Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty
I ran my hands through my hair over and again, frustrated. They needed to know, but due to Bailey’s command, I couldn’t tell them. What if I could… improvise?
I took out a pen and paper, with shaky hands I wrote;
Oldiers who wore
‘Thane. I want you to know something: I killed them. Those dead, I did that; I had been the one who freed Bailey too; she has this control over me, she controls my mind, and I can’t even explain it. I didn’t want to kill those men, they’ve done nothing wrong to
Thane; warrant me doing that, but I did anyway because she asked me to. You can’t trust me, she would use me against you.‘
I paused writing, staring at the paper where I was almost sure that I had been writing on. There were no words on the papers, just lines; that’s all I had been writing; the words had been in my mind, and I thotight I was penning them down, but I was only writing down gibberish.
I gasped. Taking steps backwards till I came in contact with the wall.
I couldn’t write it down because I was still under her control.
I dropped to the ground letting out a scream. I didn’t hold it back. I cried till’I could cry no more. The rooms were soundproof; no one would hear me.
I had never felt so… alone in my life, so afraid. I rose, picking up the paper. I tore it into pieces, tossing it to the floor..
It was all his fault.
That’s the only thing I could think about.
Everything happening to me was all his fault; he knew this; I was sure he did; he deceived me.
I pulled the doors to the balcony open, and I let out my wings.
I would find him and I would make him pay.
My travels to the Raven Claws pack took hours of flight. But whenever I closed my eyes, I saw Nick, the man I trusted who betrayed me.
It was late at night when I arrived at the Raven Clan pack house.
I didn’t go through the front door. I knew where exactly his room was. I broke through his window, but to my utmost disappointment, he wasn’t there. He could be anywhere in the pack or he could be somewhere else.
He was at the farm.
I should have suspected that, but by nighttime, I thought he would be in his room. I dropped

down just behind him.
“Riley,” he called, knowing it was me even before looking. “It is nice to see you again,” he says, turning to me with a smile on his face.
I let all the rage out. I launched at him, my claws dug into his skin–they were sharper than any wolf’s claw could be.
“Riley-”
Before he could even say the words. I dug my fangs into his neck, ripping out flesh; only then did he notice that I had returned for retribution. Be pushed me away with enough force that I went soaring in the air. I landed hard; the air knocked out of me, but I was quick to get to my
feet.
“I am older than you, Riley; I am stronger.” He warns.
“And I am very pissed.”
With that, I launched at him again, swiping his legs from under him, and he lost balance. I brought him down with a blow to his chest, followed by another to his face. He reached up, getting a grip on my shoulders; he swung me over, and I landed against the hard ground. I rose quickly, sending a kick to his leg, and he groaned. I picked the same injured leg, and with much effort, I snapped it. He snarled at me.
“Stop,” he manages to say. “I know why you are here, and I’m sorry.”
“Sorry?. That’s not good enough.”
I sent a kick to his face, and he spit out blood. He cracked his leg back into place; this time he came at me with as much furry as I did him; he drove me against the tree, and my back connected with the tree trunk.
“Stop.” He warned again, but I tried reaching for him once more, I clawed at his face. I almost got his eyes; he pulled back, sending a kick to my abdomen, and I doubled over. I spit out blood.
“What the hell is wrong with you?
“You traitor. You didn’t tell me, Nick; you didn’t tell me what I was going to become; you lied to me!” I cried out. I couldn’t speak about Bailey with him; the restriction stopped me from doing that.
“I didn’t tell you that you would be part demon and would sometimes have to live with your will being taken from you. I’m so sorry, Riley. I had no right to do that to you, but… I had felt so lonely; I needed someone. I was being selfish, and so I deserve this, but please forgive me.”
I sent a kick to his still–healing leg, and he fell back to the ground.
“If I survive this all, I will be back for you, and I will kill you, Nick‘

With that, I flew away.
