Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Selena pov +10 Free Coins I'm jolted awake by some cold water being thrown at me , I suck in some air into my lungs and try to move my arms and legs but every limb in my body hurts . Right now I'm nothing more than dead weight and all I can do is move my fingers . " Get up , rogue whore ! " I hear one of the guards yell at me and even if I wanted I can't get up . A foot comes and hit me in my stomach , the pain takes my breath away and I have to try to gasp for air . " Just pick her up and taker her to the room ! " I hear another voice and my guess is they will take me to a torture room . The guard bends down and picks me up , I get tossed over his shoulder and I have no resistance in my body at all . I feel how my blood travels down to my face and the swelling only makes it hurt more . It starts to pulsate in my ears and I will faint if they don't let me down soon . " Place her in the chair and make sure she is properly fastened ! " A voice boomed out and I feel his aura , I know he is a higher rank wolf and probably the beta or gamma to the king . I get tossed in a chair and the guard takes my hands and fastens them to the chair , my arms get locked with some ropes and all I can move right now is my legs . I feel the guard squat down and start tying my legs , he is soon done with one of my legs . " You can skip the other ! This bitch won't put up with much resistance , she is almost dead anyway " the voice says again and I don't try to open my eyes and just let my head hang down . The guard let go of me and I hear some tools being placed on a table , I can only guess what they will use on me . " Bring the hammer ! Let's start with breaking her fingers " I hear him say and some feet move over the floor before I feel his presence close to me . His hand comes down and grips my face only to force my head back . Keeping my eyes closed I just breathe for what's about to come . " Tell me where your leader is ! " He says to me and even if I knew the answer I couldn't tell him with how swollen my tongue is . His pressure on my cheek increases when I don't answer . " You won't tell me ? Let me make one thing clear ! I will get it out of you in one way or the other ! " He let go of my cheek and it only takes seconds before I feel the hammer on my pinky finger , crushing it under his blow . I can't hold back a whimper and I feel how tears form behind my eyelids . I try to breathe through the pain and feel how my stomach turns upside down and I have to empty whatever I have in it on the floor . My puke run down my legs and I get hit in my face so my head whips to the side . " That's because your puke hit my shoe ! " I almost faint from the blow and don't know how much more I can take without my wolf . || I 1/2 Chapter 2 +10 Fred Coins I hear more men walking closer and the second his scent hits my nose . I know my time is up if he finds out . it's me . They come closer and I hear them walk into the room , stopping a bit away . My head is hanging down and I hope with how badly I have been beaten he won't recognize me , he might not even remember me after all these years since he forced me out of his kingdom . " Got anything out of her ! " His voice comes to my cars and a shiver runs down my spine . I know my scent is hidden from him with the help of a potion but at this rate , with all this beating I don't know how much longer it will hold . " No , this bitch is barely alive ! I don't think we got much use for her ! I can just finish her off ! " The voice says and I just sit here and listen to them . " Let me have a look at her ! " I hear my mate say and fear creeps up my spine , I can't let him touch me and find out . I will rather be killed than let him know it's me ! Forcing my eyes open a bit I see the man in front of me with his legs on each side of my legs , giving me the perfect shoot to kick him in his crotch with my free foot . I know it will probably hurt ten times worse with his anger and I might not survive this , it's a long shoot and one I have to take . Muster up every ounce of strength I have left I kick him with my free foot in his crotch . Earning me a furious growl before his hand comes to my face and he hit me so hard I fall to the ground still tied to the chair . My head cracks open on the floor again and this time I can't even whimper . Feeling how my life leaves my body , slowly darkness starts to suck me in . My mate's feet come to a stop in front of me and I hear him squat down to me . He sits there and I hear him sniff in the air for a moment . " Kian what's wrong ? " One of his men says and I don't care anymore . This is it ! I'm not going to make it out of here alive . " I don't know ! Something is off with her ! Take her to the cell and see if she makes it through the night . " He says and gets up from the floor .
