Chapter Twenty-One: Torture
I found them, I tell Maya.
Them? She echoes, her voice worried.
Yeah, there are three of them, the men in the corner, I say looking over at her. She spots the three men and throws me a nervous glance.
Start getting wolves out of here, one at a time though, I don't want them to get suspicious, I warn her and she nods.
I watch as the building slowly starts to empty. The three men seem to be growing more nervous as fewer wolves remain.
They know what we're doing, Ira growls quickly and I jump to my feet.
"Everybody out!" I yell, my voice urgent enough to send everyone running immediately.
The three men look at me and try to run but Maya has her M16 aimed at them before they even take one step. They pause with wide eyes and I can hear their hearts pounding.
"Who are you?" I growl in my Alpha voice. I can feel Ira trying to take over but I hold her back. Not yet, I think to myself.
The men struggle to resist, and I can tell they want to submit. I stalk forward until I am right in front of one of the men.
"Who are you?" Ira's voice comes through, making him tremble in fear.
He shakes his head and his face screws up in pain. I wrap my hand around his throat and lift his body off the ground.
He claws at my hand but even the blood running down my arm doesn't make me loosen my grip. The other men move towards me but Maya cocks her gun and they freeze.
"Who the hell are you?" I growl, more forcefully this time.
"His name is Alex, he is Charlie, and I am Max just let him go! Please," one of the men says quickly and I release his neck. He drops to the ground, clutching at his neck and gasping for air.
I see bruises in the shape of my fingers and smirk widely.
"Why the hell are you in my pack?" I growl and he visibly swallows.
"Why?" I snarl as he stays quiet.
"He'll kill us if we tell you," he hisses and I feel my canines sharpen, cutting into my lip.
"I will kill you no matter what, but if you tell me, I'll make your death quicker," I growl with a sadistic grin.
"He will know, he has eyes everywhere," one mutters.
"Who is he?" I ask but they stay quiet and continue glancing around in fear.
"Maya, let's take them to the forest," I tell her and she nods.
Derek is good at this stuff, I'll tell him to come as well, she tells me and I nod.
Tell him to bring some rope and weapons too, I add.
Yes Alpha.
"Let's go," I growl and grab one by his shirt, shoving him in front of me.
I kick the one on the ground, Alex, and he jumps to his feet.
"Go," I growl lowly and he immediately moves forward along with the other two. Maya and I direct them deep into the forest, Derek appearing with a black backpack on the way.
We keep moving until we reach a small clearing. It is not long until the sun sets, the harsh light enhancing and dramatizing every feature of the forest.
"Stop," I tell them and see them start to sweat as Derek hands me a massive bundle of rope.
I wrap one end around Alex's hands and tie it tightly. I pull him until he is standing next to a tree and Derek takes the bundle of rope.
I quickly scale the tree and he tosses it up to me. I wrap the rope around the trunk of the tree before pulling Alex up so that his feet are inches off the ground.
I do the same to the other two. They are strategically placed so that they can easily look at each other.
"Do you happen to have a knife in that bag Derek?" I ask and he opens it up to reveal dozens of weapons, most of them are knives.
I grab one with a long, thin blade and walk up to Alex.
"You were a building weren't you? You were Garren's designer. Now that would explain how a security camera and recording device ended up in Shade's bedroom. Why did you put it there?" I ask, putting the blade up against his neck.
"Haven't you figured it out by now? I thought the badass Alpha Silver knew everything?" He laughs and in less than a second I have my knife dragging across his cheek, drawing a bright red line from his ear to the corner of his lip.
He hisses in pain and jerks his face away from me.
"I know exactly why you put it there, I just want to hear you confess so I can execute a punishment for it," I explain with a smirk.
"Well do you know who sent us?"
"I don't have a name but I have a pretty good idea of who you three are working for," I say, slowly moving my blade down to his stomach.
"Can you give me a name or place?" I ask and he shakes head firmly.
"Very well," I sigh and place the tip of my knife against his stomach.
