Flashback from chapter 21

"Hello Rosalyn dear" she jeers in a sickly sweet tone

Rosalyn was beyond shocked at whom she was looking at but that shock quickly turned to fullblown rage when an image of her bed ridden father flashed through her mind.

"Hello mother"

Third person POV (2 days ago

Nora Parker or rather Nora Sanders as she calls herself now smirked at her daughter's reaction whenshe saw her. She had always hated Rosalyn since before she was born, Nora had once visited a witchto read her fortune and it was there she found out she was pregnant and the witch told her that thebaby she carried would cause her to loose someone special to her.

At the time Nora was having an affair with a mysterious rogue she met in the woods, she had beenvisiting the witch to get potions to conceal their presences whenever they would meet up andpotions to keep her husband unaware of her infidelity, it was then Nora found out that Kevin wascheating on his wife.

Nora had ignored the witches warning being too wrapped up in her secret romance to realize theconsequences her actions would yield. But when Nora informed her lover of the news he had notreacted the way she expected, instead he refused to accept their child as he had plans a child wouldhinder, so he left her without a second thought.

Although she was heartbroken Nora knew she had to fix her mess so when her husband returnedfrom his month long mission she would have sex with him on multiple occasions in order not toarise any suspicion when she told him she was pregnant and, on the plus side he was a beta so noone would question her rapid development.

Everyone around her was so happy but Nora couldn't help being depressed she even tried to endher pregnancy once. After Rosalyn was born Nora couldn't help but loathed the child because shewas the reason the man she loved had left her and she was a constant reminder of what she hadlost and to make matters worst her husband and son loved the child and would often spend all theirtime with her.

When Rosalyn left Nora was ecstatic, finally she was free of that burden but her joy turned to angerwhen her husband kept searching for her non stop. Nora didn't know what to do she was so angry,even though Rosalyn was gone she still created problems for her. Some time later while Steven andMichael searched tireless for Rosalyn Nora's lover contacted her again, he apologized for hisbehavior and whilst everyone was busy searching for their daughter they were busy making up forlost time.

Nora and her lover made plans to leave together, while he used his leverage on Steven whom hehad done business with multiple times to get him to allow Nora to leave the pack, Nora made arequest of her son and husband that she knew they would deny her and as expected it all went asplanned. Nora left with her lover to live out her happy ever after and when she decided to matewith him she hadn't bother to use a potion and spare Steven from the pain, as a result leaving himbedridden.

Now after all those years Nora is once again face to face with the person she hates the most in theworld.

"I see your as stubborn as always Rose" Nora said as she picked up a poison coated knife

"And I see your still a bitch” Rosalyn sneered

Nora cackled at Rosalyn's reply then jammed the knife in her leg. Rosalyn scream as the poisonburnt her cut and spread throughout her body, she was thankful she had blocked out Alessandrobecause she didn't want him to feel her pain. Nora twisted the knife in Rosalyn’s leg as she pulled itout

"Why don't you be a good little girl and do what mommy tells you rose, reject that boy right now""Why don't you come a bit close so i can snap your neck" Rosalyn retorted

"Like I said stubborn as always but don't worry i know how to bring you down a notch”

"You see Rosalyn I'm not the bad guy here you are, afterall you took everything from me"

"I took everything from you? you must be crazy, you abused me since I was a child and when myfather tried to look for me you left him and cheated on him your nothing but a slut” Rosalyn yelled"Ahh yes Steven, how is he doing I heard he's been under the weather" Nora mocked

"Go fuck yourself why would I tell you anything about my dad? Your the reason he's sick”

"But you miss understand Rosie dear I never asked you about your dad I asked about Micheal'sfather” Nora replied with an smirk

"Have you lost your memory or something he's both our father"

"Ha ha ha ha" Nora laughed " I can see why you would think that but your wrong" Nora said herexpression turned serious at the end

"What the hell do you mean I'm wrong" Rosalyn asked

"Well you see darling Steven isn't your real father your real father-"

"Is me" Evans spoke up shocking everyone in the room including Kevin

"What!!" Rosalyn yelled "if you think I would believe anything the two of you say your all crazy this isjust some plot to get me to break down"

"Ohh but it's no trick Rosalyn I am your real father your mother and I met years ago and she gotpregnant but I had to leave so Steven raised you. I should really thank him for all that he's done”Evan replied with a smug grin at his last comment

Rosalyn didn't believe what she heard and she refused to let them trick her so she decided toconsult with her wolf

"Hey you there?" Rosalyn asked

"Yeah am right here” Althea her wolf replied

"Are they telling the truth is that bastard really my father?"

