Rage!
Rage!
Darren suddenly fluttered his eyes open. He found himself in a deep darkness and for some reason, he could tell that he was having a dream.
He embraced Kyley in his bed, as they lay chest to chest in the darkness of his room. The scent of her hair wafted through to his nose, having him feeling calm and at peace.
Suddenly, he and Kyley started to make love. The latter squirming her hips on his crotch violently with passion and intense love.
Soon they were in a sitting position, and Kyley didn't stop riding him. Their bodies entwined as one as they burned in the passionate fervor of lust.
" Hah! Hah!" They both gasped in the bosom of pleasure, merging their bodies as though they couldn't get enough of themselves.
Darren kissed Kyley passionately for a long while as they made love, then he moved his face near her neck in a bid to bite her.
However, just when he was about to dig his sharp teeth in the usual dark bite mark spot, Kyley's figure became hollow as Darren bit on air instead.
Darren opened his eyes and frowned, confused at what was going on. His heart grew antsy as he suddenly had a bad feeling.
He looked up to look at Kyley, only to find her shedding tears of blood as her face contorted in pain.
" Darren... Where are you?"
" Darren, help!"
Her voice was stacked in an ethereal cry and plea, as both sentences echoed as one in his ears loudly like the honk of a trailer.
Darren saw Kyley's figure slowly disappear into nothingness as his bite mark burned in severe pain... It was as though someone had hammered a concrete nail at that spot.
He couldn't help but shut his eyes tight as his head spun from the severity of the burn in his neck into a deep darkness!
" No!" Darren yelled as he shot his eyes open.
Waking from his dream, he saw his hands raised as though reaching towards the wooden beam above.
His chest rose and fell as he breathed heavily. The strange pain in his neck from the dream was still the same but it slowly waned.
Darren shot up from the bed and instantly looked around in panic, searching around for Kyley.
However, just as he did, he felt his head pound in a heavy ache, and he couldn't help but squint his face in pain.
It wasn't after a while when the ache subsided that he finally opened his eyes to observe his surrounding once again.
' Where am I?' The thought surged in his mind setting sight on the plain looking room, looking around to find out as he couldn't remember anything.
However, he froze when he saw the naked lady under the fur sheets in bed with him.
Feeling the stickiness around his lower member, Darren couldn't help but express shock and disbelief.
As though seeing Dana was a trigger, memories of the previous night flooded his mind as he came to a sudden realization.
' It was laced!' Darren had realized this late when he started to feel dizzy the previous night, and only now did he remember.
The drink that he'd shared with Dana during the mating ceremony had been spiked by his father, and since he drank the larger portion, he was mostly affected by it.
Darren had failed to realized this and thus, it had come to cost him!
He'd messed with another lady and betrayed Kyley!
Staring at Dana who lay in bed, sleeping peacefully, Darren spun in his thought over and over again, terror overwhelmed his frivolously thrumming heart.
' No! No! No! No!' Darren tried to convince himself, still in disbelief of what happened. He couldn't bring himself to believe that he'd done something as grave as such to Kyley.
He couldn't help but be reminded of the blood tears on Kyley's face as she cried in pain in his dreams, as well as the pain on his neck where his bite mark was.
Darren didn't understand how the bond thing works but he knew it had something to do with his infidelity.
Regardless, all these only served to point out to him that he couldn't deny the fact that he'd cheated on Kyley!
Still looking at Dana who was the cause of all of this, Darren suddenly felt a burst of rage erupt in his heart and he pounced on her.
He wrapped his hands around her neck and strangled them tightly while gritting his teeth madly as he fumed.
" Hah!" Dana feeling the sudden strangle around her neck shot awake in shock and stared at Darren with a baffled yet frightened expression.
" Did you do it?" Darren asked in a mad growl, not giving a care as to the pained expression on the latter's face.
Dana expressed confusion at first as she squirmed underneath Darren, thrashing her legs about as she constantly slapped at Darren's hands and pulled on it in hope to break free.
