Chapter 2

Marie

———————————————-

I stare at her with wide eyes, "Are you crazy!? You're going to get us both killed!!"

She sighs, "I'm not going to let Aaron do what he wants with you, It's not okay and you know it. Do you really want to stay here and lead a pack with him against your will?"

I shake my head immediately, "Absolutely not."

"That's what I thought, There's going to be a pack hunt tomorrow night, the Alpha always leads the pack for the first kill, after that its a blood bath for the rest of the night. The guards will be switching off so they can join in, one of my good friends will be on duty towards the beginning. We can sneak you out then."

I shake my head, "But won't I get spotted? Almost every wolf will be out in the woods hunting, they will smell me a mile away."

She pulls something out of her pocket, it was a small bottle with a blue liquid in it.

"This is a tonic I made earlier, this will conceal your scent and allow you to blend in with the other wolves long enough for you to cross the border into another territory. Every pack will be out during the hunt so you have to be extremely careful going into other territories, find neutral area fast and hide until the Blood moon is over."

"Tomorrow is the blood moon?!" My breath comes out in pants as I start to panic.

"Yes.. Marie are you okay?" She reaches out to me and I growl and move to the other side of the cell.

"Marie-."

"You need to leave. Now." I say trying to keep my breathing under control.

"I don't understand Marie what's wrong?" She asks, looking very concerned.

"Karly there's something about me you don't know. I have another wolf, He's dangerous and wild and not under control. I only use him if I absolutely have no other choice, unless it's the night of the Blood Moon. He breaks free and gains control and goes on a killing spree. I will not make it out of this pack without killing everything in my path. Karly I can't control him, I'm not conscious when he breaks through. All I know is that every time I wake up, I'm covered in the blood of everything I've killed."

Karly looks at me for a second before speaking, "We won't have to worry about that. I can give you another dose of the T-serum. You'll be human the whole time and I can sneak you out still."

I shake my head, "You don't understand, That serum won't work. He's powerful and can withstand just about every poison or toxin or serum you have. Silver barely does any damage to him.. unless.. unless I'm injected with it.."

I look up with a hopeful look in my eye, "Do you have access to the liquid silver used on prisoners?"

She looks at me like I'm crazy, "Marie that will kill any wolf injected with it! That's only used for pack mates who've committed treason, if the Alpha chooses to spare his own punishment."

I smile, "Not him, He can handle it, but it will weaken him enough for me to take control, Long enough for me to get out of her and in another territory before he recovers."

She hesitates, "Come on Karly it's our only shot!" I plead.

She sighs, "Okay I will see what I can do, How much of it do you need?"

I think about it for a second, "Two syringes should be enough, One to start off with about an hour before I try to escape and then again If I feel myself slipping. It will do a lot of damage if I'm not careful, but it's my only option."

She gives me a sad look, "Okay, I will try and get both. Marie.. Can I ask you a question?"

I sit back down in front of her and nod, "Yeah, What's up?"

"Why are your eyes two different colors?"

I stiffen and look away, trying to keep my eyes on anything but hers. "Back in my old pack, I was pushed into a corner by the beta's son Marcus, He didn't know who I was because I was kept a secret from the whole pack. I just wanted to feel the Blood Moon with the rest of the pack.. Just once. He wen't after me almost killing me, until Levi snapped. When I woke back up, I was naked and covered in Marcus' blood.. He was laying dead beside me. When the rest of the pack found me I was crying and my right eye had turned red."

She places her hand on my face, I look up at her and see tears pouring down her face. "You've been through so much, You were given something you never asked for and Have had to live with it your entire life. We will get you out of here, I promise. Do not tell Aaron or show him anything having to do with Levi, If he finds out, you will not leave this place. Ever."

I nod, She gets up slowly and grabs her stuff, "I need to get going, I'll have everything to you tomorrow morning, and I'll come check on you a couple hours before the Moon."

