2024-10-29 19:42:56POV Kitty
The rest of lunch was calm. I watched Sammy and Cash carefully and I decided that my inner voice was right. They made a mistake and didn't know what the Vampires were really doing. I was sure that Sammy had some clue but I knew that she tended to ignore things that she didn't want to deal with.
She had to know that humans were being kidnapped and used. The blood they were drinking didn't just appear out of nowhere. She probably just ignored that idea though. That didn't make it right but I knew my friend. She wasn't really evil, just lazy and scared.
After lunch, Nick took me in front of the Council. The room they were in was on the top floor of the building. It was large and meant to look imposing. I guess that it was but it just bothered me how much these Vampires tried to look important.
In the pack the Alpha and Beta and advisors met in a warm meeting room and welcomed anyone who had something they needed to say or any pro

The Nightmare No More Secrets
POV CraigAfter hearing that news from my brother, I was devastated. I didn't care about Nick. He was always a creep and him being a vamp wasn't surprising at all. I had caught him staring at Kitty on more than one occasion and it always made me worried. But the news about Cash and especially Sammy hit me hard. Sammy and I were never as close as she and Kitty were but we were still good friends. I trusted her completely. I had even tried to check in on the her and Cash after the Nightmare. I went to their house and found the bodies of her parents in bed together but she and Cash were no where to be found. I had passed this information along to Kitty who was saddened and worried. She wanted to go look for them but we had no idea where they would go or where to even start looking. I had also gone searching for our other friends. I found April's body in her living room with her parents beside her. It looked like they were hugging. L
The Nightmare Apartment
POV KittyNick helped me locate all the materials and supplied I would need for the 'blood oath' that very afternoon. Luckily we didn't need much. We had just gotten everything by dinner time and I was exhausted."Come on, let's eat and then get you to bed, love. We will meet the coven and do the oath in the morning." Nick ordered and I nodded.He guided me to a nearby elevator and back up to the top floor. I looked confused and he smiled."All the council members and their families live up here." he said."Your parents are on the council?" I asked and he nodded as we stepped out of the elevator and walked down the hallway.I remembered the man that had questioned me that looked like Nick and the woman beside him and understood."So you live with them?" I inquired, feeling nervous.I really didn't want to have to deal with his parents right then. Or ever honestly."No. I moved out to a nearby apartment w
The Nightmare Morning at the Apartment
Kitty POVI tried to calm myself as I showered but I was still worried. Would Nick force me to do things? How far was I willing to go to continue this charade? I couldn't have sex with him. I knew that much but would I kiss him? Could I do other things with him? If I did, would Craig ever forgive me? If I didn't, would I be able to proceed with my plan?I shuddered at the thought. He was disgusting and I didn't know if I could hide that from him. I frantically thought.{Use the sleeping spell. Do it now so he'll be asleep by the time you walk out. He won't question it this one time but you won't be able to use it again. He'll become suspicious if you do.} My inner voice guided.I mumbled the spell softly and pictured in my head Nick becoming drowsy and eventually falling asleep. I crossed my fingers that it worked as I got out of the shower and did my nightly routine. I scoffed as I pulled on the underware and shirt he gave to me
The Nightmare Idea
POV CraigI was wandering around the next morning in a stupor. I just didn't know what to do with myself without Kitty. If she was here with me, we would be having breakfast with our friends and then rushing off to train. I would be flirting with her, trying to get her to blush. Eventually, I would get to see that lovely red creep up her neck and cheeks and she would roll her eyes at me and tell me off with a giggle. It would make my whole morning better. I lived to hear that giggle. To see that smile. To feel the heat of her blush. I lived my life to make her happy.Now... I didn't know how to live. I knew that it wasn't healthy or right. It was probably toxic as hell but I didn't care. Kitty would always be my everything. She is my love, my best friend, my Queen and my mate. I don't know how to live without her in my life.Mom and Dad came to see Clay and I after the meeting last night. They tried to keep me hopeful and it worked for a while.
The Nightmare Oath Prep
POV KittyNick guided me down the hallway and into a nearby elevator. "What supplies do you need for the blood oath?" he asked as we got in.I thought for a few minutes."We will need black salt, lavender, and thyme. We will also need a bowl made out of metal, a clean towel, and a silver knife." I replied as we descended a few floors."What is the black salt for?"he demanded."It will protect all those involved in the spell and banish any hostile energy."I answered."And the lavender and thyme?" he continued as we walked down an almost empty hallway."The lavender is for protection and peace between whoever shares blood in the bowl and the thyme is for loyalty towards each other. We need a metal bowl and silver knife to ensure that they are clean and have no residue that would alter the spell. The towel is to clean the knife in between uses." I added before he could ask.Everything I was telling him was
The Nightmare First Punishment
POV KittyNick held my hand as we boarded an elevator. The worker carrying the supplies didn't follow us and I looked at Nick in confusion."There is a staff elevator. They aren't allowed to use this one. This one is only for the council members and families of the council members along with people important to the coven... like you and me." he smugly stated.Seriously? These vampires are so insecure. They need to constantly inflate their feelings of self importance. It's gross.Since we were alone, I dropped Nicks hand and took a step away from him. I didn't think he'd mind. I was wrong. So very wrong.He glared at me immediately and his eyes flashed red. He pressed the stop button on the elevator and then quickly backed me against a wall."What in the fuck do you think you are doing? Did I give you permission to let go of my hand? Did I tell you to step away from me?" he bellowed in my face as he caged me in with his arms.