" Did you do anything last night after I passed out?" Darren asked in a loud out-yell that wasn't any different from a beast's snarl. Spit drooled out of his mouth as he fumed madly.
Dana's hazel eyes widened and froze in shock. The glint in them shook in terror.
She knew not to answer as Darren would certainly kill her if she did.
Even though she was starting to lose consciousness and her body started to grow limp from the strangle. Dana still didn't answer him and just tapped on his arms, hoping that he'd let her free to at least question her.
However, her silence was all Darren needed to find out the truth.
His eyes widened and his face reddened as he stated in a dejected daze afterwards, " How could you? I told you I had someone that I was loyal to..."
A tear drop falling from Darren's reddened eyes as he whispered in a low hurt tone, " How could you be so cruel..."
" Ukh! Uhh!" Dana only choked in response, however.
" Aaargh!" Darren gasped her throat even more tight and strangled her as he roared out loud. He was mad, hurt, and had lost all reasoning as guilt overwhelmed him.
" Kyley..." He muttered, thinking about his beloved. Thinking about how he'd betrayed and cheated on such a pure soul.
How was he to face her, how was he to tell this to her?
It was a mistake? No! This was all his fault.
Darren lowered his head sadly after a while and slowly released his grasp on Dana's neck. He had grown weak, both in heart and mind as he could envision Kyley's state when she learned of what he'd done...
" Haah!"
Cough! Cough!
Dana gasped and coughed as she struggled to catch her breath.
Scared for her life, she managed to sneak away from underneath Darren who seemed lost in a crazed daze. She immediately ran outside of the room, coughing and wheezing on her way out.
She fell and stumbled all across the floor as she ran off, but she pulled herself up and continued without stopping to look back.
Dana didn't even mind that she was still naked as that was the least of her worry at the moment...
Darren didn't pay mind to her as he just stared at the floor in a lost daze for a long while.
All of a sudden, he jerked out of his daze and hurried to find his clothes.
With a mad frown on his face, he picked up his clothes that were scattered on the floor and quickly put them on.
He was leaving this place!
He needed to return to Kyley and confess to her. This was the only thought that surged in his mind at the moment as he couldn't bear the overwhelming sense of guilt that weighed on his heart heavily.
Darren couldn't stand himself at the moment and felt that he might end up offing himself if he didn't see Kyley any time soon!
Darren rushed out of the room once he was done putting on his clothes and hurried down the stairs to leave entirely.
However, he furrowed his brows when he saw his father standing in the middle of the hall as though to stop him from leaving. Behind him stood Dana wrapped in a fur sheet as she peeked at Darren, as though the latter had gone mad.
" And where do you think you're going Darren?" Chief Volke's deep voice boomed through in a thunderous resonance. He frowned, looking at Darren's figure as the latter rushed down the stairs.
Darren didn't say anything as he just continued forward without giving a care as to whether the chief of the Moonshadow clan existed or not.
He just ran past him towards the double door in a bid to leave.
Darren's father, chief Volke, turned around and watched with a creased gaze at Darren. He didn't try to stop the latter physically as he just calmly said, " You really think you can just walk away and I wouldn't do anything to that-"
" Try it!" Darren paused on his dash forward and half-turned to say in a daring tone. He stopped to fully turn around and looked intently at his father with eyes that burned with fury and rage.
" I dare you to touch a hair on her! And I swear that the day I was born be cursed if I do not burn down everything you hold dear to the ground!" Darren swore through gritted teeth in a hoarse tone that resounded around the hall in a loud echo.
Dana who stood behind, chief Volke couldn't help but shiver in fright at Darren's words. She hid behind the chief and looked at the latter as if to ask for help.
Darren stated straight in his father's eyes for a long while before turning around and walking out the double door, leaving the house entirely afterwards.
The chief of the Moonshadow clan didn't try to stop him as he just watched his back with a creased gaze as he left.
