The Werewolf's Chapter 58: See things from my eyes and you will understand

Chapter 58: See things from my eyes and you will understand.

Beau.

Pain and anger.

For weeks, I am kept in the dark.

No food.

No water.

No Alanis.

My eyes haven’t been able to stay open for longer than five minutes. I have been too weak to struggle, to attempt to find an escape from this. I don’t have a sense of ti, I sleep—or rather, I pass out and then wake up. It is a cycle. I haven’t seen anyone since I was kept here.

Not a single person.

I don’t know what he wants from , if he wanted to kill , he would’ve done it already. There must be a reason why I am here. Why he has kept

for so long. For the first ti since he brought

here, I feel Alanis. His heartbeat. I haven’t felt him since.

He is okay.

I try to sit up but I am too weak. My knees gave up the mont Cassius won. I don’t know what he did to ; he ntioned wolfsbane. I am surprised I am still alive right now if wolfsbane has sothing to do with it. It is a plant, that is poisonous to wolves, that is one of our weaknesses and sohow Cassius used it against . I should’ve known Cassius would’ve been prepared for . He knew I was going to co, the fact that we went in there blindly with the assumptions that he didn’t know I would show up was the first mistake.

I manage to open my eyes after God knows how long and I see my environnt. I am in so kind of dungeon. The room is dark, dusty and there is a musky sll that is nauseating. There is a window just above my head. It has a burglar-proof on it. The window is small, even if I had enough strength to break through it, I will never be able to pass through the spacing. I try to sit up again and this ti it is a success. I am hungry, weak and tired. I don’t know how long I have been here but it seems like a long ti with the way I am feeling.

I look at the door and it is tallic and cage-like. Cassius wanted to keep

in here. There is no room for an escape. I don’t even think I am strong enough right now to even attempt to escape. Accepting defeat, I sit back down on the cold hard floor and wait.

Wait for whatever is to co.

As long as I can feel Lanis, I will not give up. As long as he is still connected to

I know there is hope.

He is my one lifeline.

****************

I feel the cold water as it hits my face. My eyes open in a rush and I jolt up from the ground. I didn’t even know I had that much strength for that reaction. With my eyes open I see the person responsible for the cold water. A man—one of the n that ambushed Moe in the woods. His face is recognizable because of the life-size tattoo on his face of a skull with two crossbones.

"Get up," he orders even though I am already up.

i squint my eyes, the water is freezing. I have no warmth in my body so this makes

shiver from the coldness that he poured on . I feel it in my bones. This is supposed to be torture, Cassius wants

to feel pain, he wants to get

hurt.

It is working but I am stronger than he thinks. This won’t break

down, unless he decides to end my life, I will keep fighting. I stand up and my knees wobble as I try to stay up. The man laughs a hearty laugh, this is all fun and gas to him. The fact that he is watching another person in pain, is pure pleasure to this monster.

’’Not so strong are you,’’ he snickers.

I manage an eye roll and he goes over to the door like gate ’’I will remind you of this day when I have your head,’’ he stops as I utter those words and maybe it is not a good idea to be provoking him but I need so sort of power. I want him to see that I am not a pushover. He turns around and there is a smile on his face. Slowly, he walks over to

and stops just a foot away from .

’’You know I could kill you easily right now, so you might want to tone down on the attitude.’’

I laugh, at least in my head I laugh but what cos out of my mouth is a weak cackle. The energy I have left within

is being wasted interacting with this idiot. He reaches for my neck and his arms envelop

completely. I lose the remaining oxygen in my lungs as he squeezes even tighter.

’’Learn to shut the fuck up,’’ he advises.

I try to budge away from him but he is way stronger than

at this mont. It’s been a while; I should’ve regained my strength back but they keep injecting sothing into . Whatever they are feeding

is making

weaker. They plan on killing

slowly. That is what it seems like.

’’Stop right now Athan,’’ I hear a voice from behind him, I recognise the voice imdiately, it is Cassius.

Athan lets go of my neck quickly and I fall to my knees finally catching a breath. I clutch unto my chest as I try to steady my breathing. Before I know what is happening, Athan leaves the room and I am forced to be alone with Cassius. That stupid smug smile is still on his face. The enjoynt, the pleasure he must feel from winning all the ti.

’’Why haven’t you killed

already,’’ I ask him still on my knees.

’’You are the last one I intend to kill. You will watch your whole family die. You will feel the pain as I wipe out your whole pack.’’

He is scaring

and it is working. He took , kept

for God knows how long to do what exactly?

’’Your end is closer than you think,’’ I tell him.

He laughs ’’Once I wipe out your kind, I will rest.’’

’’We have done nothing to you. You are hurting innocent people that have nothing to do with your anger. Do you think you are so kind of hero?’’

’’You are all the sa. Werewolves, you think you are sohow different from us. You think we are murderous and you are not. I will show you sothing. I will show you why I am so angry.’’ he walks closer to

but I don’t cower. I stand up, so I can be face to face with him.

’’You will always be a monster, no matter what you show .’’

He reaches for my face and slowly he caresses my skin ’’I don’t like hurting people; I don’t like this but I have to. The world needs to be cleansed off your kind.’’

His fingers rub against my skin and I feel irritated from his touch. He closes his eyes, with the smile still on his face. His breath I steady, he doesn’t feel threatened standing so close to . To him, I am not intimidating. I cannot hurt him.

I grab his hand to stop him from touching

and he opens his eyes slowly ’’Get your hands off ,’’ there is a frown on my face.

’’Then how will I show you, how will you get into my head and understand why?’’

I don’t want to see anything. Nothing he shows

will excuse his wickedness. I want to push him away; I am not interested in whatever he wants to show

but I also know I have no choice in this. No matter I what I say, he will end up doing what he wants to do. I can’t fight him--I am not strong enough.

He reached for , and this ti I close my eyes to block the image of his face and the feelings of his touch. His hands are cold. His fingers move up from my cheek to my temple. My eyes remain closed as he works his way up until he is cupping my temple in his palm.

’’You will understand once you see.’’ as those words leave his lips, I feel the jolt. It feels like an electric shock. Suddenly it feels like my mind is travelling through a ti warp. The images are blurry. I watch as my mind moves in sync to the rhythm. I watch until it stops and when it does. I open my eyes and I am no longer in the dungeon.

Cassius is no longer holding .

I am in a place I don’t recognize. Standing in the middle of a busy road, in God knows where. People pass , but no one seems to be bothered with . It is a market square. There are fucking horses and carriages.

Sohow this doesn’t feel like my ti anymore.

What did he do to ?
