The Captive

Chapter 11

I take a left at the doorway, I have no idea where I am going, but I know that if I turned right I would be back at the dungeons. I make sure to keep a strong grip on the gun, I never understood why people would always drop their only weapon after hitting the villain in the movies. Their lives would have been much easier if they had kept their weapon to defend themselves later. I continue running until there is a split, I decide to take another left. Up ahead I see a turn, but then a whole bunch of guards turn from the corner towards me.

"Shit!" I yell as they all notice me and start running. I turn around and start running the other direction. Adrenaline pumps through my veins and I make my short legs run faster than they ever had. A staircase appears up ahead and I run up, skipping steps as I go. There is a door up ahead which I slam open, continuing to run. I hear the guards climbing up the stairs behind me.

It looks like I am in the same hallways as before from when I was working with Maggie. It's good to know that I am finally on ground level, thus making it easier to find an exit.

A shrill scream pierces the hallway, I look to see a woman about 20 years old pointing her finger at me and screaming. She looks like a she-wolf based solely on being super tall and beautiful. I'm surprised that she is screaming at me, I can't look that bad can I? I look down and notice the blood splatter all over my dress and legs. Oh. I guess that could cause some reason for concern.

The thumping of boots brings me out of my trance and I start running once again, trying to ignore the girl's shrill screams that are about to burst my eardrums. I take a right and then a left, trying to lose the men on my trail. I haven't seen any doors that could lead outdoors yet, but up ahead I see a large open window. I know exactly what I have to do.

As soon as I get close enough to the window I jump. Soaring through the window and then landing rather ungracefully, I quickly get back up and start running across the yard. I feel the stares of all the people that are outside as they watch me run for my life.

I made the stupid mistake of looking behind me and I see so many guards. All dressed in black rushing after me. I raise my hand and start firing shots at them, they all dodge easily. I keep shooting until I hear a click.

Shit! I'm all out of bullets! Now I have to rely solely on my running skills, which compared to them is nothing.

All of a sudden I am tackled from the side, I hit the ground hard with a heavy being on top of me. I start kicking, punching, scratching, anything to escape. But at the same time I feel tingles and sparks wherever my skin touches the other person's skin.

"Stop making a fool of yourself! It was pathetic enough that you thought you could escape," growls out the person holding me captive. Fuck! It was Alpha Luca. I didn't think that he would be able to chase after me since I shot him in the leg. Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! I should have just killed him, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

He stands up, bringing me along with him, and starts dragging me across the lawn back to the mansion. I continue to kick and scream even though I know I can't escape his hold.

"Get the fuck off of me you fucking piece of shit! Rot in hell you son of a bitch! You fucking deserve to die! I will kill you! I will kill all of you!" I look around, continuing to scream my head off. The people just stare back, some whispering to the people next to them. I hate their stares. I don't want them looking at me.

"What the hell are you all looking at! Do you see this?! I didn't do shit and y'all are trying to torture me! What the hell is wrong with you people?!" I feel the tears start pricking at my eyes but I do not shed them. I will not let anyone see me cry. They shall not see my pain. My suffering. I will not give them that power over me.
