His Bane James
“She doesn’t want me anymore”. Dario said to James as he paced around in his office. He had tried to talk to her severally since the day before but she was not having it. His main fear now was that she would reject him, and he knew very well that he wouldn’t be able to survive it especially with the guilt eating away at his heart.“It’s only normal that she’s mad at you. I also would not speak to you for even a year. You deserve it”. James answered clearly not sugarcoating anything. He himself was frustrated at the way his best friend handled issues with his mate. “Firstly, you locked her up as soon as you found her. Not long after she started coming out properly, you imprisoned her, knowing fully well that she had been imprisoned for most of her life. She was painfully transitioning into an elf, but you let her through it alone. Yes,you went to her every day but does she know that? No. Did you going there everyday help her? No. Give me one reason why she should even look at you”.
His Bane Powers
With every second that passed, Marissa discovers a new power. It was endless, and as much as it empowered her, it scared her. “Whoa!”. She exclaimed as a glass shattered just because she sneezed hard. It was obvious that the glass broke because of her and it felt so great that she was so powerful but then, she thought of the downsides. “I could hurt innocent people if I don’t master them all”. She thought to herself as she but her finger thinking about just how long it would take to learn them all. She had discovered that she could literally levitate and that the dream was real, she had telekinesis, she had super strength, she could almost tell what a person was thinking. “Then hurt them”. The voice of the creature came again, standing beside her bed. She still couldn’t see his face as he wore black everywhere with only his eyes showing but she could tell that he was smiling, and she knew it was a sinister one. “Wait! Did I just hear your voice in my head?”. She asks in utter di
His Bane Flashback
As Marissa left the dining room, her only thought was: “I’ll be out of here soon”.She had already drawn a map of the pack using her heightened senses, photographic memory and using the creature whose specialty was to hide in the shadows. The art of escaping was nothing new to her as she had attempted to escape her previous captors severally but was always caught and tortured till she was near death. FlashbackEverytime they were released to take a bath was the only time Marissa could see a place different from her cell. However, they never saw the sun or knew what fresh air felt like but she knew that air was at least coming from somewhere or else, they wouldn’t be able to survive, and she scanned. Acting like she was falling from exhaustion but instead she was just scanning. The falling earned her some hits by the guards.“Stand up you weakling”. They ordered hitting her with the back of their guns. It hurt like her head was smashed into the wall but she continued and fell again
His Bane Unsuccessful Escape
“Put me down this instant!”. Marissa yelled as Dario carried her over his shoulders back into the house. She used her powers on him but they all proved ineffective. “Stop there!”. She spoke to a random guard, just to see if her powers still worked, and the guard immediately stopped.“Why isn’t it working on him then?”. She asks herself as the struggled and struggled to no avail. She was so angry that she could burst from just how angry she was in this moment. She had drawn a map a while ago of the pack house as she had planned to escape a long time ago but changed her mind as Claire and Dario began to grow on her. However, after that he locked her up in the dungeons, she realized that he didn’t really care for her and would lock her up again if his people ask it. She knew she had never been loved before and something deep inside of her craved love, craved Dario, craved a sister like Claire but staying here felt like she was still imprisoned but not fully and freedom was all she h
His Bane The Breakup
“Why won’t you understand that I can’t live without you?!”. Dario yelled as Marissa threw a tantrum about leaving the pack. “Please”. He pleaded, his voice low and shaky this time. He was in a dilemma that he could not solve on his own. It felt like she always brought out the worst side of the beast and the man in him. He had never expected that he would have to keep her behind any closed door against her will, especially after the guilt he felt the last time. However, the mate he had been waiting on for over a century wants to leave him for good, which was equal to rejecting him and the thought drove him mad. “Can you hear how selfish that sounds? Have you ever asked me about what I want?”. Marissa yelled back from behind the door, her outburst causing an electric shock through the door that zapped himHissing, he stepped away from the door with a sigh. “Please promise me that we’ll talk it out when I open the door, or I swear Marissa, I’ll lock it back until you’re calm”. He r
His Bane Accepting Amelia’s Help
Claire had been torn between the two mates who consistently were at each other’s throats, Dario and Marissa. Since Marissa was locked again, Dario had taken it upon himself to bring her to the dining hall himself. Everytime he did, both parties never said a word to each other, and as much as Dario loved to pretend it didn’t hurt, it did. It hurt so bad that his heart physically hurt. All he wanted to do was love her but apparently he sucked at being a lover and had only himself to blame. Everytime he saw her, he itched to touch her. Prayed to hug her but he knew better than to try.She would electrocute his senses away.He had tried before and learnt his lesson. This was not only hard for Dario as Marissa’s hormones went haywire everytime she laid eyes on him. Since she got her powers, Dario has consistently looked like a mouthwatering meal she would love to devour. Everytime his lips moved, she wondered what it could do to her down south. No matter how much she hated him, she c
His Bane Bloodied Hands
His ruffled hair, messy shirt and endless sighing had the whole council so frustrated. “Your Highness”. The head of the council skeptically calls out, knowing that Dario was not hearing anything they were talking about. From the way he sighed, to the distant look in his eyes. Anyone could tell that he was present but also not present at the meeting. He had somehow developed anxiety from knowing that Marissa was going to leave. Deep inside of him, he knew he couldn’t keep her here against her will for long. She was strong now and could get away if she wanted to, he knew that very well. “Let’s hold this meeting at a later date”. Dario orders. Standing up and walking away leaving everyone confused but too scared to alter or ask why. He had been on edge recently, and everyone with eyes could see that he was now hot and cold at the same time. No one could predict his mood so they chose to stay clear. Just yesterday, he ordered some guards to patrol around the border and report any
His Bane Trusting Amelia
Somewhere inside Marissa, she knew that trusting Amelia was not the right thing to do but she also knew that Amelia wanted her gone and would definitely help her escape. “Even if she does something to harm me along the way, I’ll overcome it. I can just fight it off”. She said to the creature that was slowly becoming her closest companion. She couldn’t tell Claire that she was leaving because she didn’t want to see her cry, as her tears may move to her to changing her mind. She would miss Claire so bad and couldn’t even deny that. Not just Claire, but the room, the food, the companionship she didn’t have even if it wasn’t a great one from everyone. Lastly, she would miss Dario. As crazy as that sounded, she knew she would miss him. Today was the day she had to meet Amelia in the garden at noon and she was ready. Marissa had packed lightly and with the help of the creature, she knew what and what to pack for the journey ahead. She knew she was taking a big risk not having any mon
