Chapter 7

My eyelids shook severally as I struggled to open my eyes. The room swirled around for some seconds until I finally retained my sight and was shocked with the human figure at my front—Dylan Woodluck.

He was seated at my front with a tray of food in his hands. Despite the amazing aroma that emanated from the food, I felt dizzy and irritated as hell. The only way for me not vomiting was if a miracle occurred, and if you know anything about me, it is the fact that things like miracles and luck were never on my side.

In other words....I vomited.

He placed his hands on my back and rubbed it gently. "You're alright, okay."

"Get off me!"I said, shrugging his hands off me.

He retreated, picked the chair which he had been sitting on and moved it closer to me. He reached out for the tray and sat down, placing the tray of food on his lap. "How are you feeling?"He said with his nice soothing voice.

"Where the hell am I?"I asked, ignoring his question.

"Hillary, you are somewhere safe."

I scoffed. "Somewhere safe? And my home is what, exactly?"

"Dangerous."He said.

"You kidnapped me and now you are telling me that my home is dangerous."

"I know that abducting you wasn't the best way to bring you here and for that I'm truly sorry...but you and I know that your home is bad for you, with those crazy people as your..."

"Don't you dare say such things about my parents...I mean my mum and Steve Harrows."

"You see, you can't even call them parents..."

"You know nothing about me, Dylan."I said.

"Yea, you're right, but what I do know about you is that you're very stubborn, which is both good and bad, and the bad side of your stubbornness is what's making you unable to accept that those people are deranged and unsuitable to live amongst normal people, especially not you"He said.

"Then I guess they better live with you, since you're as crazy as they are."I said angrily. I hated it when anyone talked about my family. Although I detested my mum and Steve, I never showed it outside. It was meant to be something I'd hide forever, because it was a highly disturbing matter for me, so I always kept it private. And now, I felt like Dylan was invading my privacy...I felt embarrassed.

"I'm sorry,"he said. "But when I found out about the abuse, I became annoyed and I just couldn't control my feelings."

"Why do you care if I get hurt or not? It's none of your business."

"You're my mate, Hillary...you mean everything to me!"

Those words slammed my heart and immediately flushed all my anger away. Did he really mean that? Or was he trying to get me to trust him? Either way, it still made my heart jump in excitement.

"I need you to trust me, Hillary."

I scoffed. "If you really need me to trust you then I guess you had better quit drugging and abducting me, and then maybe someday...you could 'earn' my trust."I said, laying emphasis on the word 'earn'.

"Once again, I'm sorry for drugging you, but I needed to bring you here to meet my father... the alpha of my pack."

"Why?"I asked curiously.

"He's sick and he really wants to see you."

"I still don't get it. Why me?"

"Because, you are my mate....and if my father doesn't make it....I'll be made the next alpha and you'd be my Luna."

I managed to laugh despite my nervousness. "You're nuts. You really need help, Dylan...and I can help you, just let me go and I could probably get you like four psychiatrists and six shrinks to help you."

"I'm not insane and you know that, Hillary."

"All I know is that you are abducting me, Dylan and if you don't let me go now, the police will hunt you down, arrest you, you'd be imprisoned and you'd spend a whole lot of years in prison."

"You aren't forced to stay here, Hillary."

"Okay, then I think it's best for me to.leave, right?"

"Hillary, you're not a prisoner here."He said.

"Then let me go!!!"

"I will, but first...you have to meet my father...the alpha."

I calmed myself down by taking in three deep breaths. "OK, but you'd have to promise me that immediately I see your father, you'd free me."

He shot me a sharp glance and said. "Sure thing, Hillary...I promise."

He stood up, dropped the tray, and began making his way out of the room. "Come along, Hillary, this house is very enormous and you could get lost."

It was when I began rising up that I noticed the fact that I had vomited on the floor and I felt really really filthy. "Hold on, Dylan."

"What's wrong?"He said turning around. "Oh...is it the...don't worry I'll have someone clean it up."

"Also, I'll have to clean up as I feel like a trash can right now."

"Okay... the bathroom is that way."he said pointing to another door in the room. "I would have someone drop you some new clothes before you're done."

"Okay."

"I'll be waiting downstairs."He said as he opened the door and closed it.

I exhaled and hurried into the bathroom. I rinsed my mouth thoroughly and after I took off my clothes and hopped into the bathtub.

I dipped my head into the water for a few seconds, it was my method of getting rid of unnecessary thoughts.

When I raised myself back up, I was startled by someone standing by the door. I swiftly used my palms to rub off the soapy water off my face to get a better look at the person.

