32. Revtions


    Mayra.


    I look at the man that has haunted my dreams for fifteen years. I feel the familiar fear that I used to rush


    through me. My bones lock and my heart constrict. I’m no longer in the room with him and Alice.


    Instead I’m back in theb. Back to those times when he drugged and raped me.


    “How?” I ask. My voice shaky.


    He died. He was supposed to be dead, but here he is. Very much alive.


    I stare at him trying to get my brain to work. To piece things together. One side of his face and neck is


    burned. There is nothing there but marred and scarred skin. It’s raised and bunched up. It looks ugly.


    He is also bald on that side. If he turns and hides the other side. You wouldn’t be able to tell that it is


    him.


    “How am I alive or how am I here with dear Alice?” he asks. His voice deeper than I remember.


    I’m hit with another memory. His groans of pleasure as he released inside me. The memory makes me


    want to puke all over both of them. I turn to look at Alice. Still unable to believe that she betrayed me.


    I still can''t even wrap up my mind how she and Daniel are in this together. I know she knows him from


    what I’ve told her about him but for her to work with him then it means she knows him more than I told


    her.


    “Both” I answer, my eyes shifting between him and her.


    Daniels smiles. Or what you would imagine a semnce of a smile looks like.


    “Now that, my love, is a long story” he says and I see Alice flinch a little.


    I wonder why. Is it because there is something more between them? How the hell did they even meet?


    And how the fuck is he still alive.


    “First of all, I’m not your love…and beside, the fact that you kidnapped me means you n to hold me


    here for a while meaning we have time”


    My voice came out assured but I was shaking inside. I mean, the man of nightmares is alive and he just


    kidnapped me. I won’t let them see how scared I am though. I won’t give them the satisfaction of


    seeing me tremble in fear.


    He rushes to me at an inhuman speed and grabs my jaw. Bringing me close to his face.


    “I told you you’re mine, Mayra. Remember that?.”


    He ces a kiss on my lips and the need to vomit takes over. I felt disgusted and vited. I looked at


    Alice and see pain there. Pain I didn’t understand.


    “Now, I want you to be still while I tell you everything. It’s going to blow your mind at what I’ve managed


    to aplish”


    I let out a sarcasticugh. “It’s not like I can go anywhere with silver chains tied to my wrists and


    ankles”


    “Great…Alice, be a good girl and get me a chair” he snaps his fingers and Alice rushes to get him one.


    I stare at her in astonishment. Is this the same woman who sat with me as I narrated what I had been


    through? Is she the same woman that told me that I had to be strong? Why would she let a piece of shit


    dictate her? She was a werewolf for fucks sake.


    “Where to begin” he starts. “Ah, I will begin on the night that your people attacked myb and took what


    was mine. It was an agonizing and painful night. I mean we had no idea that we would be found let


    alone attacked.


    The government didn’t even know about us. Those scientists were so foolish thinking that it was a


    government project and that I was just a benefactor.


    I can’t say that I shed a tear when they were killed I honestly didn’t give a fuck. I begged you to help me


    but you didn’t and I understand that it was because you were weak. You couldn’t help anyone”


    What the hell? Was this man delusional? I didn’t help him because I hated him. Because I wanted him


    to die, not because I couldn’t.


    He continued. “After you left me, I crawled and pushed myself to get out. I knew the building would


    blow anytime and while your people were distracted with saving the remaining wolves, I took that


    opportunity to escape.


    I was sure that if they found me they wouldn’t let me live and I couldn’t let you live all alone with the


    pain of losing me. It was terrible honestly, slithering through the fire while you were already burnt. I got


    out just in time to witness my building blow up”


    I’ve never wanted to hit anyone like I did right now. The guy was fucked up in the head and it showed.


    He actually believed that I would shed a tear if he died. Believed that I cared for him and that I felt the


    same. It was disturbing.


    “I waited until everyone left. I don’t even know how no one noticed that someone had escaped death. I


    managed to get out of the field and into the forest. I passed out after that and when I woke up, I was in


    a house. Turns out Alice found me during her morning runs and saved me”


    So that’s how they met. But still, something didn’t add up.


    I face Alice who was leaning against the wall.


    “Why would you save him? Given the fact that you took him home instead of a hospital meant that you


    knew or suspected that he was one of the humans that held us captive. Why didn’t you hand him over


    to the council?” I ask her. Angercing my voice.


    This was her fucking fault. She should have killed him when she found him instead she helped him.


    “He is my mate. I couldn’t do that to him” she says in a soft and almost childlike voice.


    Saying I was shocked would be an understatement. My mind was blown away. I just couldn’t believe it.


    Was the moon goddess ying a trick or something? Why would she mate a man who harmed her


    children to one of her own? It didn’t make any sense.


    “She’s a darling. She nursed me back to health. I told her to keep her ears open at the hospital. I


    wanted to know everything concerning you. When she found out that you were going into therapy, we


    moved things around and she was assigned to you. I had to have sights on you until I was strong


    enough to take you back”


    Doesn’t Alice have any dignity? How could she tolerate a man who was using her to get another


    woman. A woman she knows he raped?


    “You have a mate Daniel. Alice is your mate” I tell him through clenched teeth.


    He shrugs his shoulders as if he isn’t concerned by that at all.


