The Beast's Mistake

Chapter 8

Alice

I forgave him.

I cant believe i just forgave him. The man who almost killed me, the man who made me cough out blood and made me suffer.

But i meant it. I meant my forgiveness.

The sound of glass cut me off of my thoughts.

I turned my head to see Alaric there, holding a plate and a glass of water.

"Here, come eat dinner with me" He said as he gave me my food.

We ate our dinner in comfortable silence.

"Whats your favourite food?" Out of the blue, he asked "uhh.. fries. Yup, definitely fries." My eyes lit up. He sat there, looking at me in awe. " what about yours?" I asked " lobsters." He answered.

After we finished answering questions about each other, Alaric picked up the plates and placed them on the table.

He helped me lay down in the uncomfortable hospital bed and placed a soft kiss in my forehead. I blushed at his actions.

"Goodnight, love" he said " Goodnight Alaric" I said but more like whispered because i was slowly drifting off to sleep.

He turned off the lights and went out then closed the door.

I then started sleeping.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Heavy footsteps slowly but painfully came near me. My whole body was aching from the beating yesterday, i didn't even believe i would still wake up today.

Suddenly, i was yanked by the hair which was very painful, rough hands forced me to look at my tormentor's face.

I hate to admit but, he looks pretty handsome. Wait- no, he looked like an actual greek god. If he wasn't evil, I would've actually fell for him.

"You honestly think im done with you after yesterday" My tormentor's dark voice said. I bit my lip hard to prevent my big fat mouth from saying anything and getting myself killed. So, i didn't do anything.

He lets me go. I fell to the ground with a hard thud.

He walked away from me to get something.

Then thats when i knew it, i smelled a strong scent of silver.

I saw him there standing with a whip on his hand. I knew i was going to be tortured again.

He smirked evilly as he saw fear in my eyes. He came towards me and hit me, hard with the whip. My skin burned due to the silver coated in it.

After an hour of torment, he was finally satisfied. I was left with hundreds of cuts all over my body. The pain was unbearable. It felt like i was being eaten alive.

But before he leaves, he punched me in the face.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up soaked in sweat.

These dreams have been haunting me almost everynight, making me more distant to Alaric than i already am.

Every torment he did left scars not only physically but mentally as well.

Bu-

I was cut off of my thoughts by a door getting pushed open.

A man whose name i don't know came up to me and said

"Luna, we need to get you somewhere safe. Rogues are attacking the pack"
