Chapter 12 : Plaything

*Zed’s POV*

I stared at Beth’s unconscious form. Was she okay?

The monster inside me had pushed her away, causing her to fall and hit her head. How hard had she hit her head? What if I had killed her? What the fuck was I going to do?

While she lay there, I struggled against the iron chains I had put on myself to protect her. Suddenly, Beth started to stir. She blinked a few times. I watched as she awoke and sat up. Immediately, I noticed that her demeanor was completely different. She was calm, and she wasn’t scared of the vampire before her, the one who had pushed her. She got to her feet.

I continued to pound the wall. The beast inside me wanted out. It wanted me to spill blood. To harm anyone and everyone, to completely take me over and be in control. Beth approached me and took my hand, pulling it into her chest. I felt my ears heat up, no doubt turning red. What was this woman doing? Did she want to die?