    “Alice understands that she is nothing but a ceholder. Sure, she has scratched my itch a few times


    after all I couldn’t stay celibate for five whole years, but she always knew she wasn’t the one I wanted”


    I see her face fall. Despite trying to stay strong, I know that those words hurt her. Daniel was a bastard.


    I don''t understand why Alice can’t see that.


    “I’m already taken, I don’t know if Alice filled you in on that”


    “Oh, I know that but she also told me that the moment I marked you, his mark will disappear and so will


    your bond to him”


    Iugh at that. “You can’t mark me, Daniel…you’re not a werewolf”


    “That’s where you’re wrong” he says as his voice gets deeper and deeper until it’s nothing but a growl.


    Right before my eyes, his green orbs turn red and ck fur starts to sprout from his skin. A minuteter


    the red-eyed wolf is standing before me. It’s hideous scent filling my nose.


    I look at himpletely shocked. This has been a day of nothing but revtions. Shocking revtions


    at that. I couldn’t believe that Daniel was the wolf that Sebastian has been looking for.


    “Impossible” I murmur, unable to look away from him.


    He changes back and just like his face, half of his body is burned. Alice hands him some clothes and


    he puts them on.


    “Nothing is impossible, my love” he smiles, making me wince at his choice of words.


    I wasn’t his love and I didn’t n on being.


    “You see, all those DNA samples I took from you I was actually experimenting on myself. At first


    nothing happened but I continued on, trying to bond my human DNA with yours.


    It wasn’t till the final year right before Iris was born that I finally aplished what I sort out to do. It


    was victorious. I didn’t tell the others. This was strictly my project. I wanted to be with you and to do


    that I needed to be like you.


    At first nothing happened. I couldn’t shift or anything like that and I thought it was a burst until about a


    year ago when I got so angry when I learned you’d be sleeping with that bastard that I shifted.


    I understood right then that the reason why I survived the fire and attack was because of your wolf


    DNA”


    I was numb. The fact that my DNA created the monster that has been killing mercilessly nearly


    destroyed me. This was all my fucking fault. All of it.


    I let out a deep breath. “There’s something I never understood, how did you know about wolves and


    why go after the other ones?”


    “When I was eleven I witnessed my parents being killed by wolves. Those wolves then transformed into


    humans. I tried telling the police but they choked it up to PTSD and a wild imagination. After all,


    werewolves weren’t real. It got worse and I was sent to a psychiatric facility.


    I didn’t get out until I was sixteen. They tried convincing me that werewolves didn’t exist but I knew


    what I saw. You kind knows how to hide in in sight, I’ll give you that. I thought all hope was lost until I


    saw you shifting in the forest. When I caught you it started as a means to get vengeance but let’s just


    say that things changed”


    Raya was right. It was my selfishness that led to Daniel discovering about us. If I hadn’t insisted on


    running instead of just driving then he wouldn’t have the proof he needed of our existence. My face


    turns to Alice. She was just standing there like a statue. She behaved like Daniel was her master or


    something.


    I was about to say something when we heard howls, followed by amotion. I sigh in relief. Help was

    here. Alice looked panicked while Daniel looked unbothered.


    “You still haven’t answered me about the other wolves and if you wanted me with you, then why did you


    attack me that night?”


    He shrugs his shoulders. “It was fun and I liked the fear I evoked in them once they realized who I was


    and as for you, I wanted you to feel the fear I felt when I didn’t know if I would survive or not…and just


    like the others it was fun unsettling you with the pictures and notes. Alice found something that


    concealed our scents so it was easy to sneak and out...You”


    He never gets to finish because the door bursts open and Kai barges in. His eyes are wild and death


    ys behind them. Daniel quickly transforms and attacks. I struggle to get out of the chain but it’s of no


    use. They continue fighting. Daniel manages to w Kai but it isn’t deep.


    A minuteter, Daniel’s howl of pain fills the room. Kai had bitten off a big chunk of his belly and now


    his intestines were spilling over. He transforms back to human. Holding his stomach where a huge hole


    He grabs the other man by the neck and lifts him off the ground.


    “Did you really think you could kidnap my mate and get away with it?” he asks as his left hand punches


    through his chest.


    Daniel gasps in shock then winces when I assume Darren squeezes his heart. Killing the other wolves


    had made him cocky. He didn’t realize that killing an already broken and scared wolf was easy. Killing


    an Alpha was a whole different case.


    Darren begins to pull his hand out and Daniel begins to sputter and cough blood.


    “If I can’t have her then neither can you” he says and gives Alice a sideway nce right before a


    needle pierces my skin.


    My insides begin to melt and my vision begins to fade. I watch as Darren rips out Daniel’s heart before


    letting go of his body. He turns and his face turns ashen when he sees me. He rushes to me pushing


    Alice aside.


    “No! No! No” he keeps whispering while he breaks the chain.


    I fall limply but he catches me before I can hit the ground.


    “Mayra, baby…hold on please. Keep your eyes on me” he begs but I had no strength to hold on.


    I know what was happening. Alice had injected me with silver and it was killing me. It was spreading


    fast and I knew there was no chance of getting me to a hospital in time.


    “I-I love you” I stammer the words. Blood filling my throat and mouth making it difficult to speak.


    “Please ta-take care o-of Iris for me. I l-love both of y-you so much”


    He holds me close to his chest. Begging me to stay with him but this time I didn’t have a choice. It


    wasn’t up to me.


    Darkness soon begins beckoning me and thest thing I see before everything fades is Darren’s


    heartbroken face.
