Inside the cell I

Chapter 17

Kimberly's POV:

"What's this? Why is it getting hot?" I shout while holding his hands to save him.

"God damn! Stupid girl. I told you, this is a place where you cannot move behind once you get inside it. Because of you I stumbled and that made this place triggered," he shouts at me.

Archie! This man!! He is so much worse. How can he blame me for the things that I didn't even know about? This silly guy!

"So, now what is going to happen?" I ask him.

"It will calm down in the next few minutes but I don't know how long it is going to take. The moment it stops, the first layer of your skin will be ripped off. God damn! I can't believe that I am going to get my skin ripped off because of you. I hate you Kimberly, girl," he shouts at me.

"Like I like you so much. Trust me, I hate you more than you hate me. I didn't tell you to turn back to me for god's sake. It was you who stopped and stumbled on your own. How can a guy be so petty that he would blame his mistakes on others?2 I shout at him.

This guy is so cheap. I am aware that we don't get along together but this guy would turn out to be worse makes me feel angrier than ever.

Shit guy!!!

"Did you call me petty?" he shouts.

"Yes, I did cause you are petty okay? If you are fine by now, can you please leave my hands? It's hurting and this is getting warmer too," I say.

"Who told, I am holding your hands?" he shouts like a stubborn child.

I lift our hands and show it to him. His hands are shaking for god's sake.

"Oh! I was just…"

Blah blah… his lies.

"You're just a coward mister. That's all," I say.

"Did you just call me a coward?" he roars.

"Yes, I did." I fold my hands against my chest. My wolf is as furious as I am right now. She hates Archie as much as I do.

"Cause you are a coward, stupid!" My wolf growls from inside. But that's the main issue right now. The main issue right now is the heat that is leveling up with every minute. I don't know how long this heat is going to be.

"Hey! Something is shining inside you." My wolf shouts all of a sudden.

"What? Shining? Is that a stone?" I ask her.

"It might be. It's brighter than the diamond and making me blind for god's sake," she says in an irritated voice.

I don't understand. What is going on? What made it shine bright like that? Also, why the heat around me is being lowered?

"Hey! Do you still feel hot?" I ask Archie.

"Yeah! Aren't you feeling it? It is getting horrible," he shouts back at me.

"Don't tell him, you're getting cold. Let him burn into ashes," my wolf whispers. I laugh hearing her like that.

"Do you think so? Should we let him burn into ashes?" I talk in my mind.

"Yes," she says confidently.

"What made you laugh silly girl? Aren't you hot?" he shouts.

"Hot? Not a little bit," I answer to him.

"Don't joke," he says as he holds my hands to check but within some seconds he lifts his eyes towards me and gives me a weird look.

"Who the fuck are you?" He opens his mouth like his jaws are going to be dropped down on the floor.

"You ok?" I ask him.

"Holy shit. I am seriously not feeling well now. I was hot before but I was normal. I am getting back to my normal temperature but why do I feel abnormal no?" he questions himself.

"I don't know. Maybe, you're so dumb. That is why you're feeling like that," I say.

"No! This is serious! Something is wrong with you. What are you?" he sees me with so much of queries in his eyes.

I am sure he has a lot of questions right now. To be honest, I have questions about myself too. Why did this happen suddenly? How? What made it trigger and get into action?

I have more questions than you silly guy. But like you, I don't have answers. I am searching for the answers more than you are searching for the faults in me.

"I don't know what you are talking about. Don't you think this all has stopped by now?" I ask him.

"Yeah! You're right. Maybe everything has stopped by now," he responds.

"So, will you please leave my hands for now? It was just your imagination you see. Nothing is wrong with me," I say as I try to shake his hands away from mine but he doesn't let it go at all.

"Hey! It's gone now. Let her go you asshole," My wolf purrs in anger inside me. I am glad that he cannot hear her or else she is going to make everything worse.

"Uhhmm… I didn't hold it because I was scared. I held it just because…," he stops and doesn't speak.

"Because what?" I ask.

"Nothing… Hurry up. Or else Alpha will kill both of us and we will both die here. You are destined to be punished and killed by him but I am not. I don't want to die in his hands. So, move faster or else there might be another series of burning heat and this time it might get fierce," he says as he leaves my hands doubtedly. He might be scared that it is still hot and he might get burned if he lets me go.

"Follow me!" he says. I follow him without saying any words.

"This place is weird. And the thing inside you is weirder. Why did it shine like that all of a sudden. It was cold too," my wolf says.

"I don't know but it happened definitely because it wanted to save me. I am sure it didn't want me to get hurt," I say in my mind.

"It didn't help when you were in danger before? Did it? Then why now? You were in much more danger before than you are now, aren't you?" she asks.

She is logical. Actually, whatever she is saying is truth. Why now?

"Here, get inside," Archie stops all of a sudden. Slowly, the place starts to get lighted. Not a bright light but the dim light like the ones in the horror movies. Like the old, old prison where the worst of the worst souls are locked in there.

He opens the door and signals me to enter inside it. I walk through it without any word. He locks the door once I get inside the cell.

I breath out heavily as I look around the place. This place just gives me so much of chills. I cannot see anything in here but still I feel like something is around me. Something worse, something evil, something that wants to hurt and wants to take my life.

"Girl! This place is horrible. I don't know why did that girl Ashlyn designed something worse like this? For what reason!

I walk a little ahead to touch the bars of the cell and call Archie one last time.

"He..!" but before I can say anything to him, I get such a bad flow of current into my body. That shock almost took out the life inside me. I get dumped at the end of the cell.

That fucking hurts like hell. I shout in pain and agony as I am thrown in there roughly and hardly.

"Hey! Be careful! Don't touch those bars. Stay away from them," Archie walks towards me with his loud voice.

Wait!

I find difference in his voice. He sounds completely different than he was before. I knew he was rude before but now, I feel like he isn't rude at all. I know he shouted but there is concern in his voice rather than a mere shout.

"Do you see him? What's wrong with him?" my wolf asks. I signal her saying I don't know about it.

"Hey! It's a complete hell in there. Just hang on for few days. I will pray that you turn out to be innocent," he says those words before he walks away.

"That man! Is he insane? Has he gone nuts?" My wolf gets confused and so do I.
