The Darkest Angel (Sequel To The Dark Side)

Punches and Fortune

Melanie's POV

- 4 months later -

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

All I could hear was the clock above the door, but I didn't know the time. I have completely lost my mind. I didn't get many food or drink, Jen tortured me every 2nd day and all I could watch is the sunrise and sunset. When it was dark, there was a candle so I wouldn't feel uncomfortable. I didn't really cried, I accepted my fate. If I cried, I would cry because I missed Dark and I hated myself for being a demon. The maids couldn't do anything, because they knew if they try to help me, they will die. All day my hands were chained and so my legs, and I was laying or sitting on the ground. It would have been useless for me to stand up. I lost everything. My life, my soulmate, my friends and myself.

Rainy day, around 10am. Water was coming down a little from that little window. If I could reach it, I could drink it. My dressed had holes and ripped parts because I ate it. I was so hungry, I was literally starving. All I had in my head was suicidal thoughts. If I could commit suicide, I would be free. But I stayed. Stayed for Dark. I couldn't leave him in this world without a girl who can understand him the most. We both know that the time will come when we will be free.

"What are thinking about?" I heard Jen's disgusting voice.

"Shut the fuck up. " I said quietly.

"What?" She asked back.

"I SAID SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCKING BITCH!" I yelled at her.

"How rude." She said. "I just wanted to remind you about your appointment."

"What appointment?" I asked.

"Are you kidding me? Did you already forget it?" She laughed. "Some scientists will come here and try to connect your brain to computer to help me find the orb."

"I need to forget it, I need to destroy this memory."

"And I told them to make this machine torture you while it is connected to you." She said.

"Fuck you." I said.

Jennifer walked back and I was alone again. But then I saw two people walking by the window.

"C'mon Stevie, it is not a big thing to do." A girl said, it wasn't Jen, this girl had higher voice.

"Zara, I told you many, many times that I have to fake this. You don't get it." Steve said, I knew I heard his voice.

"I understand it, but I am getting very impatient. You have been with her for months now." Zara said.

"Are you jealous?" Steve said.

"Of course! You fucked her many times-"

"But only, because I wanted her to trust me. " Steve said. "If Melanie dies, Jen will have no problem and that's gonna be the time when we get into the story."

"But Jen doesn't want Melanie to die, she just wants to torture her." Zara told him.

"Then we have to kill her."

Okas, that was too much for me. So many people really want my death, huh? Or just our fortune. But that's not gonna happen. Since I've heard that Jen is a fake girlfriend for Steve, she will murder him and his real girlfriend. But how am I gonna tell her?

"That sounds fun." Zara said.

"Then let's look around the castle." And they walked away.

Since I've had chains around my wrists and ankles, I couldn't leave this place. So I had to do something else. I knew shouting would do nothing, so I need to find something that could open my locks. The keys were with Jen, I had no weapons, I had nothing to open these things... But maybe I can use my demon powers?
