Pack of Lies

Chapter 47: Fight to live

Stefano

John had left to speak to the armies that were preparing themselves for a war that could happen at any given time.

"Well, I've been waiting for my last dose, come on".

I had been delaying her last dose as much as I could. This was wrong. By giving her the more concentrated dose she would most certainly kill her friends and family.

My life, my freedom, my family was taken from me for a sick purpose. John ordered me to do wrong for the sake of my family, but I couldn't condemn a good strong young woman to kill everyone she loved whilst being under the influence of drugs.

"Sorry, I was just getting it ready".

Even though there was no reverse drug which could counteract the one in her system, I had chosen a drug that had been given to the leaders to increase strength and stamina. Brooke wouldn't question it. But the lack of drug in her system would affect her thoughts and give her flash backs of the true memories of Eliza and her pack.

It would give her strength to fight the true enemy once she realised the truth.

"Roll up your sleeve please".

Brooke jumped off the table and walked over to me whilst lifting up her sleeve.

She hummed a soft song to herself whilst I injected her with what she believed to be her medication.

There would be side effects to the withdrawal, pain, hallucinations and confusion, but knowing that I could die tonight, I wanted to make things right.

"There. We're all done".

"Thanks Doc. Wow you certainly have increased the dosage, I feel stronger already".

Brooke had no clue and I had a strong feeling she'd come after me once she figured it out.

Suddenly the door burst open and 4 of the strongest warriors walked in all geared up for battle and bowed before Brooke.

"The armies are ready and waiting for you Brooke".

Brooke unexpectedly grabbed a scalpel from one of the metal trays and ran it down her palm before licking the wound she had inflicted on herself.

I shuddered in fear as her eyes turned black and watched as she wiped away the trail of blood dripping from out the corner of her mouth.

"Unleash your wrath on the ones who took our mate. Feast on the blood of the people who betrayed us. I free you from the dungeon I locked you in, Reina".

Never had I feared someone more than I did right now. Brooke was no longer here. Her eyes were as black as night, her body grew taller and she let out a deep sadistic laugh looking at her hands and body as if seeing them for the first time in ages.

"It's about time she let the true queen out".

"Brooke?" I questioned nervously, but before she could even look at me, she grabbed me by the throat and lifted me up off the floor I was standing on.

"Don't mention that bitch's name. She locked me up because I was dangerous, funny how things turned out for her. She's not like me. She's weak and careless. I have control and I will not give it back to her".

Her hand was crushing my throat making me gasp out for the slightest bit of oxygen.

"Reina, let him go" one of the guards jumped in and tried to grab her in hopes of releasing me. But as soon as he touched her, she shoved me to the floor and ripped the guard's throat out with her teeth before leaving him to bleed out on the floor.
