*Furya POV*

I hung my head as I heard them bringing in yet another mutant. Why? Why all of the tests, the experiments, the violence? Why did I have to get caught...I choked back a sob. And the biggest why of all...why did he leave me here? The one I thought truly loved me. I was so naive. The manacles that encircled my wrists clattered as I shifted. My arms hurt so much from being in this position, held above my head. The cover over my eyes itched.

I heard footsteps outside of my cage. Weird...my cage was a bit separated from the rest. Who could be here, way before my feeding? The door opened, and I tried to scoot back, but the chains wouldn't let me. "Who's there?" I hated how weak and scared I sounded.

A rough hand touched my face. I recognized it instantly. Victor. "My little kitten." He always called me kitten, saying I was just as sweet as one. A tear rolled down my cheek. "I'm gonna get you outta here, sweetheart. Soon. I have a deal with Stryker." His deep voice, so gentle and soothing, cut me to the bone.

"But...why did you leave me here in the first place?" I sobbed out, now trying to get as close to him as possible. His huge body encased mine in a hug. I felt so small and fragile in his grasp, but safe and secure.

"I couldn't getcha out of here without you getting hurt. There are too many guards. One of them could've shot you." He took off the eyecovers. The sight of his face, so close to mine, was too much to bear. His grey eyes stared deep into mine as he stroked my cheek softly.

"Victor..." I leaned my face into his palm. He kissed my forehead.

"I'll be back to visit. Be strong, kitten. I'll be back." He put the covers back on, and left. I instantly missed his body heat, and his strange, intoxicating scent.

And he left me with more worries...like, what deal did he have with Stryker to get me out? I sat down cross-legged and leaned my head to the side, trying to get comfortable. As I thought of him, my thoughts slipped easily into dreams where we could be together, no one to separate us.


So. O.O I wrote this ages ago, but I've been told that it's good, so I decided to post it on here as my first story. :) Victor will be a bit OOC. I have warned you. Uhm, if you see any spelling/grammar mistakes I'm sorry, and I would greatly appreciate it if you would point them out to me. :) Thank you very much for reading!
