Chapter 85

CHAPTER 85. -Nick’s POV- I told the others to wait upstairs. We had been patiently sitting around for a f*cking hour to see if the warriors could get anything out of Amanda but they hadn’t so I was going to see if I could speed it up. She’s pretty beaten but maybe you’ll be able to get something out of her,” the guard said on his way out. I wanted everyone gone, the only people left would be me and her. I walked up to the cellar and Amanda was sitting on the floor. Her arm was broken and half her body was covered in blood. Her right eye was swollen and there was a cut on her leg where it looked like someone had driven in a knife and still- she hadn’t talked. “What do you want?” She said in a raspy voice, barely able to look at me or move her lips. “The truth.” I said and circled my fingers around the bars. She tried shaking her head but winced. The cellar leaked of wolfsbane and she wouldn’t be healing anytime soon. “… I’ve told the truth. I didn’t use magic on anyone so….just go,” she said slowly. “I can’t,” “Why?” “Because my brother is out there somewhere, his memory has been tampered with and if I don’t find out who did that to him then I can’t help undo it.” She forced her eye open and looked at me. “It wasn’t me,” I nodded my head and took out the gun thad tucked in the back of the pant line. “I know,” I said and saw the shock mixed with horror on her face when she saw the gun. They weren’t silver bullets so they wouldn’t kill her and she wouldn’t bleed out either. They were metal pellets laced in wolfsbane so it would just hurt like a f*cking b*tch. “I know you didn’t do it but you know who did. She said your name so easily, you should’ve heard her-basically screaming it to my sister s so that she wouldn’t die but had no problem with you paying the price.” I loaded the gun and grabbed a chair, placing it in front of the bars.

“What are-” “Shh, don’t waste your breath. Save it for when you’re ready to tell me her name.” I couldn’t go on gut feeling, I needed the name to be said by someone who knew. And also, I wanted to see her in more pain than she already was. The people here spoke fondly of my sister and the accidental slip up happened where they would say some of the things she had been put through. Amanda’s name came up more than once. I leaned back and pointed the gun… “Just a fair warning, I’m not a very good shot .” I pressed the trigger and the first bullet hit the open wound on her leg. She screamed, the sound echoed in the dungeon and bounced back as she writhed in pain. I squinted my eye and aimed once again- the next bullet hit her broken arm. “The name, Amanda.” I said and touched my finger against the barrel, pulling it back quickly when I felt the sting. “Shit, that must hurt.” I said and scoffed. I loaded another pellet and hit her right on the neck. “Please please stop!” She screamed at the top of her lungs. 1/3 CHAPTER 85. “You know how to make it Stop. It’s so easy, make it as easy for yourself as she did for her,” head when she still wouldn’t speak and I loaded up after pellet. I flicked my tongue and shook my “Which eye do you like better?” I asked and aimed the gun, pulling closer and pressing it forwand, playing with her and enjoying the fear 1 saw in her eyes. “No… she breathed and the tears streamed down – “Here goes nothing,” I said and pressed softly on the trigger. “Sam! It was Sam!” She screamed and pressed herself back against the wall. It’s fascinating how our bodies, despite any injuries we might have, find a way to move painlessly in the eye of fear.

I got up and nodded my head. “Thank you,” The door opened and I saw the others watching with a cocktail of expressions. “What did you do to her?” Cassy asked me “We just talked,” I shrugged a shoulder and pulled my shirt over the gun, hiding it from the others. “Talked? It sounded like you guys were reenacting a horror movie down there,” “You talk your way, I talk my way.” Well d did your talk lead to any useful information?” “Nothing we didn’t already know but now we have the nume.” “She told you it was Sam?” Gabby asked and I nodded my head. A grin grew on her face and she walked up the stairs in a hurry. “You lied.” She said and stepped inside the room. “I didn’t, it “I didn’t, it was Amanda who ” “Cut the shit! She’s been down there paying the price of having you as a friend for hours now and honestly, she still tried to keep her mouth shut. But eventually, she sang your name lite a little bird,” Gabby walked up and sat on the bed. Nick and Edmund stood around Sam and they all looked relaxed because they knew they’d get the answers out of her now. “Tell us the truth, Sam, who is the witch? Amanda told us it was you so there’s no going back. If nothing else, you’ll get killed for betraying your pack,” she narrowed her eyes at them and pursed her lips. Say what you want about her but she was stubborn as f*ck and didet easily spill her guts. “I don’t know what you mean,” she said and crossed her arms Aiden came walking into the room with fast steps and Sam’s eyes le up. She still believed that she had a shot with him and for some reason, I felt bad for her. Sam lived in an illusion where she and Alden Were mates and everyone else was just standing in her way. Thats When it dawned on me

“You did it so that they would leave, didn’t you?” I asked her and stepped forward. She looked up at me with furrowed brows, she didn’t know me, I was new but I knew I was right. “You handed Gabby to Asher, knowing she’d stay there forever if it meant her people were safe but that still left her brothers here at the pack with Aiden. So you luid the witch put a hex on one of then, knowing full well the other two would leave to search for him and search for the answer but you never counted on them working together. You thought that once they left, Ailen would choose you.” Her eyes fell and her lips turned down in a snail. 2/3 CHAPTER 85. “It would’ve worked too if they hadn’t all been so obviously incompetent. Gabby wasn’t supposed to leave, I forgot to factor in the mate bond where that bi*ch could still talk to her mate.” She seethed. “But it’s over, it’s done, you’ve lost. So why don’t you just tell us who the witch is?” She stepped up to me but Nick stepped an inch to the side in front of me and Sam stopped. “I’m dead either way, so I’m taking this one to the grave with me.I looked down at her hands and gasped when I saw her nails had practically been filed away. The marks on the door and the walls, I thought they were from her claws but her own nails were damaged wounds weren’t healing. beyond recognition and her “What happened to your nails?” I asked her and she quickly hid them. “Nick,” Aiden said from behind us and everybody turned. “He’s here.” Sam’s eyes widened and she shook her head. “What, no! He’s not supposed to be back,” she whispered and I saw the confusion mixed with sadness in the depths of her eyes. I wanted the truth because I could see how much of it was still uncovered. Noah was sitting in Aidens office. The warriors had found him wandering the streets and after having put up a fight they finally managed to knock him unconscious and toss him in the car. He got up from the chair when he saw us coming and he walked straight up to his brothers. “What the hell is going on? Who are they?” He asked and looked at Gabby, Cassy, and me. Had he

forgotten both of them? 1 understood he didnät know me, we hadn’t even met but Cassy was his mate and Gabriella was his sister. Whoever this witch was, she was strong and whatever payment she’d received from Sam was grand for this to take effect. “Sit down, we need to talk,” “About what?” He sat down and his brothers stepped in front of him, leaning back on the desk. questions to see what he remembered and what he didn’t but Noah They proceeded to ask him seemed to remember a lot about his life and his family, just not Gabby. When asked if he had a mate he also said no meaning he had no idea who Cassy was to him, or at all for that matter. “Someone has been messing with your head and we need you to stay here until we figure out who it is,” “The hell I will. I’m getting out of here.” He got up and Gabby placed a soft hand on his chest. Noah growled and his eyes started glowing, his claws extended and he grabbed her arm.
