Mountains And Plains [OLD VERSION]

Chapter 29

I looked at the young man and frowned.

'What are you doing here?' I asked letting my hair go. I did not like us being alone away from the village.

Suddenly, a smirk appeared on his face and he took a step towards me.

'To think that such a modest person would hold an answer to this war's end' he said and my body froze. Alarm bells rang in my head and Snow was stiff, ready to move.

'I don't know what you are talking about' I said and took a step back and the man mirrored me walking forward. Fear and worry bubbled inside my chest.

'Omega will want to know everything you know, Ary' he said and I felt arms grab me from behind me. I started to struggle and tried to scream but the young man stuffed some cloth in my mouth. I gagged and tasted some sour thing in cloth making my mind heavy. My body slowed down and completely relaxed against my wish.

'Good night' I head man's voice by my ear and I blacked out.

<><><><><><><><><>

My body was stiff and my head hung low when I felt myself awake. I was sitting on the ground with my hands tied behind something round like a log or a trunk. With pounding head I opened my eyes and saw my legs sprawled.

With groan I lifted my head and saw that I was in a cave. I looked around and fear gripped me again.

I was in a torture room.

But this one was different from the one I was tied before. This one had table to my right with tools and stone pedestal to my left. The lenght was enought to lay down a full grown man. In front of me a fire was ablaze in a firepit and an exit was visible through flames.

I tried to move my hands but I felt tight rope around my wrists. There was no way out of this like last time.

My eyes moved to the exit when a shadow appeared. The man walked into the room and made his way towards me.

I couldn't believe what I saw.

'Old man' I breathed out when the shaman stoped before me. But now his face was void of any emotion only cold stare.

'We meen again' he said his voice cold.

'Why are you doing this?!' I asked still shocked.

'Because I want to destroy the mountain tribe. Just because you people have rougher land to live doesn't mean you can kill us like animals' he spat while I frowned.

'I don't understand what you are trying to say' I said. Was this war because of land?

'Of course you wouldn't. While you lived your nice pretty life away from here, I had to watch my people suffer simply because we wanted to get rid off the barrier that keeps us locked in here' he explained malice in his voice.

'But the barrier protects this place!' I shouted confused.

The old man laughed as if I said a joke.

'From what? People like you?' He snickered.

'No, from technology we have! Your people are not ready to face us! We have things invented that could kill you in seconds whitout you able to move from your spot!' I tried to explain but he brushed my words away.

'I don't care what people have, nothing can kill our inner wolfs!' He shouted and I simply looked at him. This man was crazy. Of course he wouldn't believe me whitout seeing a gun before his eyes.

Suddenly, two men walked into the room. They stoped a few steps away from us waiting for something.

The old man turned to me his eyes dead cold.

'Well then, Ary, please tell me about silver' he said and I glared at him.

'I don't know what you are talking about' I said but the man wasn't fased by my lie.

'Kayle saw you throw silver hair pin to your friend. He used it against another wolf. He said he was in immerse pain' the old man said.

'I did no such thing' I denied. He simply humed and turned to men.

'Tie her to the stone and bring the silver knife.' My eyes went wide on his words. Just hearing word "silver" Snow whined inside of me.

One of the men came and untied me. But before I could fight against his grip he pushed me forward and laid my down pining me down. I struggled with all my might but the man was too strong for me. He tied my hands by my head and my feet exposing my stomach.

I watched as second man came back and gave a knife to the shaman. He made his way to me and looked at me.

'The best way to find out is to test it no?' He said and whitout a warning stabbed my tight.
I wasn't prepared for the pain that came. A scream left my throat as I felt burning pain spread acros my leg. At the same time I felt the bond between me and Snow getting painful resulting of pain inside my chest. Silver was like poison to werewolfs and now I knew how it felt.

The old man pulled the knife out and I whimpered. My leg was getting numb from pain. I was panting with sweat forming on my forehead.

'Do you like the feeling?' The old man asked playing with knife stained with my blood. I staied silent. I could feel Snow healing my wound and that took a lot of energy. The wound was more serious since it was causes by the werewolf "poison".

Shaman turned to two man who stood a bit away from us with blank stares.

'Ready the silver weapons. The northerners will be here any time, I'm sure one of them already felt the pain of his mate' the man laughed and they left leaving me with the old man.

'Let's get some fun shall we?' He asked and slit my wrist earning another scream from me.
