Chapter 107
Dominic's POV
I'm Mad...
I'm so furious that my whole body is shaking violently in anger. I am supposed to interrogate our prisoners and get the names of their fellow compatriots, but I can't bring myself to go in there because I'm too angry to get any info out of anyone If I get in there, I'l rip out that bastard's heart because he doesn't deserve to have a heart. Il F***g kill them all, don't it's way better for me to stay away from that dungeon until I am able to control my anger.
Bethany had cried her eyes out when we found her friend lying in a pool of her own blood, struggling to stay alive. He beat her, he hurt that innocent girl and it is all my f*****g fault. I brought them here and I handed them over to these beasts to use as they please. I failed to keep an eye on them because I was trying to find a way to get ahead of King Ashford, I was trying to get Marco Lorenzo to work with and at the same time, I was still trying to make Bethany love me and accept me for who I am. I let that bastard molest an innocent girl and t*****e her until she lost the will to live or the strength to fight him off. What kind of weirdo leaves a girl to bleed to death in his room, what kind of monster rapes a defenseless human girl ans pumps her full of V-Juice.
I failed her...
I failed them all...
Doctor Fred was so freaked out when he saw her condition, he has never had to deal with something like this before, he is st shocked that she managed to stay alive down to this moment, she should have been long dead because she had lost a lot 0 blood and her body is fighting off the venom from his bite. She was so pale and lifeless, under normal circumstances, she could have been long dead, but her determination and her will to live is very strong, she refused to give up, she just refused to die. He mind-linked me, telling me to take Bethany out of this room so he can do a better diagnosis of her condition, but Bethany refused to move an inch.
“You had better start talking Fred, I'm way too furious to be toiled with. Believe me when I say that you don't want to get on my nerves right now. What did he do to her, why is she looking like a freaking ghost, and why can’t you just seal up that wound and stop her bleeding?” she asked nonstop. She had finally summoned the courage to be closer and stand over her friend's slumped body, but she is still unable to stop her tears and hiccups that came with her nonstop whimpers. I tried piling her into my arms to comfort her, but she wouldn't even let me touch her, she refused to let me come anywhere close to her, she simply stay with her friend, looking fixedly at her as she cried her heart out.
It hurt me so much because I know that this is all my fault. It's not just the fact that I brought them down here and abandoned them, it's also the fact that Bethany had sensed that something was wrong with her she had sensed it and she came to me for help but I was just too stupid to help, I did not do anything about it and now her friend is on death bed and itis all my fault. It hurts me to see her this way, she is furious and sad and it hurts me so badly. What hurts even more is the fact that she won't let me comfort her even when it is obvious that she is in so much pain. I can see her pains, I can feel it in my heart, but she won't let me make her feel better, and that hurts me so badly. Harriet could have helped me comfort her but she is in the hospital as well. It seems like everything is just going wrong, it feels like everything is just going wrong and itis 50 f*****g frustrating.
I nodded to doctor Fred, telling him that it is okay to speak in front of her. She would find out anyway, so there is absolutely no need to keep it away from her, I mean, the truth is inevitable, she would definitely find out about it pretty soon. He looke at me for a second looking unsure, I'm guessing that whatever he is about to say, it can't be good. I know it's bad, I can see if in his eyes, but I just hope that she survives this experience, if something happens to her, Bethany would never forgive me. He'll, I won't even forgive myself. She is just so young and innocent, I think she is the youngest of the three sisters. How the hell will I be able to tell her sisters about her death, will this affect my relationship with Marco Lorenzo, will he still agree to work with me after finding out I can't take charge of my own home?
Damn!
This is bad, this is so f*****g bad. I can't even believe that I am still thinking about my alliance with Marco Lorenzo. She is still ying here, barely conscious, yet all I can think about is this stupid war. I guess Bethany was right when she said that I was slowly turning into a monster, I no longer think about other people, it's all about this stupid war. If I continue this way, I'm going to end up being worse than king Ashford, I can't afford to be like that bastard. If that happens then everything I've been fighting for will be in vain. All this war, all these countless piles of bodies, it would have been all for nothing. I can't let that happen, and the worst part is that I don’t know how to stop putting this war first, I don’t know what to do to make it all stop.
“Come on Fred, let it out already. She can handle the truth, she deserves to know" I told him calmly, nodding assuringly at him, urging him to tell us what is wrong with her.
“Well, if you insist, my king. But I'l suggest you prepare your minds for the worst, there is no better way of saying this to you guys, I just have to be plain and honest.