I watch as he braces himself before throwing the dagger across the clearing. It lands in the man, Charlie's, stomach and he howls in pain.
Alex's eyes are wide in shock and he looks at me in fear.
"If you do not answer my questions, I will hurt one of your friends, do you understand?" I ask and he spits at me.
I feel something inside of me snap and Ira takes over immediately. I wipe my face off before letting my fist crack across his mouth.
His head snaps to the side and I hear his jaw crack. He turns back to face me, his jaw slightly crooked and blood covering half of his face.
It dribbles out of his mouth and from his busted lip. He spits a broken tooth onto the ground, gritting his teeth against the pain.
"Who are you working for?" I ask again, walking over to pull the knife from Charlie's stomach.
"Go to hell," he growls and I shrug instead of pulling out the knife, I yank it so that intestines start spilling out of the man's abdomen.
He howls, tears rolling down his cheeks and I watch Alex's jaw clench. I look at him expectantly but he shakes his head firmly.
I throw the knife again and it goes through Max's ear, pinning it to the tree behind him. He yelps in pain and tries to move, only to rip half of his ear of in an attempt to free it.
He yells out again and I snatch the knife from the tree. He flinches when my hand brushes against his shoulder.
"I'm going to start cutting fingers off if you don't start talking Alex," I warn and he gulps.
"I'm not going to tell you anything," he growls out, but I can see the pain and regret in his eyes almost immediately.
"Let's see if you still feel that way after your buddies here start begging you to tell me. Start screaming for you to stop the pain," I snarl and his face begins to fall.
I turn back to Max and see him shaking violently. His eyes are wide with fear as I nod for Derek to lower his body.
He does as I say, quickly moving to restrain his feet once they touch the ground. I reach for his hands, grabbing one of his fingers.
He screams for me to stop and tries to fight back but Derek has him securely pinned against the tree. I press the blade of the knife at the base of his finger, not hard enough to cut him, but enough to make him panic.
"Alex tell her! Please tell her!" He screams. Alex looks at him with regret before shaking his head.
"You asshole! I can't believe I ever trusted-" He yells but his words turn into a howl of agony as I press my knife through his finger.
I pick up the finger with my knife and wave it in front of Alex's face.
"This is your fault," I tell him with a growl. His jaw is clenched tightly and his breathing is ragged.
I put the finger in the pocket of his jeans and turn back to see Derek pulling Max's rope. He pulls him up until he is about a foot of the ground before securing the rope again.
"Well, I hope you three have a lovely night. I will see you bright and early tomorrow morning to see if you are going to be a bit more cooperative," I say with a fake smile and start walking back towards the pack.
"You're going to leave us here?" Charlie shouts, blood dribbling out of the corners of his mouth.
"Yes, and you guys should be careful. There are lots of wild animals out here." I smirk.
"Wild animals?" Max echoes. His hand is covered in blood that runs down his arms and drops onto his face. His face is twisted in pain and so is Charlie's, Alex however is just angry.
"Oh yeah, foxes, coyotes, badgers, birds, rats, and lots of other animals that love to feed on bleeding bodies that can't run," I tell them, a sick grin plastered across my face.
Their faces are drained of blood by the time I finish talking and I leave, a triumphant smirk on my lips.
************
"I don't think you are going to want to see this Maya," I tell her and she nods in understanding.
She leaves to run warrior training and I turn to Derek.
"Let's go," I say and we start walking out into the forest. I take a deep breath before stepping into the clearing.
The three men are all in horrible shape, claw and teeth marks cover their bodies. Charlie seems to be on the brink of death, his face pale and body weak.
Max has blood covering his arms and head, the place where his missing finger was is now torn to shreds. Small scratches and bite marks surround the remnant of his ear and his head rests against the tree behind him.
Even Alex suffered from the animals, not only was his face bitten and clawed at because of his scratches and busted lip, he had to watch Charlie and Max be attacked and practically eaten alive.
He looks on the verge of collapse but his jaw is still set in defiance.
"Are you going to talk?" I ask him and he shakes his head again.
