Chapter 11

"I'd love to see you try Alexa" Lucian chuckled as he peeled himself from the wall. "You don't even remember who you are. How can you possibly save Orion or anyone else? They're all going to die and you're going to watch every single thing. Then, you'll belong to me. Oh the things I'd do to you".

"It's me you want. Why kill him? Just bring him back and I'll do whatever you want. I'll even give my soul to those things but just bring him back" I cried.

He's the only person apart from my mum who professed his love for me, who protected me. I wish I could recall whatever the hell they're talking about so I could understand what's happening. All I want is to get my mum back and be with Orion. Why can't good things ever happen to me? First my dad died, we became shit broke and when I finally learn to start loving someone apart from myself and my mum, life goes ahead and takes him from me.

"So now you've resorted to begging" Rowana teased. I didn't care.

"Please, just bring him back. I'll do anything".

"He's still alive. I told you earlier today. He was created from dark magic. A stake to the heart won't kill him. It's just like, say, putting him in a deep slumber. He'll only wake up when the stake is removed" Rowana explained.

"He's such a nuisance. He'll stop the ritual before it even starts" Lucian said as he wiped blood from his forehead.

Ritual? I shook my head. That wasn't what I was concerned about right now.

"I don't believe you. He's losing lots of blood".

"He won't die you dimwit. Besides, we have orders to keep him alive. They just didn't say in what shape". He smirked and I so badly wanted to slap it off his face.

"You however, are very precious to them for some reason so you get to stay in a comfortable room until it's time" Rowana said and with a snap of her fingers, two vampires appeared on either side of me.

"No. I'm not leaving Orion alone. Not with you sadistic fuckers" I spat. "I'll stay here with him until it's time for whatever you block heads have planned".

Rowana sighed. "Take her underground".

Two other Vampires appeared and began to drag Orion's body away.

"Stop! Take me with you then. I'll go wherever he goes!" I managed to stand up using my knees for support but I was held back before I could follow them.

No. I can't leave him alone. Who knows what they'll do to him.

"Let me go! Please!"

Rowan and Lucian kept smiling as I watched them take Orion away. It felt like my heart was shattered into a million pieces.

Why? Why is life so cruel?

Warning: Disturbing scene ahead. Almost Rape.

I was taken to a better looking room. Well, it was quite small and the bed looked like a thousand cats had a fight on it but it didn't stink that much. They untied me and left, locking the door right after. My arms were extremely sore and my head hurt. All I could think about was Orion. Where did they take him? What condition is he in? What are they currently doing to him?

I began to pace up and down the room. I'm so fucking useless. I can't even help him and I don't know where Chief Garrison, Ulrick and Maeve are. I don't fucking know what they expect me to remember and shit I don't fucking know what to do.

I sunk to the floor beside the bed, pulled my knees to my chest and wrapped my arms around my legs. Tears spilled down my cheeks as I was so frustrated. I recalled the dreams I've had. The emotions, the familiarity of every situation, how good it felt to be with him. How it felt just right.

How can I feel so deeply for someone I met just a few days ago? How can he love me? Why am I useless? Is this how I'm gonna let him die? Is this how I'm gonna sit here crying while he's there with those maniacs?

No. No way. I have to do something.

I wiped my tears and stood up with a new found confidence. I have no idea what I'm going to do but I'll do whatever it takes to help him.

A loud agonizing scream suddenly rang out, sending chills through my body. I paled.

Is that... is that Orion?

Another gut wrenching scream pierced the air and I rushed to the door, twisting the knob but to no avail.

"Open the door!" I yelled as I banged it as hard as I could. "What are you doing to him! Open the goddamn door!".

The screams went on as I banged harder and harder even still. I threw everything I could find at the door. What the hell are they doing? Didn't they say they need him alive? Oh my God.

"Open the door please!"

They ignored me and with every scream he let out, I felt like my heart was being stabbed repeatedly. My voice went hoarse with all the screaming I did and my eyes felt heavy.

After what seemed like hours, he stopped screaming but I couldn't stop crying. Why? What could cause him to scream so much? What kind of pain were they inflicting on him? I swear I'll kill Rowan and Lucian. I'll kill them in the worst way possible.

I heard the door click then swing open. In walked Lucian, wearing his signature creepy smirk.

"What are you doing to him?" I asked, wiping away my tears.

He scoffed. "Me? I have no business with your man. I only have business with you. Why don't we pick up where we left off?"

*********(A/N if you're not comfortable reading this, please skip it)*********

I tensed. No fucking way. He turned around and locked the door. I frantically gazed around the room to see if there's anything I could use as a weapon. My eyes landed on a long wooden stick lying by the window.

I lunged for it but before I could grab it, I felt fingers wrap around my throat then slam me on the floor. Fuck how could I forget how fast he is. I kicked and struggled to get away but his hold just tightened and it was getting hard for me to breathe.

"Stop resisting Alexa. It'll only get more painful" he snarled. His face was just a few inches away from mine. The cold glint in his eyes sent shivers down my spine. How did I ever think this guy was good looking!

He bent low to kiss me but I stopped him by smacking him hard on the face. Fuck. Pain shot through my palm and I groaned. Shit I also forgot how strong he was. I raised my knee, aiming for his crotch but he quickly used his legs to block mine, fully putting all of his weight on me. I couldn't move an inch. He released my neck but then grabbed my hands and pinned them over my head with just one of his. The other went straight into my pants, fingers harshly rubbing against me. I groaned in pain. My eyes stung, fresh tears pooling in them. He roughly pushed his fingers into me. The friction between his dry fingers and my dry flesh brought immense pain and it felt like my lower part was set on fire.

"Why aren't you responding?" He growled, pressing his thumb on the clit, hard. I cried out in pain, squeezing my eyes shut.

"You should be getting wet by now. Feel how hard I am for you". He thrusted his hips over mine, making me feel his erection. I was in too much pain to even register the length or girth of it. I just wanted to go to Orion.

"Get wet for me goddamn it!". He smacked me across the face, Fuck it hurt. It hurt so much and I couldn't move. His body felt like a huge stone and it was crushing me. He kept thrusting his fingers into me, slapping and poking me in places that had me screaming in pain. I just wanted it to end but Lucian had other plans in mind.

He thrust his tongue down my throat, kissing me like he was in desperate need of air and I was oxygen. His tongue was awfully long and he tasted like raw fish. It was disgusting.

I bit his tongue as hard as I could, even drawing blood but he wasn't fazed. In fact he even moaned. The taste of blood coupled with his saliva made me nauseous. What kind of psycho is this!

Oh God, somebody... anybody...please help.