I breath in and then out, nodding my head. I watch her close the metal door and lock it behind her. I rest my back up against the stone wall, trying to figure out how the hell I'm going to manage to sneak off the territory while it's crawling with hungry wolves ready to kill. I listen for any sounds around my cell and hear a few screams, I toon out and decide that it wasn't a good idea to keep listening. A jingle of keys has me perked up again and I turn towards the door expecting it to be Karly again but what walks through the door has me scowling.

"Now what did I do to deserve such a sour face?" He chuckles.

I growl and press myself farther against the wall. "What do you want?"

He smirks, "I want you- where did you get those lovely clothes of yours?"

He comes closer to me reaching out to take my braid in his hand, I watch as he lets it fall out of his hand, "My I guess that little brat has been helping my mate look nicer for me."

I hold back bile threatening to come up from my throat, "I am NOT your mate."

His eyes flash a bright red in warning, "Careful flower, you might just piss me off. You wouldn't want to do that before our coronation?"

I blanch and fly forward hitting his forward with mine, he grabs his head stepping back, "Coronation?! You're going to make me your mate against my will?!!" I scream at him.

I go to slap him but he catches my wrist tight, "You best watch your tongue Marie, or I'll rip it from your pretty little mouth."

I growl and he slaps me across the face, I fall on my knees holding my cheek, my other wrist still in his grasp. He laughs and drops my arm, I pull it towards my chest, crawling to the wall. He follows my movements until I'm backed into a corner.

He gets really close to my face, "You are mine flower, and you will not be leaving this place."

Tears drip down my cheeks, he laughs again and walks out of the cell slamming and locking the door behind him. I sob into my knees, I have to get out of here or I'll end up a slave to that bastard for the rest of my life.

We will get out of here Shiver

I know we will, we will end up dead if we don't.

My body shakes, terrified of what would happen to us if we couldn't escape..

Next morning..

I pace back and forth in my cell, certain that I would have walked a ravine into the floor. I listen into the halls, still no sign of Karly..

Arrête she will be here soon.

Don't tell me to stop, I have a right to be worried.

Shiver rolls her eyes in my head, I growl softly and continue walking back and forth. I perk up when I hear the sound of footsteps coming down the hall. They walk past my cell and I sigh.

Still no sign of her.

Would you quite it Marie! She said she would be here in the morning with the supplies! We just have to be patient.

I sigh and walk over to my bed, I collapse onto the rough bed and stare at the empty cement ceiling. It stained with water damage and corrosion. I lift my head to look at the rest of the cell, pretty much a small cement room with no windows and a metal door. The only light coming from a single lightbulb in the middle of the room. There's a toilet of course, but there's no way I'm touching that.

My stomach growls, "Gezz I wonder how long he's going to keep me down here without feeding me.." I mutter aloud.

Just then the door to my cell opens, and in wafts the scent of bacon and eggs. My mouth waters when I see Karly walk in with a plate of food.

"Someone looks hungry," She laughs, handing me the plate. "Dig in."

I take the plate and fork, shoving as much as I could into my mouth. I groan in bliss, "Thank you, I thought for sure I was going to starve."

She laughs, "No I wouldn't let that happen. I brought everything we need for tonight." She holds out a small sack and I grab it hiding it under my blanket.

"Everything is set, I will knock on the cell three times an hour before we need to go, that will be your cue to inject the liquid silver into your system. After that down the whole bottle I showed you yesterday to hide your scent."

I nod, "And your sure this will work? Aaron scenes are going to be extremely heightened."

She grabs my hand with a soft smile, "Marie, I will deal with my mate, You need to focus on keeping control of Levi and getting the hell out of here."

I bristle at her tone, she always acted so proper and adult like, but this new tone made her sound just like me. I smile at her, "Alright damn, I understand."

She laughs, "Good, now finish eating I've got some things to take care of in the nursery, I'll be back to knock when its time."

I breathe in and out, slowly nodding at her as she takes my empty plate and walks out of my cell. I hear her making her way down the hallway before I tune out.

We've got this Marie

Yeah.. we got this..

I stare at the closed door, terrified.
