Hunted

Chapter 15

"You did not!" I  laugh and I shove Chase. He laughs, the sound making the cell sound alive. 

"I did. You should've seen my dads face when he found out!" He insists. I begin laughing again. 

"My dad would've killed me!" I say. 

"I think my dad was considering disowning me" He nods. I laugh, my eyes falling to our joined hands. I know I shouldn't of enjoyed it. But I did. I loved being his arms, sometimes he'd hold me until I slept. I loved listening him to laugh because it would make my heart feel so light. His childish smile and his stupid stories that I would never forget. 

"I've been telling you everything about my life. Tell me about you El?" I fight the smile forming because of his nickname. 

"My life is hardly as interesting as yours" 

"Your my mate, I want to know you" 

"Well, my name is Elliana Violet Matthias" My last name doesn't spark anything from him. 

"I'm a descendant from one of the first five supernatural hunters" 

"My favorite color is black because it's bold and just because I do. My favorite animal is definitely a white tiger because they are just stunning. I like sushi, but only ones with tuna and I can't use chopsticks to save my life. I had a brother. He was a joker an it used to drive me insane. If I wasn't a hunter then I'd want to be a something to do with police work. Maybe homeland security or something" 

"So you want to save people?" 

"Pretty much" I kick at the carpet. 

"I'm going to be something someday" He says. "I don't have any idea what though. It'll come to me one day. I might have to help out with pack" 

"You're the beta's brother?" I ask. 

"Yeah"

"So you're third in command?" 

"Yeah"

"What about me?" I ask. He looks at me. 

"Would this pack ever accept a hunter as their Gamma Female?" 

"I don't know the answer to that" We stay there silently. 

There was no future for us. So why were we pretending that there ever could be? 

Chase tenses. "Something's wrong" He stands up and looks at the door which is ripped off its hinges. I gasp at the Alpha. He moves forward, takes Chase's neck in his hands and throws him at the wall. 

"Where is she!?" The Alpha shouts at me, the pain and anger in his voice send a chill down my back. 

"I-I can'-" He pulls out a knife and walks over to Chase. When it clicks what he's about to do, I move forward.

"Hey! What are you-" He hits me. I feel my nose crack. I clutch my, now, bleeding nose. 

"I told you, one month. It's been a month. My child is dead, tell me where she is or else your mate will be too, you'll feel what I felt!" He screams at me. 

No. 

"I-I..." 

Don't say anything. They'll kill you. Don't.

"Okay then" And he slashes Chase's arm. I cry at the sight of it. Chase groans. 

"No, don't-" I begin. 

"Where is my mate!"

"I-I don't know. Please I-" And then he breaks Chase's arm. The snap brings me to my knees. 

"Tell me, or I'll kill him" He says quietly. Chase is barely conscious.

"You won't" I say. "You won't kill your pack member" 

"I will, just watch" And he lifts the knife up. 

"No! Okay" I sob. "I don't know where she is" I admit. 

He drops Chase and turns to me. 

"What?"

"I don't know where she is now" I whisper. 

"Don't lie to me" He turns to Chase and he lifts his knife. 

"Leo, no" Chase coughs. 

"Wait, I do know something"  I bite my lip. 

"Then spit it out" 

"Alpha A-Alric. He ordered us to take her. That's all I know, I swear" 

The Alpha freezes. "What?" 

"He told us. It was Alpha Alric"
