Chapter 108
Bethany's POV
“Are you f*****g kidding me?”
yelled in anger. Ciara is lying on a f*****g death bed and it is all his fault. He wasn't careful when recruiting his warriors, he brought in monsters into his castle and one of those monsters hurt my friend. Her life is on the line, she may not survive thi trauma and like the doctor said, even if she survives this, her life would never remain the same. I have no idea how I'm goin; to tell her sisters about this. They won't be able to bear it, it would be so devastating because they are still moaning about the death of their mom, now see what has happened to Ciara, and the worst part of it all is that it all happened under my watch. She left her under my care and I let this happen, I let her get hurt. Now I'm asking Dominic to do the right thing. I'm asking him to give those traitors what they deserve, I'm begging him to avenge Ciara and end that bastard’s miserable life. But guess what he told me,
“Ym so sorry my love, but I can’t kill him, I need him for this mission to succeed.”
Can you believe that?
This mission...
This war...
Thats all he ever thinks about, that is all he cares about. He has done many despicable things because of this war, he is hurting the people closest to him, he has hurt me so badly and the worst part of it all is that he doesn't even realize that he is hurting me, he keeps acting like it is all okay.
“That guy is a murderer, Dom. He must be the same guy that finished that first mission that king Ashford assigned to me, he is the same guy that killed those generals. I am very sure that he has killed a lot of warriors that are loyal to you. He is a frrer+g murderer, he raped Ciara, and he tortured her for months. He is a goddamn mole, Dom, he works for Ashford we caught him working for Ashford, we F*****g caught the moles, we caught them, Dom, we caught them. So what other reason do you want, why can't you just get rid of the f****g bastards?" I yelled in frustration. I'm trying so hard to control my anger but it is becoming more difficult by the minute.
“Why are you making me look like the bad guy here, I thought you understood me, I thought we were way past all these misunderstandings, you of all people should understand what I am talking about. You have met king Ashford, haven't you, you know how he operates, you know he uses black magic, you know he uses devious means to get what he wants, I need al the information I can get from these guys, I need to know where he gets his weapons, I need to know where he gets his supplies of V-Juice and every other. I need all these details, I need to know everything about this guy Bethany, that is the only way that I can be able to take him down. I need these guys, I need them to tell me everything, I need to know everythin so I won't get any surprises when I finally left that bastard, why can't you understand that?” he yelled back at me angrily. I guess I was right when I said that this war was turning him into something else.
“This is it, Dom, this is the height of it. I can't do this anymore Dom. No, I can't take it anymore, I need a break from all this. No, I can't do this anymore. I'm done Dom, I'm so f*****g done."
"What do mean by that?”
“I mean exactly what you just heard. I'm leaving Dom, immediately Ciara wakes up, I'm taking her out of here. I'm taking Fiona and Ciara out of this castle. When you are done with your war, you can come and get me, that is if I'm still available I responded angrily before storming out of the room, going to get Fiona.
I wasn't bluffing, I'm taking the girls and I'm leaving this castle, I can't do this anymore. He is worse than king Ashford, he doesn't care about me or anyone else, all he cares about is this stupid endless war. But I won't sit here and let him keep treating me like a f****g nobody.
I went to check on Fiona, but she wasn't in her room, I met Dwayne and he said that she is at the Hospital with Ciara so I went down there to meet up with them and check on Harriet and Alaina. On my way to the hospital, I tried calling Graciela, but it wasn't going through. I guess the network is bad or something, it hasn't happened this way before, I wonder what is wrong with the network today.
When I got to the hospital, I found Fiona sitting by Ciara's side on the bed. She is still unconscious but she wasn't as bruised or pale as she used to be. Whatever doctor Fred gave to her, I guess it is working, her condition is improving at a fast pace and I'm glad to see that her bruises are healing quickly. I walked over and pulled her into my arms as the tears also slipped down my cheeks.
“She would be fine, Fiona. I promise you that. She would pull through, doctor Fred will take care of her” I whispered comfortingly, my hands moving on her back, rubbing her back softly.
“Where is that bastard, where the hell is he?” she asked me in anger.
“He is in the dungeon, Dominic has him locked up in the dungeon. He is not going anywhere love, he has met his Waterloo. Dominic would have him tortured for information, when he gets all the necessary information for him, then he'll be killed by Dominic. I told her. I know that is not the entire truth but it is not entirely a lie as well. He will be tortured for information, but I'm not sure that Dominic would kill him, he has no plans of killing those bastards right now, I hope it doesn't come bach to bite him in the a*s because he doesn't know what king Ashford has planned for him, he still isn't sure that he has gotten all the moles, they could team up and attack or worse yet, they could team up and free those bastards, then it would be too late for him to act, it would be so late.
“You look lost in thought, what is wrong, Beth, is there something you are not telling me?" Fiona asked me, snapping me out of my thoughts.
“Not really Fiona, I was just thinking about Gracie, how do we break the news to her? I've been trying her number but it has not been going through." I lied to her. Actually, it wasn't really a lie because I did try to call her number and it was not going through, but that wasn’t what I was thinking at that moment when she asked me that question. I can't tell her that her sister's molester would not be brought to book, she would be so disappointed and she would try to fight Dwayne about it. She would never know that it is not Dwayne's fault, she would not be able to fight this issue so it is better if I don't tell her anything at all.
“Umm, are you saying that you are not aware of the lockdown, you do know that king Dominic had blocked out every call from coming in or going out. Dwayne told me not to bother trying to call out because it would not be possible. But don't worry your pretty head about that, I was able to call Gracie before the lockdown started. I told her Ciara was involved in a “minor accident and I also told her that she is already getting better” She told me with a smile.
I heard everything she was saying but I wasn't paying attention to it, did she just say that Dominic just imposed a lockdown? Why do I feel like this lockdown was imposed in this castle because of me, is he trying to stop me from leaving this Castle?
I think Dominic is trying to dare me, he wants to see what I can do right?
Good...
I'll show him what I can do when I'm furious. I won't let him do this to me, he can't get what he wants always. This time he has to give me what I want and want I want is the heads of those traitors on a platter. I went to doctor Fred, I went to find ou the latest report on Ciara's case. I can see that she is getting better, but I still need to hear it from him, I need to know that she is going to be fine, I need to know if she is still human because of the level at which she is healing, 'm pretty sure that i is supernatural. I just don know which gene is dominant in her body, what is she turning into?
Unfortunately, the doctor was not in his office so I decided to check on Harriet because while I was going to the doctor's office, I noticed that is now awake. She was sitting up on her bed, playing with her phone, but I didn't stop by because I wanted to find out about Ciara first, I know that if I go in to check on Harriet, I would miss the doctor so I had to go to the doctor's office first, but I wasn't able to meet him anyways, so I turned around immediately and went to check on Harriet. “How is it that you always find a way to escape every attack, you always managed to come out unscathed, do you have a superpower that I don't know about?” Harriet joked. I guess she must have noticed my mood and she is trying to lighten the mood, but I wasn't in any mood to joke around, I am pissed, I want to do something that would hurt Dominic, I want him to feel this pain that I'm feeling, I want him to be hurt. He thinks he cannot feel pain right, he thinks he is too strong to be hurt I guess he hasn't met my friend name rage and her sister named payback.