"Am sorry rose but they're not lying I reached out to his wolf and he is our father” Altheawhimpered

A tear slipped pass Rosalyn's lashes as everything that has happened to her over the years replayedin her mind, then she thought of Steven and how much he sacrificed for her.

Nora and Evans smiled as they saw Rosalyn crying, her eyes unfocused as she's lost in her ownthoughts but they weren't finished as yet

"Oh come now darling you shouldn't shed your tears for dead people it's such a waste" Evanstaunted

Snapping out of her haze Rosalyn replied "he's not dead you asshole”

"Not yet but he will be, you see I was the one who gave Kevin the wolfsbane he used to keep hisdaughter's wolf at bay, that is until your son intervened. In return Kevin ordered the doctor to injectsmall amounts into Steven as well and he's been doing such for months now" Evans told her

"He should have been dead already but he is a stubborn one as well but no matter in a couple ofdays he'll be a dead man seeing as you disappearing drove him over the edge” Nora laughedRosalyn couldn't believe what she was hearing so she tried to reach out to her dad's wolf Riley buthe did not reply. Fear creeped into Rosalyn's heart as she thought about her father dying, how couldshe not have realized he was being poisoned. Her fear quickly turned to anger as she shookviolently

"I am gonna kill you all" she yelled

"Ahh there it is the anger, the fear. Not so calm and collected now are we Rosie" Nora jeeredWalking over to her Nora grabbed a whip and slashed Rosalyn all over her body with it causing herto scream out in pain while Kevin pleaded with Jermaine to just reject Rosalyn and the torture wouldstop but no matter how they coaxed him Jermaine refused. They electrocuted, whipped, stabbedand even beat them both to near death however they both refused the offers.

Evans Nora and Kevin tortured Rosalyn and Jermaine for hours but neither of them yielded to thedemands made, instead they tried to sooth each other's pain by promising to hold on and assuringeach other of their love, eventually their torturers gave up and decided to retire for the night withthe intent of torturing the couple more severely the next day.

As they laid in their separate cages beaten and bloodied Rosalyn and Jermaine both thought aboutall they have been through. Jermaine thought about all the years his father would torture him andbeat him when he couldn't get to his mother this was something no one knew about not evenJudith herself.

Kevin would vent all his anger onto Judith every chance he got. Whenever something was wrong inhis life or someone pissed him off his wife would pay the price, however he had come home oneday angrier than he's ever been searching for Judith; when he couldn't replace her Jermaine took herbeating that evening it was then he realized his father was abusing his mother. Intent on saving hismom he would allow his father to take out his anger on him instead and that's how it went untilJermaine was 18 years old.

As Rosalyn and Jermaine laid silently a young 17 year old girl quietly entered their cell with a tray offood and water along with some medical supplies. It was not until she started opening Rosalyn'scage did they notice someone else was in the room. Rosalyn quickly took on a defensive stanceeven though her body was weak

"I-i-i-I'm not gonna try and hurt you I'm just here to clean your wounds please be quiet I don't wantthem to know that I'm helping you guys" the young girl stuttered

"And why should I believe anything you say" Rosalyn asked

"Really!? I'm a weak human and your a werewolf what chance would I have in killing you even ifyour not at your full strength the way you stood up not so long ago I wouldn't stand a chanceagainst you" the girl replied

Shocked at her revelation Rosalyn sniffed the air for her scent, the girl had spoken the truth she wasa human.

"So why are you helping us if your working with them”

"Because I'm not here off my free will ok they took me because i have something they want andbecause I'm smart they force me to make poisons that can harm and kill your species, it's whatthey've been using to torture you both, as soon as I found out I started making the poisons lesspotent that's the only reason you both are still alive that and your resilience of course”

" What your name?" Rosalyn asked

"Lillian but you can call me Lilly" she replied smiling

"Ok Lilly I'm Rosalyn and he's Jermaine" Rosalyn introduced herself and Jermaine

Afterwards Lilly cleaned Rosalyn and Jermaine’s wounds and gave them food and water as theywould need the strength for what was to come the next day. After assisting the couple she silentlymade her way back to her lab and laid on the worn out mattress at the far left corner of the room toget some rest.

The next day Nora Kevin and Evans tortured Rosalyn and Jermaine but all their attempts yielded nosuccess. Nora started becoming angry and impatient until she got so mad a sickeningly evil ideapopped into her head.

