The Hunted

Chapter 15 part 3 ~ Luke

Her eye's were wide and cold, I see the hatred swim in them as she spoke, almost grinding her teeth together. "What? Is this some kind of riddle?" She yelped at me. I sensed her worry and an evil smirk spread across my face.

"Well obviously, it's not like I'm gonna sing you song! So do you know answer I have stashed in my head? Five minutes, I'll give you five minutes. And don't get any ideas, I'm coming back." I headed towards the door, my gait in slow glides, I poked my head over my shoulder and spoke as I looked straight into her skanky bedroom wall, "oh and by the way, I have you're mother."

I walked out and stomped the flight of stairs as flashbacks to 20 minutes ago. First, I silently paid my way to upstairs and drugged Elexis, easy. Then I made my way to sleeping beauty in the lounge room. She had her head cocked up with her hands tucks under her cheeks supporting her head, her hair draped around her face creating a light window over her eyes. Her eyes fluttered opened as I startled her. Then she awakened.

She put up a fight. I blocked every kick, paw, scratch, but and punch she threw at me. I ended it by kicking her guts and pushed her to the ground. I pinned her down between my knees and help her hands above her head. She growled and wriggled under me, I never loosened my grip until I decided to tie her up. She fought hard yet I never got exhausted nor shed a salty drop of sweat, that's how weak she is! I easily I won that battle she put up against me. She knew who I was after, her precious baby girl. Elexis. And now she waited patiently for me to come attend to her.

She seemed to have loosened the ropes draped around her scrawny wrists. Unfortunately for her, I'm here to tighten them again. I kneeled down remembering to keep my distance and kissed her knuckles. She squirmed in her seat fighting my love.

"Stop fighting me Annah!" I growled, "you belong with me! And your daughters power is mine! Don't you understand Annah, together we could do anything! We could take down all alphas and own the most powerful pack." My voice low and deceiving, "we could creat our own!" I whispered. She everted her gaze avoiding my now cold eyes. Frustration boiled, I grabbed her cheeks making her lips pout and forced her eyes upon mine. "Look here Annah, either you join my pack and your daughter willingly gives me her unnatural powers, or," I pulled her closer, her short breath lingered in the twisted air between us, "or I kill you both and make it look like an accident!"

I pulled a knife stashed in my back pocket and ran the side of the silver blade down her cheek. A tear rolled down her face and made its journey to the end of her cheek where slowly it caught on the blade and sped down to the tip near her chin.

I breathed deeply and pulled the knife away questioning my actions. An ear peicing screech ringed in my head. What am I doing?! I yelled at myself, I threw the knife across the floor, it smashed into the side and made a clattering noise only further agitating my headache.

I glanced down at my wrist, two hours have passed and I'm trending in uncharted waters just being here in the first place. I listened for Elexis, nothing. Sometimes, silence screams in my head, the loudest most unsettling noise, could be silence. Argh, I'm probably paranoid, she should still be half paralysed. I walked over to the kitchen and splashed handfuls of cold water onto my heated face hoping it would stop the urge to turn.

Any moment now, I bet that stupid pup or a boyfriend will burst in, probably through the window because he's so numb in the brain, and be all heroic, put on some kind of act and try save the day. Yeah like hell I'm going to let him get away without a punishment, he can't just turn everything upside in my life than leave, no way! Bullshit he's got an alpha girlfriend! I looked around hoping to find some reassurance. Alone. Without my pack, I'm hopeless pretty much hopeless... I know it's sad... Like, really sad but it's true. Unless, unless I suck the living day lights out of her now... No, I can't do that because what if something interrupts my meal, things will really turn into shit. And I'm all alone.

I pulled out a chair with my wolf strength making the chair feel weightless. I sat down, I didn't real how tired and dizzy I felt... I laid my head it on my arms and closed my eyes, a little rest won't hurt. I forget about my surroundings, what I have done as black filled my vision.

I woke up to a crash. The startling sound ringed in my ears as I examined the area. Nothing caught my eyes, until a shadowed figured raced across the arched doorway leading too the lounge room.
