A Second Chance

Chapter 7

I watched as all three hit him from his side to the front of him. I screamed.

I watched as Derek fell to the forest floor and more blood-soaked his clothes. I fell next to him trying to help stop the bleeding by applying pressure. But there were too many gunshot holes for me to cover. Hot tears streamed down my face.

"Derek," my voice sounded shaky.

"If I can't have you no one can," I could hear Jake behind me. "I'm the only one allowed to touch you! You're mine! No one wants you! They just want to use you for your body! Why can't you see that?! He only wants you for sex! I would never do that can't you see?! Why won't you love me?!" he screamed at me.

"How could I love a monster like you?" I quietly asked while slowly standing up and turning around to look him in the eye. "Someone who did exactly what you just said and more," I made a small short laugh in disgust. "You used me for my body. You did things to me that I hope no female around you will ever experience like what I experienced with you. You made me do things I never wanted to do no matter how much I begged you to stop you kept on doing it. Every. Single. Time. How could I ever love you after what you put me threw? You raped me. You abused me. You tortured me. And you did it all with a smile on your face. You even laughed at me when you did those things to me. You got away with it all every single time. And anytime I said anything about what you did to me to someone else, you hurt me even more saying it's my fault that I made you do this to me. Well, you know what?! Fuck you, Jake Williams! I'm going to enjoy doing to you some of the things you did to me. And I'm going to do it with a smile on my face and laugh just like you did to me!" I had him backed up against a tree. His face had a look of terror. God how long I've waited to see that emotion cross his face.

I could feel my claws extend from my hands.

"I'm sorry I did those things to you. I'm so sorry," he said while crying. I could smell that he peed his pants. I laughed.

"Do you honestly think an apology is going to fix what you did? YOU KILLED ME!" I screamed in his face.

I took a swipe at his chest and watched as blood started to run down his body. I smiled. He screamed out. After a couple of more small swipes to keep him alive long enough I started to see red. I didn't even know what was happening anymore. All I could feel was utter enjoyment from the pain I was inflicting on Jake.

After I was able to calm down I could see again. I had to blink a few times to adjust my eyes to my surroundings. When I looked I was covered in blood from head to toe. I looked down at the ground around me. The forest floor was covered in red hot sticky blood. At first, I didn't notice until I stared a bit more at what I was looking at. I realized I was looking at Jake's head. His eyes were wide and mouth open in the form of a scream in pure terror. But his head wasn't attached to his body anymore. Parts of his body were lying in pieces all around me. I took a step back and fell to my knees. What the fuck just happened? I had to blink a few more times trying to process everything.

I turned toward Derek who was still lying on the ground. He was super pale. I crawled to him.

"Derek?" I whispered. His heart rate was really slow. Too slow. Fresh tears spilled from my eyes mixing with the blood covering my face. "Derek please don't die," I said grabbing onto his jacket. His phone started ringing making me jump. With shaky hands, I searched for his phone and attempted to answer the call. It was Peter. Of course, it was.

'Derek, where are you?'

"Peter," I broke out in a sob.

'Jade. What happened?'

"I didn't know Jake had a gun. He shot him four times. Derek isn't healing. You have to help me, please," my voice started to crack. My tears were making my vision blurry.
