TORI


"Ow." I say out loud to myself while holding the back of my head. I feel like I've just been hit really hard in the back of the head with a bat or something. Most importantly right now though, where am I?

I look around and notice that I'm in a nice bedroom although it's not one I recognize. I begin to question in who's place I'm in but I soon find out once the bedroom door opens and in walks Atlantes. 

"Oh good, you're awake." He smirks. 

I quickly get up off the bed and instantly regret it as my head begins to hurt even more. 

"Ow." I wince out loud again. 

"Don't worry, the pain will go away soon." He tells me.

"Why am I here? Where am I?" I ask him. 

"You are in my bedroom at the moment which will soon become yours." He grins. 

"The hell it will." I spit at him. 

"Oh I think you might change your mind." He says confident. 

"No I won't. I will never stay with you. You need to stay the hell away from me and Max." I begin to tell him although memories of what I told Max and Cedric as far as trying to get my aunt and Max's uncle rescued, which I still plan to do, started coming back to mind. 

"You will." He tells me. 

Before answering, I take a moment to think and take in a deep breath and let it out while I realize that what my original plan I had had before will not work now since I have no idea in how I even got here, but I do know that the only solution to all of this is one thing and that's to agree to stay with him. 

"Fine. I'll stay with you, but under one condition." I began. 

"Negotiating are we?" He cocked an eyebrow. 

"Yes. I will stay here with you as long as you promise never to harm Max and his pack ever along with my aunt and his uncle. Speaking of which, they need to be let go." I tell him. 

"Now why would I do that?" He asks. 

"Because, otherwise, if you don't agree to my terms, then I will make sure you never get the chance to get any of my powers and abilities." 

"My my, are we brave?!" HE says mockingly. 

"No, I just don't want anyone else getting hurt." I tell him. 

"Well I hate to break it to you Tori, sweetie, but I don't need your empty threats. You can't take away something that you have already given to me." He begins. 

"What are you talking about?" I asked confused. 

"I'm talking about your abilities, along with Max's. Both of your guys' abilities and powers will make me the strongest of all time." 

"I never let you mark me, so I don't see how that's even possible. So nice try." I smirk. 

"tsk tsk tsk." He says while shaking his head. "Oh Tori, so naive and pathetic. How do you think you even got here?" He tilted his head to the side real quick. 

"I don't know." I admit. 

"I made you come here. I called to you." 

"No you didn't." I snapped at him. 

"I was able to possess you enough to bring you here." 

"How's that? You never marked me. Therefore there's no way you could have possibly been able to do that." 

"You still don't get it?" He asks. "Tori, you have my blood inside of you." He smiles. 

I was taken aback from what he said to me just now and tried to process it all. 

"What the hell are you talking about?" 

"I'm your real father." He grins. 

I looked at him like he was crazy. 

"No you're not." I tell him. "How dare you say that! You killed my father!" I snapped at him. 

"I'm not lying." He says. 

"Yes you are! I swear that if you don't shut the hell up, i'll do it for you." I threaten him. 

We see Cedric come walking into the room towards us. 

"Hey guys." He begins. 

"Not now." Atlantes says to him through clenched teeth. 

"Sorry, I was just wanting to...." He started but was immediately stopped by Atlantes. 

"I said not now!" Atlantes snaps at Cedric and then with the flick of his hand, he throws Cedric hard against the wall. 

I quickly run to Cedric's side and he's out cold. I then look up at Atlantes while standing up and start stomping over to him.

"You son-of-a-bitch." I say with disgust at him and he stops me by raising me in the air with his hand, choking me, but yet not touching me. 

"I tried to make things work and was even considering your offer in not harming your little boyfriend. However, since you refuse to agree to my terms, I guess, you're just not worth it." He says and right as I feel myself about to pass out from the lack of oxygen, I hear the running footsteps coming closer towards us and then feel myself fall hard onto the ground and gasp for air.
