Slowly rising from the depths of the darkness, the feeling returning to my fingers and toes, I grunted, and tried to roll over to find I was restricted. I felt thick chains digging into my wrists, causing a burning sensation on my flesh as I flung my eyes open to find I was in a deserted basement tied to a chair, with my arms behind my back. So many thoughts scrambled themselves to the surface of my brain and in panic a thin film of perspiration began to form on my brow and upper lip. Fear was setting in and there was nothing I could do to stop it, no comforting words or thoughts, nothing reassuring came to mind. I shook rapidly, gasping out in pain as the metal dug deeper into my wrists. I noticed my ankles were tied too and blood coursed down my bare feet, as I struggled to get free.

"Help" I choked out, gritting my teeth at the pain in my ankles and wrists. The wounds were healing to only be ripped open again, every time I struggled.

"She's awake" I heard a familiar voice say above and that's when I remembered, Derek had kidnapped me.

A loud and fearsome growl escaped me. I looked at the ground disgusted as I heard a couple of footsteps walk down the basement steps.

Before Derek could even mutter a word I cussed heavily at him, the words burning on my tongue as I screamed them at him. He was taken aback, but soon regained his composure and flung to me an even worse set of curses and explicit words. My blood boiled with rage as I lurched towards him, to only find myself screaming in agony at the piercing pain that overwhelmed me from my wrists being tied, Derek winced.

"What are you doing?" I said through pants, leaning my head forward as my hair covered my face.

"You are turning into a monster Nora, you're different" Stiles stepped forward nervously. This had made me laugh hysterically; all the familiar faces who were my 'friends' stared blankly at me.

"Oh because you lot don't like what I've become" I paused for a second to regain my breath before raising my volume "You decided to tie me up"

"We are trying to help you Nora" I hid my surprise as Allison appeared from behind Scott her face stained with tears; she was in on this too? My cheeks flushed as the blood inside me began to boil with rage.

"When I get out of here, I'm going to kill you all" I said sweetly but deadly a smirk rose on my face.

Derek had hold of my face in a matter of seconds forcing me to look at him his nails digging into my cheeks "We will find a way of saving you, whether you like it or not" I spat specs of blood into his face before smiling with blood stained teeth and he growled at me, his other hand twitching at his side. He wanted to hit me, I could sense it.

"Hit me Derek" I mocked him as he turned his back to me running his hands through his hair nervously, his back was hunched over and I could see all this had taken its toll on him. He wiped at the blood on his face, looking at his hands in disgust.

"I will not hit you" He promised and I laughed again, the hate radiating off me. I felt like my whole existence depended on this hatred I felt for everyone. The stronger I was the more it consumed me.

"Nora this isn't you" Allison was on the bridge of tears as she shook her head, Scott silently put an arm around her and I glared at the movement.

"Why don't you go fuck Scott Allison" And that's when she took a step forward, her jaw clamped tight as she pulled her arm back and hit me hard across my face, sending me looking in the opposite direction. I spat out spits of blood onto the ground, maybe even a tooth before looking up at her amused.

"Happy now?" I moved my jaw around in a circular motion, hearing a clicking noise ringing in my ears. She had broken my jaw, bitch.

"Go to hell" She spat before storming out of the room; I heard shrill cries escaping her, Scott flashed me a look that would kill before running after her. I would be lying if I said I didn't care.

"I can't even look at you anymore" Stiles looked pale, as his eyes soaked my face one last time before looking away. He held a hand to his forehead, squeezing his eyes shut. I felt my stomach drop for a second before composing myself. I wasn't supposed to feel anything other than hate.

"So what are you going to do with me?" I said my throat dry from all the shouting and screaming, I leant back against the chair eying them all suspiciously waiting to hear their amazing plan.

Derek was the first to speak "We are going to find out how to save you"

"You keep saying that but I see no improvements" I scoffed, a tiny tear drop of blood sliding out of the corner of my mouth, I watched it drop down and soak into my jeans.

"We're on to something" Stiles said sitting down on the ground with his back leant against the nearest wall to me, he kept his eyes darted towards the floor.

"Let me know how it goes" I said sarcastically and then I choked up more blood. It slid down my chin and onto my chest.

Unable to take anymore Derek muttered "You go on first watch will you?" before disappearing upstairs. That had left me and Stiles alone.

My eyes flickered to his fingers trembling around the silver blade in his hand "You wouldn't hurt me with that "It was more of a statement then a question. I knew when it came down to it Stiles could never bring himself to harm me.

"You underestimate me" He mumbled, not even to dare look my way.

"I guess I do" I flung my head back against the chair, blood was starting to dry on my lips and I licked at it, tasting the saltiness on my tongue.

"Let me go Stiles, it's no use you can't save me" I sighed and this had caused him to shoot up, he was inches away from my face and I noticed his eyes welling up.

"You think I can just do that? Leave you to turn into this" He paused spitting out the words "Monster?" I went to protest but he stopped me "You may have given up but I haven't" He turned away from me for a second and I could hear the silent sobs escaping him. For a moment I wanted to comfort him but I snapped that thought away.

Slowly, looking back at me he took a deep breath before kneeling down in front of me, his face pleading with his eyes red raw, I stared at his bottom lip quivering "I love you Nora" I watched as he brought a trembling finger to my cheek stroking it gently, a sad smile reaching his lips "I haven't lost hope" He breathed dropping his hands to his sides before getting up and sitting back in the spot he was a few moments ago.

My heart sped up and I bit my lip to stop the tears from betraying me, I could feel the heart that was deeply hidden behind a cage of thorns breaking at the sight of Stiles becoming so vulnerable. He loved me and I didn't deserve his love because I truly was a monster.
