Chapter 43
Mel.
" Mum?" he whispers shakily getting on his feet.
The woman looks at him without any emotion and starts laughing.
"Oh, I see you joined your family" she chuckles looking at us and her eyes linger on my mum a little longer.
I understand we don't relate to her, but Ty is her own son for heaven's sake.
Why would she be this heartless to her own blood?
"Why?" he whispers in a broken voice.
"Why? Oh please, don't act like you care about me Tyler, you are always around your dad and your so-called sister" she says looking at me in disgust.
Well, Whatever.
"I should have known" he mumbles looking on the floor in defeat and my heart breaks for him.
It's so sad having a bitch for a mother.
To think dad hid everything from him.
I think he should start telling us everything, maybe we wouldn't be in this situation.
"Ty" I mumble gesturing for him with my hand to come back and he obliges, he sits next to me hiding his face in his palms sniffling.
Poor boy.
I bring his head onto my lap and slowly run my fingers through his hair as he cries softly.
The bitch of a mother looks at us and rolls her eyes before turning to the king.
"Babe, let's get out of this filthy place," she says looking around in disdain.
The old man is so old compared to her. She shouldn't be calling him that, let alone kissing him.
She's a social-climbing bitch, it's a good thing dad kept his distance from her.
By the way, doesn't the king have a mate? Or perhaps he killed her, I won't even be surprised.
"Well, it was fun having you around sweetheart" he whisper holding her cheeks with his wrinkly hands and she smiles seductively at him.
Fucking gross.
"But, your job here is done" he mumbles drawing a dagger from his pants pocket.
"What....do... you mean" she stutters taking a step back fearfully.
Looks like someone is about to get paid.
This is why I can't work for him. Looks like he does this a lot when he's done using someone.
He's supposed to be king, protect and take care of his wolves, but look at him.
He doesn't value them one bit, he mistreats them and kills them whenever he feels like it.
Look at all those people in the cells, he deserves a very cruel ending. He and his generations need to go.
"I mean, I despise desperate little bitches" he says taking a step towards her.
I look at Ty and he has his face buried on my lap, he hasn't lifted his head but I know he's aware of what is happening.
His traitorous mother is about to be murdered, that's a double hit even though she deserves it.
"You can't do that please" she rushes to the door and the man appears before her.
How the hell did he do that?
Does he have powers that am not aware of?
Maybe he's king for a reason.
"Yes I can" he whispers and I watch in horror as his fingernails elongate to sharp claws.
His whole hand turns to fur and I wonder how he's able to shift only one part of his body.
That is supposed to be my opponent.
It only takes him a second to slice her neck, completely detaching her head from her body.
Did he do the same thing with Jake?
I lock eyes with him and he gives me an evil smirk. He just send me a message. A silent promise.
He gives me one more stare and walks out, leaving the dead body in the same room with us.
I will never forget this horrifying experience.
"Does he have powers or something?" I ask my mum who has been silently watching all along.
I don't think she'll be alive if we stayed here for two more days.
"He's a Lycan, and the only one surviving. They are very powerful than wolves, their strength is unmeasurable and most of them possess powers" she whispers tiredly and I squeeze her hand tenderly.
I have around 5 hours to make a decision before he takes one more person with his claws.

I never blinked.
I spent the whole night trying to think for ways to end this but came up with nothing.
I know any moment from now he'll be here and I don't want to imagine what he'll do.
Tyler cried himself to sleep and my mum is still in pain, asleep too.
Tyler's mum's body is still here and I did everything not to stare at it. I just hope I won't encounter nightmares in case I make it out of here alive.
She's been whimpering the whole night and I feel so bad that I can't help.
I wish I could take away her pain.
The only way is to get her out of this wretched place and have tony unlock her wolf, she'll instantly heal by then.
Speaking of tony, I didn't get to meet him or our training. I guess it was too late when I had my wolf released.
Right now am just praying for a miracle, anything to help me end this and go back home.
As expected, the man of the hour arrives with the witch from yesterday.
She silently gasps when she looks at the woman's dead body but the king doesn't notice.
If she's not careful she'll follow suit. But I feel I know her payday is about to come, the old man too.
"Wake them up" he instructs and his watchdogs quickly enter the room.
They roughly grab mum and Ty and tie them on the two chairs in the room, the same way I was tied yesterday.
Please, this can't happen. Do something, God.
Please, moon goddess, do something.
"It's time Melanie," he moves in front of me smiling like he's amused with whatever he's doing.
"Bring him in" he shouts and my heart threatens to break out of my chest.
Please don't be him.
Not Aiden Please.
The guards re-enter the room with one person that makes me happy.
The one man that means everything to me.
He's beaten, battered, bleeding and he's unconscious.
A tear of pain rolls down from my eye and when it falls on the ground, it blazes.
He shouldn't have touched him.
I lift my head to look at the old man, and from the look on his old face, he knows he just made a mistake.O
