Another update enjoy!
Jolting awake I looked around in a panic to discover I was tied up with wires, I couldn't move my mouth, I was in a dark room, and there was a constant flow of electricity shocking through my system. I could hear a door open before the grunts of someone falling down the stairs before the light was turned on, temporarily blinding me until my eyes adjusted and I saw Stiles standing there looking at me in shock. Breaking into tears I tried to figure out why they would want him. Stiles ran over and tried to pull the wires around my wrist only to be shocked.
"Ow."
"She were trying to warn you. It's electrified."
I whimpered as Gerard Argent walked down the stairs as Stiles moved in front of me before turning to the hunter.
"What are you doing to her?"
"At the moment, just keeping her comfortable. There's no point in torturing her, she won't give Derek up. The instinct to protect her Alpha's too strong."
Stiles swallowed.
"Okay. So what are you doing with me? Because Scott can find me, all right? He knows my scent. It's pungent, you know? It's more like a stench. He could find me even if I was buried at the bottom of a sewer covered in fecal matter and urine."
Gerard smiled at that.
"You do have a knack for creating a vivid picture, Mr. Stilinski. Let me paint one of my own. Scott McCall finds his best friend bloodied and beaten to a pulp."
I growled and lurched forward, hell bent to protect Stiles. Gerard turned an eye on me.
"And older, over protective sister, can do nothing to protect you. How does that sound now?"
Stiles easily replied.
"I think I might prefer more of still life or a landscape, you know?"
Stiles paused and his head moved like he was sizing the hunter up.
"What are you, 90? Look, I can probably kick your ass up and down this room."
Gerard backhanded Stiles hard enough to send him to the floor, growling I lurched forward again. Doing everything in my power to try and get to Stiles as Gerard started punching him in the face, over and over again.
Stiles was aloud to leave and go home, I wasn't. For hours I was tied up and kept getting shocked until Chris Argent walked downstairs and stared at me.
"You know, my family's done this for a long time. Long enough to learn things, like how a certain level of electric current can keep you from transforming. At another level, you can't heal. A few amps higher, and no heightened strength. That kind of scientific accuracy, it makes you wonder where the line between the natural and the supernatural really exists."
He paused and look at the little black box I was beginning to hate, reaching out he touched it before shaking his head.
"It's when lines like that blur…you sometimes fine yourself surprised by which side you end up on."
He looked at me one more time before lowering the voltage until it was off before walking over and helping me down, ripping the electrical tape off my mouth.
"Why?"
I panted and he smiled.
"I don't like what my family has become, and I won't ruin yours."
I nodded in thanks as he supported my weight as I almost collapsed.
"Go home Destiny, heal, I'll make sure your mate returns to you."
I nodded as he stepped away from me.
"Thank you."
He smiled at that and left me on my own for a few minutes before I decided to climb the stairs and go home.
Making it to the house I stumbled into Isaac by mistake, causing the younger wolf to grab me and yell for Derek, causing both of the older wolves to stop and look back before they rushed over to us. Derek quickly taking me from Isaac.
"Destiny? Are you ok?"
I nodded, collapsing against him in exhaustion.
"Sleep, you're safe now."
I nodded, curling against him as the group approached the house, my sensitive ears picking up something about a pack of Alphas before passing out.
Hope everyone is enjoying the updates!
