Chapter 15 Fifteen
Amy's POV
“What the hell is wrong with you? Why would you even do things like that? Have you completely lost your mind?” Stacy scolded me for the umpteenth time.
I know she's mad, but isn't she taking it a little bit serious? I mean, things are already serious, but she's taking it more serious than me. The only thing I want now is a solution to get away from Damien. What is done is already done. I can't change it back anyway.
It's not as if I can invent a time machine that will take me back in time for me to correct my mistakes. Life is going on exactly the way I have made it and there is nothing I can do about it than to find a good solution to get rid of this guy. Now that I think about it, am I really getting my wolf?
“Stacy, that is not the situation you should be thinking about right now. I feel weird these days and it is happening since I've met Damien. I don't know if it is signs that I might be getting my wolf. If that is the case, don't you think he is my lucky star?”
She looked at me for a moment before giving me a slap at the back of my head.
“Stop dreaming. You are being delusional and it is not helping the situation at all.” She fired at me.
“But that is the truth. I'm serious about this and you think I'm joking? When have I ever told you things like this? I feel strange all over my body and I'm getting signs that I've never gotten before. It has happened since I started with Damien. Could it be that he's my real mate and I don't know that?” I asked hopefully.
But she still felt like I was hopeless saying things like that. Why wouldn't she just listen to me? I'm actually telling the truth.
“I know Brian rejected you and you've been so sad about it, but you can't just claim random men as your mates. He already told you he wasn't interested in you and you couldn't be his mate. Even though you were friends for a long time, he looked down on you and left. Don't you think you should stop trusting men so easily?” Stacy advised me.
She was right. Brian did that to me a while ago and rejected me in front of everyone. I was mocked by a lot of people for trying to climb high branches. Even though I'm already from a high family, it hurt me a lot that he treated me like that.
And I couldn't get over it for a long time. I always liked him and had feelings for him. I thought it would be the same, but who would have thought that it would end our relationship like that just because of a confession.
Not only did he not reject me nicely, but harshly in front of everyone. He didn't even think of not embarrassing me at all. He didn't care if anyone mocked me. That was what hurt me the most. Not the rejection.
“But I could swear that he mentioned me as his mate when he was drunk the night before. I've always harboured feelings for him but I hid it. However, I confessed to him because I found out I was his mate even though I didn't have a wolf. Who would have thought he would treat me like that? He had no disregard for my feelings at all and I haven't even seen him since then.” I replied to Stacy.
“That's enough. Stop thinking about that scum. If I see him anywhere around you again, I'm going to beat him up. Don't worry about him. He doesn't deserve your care.”
Maybe my body is just sending me missed signals and I'm getting sick from associating with Damien all the time. Perhaps it's not my wolf that is coming out but delusions is making me think that is the case.
Then I should find a way to get rid of him immediately. The only way I can have a foothold is if I have my wolf. But I doubt someone like him would even give up if I had the wolf. If he wanted to deal with me he would still find ways.
The best way is to get rid of him completely. Maybe I should just kill him. At least if he dies, his mouth would be shut. The dead can't speak anyway, so there is no way for him to leak my secret and ruin my father's life.
My father has worked so hard for his achievement and now he's about to lose everything because he covered up for a useless daughter like me. I can't let my father down.
“What do I do about Damien now?” I asked her.
We both looked at each other, not knowing what to say, and sighed in frustration.
“This is so difficult. Damien is very dangerous and a powerful man. We can't just take him down like that.”
“Then what do I do? I don't want to be his puppet anymore. Who knows when he's going to leak out my secret? I can't trust the words that come out of the mouth of that man.” I replied.
We both took a deep breath again.
Then she finally stood up like she got an idea. “You know what? I have a good idea.”
“Really? Tell me about it. Quick.” I excitedly exclaimed.
She smirked, “I think you might find it difficult but it’s quite effective.”
Why do I feel like she's beating around the bush because she wants to say something that is absurd? Whenever she smiles at me like that, she's about to say something that I can't do.
I know she's trying to help me find a solution, but what exactly is going on in her mind? My best friend is as mysterious and mysterious as ever.
“What exactly are you trying to say, Stacy?” I impatiently asked her again.
She put my hand in hers. “I know you hate him, but you have to cooperate with him for a better future. For now, we can't do anything to him. Since he's so interested in you, why not make him lose his guard and trust you completely? If he falls in love with you, you can use that opportunity to get rid of him or control him however you want.”
I looked at her in confusion. He must be going crazy to think that I can make someone as evil as Damien fall in love. That man has a heart of stone. He doesn't even care about anyone.
He knew my feelings for Damien weren't even my fault, but he still threatened me with being able to sleep with me. He has been using my body to cover up for his horny self and she thinks I can make that demon fall in love with me?
I touched her forehead to see if she is having a fever. “You look completely fine but you're saying a lot of nonsense. Are you finally losing it?”
She shook her head. “No, I'm telling you the truth. This is the most effective method for you to stay alive. It's going to help you a lot since he is so interested in you now. Why don't you just make him fall in love with you?”
I banged the table in anger.
“Never! Look, I'm never going to indulge that man, okay? I hate him a lot for what he has done to me. And you want me to waste my time trying to make him fall in love with me? Why don't you just convince the devil to become good then?”
“Don't you understand? That man belongs in hell. He would never fall in love. He is evil and all he wants is to hurt people. Someone like that wouldn't even blink an eye at me. He is just using me.”
The fact that he's using me already makes me so angry. There's no way I'm going to listen to Stacy’s suggestion.
She looked at me and shook her head. “I already told you what would help you. If you can't make him fall in love with you, then you should find an effective poison that would kill him fast and reliable. But you should also know that you would go with him because no one would survive killing someone like that.”
“You think they won't find out you did it? Your entire family will go down with you. This entire pack would also go down with you. Think wisely. I'm just trying to help you out here. You're my best friend and I don't want to see you suffer in the hands of that devil. This is our only solution. Please.”
I didn't know what to say to her. Do I really have no choice than to indulge in Damien and do whatever he wants so that I can survive? Why do I have to go through all of this? This is so unfair.