The Nightmare Meeting the Family
POV KittyI gasped as Nick dropped my hand and shoved Locke into the wall. Nick put his forearm across Lockes neck, holding him there and growled."She needed to be taught a lesson and I did that. It's my right. She's mine!" Nick snarled."Did you need to be so rough with her? She's not like us. She won't heal in an hour, she's fragile. You shouldn't hurt your beloved." Locke spat back."Don't EVER question what I do with her. She is MY beloved. MINE!" Nick pushed harder against Lockes windpipe.Locke stared at me as I dropped my eyes to the floor and hurried to stand next to Nick. He may have dropped my hand but I didn't want to risk being too far away from him again. He was just looking for a reason to punish me. I knew that now.I felt Nick relax when he sensed me by his side."And would you look at that? She learned." he dropped Locke and turned to me with a smirk.He pinched my chin between his fingers and
The Nightmare Blood Oath
POV KittyNick let me go but sent me a warning look as I took the items."You may step away but remember who is in charge here and who owns you" he ordered.I bowed my head while my family glared at him. I set the bowl down on a nearby tray table.Thankfully my inner voice whispered words to me in a long forgotten language that only the witches could know.{This will tell them what you are doing and to play along. Your Grandmother and Aunts will understand at least. It's saying that the vampires don't know much about witches and believe that this oath will keep us from harming anyone that adds their blood to the bowl.} I carefully repeated the words as I cut my hand and dropped blood into the bowl. I glanced around the room to see confusion in my cousins and uncles but the rest of my family looked calmer. Nick and the other vampires looked enthralled. Nick bared his fangs when I cut my hand and they all took a

The Nightmare Epilogue
5 Years LaterPOV KittyI nervously paced the room for a moment as I thought back to all the little moments that brought me here. I smiled as I looked out the window. It was a bright November day. The air was just beginning to turn into the crisp fall air I loved but it was still warm and lovely. It was a perfect day.My grinned turned even bigger as I watched the pack set up the chairs and aisle in the back yard. They all worked together and soon everything looked to be done.The pack had grown so rapidly in these past few years. News got out about the pack that accepted everyone including Humans and soon Supernaturals and Humans were arriving at our doorstep in droves. The Supernatural Council even visited a few years ago. We were all nervous that they would order us to disband but we were pleasantly surprised to find that they were completely supportive of us.It didn't hurt that we h
The Nightmare Funeral
POV KittyThe next morning I awoke in Craig's arms. I looked up to see him already awake and staring at me with a smile."Creeper." I teased and he chuckled in his raspy morning voice."Only for you, Darlin'" he replied and I blushed and tried to hide my face."Aww. I love that blush and I work hard for it. Don't hide it from me." he teased back."Stttooopp" I whined blushing even more. "Alright, alright. Are you hungry, still tired? What do you want or need?" he asked seriously.That's when it hit me that today was my Grandmother's funeral. I could feel my face fall and Craig must have noticed it too."Don't do that, baby. I know that today will be difficult for you but I'll be by your side the entire time. So will the whole pack. You aren't alone anymore. You will never be alone again, alright?" he said as he looked deep into my eyes.I nodded and he stared at me for a second."I'm so sorry tha
The Nightmare After Party
POV CraigAfter the joining oath ended, Kitty rushed off to see her family. I watched her but didn't join them right away. I wanted her to have a bit of time with her family and I didn't want to suffocate her. In reality though, I wanted nothing more than to go pick her up and lock her in our room with me. My wolf and I were still trying to calm down from the recent events and it was taking all my willpower not to act like the caveman I really was. Clay and Luna came up to me and I smiled at their joined hands. Clay introduced me to Luna and I smiled warmly at her and shook her hand. She returned my smile. I looked back over to check on Kitty and Clay followed my gaze."Bro, is this killing you? I didn't think you'd let her leave your side. At least not yet." he teased.I scoffed but cringed internally knowing that he understood that this was torture for me."She seems so sweet and lovely." Luna chimed in with a calming voice and
The Nightmare Growing
