Okay so I'm going to wrap up this story soon because I don't want it to run too long and get boring. Please please review you guys. It would mean so much to me! I'm so sorry haven't uploaded. I had a draft and then had to start over because it wasn't going anywhere. But anyway enjoy!
"Have you ever been in love?" Isaac shook his head with what little energy he had. His whole body was throbbing and he groaned. "Lucky you. It's horrible. Especially if the person doesn't love you back. They just stroll by having no clue that just a glimpse of their smile can bring a person joy." Craig said. Before Isaac could feel any pity, Craig beat it out of him. Click! "Then out of the blue, she notices you. She smiles and talks. It was all a lie." He sucker punched Isaac. Click! "I'm not usually a violent person until I'm pushed to the edge." Click! "And I'll drag down anyone as long as I don't get pushed over." Isaac was silent as he tried to hear Charlotte. She was breathing softly, a little whistle escaping as she exhaled. Isaac knew the Craig wasn't going to hurt her.
That was all he wanted.
Derek was flabbergasted. Of the two relationships he's been in, the first being with Kate Argent which ended horribly, he and Meredith's was the best. Now she stands before him 4 years later*, telling him she made a mistake turning her back on him. She watched him, hoping to get a positive response. "Really?" She nodded. "I'm so sorry Derek. You helped get to where I am now and how do I thank you? Leaving. I just-" Derek interrupted her by wrapping his arms hesitantly around her. She returned the hug and Derek, probably crossing some boundaries, buried his face into her hair. Suddenly a group of doctors and nurses ran into a room. By the way Meredith stiffened, he could tell it was her parents' room.
"Ms. Webber can you come with us?" a nurse asked. Meredith detached herself and followed the nurse. "Oh Derek I haven't seen Charlotte in a while. Can you call her?" Derek nodded and she disappeared into the room. Derek reached into his pocket and dialed Charlotte. It rang for a while then went to voice mail. "Charlotte it's Derek. I'm at the hospital and your sister's worried about you. Call me back or stop by the hospital." Derek hung up and walked over to the room.
Charlotte groaned and slowly opened her eyes to the sound of her phone ringing. She instantly shivered and tried to move but discovered that she was tied to a bed. Her clothes were gone and replaced with dark blue lingerie. Underneath her were stomach churning photos. Isaac, bloody, beaten and his face unrecognizable. Charlotte struggled to free herself but the rope only dug into her skin and she winced. The door open and Craig walked in. "Charlotte, I'm glad your awake. I was beginning to worry. Can I get you anything?" She stared at him as if he had two heads. "Besides the obvious." He moved closer and sat next to her on the bed. She then realized that it had to been him who undressed her. Images of Craig hurting Isaac and then caressing her naked skin overwhelmed her mind.
Her eyes watered as she tried to form the words but they were all stuck in her throat, causing her to make a combination of sad and pathetic whimpers. "Your even more beautiful when you cry." he whispered wiping a tear and tasting it. "D-Did you touch-" she couldn't even make out the rest without sobbing. "No!" he clasped her head in his hands. "I'll always want you, Charlotte. I'll only have you when you want to be taken." She looked him right in the eyes. She tried reasoning with him but he wouldn't budge. There was one last resort.
She wiggled and jerked around, the rope gnawing into her wrists. "It's no use." Craig said sitting down in the chair across the room, but that 's not what Charlotte was doing. She made eye contact with Craig and she pulled on the ropes and arched her back off the bed, whimpers leaving her mouth. Craig's brown eyes instantly darkened. His name escaped her lips several times and she could fell the tension radiating off him. He slowly crossed the room, his gaze never leaving her, and leaned over her. He buried his face into her neck, one hand gripping her waist and the other roaming. His claws suddenly dug into the skin of her hips and she cried out. He brought his lips to her ear and whispered "You'll have enough time to become more convincing."
Isaac's heart fell into his kneecaps when he heard Charlotte cry out, whether from pain or pleasure, he had to get out of here. His claws emerged and tried to cut through the rope but, they were too dull. A plan then popped into his head. He struggled to free his legs and ended up breaking the leg from the chair and fell onto the floor. Isaac froze and waited. He took Craig not breaking down the door as a good sign and broke off the other leg. He stood and walked over to the door, opening it slowly. He peered into the hallway. He ran into a corner and let out a loud yell. Craig then ran out of a room and into the one Isaac was just in. Isaac came from out of his hiding spot, closed the door to the room and locked Craig in.
With Craig's alpha strength, Isaac didn't have much time. He ran into the other room and froze. Charlotte was tied to a bed in dark blue lingerie with pictures of him beaten up underneath her. "Isaac help me!" she shouted. The door from the other room busted open. Isaac closed the door and pushed a dresser in front of it. "Bite!" he commanded and he pushed his tied up hands in her face. She grew out her canines and ripped the rope off. He untied the rope around his ankles. He quickly untied her, trying his best not to sneak a peek, and helped her up. Charlotte used the chair he was tied up to to bust out the window. They climbed out just as Craig burst through the dresser, articles of clothing and wood pieces flying everywhere.
Fingers intertwined, the sprinted off, saying their goodbyes in their heads.
"Charlotte it's me again. Please please let me know your safe." Meredith said before hanging up and plopping down onto the chair beside Derek. "I'm sure she's fine. It was a school day. Her phone may just be on silent." Meredith hunched over and buried her head into her hands. Derek immediately panicked, not wanting to see her upset and rubbed her back a little roughly than he realized. "Okay how about I stay here and you go home to look for her?" Derek suggested. "What if something happens to my parents?" Derek got up. "Then I'll go look for her." Meredith looked up at him and gave a small smile. She reached into her bag and handed him her house key. Their hands lingered together for a while. "Keep trying her cell." Meredith nodded and Derek walked out.
He dialed Charlotte's number. It rang and her decided to use his Alpha hearing. He could her Charlotte's phone ringing. Derek rang outside and listened. The ringing was coming from the east. The woods. Derek listened more. Heavy breathing and panting. Leaves being crushed. A thud. Isaac get up! Please I know your hurt and weak but you have to keep pushing just a little farther!
Derek took off into the woods.
Isaac knew he was done for. Even if Craig didn't catch up with them, he would give out from fatigue. He looked over at Charlotte. She was leaned over with her hands on her knees, giving Isaac a clear view of what he shouldn't be looking at especially during the circumstances. Goosebumps imprinted themselves in her skin and a cloud of air left her mouth each time she exhaled. Isaac grabbed the hem of his shirt and lifted it above his head. Ignoring her increase of Charlotte's heartbeat, he handed her his shirt, thankful he had a black wife-beater underneath. They heard footsteps and took off again.
After only running for a short period, Charlotte smacked into a hard surface a fell onto her butt. The hard surface was Derek. He helped her up and Isaac quickly explained what happened. Suddenly Derek fell face first into the ground, Charlotte having to leap over to avoid being smashed. Behind Derek stood Craig, his claws sharp and stained with Derek's blood. Beside Craig was his brother, Clark. They were trapped. Isaac made the first move, tackling Clark. Craig started to move but Charlotte grabbed a large stone and threw it at him. He went down and Charlotte got on top of him and started to bash his head in with the stone, grunting with each blow.
Isaac was wrestling with Clark when Charlotte came over and caved his head in with a large rock. They both got up to check on Derek. He was out cold. Isaac reached into Derek's pocket and pulled out his cell phone. Then a loud noise startled them.
They looked over to see a furious Craig, blooded spewing from his head, with a smoking gun in his hand.
