This story is for my cat who had to be put to sleep last year.
Tell me what you think!
Insomnia is kicking in again (and lucky me because I have two exams tomorrow in school!), so yay for you and ugh for me. xD I'll try for a Paul POV next chapter, or him in third person.
(First person is Nessie, unless specified otherwise by the way :))
Mori stayed on the other side of the door for a while, composing herself. As a human, she'd had the trait of being able to make friends and manipulate them to do as she pleased - making them believe it was what they wanted to do. Now she was a vampire, that power had enhanced. She was yet to use her full power at the wolf a few rooms from her, but she was having to gather all her strength now in order to fulfil her next task.
She stepped through the door and into darkness.
A light, child-like chuckle filled the air, making the ginger vampire shiver in fear. "So, the Cullen's have sent their servant to do their bidding. Wherever the deal is for me to get out of here, I accept."
Mori nearly gasped with surprise. However, she gathered herself quickly, it couldn't be that easy. "You don't even know the wager, or the deal."
A loud laughter filled the air, making Mori wonder if vampires can go mad. Her suspicions doubled when the blond's laughter suddenly cut out.
"I do not care for either, I just want to leave this room! It's sickening in here. How long have you gone, youngling, without a single drop of blood."
Not long, Mori realised. The vampire before her had gone months.
"If that is the case, then you can't be trusted with this job. You'll have to restrain yourself from drinking their blood. Before you even think about attack, you'll be dead. Your power can't save you from Edward and Benjamin, Jane." Mori had stepped closer to the blond that hung upside-down with chains around her. Several large, strong males stood around her, holding either a piece of chain or limb. There was very little chance of escape for the insane female, but everyone still feared her, if sometimes secretly.
"I'll have enough restraint, as long as you feed me afterwards. I think I'd even have some of the herbivore blood, if I must." The small blond made a face of disgust before calming her features.
"Good."
Jane left the room containing the wolf with a smug smile. "She's alive, enough, now I think I get my reward now?"
Mori nodded with a polite smile and lead the small female down the corridor. She opened a door and gestured for Jane to go first.
Within a second, the insane blond was chained and restrained, hanging from the ceiling and surrounded by vampires again.
"Sorry Jane, but we can't afford for you to have blood in your system and potentially harm your guards with the strength from the blood." Mori spoke calmly and turned to leave.
"You promised! You promised me-"
"Nothing. You yourself didn't want to hear the deal or wager, you just assumed that it'd involve you being freed and fed." Mori shrugged softly, smiling proudly at herself.
"You tricked me! You tricked me!"
"You tricked yourself, dear Jane. Your services will be required again, and if you behave until you're not needed, we may reward you. If not, you'll be punished again. Until next time."Mori spun on her heel and left with a simple wave over her shoulder at the blond female. She closed and locked the door behind her.
I don't think anyone really knows the true meaning of pain. Sure, when a child gets cut on a rose thorn, it hurts, but the pain goes away after a while. And later on in life, that child could break a bone, damage a muscle, lose a limb or have operations. But, most of the time, they won't feel that pain for long. Doctors have medication to make pain stop, because we're all naturally afraid of pain.
But this, I don't know if it is pain, but it makes me want to die. No matter how often I roar, or how much I move, this won't go away. It started as soon as that small blond camp walking into the room, and there seems to be no end.
It's been so long, I am beginning to think of the pain as a sign that I'm alive. So, when it finally stops, I'm pretty sure I'm dead.
Then, other pains come back. The pain from my broken bones, that are healing in the wrong place, comes back first. Then the burn and scar and scratch and cut pains. The occasional muscle twitches comes back last of all.
Yeah, pain is just a way of being told you're still alive.
I slowly let myself drift off to sleep, needing to save my energy for next time.
Wolfie phased out once his imprint's mind turned to dreams. He sighed, massaging his head. He'd been without Nessie for so long, he thought he'd never see or hear her again. Now, he finds that he can communicate with her one sidedly, as long as he watches and listens to Nessie's thoughts while she goes through that pain.
He hated it, he hated what they were doing. But, whenever he tried to get anywhere near the Cullen house, two Uley pups would spring out of nowhere.
When Nessie first disappeared, and there was no news of her, Wolfie'd just assumed Nessie had gone to find Bella. Her mother had regularly sent letter detailing on where she was and how she was doing. It was only when Bella showed up worried one night, saying that Nessie hadn't responded to any of the letter for weeks, that they found she'd been missing all this time.
Now he looked back, he wanted to kick himself for being such an idiot and presuming. He'd felt the fear from his imprint bond, he'd felt the pain. But he wanted more than anything to believe she was safe with Bella. So much, he'd ignored the imprint bond.
"Hey, Wolfie." Bella stepped out the house and joined him on the porch.
"Hey." He answered, trying to subtly wipe his eye without looking like he'd been crying.
"What news?" Bella asked. It was a reoccurring event between the two: Wolfie telling Bella how they were hurting Nessie that day. It took the burden off Wolfie and stopped Bella from presuming.
"They brought in a vampire I know to be called Jane. I'm pretty sure she's a bit of a celebrity, you should know her." Bella had gasped at Jane's name. Tears now wheeled up in the corners of her eyes.
"Not my baby girl.." Bella curled in on herself, sobbing into her hands.
Wolfie wrapped an arm around his imprint's mother. He was glad Bella didn't have to see what he'd seen through Nessie's eyes. Her thoughts had pushed out so much, plus the power of the imprint bond, meant that he felt like he'd suffered similar pain too. He knew he'd hate that pain firsthand.