Her condition I critical...
Her body cannot handle the three different genes at once. Right now, it seems like her body is fighting against itself. She is ¢ human like you all know, but for the past few months, a new gene was being introduced into her system and her body has been adapting to the presence of a new gene, she had been healing quickly because of the vampire blood in her, I'm sure that she would be exhibiting some of the supernatural abilities of a vampire, but she didn't know about her own abilities because she doesn't know that the vampires gene was binding itself to her gene, turning her into a vampire. I guess her captor doesn't know that the little strain of V-Juice in that potion could turn her into a vampire. He is also so stupid enough to think that he could turn her into a werewolf when she still has the strain of a vampire in her. Right now, her body is struggling with the different supernatural genes that have been introduced into her body system.” He explained to us while he injected her with some serums, injecting it right into the bite mark on her neck, before cleaning her injuries and covering her wound with a ball of cotton wool that is dipped into a blue potion then he sealed it off with a bandage.
“Why can't you just seal his bite mark with your spittle, that is the way a bite mark is sealed, or am I suddenly becoming delicious?” Bethany let out in confusion. I'm guessing she is finding it a bit difficult to understand doctor Fred's explanation, or maybe she understands it perfectly well, but she just refused to accept that there is nothing that can be done about her situation.
“What did I just say now?
just explained to you in the most simplest way possible that her body is rejecting the bite of a werewolf. The two new gene are too much for her, how on earth will her body flush out the unwanted overdose of the supernatural gene. If you seal off her bite mark, it would flow out of her nose and mouth and maybe even her ears. I guess it's a good thing that he left her to bleed to death, if he had tried to save her, he could have killed her” Fred explained once more, making Bethany sob out loudly, as she turned to look at Ciara. I dragged my hand through my hair in frustration, I know what doctor Fred is implying and it is just so unbelievable.
“What are you saying, doctor, is she going to die, what is going to happen to her?” Bethany let you in a panic, looking him deep in the eyes.
“I don't think so lady Bethany. If she was going to die, she would have been long dead already. Although I'm not ticking out that possibility, she could eventually die if her body keeps refusing to accept the venom. But there is a big chance that she would survive this, her will to live is strong and I just gave her a potion that would bind all her genes together, it would mak her body adapt and accept the supernatural genes in her body.
I could have tried to get it all out of her, but it is too late already, and the genes are too dominant in her body system. Let's just hope that her strong will to live is strong enough to keep her going. If her body didn't strong enough, she could die in the process and at the same time, I still have to warn you to be ready for anything. This procedural work out or it could be a complete failure, but in any case, you all have to be ready for what this might mean for everyone, you need to prepare your minds for the worst because even if she survives this, her life would never remain the same again, she would no longer be human.” He told us calmly as he puts a call across to the hospital, making arrangements for her to be moved into the hospital.
“I want to kill that guy, I need him to die in the most painful way ever. I want to kill that bastard with my bare hands, I want him dead before the end of today and I want to pull that trigger” Bethany let out through gritted teeth. She had been kneeling at that spot, sobbing softly. She stayed in that position even after they transported her friend to the hospital. I trie once more to comfort her but she still pushed me away, hurting my feeling once more.
“I can't let you do that, my love. It is not an easy task to take someone's life, you would not be able to live with yourself afte that. I know how you feel, Beth. But you have to let me handle it my own way, you can't kill him, you are not a killer" I told her calmly, trying to get her to give up that idea. I know where this is leading to and I have to stop it now because I know tha she won't like the outcome of all this talk. Doctor Fred had been sugar-coating his words when he was explaining the situation to us. Ciara is turning into a supernatural creature, but she won't be a vampire or a werewolf, she would be something different, a combination of both. She would have the abilities of both creatures, she would be a Hybrid, also called Were-pires or Vaewolfves. I just hope it doesn't turn out badly, I just hope so.
“Fine, if you do not want me to kill him myself, you have to kill him for me. You have to promise me that you would kill that bastard today, I want him dead before the end of today. You have to promise me, Dom, you have to promise me." She pleaded with me, coming to take my hands as she looked into my eyes pleading with me.
I've been wanting her to look into my eyes, I've been trying to pull her into my arms all day, but now that she finally decided to come to me, I'm finding it so difficult to look at her or even hold her because I don't know how I can look into her eyes and tell her that I have no plans of killing those moles now, I still want to use them, they have some vital information that I need, besides, I still want to use them against King Ashford.
