Turbulent Ryver

Chapter 12

Ryver's POV

That bastard locked me in his room, I can't believe he did that, well, actually, I can. What is up with this macho man bullshit? "I am man, you are woman, you hide while I defend your honor" blah blah blah. I have to get out of here. "There you are, Ryver." I turn and see a grinning Malachi and Darius standing in the open window. The next thing I know, everything goes dark. My head is pounding when I wake up, what the hell just hit me?"Good, you are awake." I see Malachi standing in the doorway of an all-white clinical looking room. "Where am I and what do you want?" I try to move but I am tied to a chair. Crap. 

"Funny you should ask that you see our Coven Leader wants to run a few tests on you." He grins. I laugh,"Liam and Luke are around here somewhere, they will find me." His grin grows, "Nope, they are at the branch on the docks, you are in our main facility. They don't even know that you are gone yet." Fuck, I guess I am on my own, well that is what I wanted. I narrow my eyes at him, "Who is this leader?" He shakes his head, "You don't need to know that." I growl out, "TELL ME NOW! I WANT TO SEE THEM, NOW!"He stiffens and then walks out, that was odd. I am fiddling with the ropes around my wrists when the door opens again, this time, the person that walks in makes my heart stop beating. "Mom?" She smiles, but it isn't the smile I am used to, this one is evil. "Yes, dear. You are what I have been trying to create for many years. I was so happy when your father got the job to move to Whisper Springs, knowing that it was full of test subjects. I have been trying for more than two decades to create a hybrid, and now I have. Honestly, it was an accident. I was trying to kill you by having both of those boys attack you, but this worked out so much better." 

"What the actual fuck! Does dad or the boys know about any of this? Do they know what and who you are, you are a fucking witch. Jesus, Mary, Joseph and the donkey, what is wrong with you, I am your daughter?" I growl at her. Her face morphs into one of anger, "No, they have no idea and you wouldn't have either, but then you had to get all chummy with the mutt and the leech. Imagine, a witch with one of those beasts. So, I had to kill you, plus it would weaken them both since they were so attached to you, it was a win-win. However, you survived the change and now I have the perfect test subject." She claps her hands with glee. Oh hell no, I am so not staying here and being a science experiment. NOT Happening. "So this is what you do instead of working? Go figure, you where always a weirdo, now I know why." She sneered at me, "I am a weirdo because I didn't want to train with you guys? Because I didn't want to wake up ungodly early to run? Because I didn't want to roll in the dirt and beat my children?" I laugh, "No, not beat, just try to kill and then run experiments on them. You are one sick bitch." She slaps me hard across the face. "You will not speak to me like that, young lady, I am still your mother."  I couldn't help but laugh, "You aren't my mother, you are just an incubator. I have one parent, my Dad. He was the only one who ever took an interest in us kids anyway. Honestly, why did you marry Dad and have us, if we are such a burden?" She shrugs, "As a coven leader we are expected to blend into society, so the wife and mother thing was a part of that. I have never loved your Dad nor have I wanted you three brats." Well, that was harsh. 

"Well, as much as I have loved this little mother-daughter moment, you need to be taken to the cells, tomorrow the work begins, sleep well, child." She says leaving the room. Not two seconds later, Malachi and Darius enter and grab me roughly by the arms. They drag me down some stairs to a dark, damp cell. There is very little light, one small bed in the corner, that is it. They throw me in, still tried up. "For all the trouble you have caused us, your mom said we could have a little fun with you." Malachi tells me with a sick grin. They both reach for me, I try to fight them off but I can't get loose. They hit me over and over, by the time they are done with me and leave my cell, Liam's virgin issue is a thing of the past. 

I am laying on my side in the tiny bed, covered in blood, bruises and other things I don't even want to think about. I am pretty sure that my wrist is broken, a few ribs, my nose, and my arm. The pain is horrible, but the broken wrist may just help me get out of these ropes. I wiggle and grind my teeth through the pain, finally, I get free. I untie my feet with some difficulty and am finally free, from the ropes at least. I look around my cell, there are no cameras down here, that is a blessing. I walk around looking for a way out when I hear someone coming. I lay back down, quickly and make it look like I am still tied up. Darius strolls in and unlocks my cell, grinning. "You were so sweet the first time, I wanted to come back for seconds." I shudder but wait til he is close enough. I grab him and snap his neck. Stupid son of a bitch. I carefully creep out of my cell. Thankfully, I have great night vision, so I can see clearly. I make my way slowly up the stairs, freezing when I hear voices.