I took a sigh of relief when I saw who it was. "Ava, you scared the hell out of me."

She looked at me with fury and extreme annoyance. Her face was red and puffy, like she had been crying for a very long time. The usual spark in her beautiful ocean blue eyes was gone and her eyes looked duller and she had a growing eye bag under her eyes, like she hadn't slept for some days and had spent her sleeping hours weeping. Her blonde curly hair was rough and uncombed. Her lips were quivering and she had a look of hate on her face.

I rested back a little bit. "What's wrong, Ava?"

"Everything. Every single thing, Hillary."She said as she moved into the bathroom and shut the door behind her.

I became really scared. I hoped she hadn't found out that I mentioned her tattoo to Dylan. "Ava...I swear I didn't tell him..."

She drew closer to me and squatted beside me. She had a maniacal smile on her face. She gently touched and massaged my hair and scalp. "You know they weren't lying, Janette and Clarissa weren't lying at all...your hair is really really pretty, Hillary."

I began to tremble.

"But not only that, Hillary. They were right about everything...they saw the real you hidden beneath all that friendly and fake smile of yours."She sniffed as a tear rolled down her puffy cheek. She grabbed my hair gently and used her fingers to massage my scalp. "They warned me but I didn't listen. I thought they were lying, I thought you were just a victim of a bully and nothing else. I really liked you..., you know? I wanted to be your friend, Hillary. And I don't usually make friends. But you fooled me, Hillary."

My body trembled as her finger left cold shivers as they massaged my scalp. I felt like crying but I was too scared to do anything but plead. "What are you talking about? I don't understand. Whatever it is ...I'm sorry."

"No you are not sorry, Hillary."She said as her fingers gripped my hair with more force. "If you are sorry, then why are you here?"

"Here? I never meant to come here. Dylan abducted me and brought me here."I said with my voice quivering.

"Yea, I'm fully aware of that...if only you hadn't seduced and bewitched him into loving you, instead of me, who truly loves him."She gripped my hair with so much force, which made me yelp in pain. I tried to wriggle out of her grip, but it didn't work, instead it made it worse. It was almost like she wanted to pull my hair out of my head. The pain became more excruciating and when I yelled out for help, she quickly covered my mouth and tied my mouth with her muffler which she had around her neck. And again, continued with the torture.

I knew that in a few minutes, I would have begun to bleed from my scalp, so I used my teeth to reach out to her neck. She tried pushing me away, but I was lucky and fast enough to get to her wrist. I took a deep bite into her wrist until I felt hot blood ooze out of her skin and into my mouth. I quickly withdrew and spat out the blood.

Ava was whimpering and moaning as she held her wrist.

I almost jumped out of my skin when I saw the damage I had done to her. She was bleeding badly and her wrist looked like they were hanging and like they might fall off soon.

But how? My teeth couldn't have done so much damage.

I reached out to my teeth and was surprised when I touched my canines. They were long, sharp and pointed. I screamed in fear of my own self.

Despite her pain, Ava wasn't done with me yet, she abandoned her left hand which was useless at that moment and grabbed my hair with her right hand. She yanked my head downwards into the tub and held me down.

She was going to drown me. I was sure of it. I shook and used all my strength but she was way stronger than I was.

After a while, I gave up. I surrendered to her torturing hands and choked on the water.

But before I drew in my last breath, her grip on me was released and my head was pulled out from the tub.

I vomited the water out of my mouth and coughed continuously. My eyes were red and wide open.

Dylan was pulling Ava who was yelling and crying at the same time, away from me and out of the room. I heard other voices which I guess assisted in escorting her out.

I watched the whole drama unfold until Dylan came back. "Are you alright?"he asked.

"Yes. I'm fine now."I rested back into the tub to conceal my body from his flaring eyes.

He watched me for a while and then handed me a towel.

I grabbed it from him. I expected him to walk out but he didn't, his eyes were still all over me. "Would you excuse me, Dylan."

"No, I won't."he said bluntly.

"What!!"

"The last time I excused you, you were almost killed. I'm not taking my eyes off you."

I scoffed. "This is ridiculous. There's no way I'm getting out of here with you staring at me."

"What's the issue with me staring at you? You're my mate."He asked.

"The issue is that I love my privacy and lately it seems like you've been invading it. So pleeeaaase excuse me."

He turned around. "Well, this is all the privacy you're getting."

I rose from the tub and quickly wrapped the towel around me. My heart skipped a beat as my eyes met his curious blue eyes staring at me.