Nora left the room to replace two of her rogue subordinates, they were cruel men who would doanything she asked of them without a second thought. When she returned to the room Evans was inthe middle of electrocuting Rosalyn

"There's no need for that honey I found a way to break her for good" Nora said with an evil grinLoving the look on Nora's face Evans withdrew and allowed her to take over. The reason Evans loveNora so much was because she had a dark soul and even though people often saw him as a coldhearted monster Nora was way worse than he is.

"Owen this is Rosalyn what do you think about her?" Nora asked the tall man standing beside her"She is a beauty minus all those cuts and bruises I can see she is one hot lady beneath all that" hereplied

"I'm glad you like her” Nora smiled "she’s yours”

"What!!?" Everyone including Owen asked at the same time

"She's yours, you can do with her as you please, I know you haven't had a mate in a long time soconsider this my gift to you because you are such a hard worker"

The man smirked as he nodded his thanks thinking about all the things he could do with a beautifullady such as Rosalyn. Realizing what was going on Jermaine started yanking on his chains trying toset himself free there was no way in hell he'd let another man touch Rosalyn.

Nora Kevin and Evans left the room as Owen and his companion stayed behind. The other manpinned Rosalyn to the ground as Owen removed his pants, Rosalyn thrashed and fought but shewas too weak to fend off both men at the same time. Owen slipped his hand under her dress andremoved her underwear as Rosalyn kicked trying to get away from them, he then forced himselfbetween her thighs holding onto her legs to keep her steady.

Jermaine was going out of his mind as he yanked and pulled with all his strength to try and saveRosalyn but his efforts remained futile. He yelled screamed and threatened but the two men paidhim no mind.

Owen forced himself inside Rosalyn in once swift painful thrust as she screamed out in agony. Hewas about to thrust again when he felt himself being lifted from the ground and thrown across theroom by a raging Jermaine. Jermaine's yellow eyes which indicated his wolf had taken control of hisbody flared with such anger and hatred he wouldn't be able to recognize himself if he looked in amirror. Jermaine shifted into his wolf as he grabbed the man that was previously pinning Rosalyn tothe ground and ripped him apart blood and body parts splashing all over the room then he turnedtowards owen and snapped at his leg only grazing him as he ran towards the door and down thehallway.

However, Jermaine had no intention of letting him escape as he chased after him and dragged himback inside the room leaving a trail of blood behind them. He then shifted back into his humanform and stuck his hand into Owens chest pulling out his heart then ripped his body to shreds.Evans and the others could not believe what they had just witnessed. The moment Rosalynscreamed it was like Jermaine became a monster, his eyes turned to a bright glowing yellow as heripped apart the chains holding him down as if they were mere paper and the way he gruesomelymurdered the two men was enough to strike the fear of God into anyone.

Getting angry once more Nora barged into to the room while Jermaine was getting dressed. He hadalready freed Rosalyn from her shackles and assisted her in getting dressed as she was too dazed asto what had just happened to her.

He was putting on his garments when Nora entered the room, he was so shocked he didn't havetime to react as the moment he turned to face her Nora stuck her claws into his belly ripping acrosshis abdomen, Nora laughed triumphantly at the shocked expression on Jermaine's face as he fell tothe ground bleeding out.

Rosalyn was in a daze as her mind tried to wrap itself around what had just happened to her, shecouldn't believe that she was raped and her mom was the one who ordered it none the less. She satstill in a daze even after Jermaine had broken her chains, she had flinched when he tried to touchher but soon relaxed when she realized who it was.

Rosalyn’s mind was in a fog of disbelief never had she ever expected something like that couldhappen to her, she was so wrapped up in her dismay she hadn't noticed her mom sneaking up onJermaine it wasn't until Nora started laughing did Rosalyn realize what was happening. She lookedup to see Jermaine lying on the ground bleeding out while her mom stood over him cackling likethe witch she is.

"Noo00000" Rosalyn screamed as she scrambled towards him

Jermaine's breathing was shallow his blood gushing out in gallons as his wound remained open dueto the poison that coated Nora's claws. Rosalyn cradled Jermaine in her arms rocking back and forthas she chanted

"No no baby please don't leave me"

Nora laughed hysterically as Rosalyn willed Jermaine to open his eyes. Tears feel down Rosalyn'sface as her anger skyrocketed, she could feel Althea taking over as rage and hate spreadthroughout her.

Nora stopped laughing when she saw Rosalyn's eyes turned blood red, she was about to take on adefensive stance but was too slow as Rosalyn was infront her within an instant, if she were humanshe wouldn't have seen her move and even with her wolf eyes she had only glimpsed her.

