Chapter 126
Bethany's POV
I watched in horror as Ciara clawed at that general, tearing his chest and stomach with her claws, it looked so horrible, so damn horrible. She flung me far away with only one hand, I hit the wall pretty hard and it hurt so much. But the pain I'm feeling cannot be compared to the pains I'm feeling in my heart as I see her this way. She looked like a f*****g lunatic, she didn't feel any guilt or remorse as she repeatedly tore into him. It was so damn painful and it hurt me so much to see her this way, she is not like this, she was never this way. She has always been a loving and caring sou, she could never hurt a fly I guess doctor Fred was wrong with his diagnosis, he said she is getting better and that she is ready to leave but I think he was wrong, she is not getting better at all, this is not better, it is worse, way worse. I wonder why he would let us takeover away when he knows that she is a danger to everyone, it's just so crazy.
I stayed back and let Dominic handle the situation because there is nothing I could do about it, she is strong, too damn strong. I'm not sure I can fight off a normal werewolf, let alone a Were-pire that has vengeance written all over her face. It took a while, but he was able to bring her back to her senses, I had no idea that she would be affected by his Alpha tone. Sh looked so scared and guilty after he scolded her, I felt so bad about everything because I feel it is all my fault. I knew the dangers involved in letting them come here, I should never have let them come here, I should never have let them stay here, Ishould have asked them to leave when the other girls left, but I didn't do anything because I thought that they were in love with their guys, how would I have known that she was hooked up with a lunatic, how on earth would I have thought that she was being tortured by that a*****e. I should have taken care of her and I didn't so right now I am the one to be blamed for everything that she is going through.
I saw Dominic talking to Fiona, she is just as shocked as I am. Then I also saw him talking to doctor Fred so I thought that he was making arrangements to move her back to the hospital. Then I got a shocker when he spoke to me through our mind linked saying,
“Go to her Beth, you need to try and make it all seem like a joke to her. You can't make her feel bad or guilty, let her know that we understand what is happening to her and we are here to help her” He makes it sound like it is the best thing to do but I don't really think so.
“Are you sure that is a good idea, why don't we just tell her that she is a ticking time bomb, we need to tell her the dangers she poses to everyone around, she has to know Dom. We can't let this happen again, she needs to know why this is even happening to her, don't you think?” I asked back through our mind link. I think it would be so mean because we would be hurting her even more by keeping the truth from her. She needs to know everything, she needs to know that there is Something wrong with her, that way she would make an effort to prevent things like this from ever happening again.
“No!
You can't say anything about it to her Beth, I forbid you to say one word to her. You could ruin everything, you could ruin my mission” he scolded furiously, glaring daggers at me from across the room where he stood with doctor Fred. If I didn't know better, I would say that he has something up his sleeves again. He had this look that says that he has everything all figured out. He looked so stern and serious and it bothered me a little because the look on the doctor's face is not so good. He looked nervous or is that anger I see in his ee, I just don't know. I have no idea what was going on and I intend to find out exactly what they are both up to, but first, I went to Ciara and hugged her tightly, kissing her forehead, rubbing her back softly,
“This is not your fault Cid, It is all his fault, it is Fabius’s fault. We would get through this, I promise you. I would find a way tc help you get past this." I told her calmly, smiling warmly at her.
“What is wrong with me, Beth, what did he do to me? Am I some kind of monster?” she asked in tears.
“No, Cici, of course not, how could you even ask me that. You are not a monster, you can never be a monster even if you tried. You are just going through a change, it is a phase and I am sure you will get past it. I just need to have a talk with the doctor and find out exactly what is wrong with you, then we would work hard to get you through it, we are all going to be by your side all through this journey, I promise, Cici. Just stay here and stay calm, I'l be right back” I told her calmly, pecking her forehead before turning to walk towards Dominic and doctor Fred who still stood in the distance having a hushed discussion. No, not discussion. It looks more like an argument. If you ask me, I think they were having an argument but they don't want anyone to hear what they were saying. Dominic had his back turned to me and from his stance and his hand movement, it looks like he is threatening doctor Fred or issuing a stern warning to him. But Doctor Fred was facing Dominic and I am sure that he could see me heading towards them, but he didn't stop talking, instead, he increased his volume, making sure I heard everything he was saying to Dominic.
“You can't do this, Dom. You ant take her away from the hospital yet, I warned you that she was a danger to everyone including herself. I told you to leave her in the hospital so I can carry out more tests on her, but you just refused to listen to me. Now see what you've caused. This is all your fault, Dom, it's all on you." Fred told him angrily.
“Why don't you just shut up and do as you are told. You of all people should know what is at stake here. You have seen what Ashford is capable of, you know why I keep taking all these risks. We only have one shot at this, if we don't get this right, we could lose our lives, we would all be wiped out of the surface of the earth and you know I won't let that happen. I would do anything, I mean anything at all as long as it helps me put an end to this war. There is so much at risk here, we have to use every resource at our disposal and right now I need Ciara to be sociable 50 we can go over to the big city and meet up with her sister, and then I can meet up with Marco Lorenzo and get him to work with me. Look, Fred, I know you care so much about this issue, I know you want to get to the root of this issue and find a solution for her, but I can't have her in the hospital anymore. I need her back home with her family and friends, I need her to get back to her normal self before we leave. She won't regain her social habits by being locked up in that hospital room. But I can bring her over for a routine checkup every day, you can do your little scientific experiments on her and find out what was wrong with her. I'm also curious about her condition but this is the best I can do right now.” he told him firmly, shrugging his shoulder. I am pissed, so pissed. I can't believe that he is doing this again. He promised to be more careful about my feelings, our feelings. He promised to do things the right way, but I guess he only told me what I wanted to hear, he never meant what he said to me, he never plans to change, he will never change, never. I took more steps towards them, going to stand in front of him, glaring at him as my eyes filled up with unshed tears that threatened to spill down my cheeks,
“Really, Dom, Really?”
