To Control The

Chapter 21 (Damien's POV)

I groan as I hear what seems to be like a heart monitor. I try to sit up, but feel cold metal on either side of me. I open my eyes to the fact that I'm handcuffed to the bed. "Well, this is new?" I wiggle my hands as a nurse comes in. "Someone's awake? You took quite a lot of damage here. The first bullet nicked your abdominal aorta.. We had to go inside and clear the internal bleeding and patch it up. Your shoulder is fine. Time will heal the wounds." I look up at her and cock my eyebrow, "Can you explain these?" I say as I wiggle my hands, as to point out that they are cuffed. "Ah yes! Those things."
She looks out of my room and nods at someone. I sit up prepared to attack at any moment. A police officer walks into my view and I think. "What the fuck?!" "I see that you're finally awake sir.. Is it alright if I ask you a couple of questions?" I nod softly and he smiles. "Perfect! Where were you the night a security guard was brutally murdered? The man who actually guarded down in your parking garage.. His name was Frank.." My eyes widen as I come to the realization. "Did I kill Frank? No.. He was nice and I always brought him lunch when it was too late for him to go on his own.." I shake my head as the officer watches me closely. "And what about the night a woman by the name of Riley, who was brutally killed in a park?"
My eyes widen again as I remember her on the news. That happened a month ago. I shake my head as I also remember Riley who was once Layla's old roommate. The one who kicked her out. "No.. Someone's trying to frame me.." I look up at the officer as he crosses his arms and says, "That's quite an assumption there son.." "Well someone is.. That someone is my father.. He has my girlfriend.." "You mean a Miss Layla Smith? That girlfriend..?" "Yes, He took her when I got shot at the airport.. I think.. I don't remember much. My sister distracted me.." "Your sister? Boy, you're an only child." I shake my head in disagreement with him. I tug on my cuffs as I say, "Officer, I'm telling you. I have a sister. She helped my father escape prison. I can prove it." "Son, you better calm down before I ask the nurse here to sedate you." He says as he holds his hand against his holster. "They don't believe me.."
I tug at my cuffs again and the officer grips his holster hard. The nurse pushes a button on the side of my bed and calls two other nurses, the big guns, they restrain me as the nurse plungs a large sedative into my neck. "FUCK!" I groan as the male nurses let go of my head as I begin to feel heavy and drift in and out of consciousness. The police officer and nurse watch me closely to make sure that I'm knocked out.
Hours pass as the sedative has passed through my system, I groan in awareness that I'm still in this damn hospital. I open my eyes and see that it's nighttime. I gaze towards the clock and see that it's midnight to be exact. I move my hands softly as they are still cuffed to the bed. "Fuck me!" I groan in irritation as I try to snap the cuffs, but as modern medicine comes, it renders me weak for the time being. I sigh as I lay back and think of Layla. "Where is she? Where could my father have taken her? Why did my family have to be so fucked up?" I breathe softly as I look towards the door and see that armed guards are standing at my door and think. "Well.. There goes that idea of escaping through the front door.." I look towards the window. "Hmm.. Like father, like son as they always say.." I growl as I guide my wolf up from the depths of his long awaken slumber. My eyes glow their usual orangish-yellow color as I snap the cuffs off with ease. I sit up, rubbing my wrists as they are sore from the officers rough handling me. Rude. I chuckle to myself. I get up, groaning quietly at my injuries. "Nothing greater than a silver bullet weakening you huh?" I sigh as I rip off my hospital gown and get on my hands and knees as I begin to shift into my inner wolf. My bones and muscles snap, twist, break as I will myself to become the animal I was made to be. An officer shines a flashlight into my room and sees that I'm not in bed and sounds the alarm. I hear the intercom, "Patient from room 1532 has escaped!" I growl as the officer opens the door and I leap onto the bed angrily as he falls onto his ass fearful for his life. Which he should be. Big bad wolf's gonna get you. I growl as more and more nurses and officers crowd my room. "Come here doggie doggie.." Find the patient while we deal with this mutt" "How did a dog get in here?!" I hear as the nurses scream and the officers cower in fear. I look towards the window. "Here goes nothing.. Layla.. I'm coming for you." "Poor doggie is gonna jump.. Someone grab it!"  I leap towards the window, putting my faith on my own four feet. "Let's hope, I don't die. Not until I find Layla. Dad, I'm coming for you and my sister. I'll rip you limb from limb. I'm coming to save you Layla!"
