All Chapters of His Bane: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“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

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

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

Marissa’s P.O.VI’ve been running and running for days now. The monsters are everywhere. Exhaustion is creeping in like a parasite, eating me up minute by minute. I knew it would be hard but I never anticipated it’ll be this hard, but I was still thankful. Thankful that I did not leave before I got my powers because I would’ve been dead an hour after I left the pack house gardens. On that fateful day I left the pack, I went in the opposite direction than what Amelia proposed, knowing that she could never have my best interest at heart but instead, I fell into her trap. She intentionally told me to go the other way knowing I wouldn’t. The thought made me clench my teeth as I ran. It’s on sight whenever I see her again.I could not even tell what it was that was chasing me but it was fast, and I was too. I hadn’t even noticed that I had superspeed amongst all other powers which was very strange as it was not one of the powers I should have but it came in handy and I was so gratef

Marissa’s P.O.VIt’s been 7 days now in this hell of a place. It was a maze that had no way out. I have fought so many creatures, most of which I believed only existed in books and fairytales. A giant gorilla, a goblin, a werewolf, and even a fairy. The wind, the sky, the trees, and pain had become the new normal for me. It was so crazy that I could not remember the last time I rested for an hour. The exhaustion was creeping up on me fast but was not as fast as the creatures that all seemed to find me like I was a magnet that attracted them to me. I was hurt, tired, angry, annoyed and scared all at the same time. A part of me hoped to be saved by Dario but I also knew deep down that it would take massive effort, and was almost impossible to find me in this maze. I had levitated as high as I could about a day ago to see through the forest, on the best route to take in order to escape this hell but all I saw were trees and trees for miles and miles away. The sight brought tears
