Badass Cora

Chapter 10

Cora's POV
"What?" I asked.

"Why did you save him?" He asked again.

"Because I felt like."

"You got to be kidding me. So you go around saving the bad guy's ass and almost killing the good guys killed just because you feel like. Left to me I'd say you are still working for you low life father."

I was trying to control myself. I didn't want to do anything because I knew he doesn't know what he is saying. "You are the reason we are here. You are the reason my house exploded. I am hundred percent sure that Victor sent you here by accident."  He continued. I honestly don't know why he is acting like this but his words hurt me more than he know. And he doesn't even know the truth about his house.
"Why don't you go meet the asshole you call a father."

That did it. "What the fuck is your problem? I came here to try to be opened with you guys. I finally accepted the idea of having a team. And now you've ruined it."

"It's better that way I don't want to have a killer's daughter on my team." He said.

For the first time I allowed that statement to hit me. "Fuck you." I took a step closer to him. "Do you think it's my choice to be born in the family I am in. Yes my father took away all your families. He tortured them and killed them. Do you know the worst part about that he made me watch." I was very close to him now and all I could see was red. I was burning with anger. "Do you know what it is like to live with him?" I punched him and he stumbled backwards. "To be called his daughter?" I punched him again and he fell this time. "Do you have any idea the shit I have been through. He locked me in a room with a serial killer when I was six years old. Fucking six. Do you know what happens when a serial killer has his way with the daughter of the man who took the love of his life away? No you don't!" I yelled. I was so angry. "Because you haven't been there before. You weren't there when he would beat me up because he was angry, or when he locked me up with a ton of men telling them if they could kill me they'd have their freedom. You weren't there Zeus so you don't get to judge whatever the fuck I do. I fucking hate you Zeus. Since you think you know my father so well why don't you bring up what next to do, I am going solo." I turned to the door. "Remember you are helpless right now. No weapons, no sources, no leverage, nothing. Let me tell you the truth Zeus you won't last one fucking minute in this fucked up game!" Then I left the room and began to walk to the elevator. I was so angry it was a miracle I didn't kill him.

"Cora wait." Logan said. I turn and saw the guy there except Zeus. "He didn't mean what he said."

"He is just being an ass. That's all." Luca said.

"We can't do this without you." Xander said.

"Look it nice how you all stick up for him but I am not going to be on the same team with him. That's final. Remember one thing always keep your head low, very low, because right now, we are all a target and we are vunerable "With that I entered the elevator and the door closed.

Zeus's POV
"What the hell Zeus!" Logan yelled. "You know we can't do anything without her."

"What is your problem. I mean she was trying to open up for the first time and give us some details but you ruined it." Xander said angrily.

I honestly regret what I did but she provoked it. She may have done nothing but her nothing did a lot of things. I was confused. And I hate it. I hated the fact that she saved a bad guy. One of the guys responsible for exploding my house. The man we are hunting took away my family and I want revenge. But he is playing some kind of sick game with us and he knows our next move before we take it. He might even know we are here in this hotel. And we can't do a thing about it.

"Zeus tell me something. What did that house mean to you?" Luca asked. I looked at him. He was the only one who asked that question. He knew me so well. That's why he is also my closest brother. Even if it sounds weird but it the truth. "Because I have been sitting here wondering why you would do some so stupid and the only reason I can think of is the house. Was it that important. So what did the house mean to you bro?"

"I built it for my lost parents." I said. "I built that house in honor of them, it was the only thing that I had for them." I said. "It was my old man's dream house. I found the blue print buried in his house. I built it for them, in the last city there were in." I ran my hand through my hair.

"So why take it out on Cora?" Luca asked.

"I don't know." I lied. I took it out on Cora because I wanted her to hate me. I guess it worked.

I hate how she makes me feel. I don't like it. But I don't want her away from me. I don't understand what is happening.

I know she is the daughter of the person who killed my parents, I should hate her but I can't. The only possible thing I can do is push her away. But it very hard. Especially seeing her hurt.

For the first time in my life I am stuck and confused. And it's all because of Cora.

"Well since you aren't telling me anything. I am going after her." Luca said standing up. "If there are any complication call."

"You too." Logan said.

Then he left and closed the door behind him.

Thank God for Luca. He knows how to hide his shit.
All of them do. Xander has a fiancée. They were supposed to get married 4 day from now. But he is stuck here. What if he doesn't make it. Something Cora said rang in my ears. We may not all make it out of this alive. And I had a weird feeling it was true.

If he hurts Cora, I would go after that jerk immediately, I won't care if I may die or not. My one mission becomes to rescue the one I love.
'Is that what you would do if Cora got captured.' That voice inside me asked.
