Revenge of the Wolf

Chapter 19 – Don't Give Up.

No One's POV.

Seeing Tori, the way she was, really hit home for Jade. Knowing what she did was bad enough, but seeing the physical results in the form of a dirty and frightened wolf, was almost too much to bear.

Tears streamed like a river down Jades face, as she carefully reached into the cage.

"Please baby....it's me.....I'm so sorry."

Jade got her hand within about 8 inches of Tori, before the wolf viciously snapped at her.

The startled Goth, yanked her hand back just in time to prevent her from losing several fingers.

Devastated by the vicious attack, Jade retreated across the floor, to the far end of the room. There, huddled in the corner she completely broke down.

For more than an hour, Jade sobbed hysterically, calling out Tori's name over and over. It was only when she exhausted herself, did she stop. Then she lay on the floor, staring at a spot at the wall, not moving, not speaking.

All the while, Tori quietly but cautiously watched her from inside her cage.

Two more hours past, with Jade still quietly staring at the wall and Tori still in her cage.

"You're waiting, are you?" Jade said, in a low voice, her eyes not diverting from the wall.

Of course, there was no response from the wolf.

"You're waiting for the right moment to rush out of that cage and kill me. Waiting to see if my defenses are down."

"We never got married or even discussed it. Does that bother you? You never complained about it. I loved you and we were together, you were my mate, we had children. I thought....."

Jade chuckled darkly. "I thought wrong...about you, about everything. I'm not cut out for this Tori. Me being a queen of all werewolves or just being a werewolf, period. I'm supposed to lead us and there are thousands of us all around the world. I thought me being strong was all that mattered. What the fuck did I know? I wanted to be an actress and a singer....I'm not a fucking general. I didn't want this. I didn't even listen....."

Jade continued to talk, reminiscing about their meeting and lives together, but in a sad sort of way. Like the way someone would talk about someone that was long gone.

After she found she had nothing more to say, Jade sighed and in a barely audible voice lamented. "I failed you.....about now, I wish you had killed me. I'm not going to move Tori, not a muscle. Just put me out of my misery. If you feel bad about it, just think of it this way; it wouldn't be an act of murder...it would be an act of mercy. I can't go on without you...."

Jade then closed her eyes and spoke no more, nor did she move.

For some time after, the wolf continued to watch the now motionless figure across the room. She felt fear but didn't quite know why. It was her natural instinct to snap at the creature as it reached for her.

But it had gone silent and did not move. It just lay there.

Still the wolf waited, how long it didn't know, but yet the other one did not move. It was still alive as her ears could hear the slow breathing of its opponent.
