“But-
“No buts you kill her or you get killed”
I look at where Jane lies. I have never killed anyone and I had nothing against her even if she just tried to kill me but if I were to save my life at the cost of here’s I would.
Standing up from the ground I walk up to where she is whimpering.
Raising the sword above my head I swallow as I look down on her.
“Do it” Aitch urges.
“No!” I state dropping the sword by my side in dismay, I can’t, I just can’t.
Aitch walks up to me picking the sword from the floor pointing it in-between my eyes as I accept my faith this will be my end.
Without breaking his gaze from mine he strikes the sword into Jane’s chest.
Tossing the sword aside easily like he hadn’t just killed someone, tears brim in my eyes for some weird reason I feel responsible for her death.
Aitch walks up to me holding my jaw in between his hand pressing his fingers hard till it aches.
“How do you expect to kill Jaden Perry, your mate, when you can’t kill a stranger?” he says fiercely, pushing me to the side.
“Lock her up” he orders the tears finally fall as I’m escorted back to my cage.
“Welcome to the badlands,” he says once more, locking the cage as I hug myself terrified.
Six weeks later…
JADEN PERRY
“Do you have a life outside this room?” his annoying voice says.
“Unless you have good news for me Elijah you’re not welcome,” I say continuing my one-hand push-up.
Losing count I start all over again I am a thousand and my Beta interrupting me won’t get me there.
“What if I say I’ve found her Jaden” I stop holding myself up.
Showing no emotion, I’m off the floor of the gym grabbing a towel and bottled water and pouring it on my overgrown hair and tanned muscles.
“Where is she?” I ask simply, cleaning my face with the towel.
“The badlands”
“The home of rogues,” I say surprised.
“Why so shocked that’s what she is isn’t it?” I tense at his words holding on to every fiber of self-control I had not to punch him right in the face.
How the hell did she wind up there? I thought she was happy with Dimitri though it killed me inside.
My Beta had returned from his vacation with his mate and I saw something changed in him, something I was envious of; happiness true happiness.
One I couldn’t attain, one that lied with Hailey, only saying her name made my heart tighten in my chest.
If she is in the badlands this might be the opportunity I have been waiting for.
“Get the car ready Eli I’ll take a quick bath and be out in a sec”
“Wow so fast, can’t wait to reunite with your lover” throwing the towel on him. I ignored his laugh, not amused one bit even though I had developed butterflies deep in my belly knowing I’ll be seeing Hailey Stewarts soon.
HAILEY STEWARTS
“You’re doing it wrong Angel, your weight is slowing you down,” Ride yells.
“I’ll love that ass to slow me down if it ain’t up for the challenge” Tyler chirps.
Really? Because I was trying my best not to be toppled by the large man in front of me.
He hits me double combo both I block with my hands and push at his chest he stumbles back and I don’t give him the chance to recover hitting him in the stomach with my knee launching my weight they called my ‘weakness’ on him and he falls to the ground I lock my hands on his head applying pressure on his windpipe till he taps out.
“That’s my girl” Ride comments while a few clap.
I glare at him, hands on my waist as I pant like I ran a marathon.
“You did well” Ride comes to my side smiling stupidly pulling his tongue piercing in-between his teeth.
I’ve found a home in the badlands, home of people who were just misunderstood, rogues who have been cast out of their packs, regretted mates, the few who survived an accident at their packs, or people who don’t like to be bound by the rules, generally, it’s a freedom land they only termed them bad because society found anyone, not in a pack is no wolf.
They look down on them like they weren’t part of the werewolf race.
They had some bad habits like the selling of sex slaves and bizarre arena fights but they had good in them.
“Last time you’re going to speak about my ass”
“Yes Angel,” Tyler says, smirking.
Angel in my name throughout.
I walk back into the house needing a bath.
I had been moved from the prison cells to a small room upstairs.
Training every day deadly weaponry, Aitch always said a female fighter one whose sole purpose was to kill Jaden Perry and my mother’s murders.
They had a problem with Jaden Perry, an enmity I know nothing about.
Aitch seems to hate him the most. I don’t pry into their personal lives and they don’t pry into mine.
Looking at the mirror at the change six weeks had brought about. I had gained more weight, my thighs, muscles, and boobs a balance between my feminine side and fighter.
My red hair had been dyed raven black and my hand had a tattoo of a jasmine flower and the initial M.
I love the change I had done physically soon enough. I would have to prove my loyalty by killing Jaden Perry soon enough, I’ll return.
“Angel” Salvana comes bursting through the door with a panicked look on her face.
“Jess you scared me Sal” Salvana is the girl who handed me the sword on my first fight with Crazy Jane.
“Aitch is selling you to madam Von “
“He’s what!” I scream at the same time the door is flung open and a few guys I don’t recognize walk in making way for Aitch.
“My little Angel”
“Sire ” I greet with a bow, hoping what Sal said is a misconception.
“I’m sorry to say but you’re being sold tonight”
“What!” I scream, Aitch raises his brow warning me to watch my tone, a look I ignore.
“You are in high demand and the price for you is so tempting I couldn’t say no plus Madam Von gets what Madam Von wants”
“But Aitch-