Rosalyn threw Nora across the room in a flash then in no time she was above her pounding her fistsinto Nora's face and body while scratching and clawing at her. She looked up and saw the chairJermaine was in earlier where they electrocuted him repeatedly, this caused Rosalyn's anger toescalate to another level. She picked Nora up by her neck and threw her in the chair then strappedher down with the intent of giving her a taste of her own medicine but Evans busted into the roomat that moment.

When Rosalyn saw him she smirked, Evans charged at her but he was unable to land a hit as Rosalyngrabbed a knife from the near by table and slit his throat in one swift movement then pulled hishead from his body and threw it on the ground where it rolled to the door way.

Getting rid of Evans Rosalyn saw Kevin standing at the door with a look of utmost terror on his facewhile his entire body shook. When he realized she saw him he turned and bolted down the hallway,Rosalyn would have gone after him if she hadn't Jermaine coughing, she ran back to him as sheheld him in her arms as he coughed up blood.

Moments later Lilly ran passed the door way, she had snuck outside earlier to get some herbs fromthe clearing that she could use to threat Jermaine and Rosalyn's wounds later, when she saw a hugeblack wolf with white stripes he was so beautiful she had wanted to touch his fur but then sheremembered she had snuck out and thought it was one of Evans men that she saw so she ran. Lillyknew that if she was caught she would be punished so she ran until she reached the mansion thensnuck in through the secret passage at the back of the house.

She was running so fast that she didn't see the blood trail in the hall way it was when she glimpsedEvans decapitated head at the door way she stopped and turned back to take a second glance.There she saw Jermaine in Rosalyn's arms bleeding out, she had grown attach to the lovely coupleas they were the only people who ever showed her kindness or gratitude, she wanted to help thembut was hesitant to let out her secret.

After a moment of contemplation Lilly decided to take a leap of faith. She rushed into the roomtowards the couple but Rosalyn snapped at her when she came too close, it was clear Rosalyn's wolfwas in control so Lilly approached cautiously.

"I can help him if you let me" she calmly told Rosalyn

"Please let me help or hell die” she coaxed moving closer

With a growl Rosalyn allowed Lilly to come towards them. Lilly walked over slowly then kneeledbeside Jermaine, she took the knife that's was on the ground and cut open her palm then wiped herblood across Jermaine's wound. The moment Lilly's blood entered Jermaine's wound he startedhealing and within a minute he was healed

"This is why Evans kidnapped me, because my blood can heal any wouldn't and nullify any poison aswell as other things. Since Jermaine was at deaths door it will take him some time to wake up buthe'll be fine" Lilly assured Rosalyn

After healing Jermaine Rosalyn filled Lilly in on what she missed, Lilly saw Nora on the chair batteredto a pulp and rejoiced internally. After making sure Rosalyn was ok she went to her lab and packedup all of her work, not leaving anything behind she cleared everything out along with all of Evans.money then took her leave from the place that was her prison for two years.

Rosalyn remained in the same position Lilly found her, still cradling an unconscious Jermaine. Shecould hear noise outside but ignored it, then she heard footsteps coming towards her; her bodytensed as she got ready to fight off whoever it is if they tried to attack her or Jermaine. She wasshocked to see Alessandro enter the room, he tried walking towards them but she snapped at himunconsciously, her protective instincts overriding everything else.

Out of the blue Kevin reappeared at the door with a gun in his hand, he smirked when he sawAlessandro thinking he could kill two birds with one stone after all he had nothing left to loose; hisson was dead and the rest of his family already hated him only thing he had left was his revengeand he would be damned if he didn't get it. Turning off the safety he pointed the gun at Alessandrothen said

"You took everything from me Rosalyn now it's time I return the favour" then pulled the triggerRosalyn saw Kevin fire at Alessandro and at a moment's notice she left Jermaine’s side to saveAlessandro, she had planned to push him out the way but the bullet hit her in the chest causing herto fall bringing Alessandro down with her.

"Alessandro I-im so sorry" she croaked

"Momma no no no please no you can't die you can't leave us"

It was then Rosalyn realized it was Xavier in control of Alessandro's body she was surprised as Xavierrarely took control

"I love you mi bambino but I don't think I can hold on when Jermaine wakes up tell him I love him"she replied as she felt her self slipping into darkness

Rosalyn’s breathing shallowed as she tried to hold on knowing full well what would happen toAlessandro if she died however the bullet was lodged closely to her heart and she knew her timewas limited

"Mom no!!!" She heard Xavier yelled as her eyes closed

The last thing she saw before falling unconscious was a blurred silhouette of a man resemblingmicheal entering the room.