POV KittyWhen we got back to the pack house. Colton ordered everyone to go rest and to regroup that evening for a huge dinner. "Will everyone have a bed?" I asked Craig and he smiled at me as he carried me up to our room."Darlin' we don't even use half of the rooms in this place. Everyone will be fine." he assured me.He walked into our room and I took a deep breath. "I can't believe that I'm finally here again. I've missed this place so much." I sighed as he set me on the bed."Sally helped me set your alter back up and I was sure to bring all your things back and put them away." Craig said as he opened the cupboard to show me the alter."Thank you so much! I was worried about my Mother's book." I smiled at him."Like I would leave something so important to you." he scoffed."I'm gonna take a shower. I feel gross." I stated as I stood up."Can I join you, Darlin'?" he asked.I looked u
The Nightmare Not In Time
POV CraigWe raced after Kitty into the hallway. The group that was originally there was gone but I didn't have time to think about it as Kitty ripped open the door on the left side of the hall. This was the door that Sally, Paul, Sammy, Zeke, Kitty's Grandmother and Sammy had gone in. The room looked similar to the one we found Nick in but it was all but destroyed. Drawers and shelves were scattered on the floor. We could hear crying and screaming. My blood chilled as we made our way to the sound. I tried to grab Kitty back when we saw what was happening but she was too fast and ran towards the chaos.In the center of the room stood Nick's mother. She was holding Kitty's Grandmother who was obviously dead. Saga and Sally were crying and screaming as Paul, Zeke and Sammy looked on in disbelief."She's dead. You are all next. I will take your power just as I've take hers." Nicks mother laughed.Kitty slipped in between her Aunts an
The Nightmare Just In Time
POV CraigI woke to the sound of a scream. Not just any scream, it was Kitty's scream. The sound had me jumping to my feet. As I stood, Clay looked over to me. He looked like he was just getting up as well. I looked around to see Neil standing looking in horror around the room. Abby and Tommy were still on the ground but I could see them breathing.I could hear a voice talking and even laughing faintly. Clay, Neil and I all exchanged a look and crept towards the noise. Just as we were about to turn the corner we heard a sound that I never want to hear again. It was Kitty screaming but it was such a raw and primal sound, full of heartbreak and fear but yet resilience and bravery too. It was bittersweet and made my eyes tear up.A bright light appeared and we rushed towards it. We were shocked to see that it was Kitty. She was literally radiating light. It washed over us and I felt a calmness in my soul. When it faded along with her scream, I was
The Nightmare Disbelief
POV KittyTrigger warningI watched in disbelief as Craig fell to the ground. Nick stood behind him with a syringe and an evil smile."What did you do?!!!" I screamed at him."Don't worry. I just knocked him out. He'll be fine. Well, he would be fine if I wasn't going to kill him." Nick smirked at me.Nick went to bend over Craig's body but Tommy to the chance to tackle him then. Nick fell with Tommy on top of him. Tommy stayed on him and began punching Nick in the face as hard as he could. Nick took a few good hits before he pushed Tommy off him and Tommy went flying into the wall. I watched as he slid to the ground, unconscious.I looked around the room to see all my friends on the ground. I was just glad that they were all alive still. I took a deep breath and glared at Nick."Now it's just you and I." Nick smirked and I narrowed my eyes at him."How did you do that?" I gestured toward
The Nightmare Doors
POV CraigI took a deep breath and gripped Kitty's hand as Clay swung the door open. We silently walked in and looked around. We looked to be in a giant storage area. There were cabinets and drawers all over the walls and lining down the middle. I turned to look at Kitty in confusion. She shrugged with just as much confusion in her eyes.Tommy looked towards us and opened his mouth to speak when we heard a shuffling sound. Neil gestured for us to stay quiet as we crept towards the noise silently. We crept around another corner to see Nick frantically searching through drawers and throwing stuff around. We watched as he grabbed something and nodded. He threw that object into a gym bag that was on the floor next to him. Then he continued searching.Clay and I glance at each other but then I saw Nick freeze in my peripheral vision. My eyes snapped to him and I watched in horror as he took a deep breath and smirked."Kitty." he said and turne
The Nightmare Fight
POV KittyI watched as Nick lost his last shred of sanity and humanity. I could literally see that light die in his eyes. I knew that I should be scared. I was standing in front of great evil. This vampire and his coven were powerful and worse than that, they had no morals or standards. They would rip us apart if we let them.I wasn't scared though. I felt as though everything in my life had led up to this moment. Every thing I had gone through in the woods, with the pack, losing my Dad, even losing my Mom. All of it led here. I knew then that this was what I was meant to do. This was bigger than Nick wanting me as his. This was about an evil council oppressing and harming the very Vampires they were supposed
