I'll save you», he softly whispered in my ear. And I trusted this words.

I regained consciousness and stood up. My father... or rather, the Crow, he didn't tie me up this time, he just left me slumped on the ground. 

I heared loud noises and screams coming from downstairs. He was not in here with me. What was happening?

I rush out of the room and went down the stairs stopping in the hall. The front door was wide open and I could see some werewolves and my brother in Gemma's arms. I felt a little calmer now that I knew he was fine but I didn't see Harry and I didn't like that at all.

I got distracted by a suspicious noise behind me before I could turn around, a tight grip on the hips stopped me and right after that I felt a searing bite on my neck. I felt my blood being sucked out and half flowing over my body. I felt numb once again, an atrocious evil made its way inside of me, making me collapse to the ground. I had that empty feeling in my stomach and a sinkhole in my mind again... the only things I could hear were my body dropping and Harry's hoarse voice.

«Jenna, no!»

Harry's pov.

I immediately ran to meet her while the others came in as well. I kneeled and I took her in my arms.

«You see, it was better for you to listen to me», Shane echoed behind us, «If you hadn't come here, none of this would have happened», he laughed.

«You would have done it anyway asshole! You will pay dearly!», I yelled out of my mind, letting my vampire side out without noticing.

«Harry», Randel called, «Worry about Jenna, we'll take care of him», he growled as he prepared to attack along with the whole pack. 

I would never let you become a monster like me, I will save you my love.
