Chapter 5 - Pain & Revenge
Paul stalked through the woods, he was so mad...So pissed off he almost couldn't think straight. The giant black wolf walked over the hill and watched as the huge silvery wolf circled around and around. Sam growled, 'Paul you need to calm down...This isn't going to help Kiley at all.' Paul shook his head, 'I needed to get away for a few minutes...I can feel the pain she's in, she's scared to death and the pain is just radiating through the walls of that house.'
Sam huffed, "You need to jog around and get all your aggression and frustrations out before you go back to that house...She was manhandled tonight and if you're not relaxed she won't let you near her. You need to calm down and get your ass back to her house and help her through this. Otherwise there's no reason to ever tell her about the imprinting." Paul nodded as he got all the anger out of his system as he let out the longest heart breaking howl he had in himself.
Paul ran back to the edge of the tree line as he re-phased into his human form and re-dressed, it had been a good thing he'd shed his clothes before he phased otherwise he'd of had to go all the way home and get clothes and go all the way back to Kiley's. He pulled his navy cargo shorts on and pulled on a white t-shirt and slipped his sneakers on.
Paul walked into the house, Jake and Jared were sitting downstairs with Bri, Paul looked in the living room, "Where is Ki?" Bri pointed upwards indicating Kiley was in her room, "She was asking for you Paul." Paul nodded as he jogged upstairs. Paul opened the bedroom door slowly. Kiley looked up at Paul. She blinked and the waterfall of tears slid down her cheeks. Paul kicked off his shoes and stepped up on the end of the bed and walked along until he got to her and sat down as he opened his arms and she slowly moved over into his arms. Paul wrapped his arms around her as her whole body was racked with sobs. His heart just broke over and over feeling the pain and fear.
She had finally fallen asleep around 4 am. She had a few bad dreams and a couple of nightmares. But Paul never left her side. She held onto him like she was going to the electric chair, he never faltered and knew eventually he'd have to explain imprinting, he just had to figure out when the right time would be to explain it.
When Paul woke up the next morning, Kiley was missing. Paul slowly got up and stretching out his body as he slipped on his sneakers and ran his fingers through his thick black hair as he made a visit to the restroom and then walked down stairs. Jared's parents were gone for work. Jake, Embry, Bri and Sam were sitting in the living room trying to figure out a way to make Brian Houseman suffer.
Paul looked around, "Where the hell is Kiley?" Bri lulled her head towards the front door, "She went for a walk; she needed to get away for a while." Paul frowned, "Please tell me she didn't go alone." Bri shook her head, "No...Jared went with her...He wouldn't dare let her go by herself." Paul nodded, "Good...How is she doing when she woke up?" Bri shrugged her shoulders, "She wasn't talking to the guys much...Hell she wasn't talking much at all...I wouldn't expect her to be chatty for a while Paul." Paul sighed, "I'm not expecting much from her right now...I imagine it's going to be a while before she's even remotely back to her normal self." "Yea...But what's normal now a days?" Paul nodded, "Well that much is true."
About an hour later, Kiley and Jared walked through the door. Paul walked over and watched as Kiley walked up stairs and Jared sighed heavily. Paul looked at Jared, "What?" Jared shook his head, "All she did was walk and cry...The whole time...I don't know what to do for her and she's my own sister. I want to kill that little mother fucker for hurting her this way." Paul growled, "Well that would make two of us." Jake shook his head, "No that would make all of us...How dare that little asshole think he can do that to someone from the rez...It's bullshit and Bri was right he does deserve to have his balls ripped off and fed to him."
Bri nodded, "Thank you for the agreement. I just hope you guys make that little bastard suffer first." Sam growled, "Don't worry about it. Bri I promise were going to take care of him." Bri smirked, "You're God damn right you will...And I want to watch!" Sam nodded, "Feel free...Were grabbing him tomorrow night. So I hope you don't have a weak stomach." "Not when it comes to revenge." They watched as Paul disappeared upstairs to check on Kiley. As they continued to talk about what they were going to do.
Paul knocked on Kiley's bedroom door, he looked up when the door opened, "Can I get you anything sweetie?" Kiley just shook her head no and went back to sit on her bed. Paul frowned, "Talk to me please little bit. I want to hear your voice." She just looked at him as if she was staring right through him.
Paul was not used to her silence...She was always so happy and animated always bouncing around and practically bounced off the walls when he was around her. He hated seeing her like this...She didn't refuse to speak she just wouldn't...Like she didn't have the will to say a word to anyone. Paul guessed he understood why she wouldn't. He honestly couldn't wait to get his hands or paws on Brian Houseman.