"Okay fine, I am going to come back tomorrow, after you have been sitting in the sun all day and get to deal with even more animals that will be attracted from the smell of your infected and rotting flesh," I spit and hear Charlie and Max start to sob.
"You are a twisted bitch," he growls and I raise an eyebrow at him.
"Derek go get me some hydrogen peroxide, let's see if I can get through to Alex here that I am not doing this just to get information, but that I am doing this for fun," I snarl in Ira's voice. All of their faces become filled with fear as they realize that there is no limit to how much I am going to torture them.
Derek returns within five minutes wth three bottle of hydrogen peroxide. I take the first one and dump it on Alex's face, making him hiss in pain as the liquid touches his scratches.
I then take another bottle and pour it over Charlie's stomach, where his insides are spilling out and his scream echoes through the forest.
It is piercing, absolutely bone chilling and I can see Alex's resolve start to crumble. He winces pressing his ear against his arms in an attempt to stifle the screams.
When I move to Max, he flinched before I even pour the bottle. I grin at Alex and dump the liquid onto Max's hand and shredded ear making him howl and scream as Charlie did.
"There, now your wounds shouldn't get infected," I say and walk away from them again.
"Are we supposed to be grateful?" Alex growls after me and I stop.
"You should be grateful that I haven't castrated you all, but don't worry, I'm saving that for last. I still have one more thing planned that I think will have you begging to talk to me."
***********
The first thing I notice as I approach the clearing, is the smell. It has me covering my nose and making me screw up my face in disgust.
It smells of rotting flesh, like what happens when garbage has been sitting in the sun for too long.
I walk into the clearing and see that their conditions are even worse. Their bodies are nearly torn to pieces, Max is missing three more fingers, and Charlie's heartbeat is slow and faint.
Alex almost seems to be going insane. He looks dehydrated and there are black circles under his eyes, his breathing is ragged and he looks around wildly in panic.
"Hey Alex, you don't look too good. I could end the pain if you want? All you have to do is answer my questions," I say softly. He stares at me, fear and anger swimming in his gaze.
"No," he says firmly and sucks in a harsh breath.
"Fine, I will be right back," I say and disappear into the forest. I spot Hailey in the Main Clearing and grab her arm, dragging her through the forest.
Her heart is pounding in fear and I can hear her breathing quicken as we near the clearing. She gags, breathing through her mouth to keep from throwing up at the stench.
I lock my arm around her neck and put my knife at her throat as we walk into the clearing. She starts to sob and claw at my arms desperately.
"Alpha what are you doing?" She cries and I shake her.
"Shut up!" I growl and tears fall from her eyes onto my arms. Alex's eyes are wide and I can see him panic as he stares at Hailey.
"I heard you had a thing for Hailey here, that you had a serious crush on her. You seem to not care about these two assholes but I have a feeling you are going to care if I start torturing her," I snarl, moving my knife closer to her neck.
He jerks against the rope and I can see his eyes swirl black.
"Don't touch her!" He spits and I grin.
I press my blade into her arm and slowly start dragging it downwards. She screams in pain and Alex thrashes his legs around, growling curses at me.
"You mother fucking bitch! I'm going to kill you!" He screams.
I put the knife back at her throat and look at Alex warningly.
"One more chance to talk or she dies, and I am not going to slit her throat either. I'll cut her wrists so that she bleeds out, or just beat her to death, that would work too," I tell him and he yells in frustration.
Hailey sobs and tries to get away from me but I tighten my hold until she cries out in pain and stops moving.
"I don't believe you," he breathes out suddenly.
"Really?" I ask in disbelief.
"Yeah, I don't think you can kill a little girl from your own pack just to get some information," he says and I laugh coldly.
"You are sadly mistaken," I snarl before slicing my blade deeply across Hailey's wrist. She screams and clutches at her arm.
"No! Stop!" He yells and I move to slice her other wrist.
"Fine you win! Just please stop!" He whimpers and I pause.
"I'll tell you everything you want to know."
