Lord , take me now..
Anna screamed in her head as the Maniac kept punching her side. She bit down hard on her lips to stop herself from giving him the satisfaction of hearing her scream.
Whereas, in the room where Ray was he couldn't help but feel on edge. Ritchie kept turning and twisting. His eyes changing from gold to grey and back to gold.
"What's happening, Ray? You look antsy." Darius asked feeling on edge
"It's Anna. She's being hurt." He hissed, anger swelling in his heart. Ritchie itched and itched to take over as Ray tried building blocks in his mind to keep Ritchie away from him, but the wolf wasn't having it.
Taking over, Ritchie appeared in full force storming out the room into the woods. He kept running deeper and deeper till he got to the human woods border. He wanted to go further but he perceived the hunters lurking around the woods, waiting on whichever werewolf would be so unlucky.
Humphing, he turned back around letting Ray take over but not turning back to his human form. He still felt horrible, like his heart was being ripped out in shreds. He was really going to kill his father, if not for anything but for touching his mate.
'Not now' Ray whispered in response to that thought, but he snarled at him, shutting him up.
"Mmm, I really am good at creating art works. Look how pretty you are covered in blood." Adam said walking round where she hung taking a look at her body.. or what was left of it.
Anna swore in her spirit to cut off his tongue whenever the gods give her the chance to. She barely felt her heart beat in her chest, her head aching so bad her eyes felt really heavy. But the rest of her body..well, she couldn't say anything about it yet. All she felt was liquid flowing slowly from her wounds to the floor.
She prayed hard as Adam came closer to her front as a shit eating grin played across his face. He placed his palm under her chin, lifting her head almost gently to make her look at him.
"Mmhm, I'd like to know what he thinks when he sees how pretty I made you look, and when he rejects you, you shouldn't worry much. I'd be there with open arms, welcoming you to the dark side." He said as his eyes danced across her face, satisfaction glinting in his eyes.
She looked directly into his eye, almost shivering seeing how dead it looked.
Fucker really thought she was going to give in.
"Even if he rejects me, I'd rather die than run into those measley arms of yours" she said as she spat on his face. She watched his face contort into a very hideous animalistic frown.
"What the fuck did you just do?!?!?! Do you know who I am?!" He grabbed her by the neck squeezing quite hard. Anna succumbed to the pain as her eyes threatened to roll backwards.
'Finally, an answered prayer '
"I will so deal with you, Annabeth, so bad that you'd wish you were dead. You just wait." He snapped his eyes almost turning golden.
Just like Rays'
He released her neck, taking out a gun from beneath his shirt.
"Sleep tight until then." He whispered in her ears, hitting the back of her head with the guns butt. She smiled as she saw the black spots she had become familiar with cloud her sight as she welcomed them with open arms.

"But we have to do something!!" Ray screamed at Lily gripping his head and pacing about the office.
"We will do something, you dimwit. And do not scold me " She snapped at him, green sparks flashing in her eyes for a second. Ray turned to her ready to snap but seeing how angry she was he turned back to the window, swallowing his retort.
"Any time or day from now, we'd get a signal. We haven't gotten any yet which means the witch is no longer available and that his workforce is low. Sooner or later they'd find out and when they do the alarm wound be triggered, without their knowledge. She would be found, Raymond, I promise you." Lily said picking her sack and leaving the room.
"You should eat something, Ray." Sofia said coming up behind Ray and placing an arm on his shoulder.
"We are not hungry" Ritchie replied, making Sofia shudder, but she came forward.
" You need to be alive and strong to find her and fight for her, you and Ray. And starving isn't the best route. Look." She said raising the meal to his eye level.
"I put a lot of marinated meat and vegetables. More than enough to make you both really strong. If you can keep eating for at least three days, I'm pretty sure you'd be ready and firm enough to defend her. Please Ritchie" She pleaded, giving him doe eyes.
She saw his eyes soften at her action, indicating that Ritchie had retracted. It made her feel more than accomplished. "Come sit." She motioned to the seat behind her placing the plate on the table.
Ray sighed sitting on the seat she drew out. He knew she was right, if he wasn't going to sleep, he might as well eat. He can't be found lacking when it's time to get her. Looking down at the food, he picked one of the pieces of meat as he bit into it. He chewed with his eyes closed as he moaned with delight.
"Thank you, Sofia." He said looking up to her, appreciation feeling his eyes.
"It's okay; we are family, remember." She said patting his hand, giving him a soft gaze.
He nodded his head in response and continued digging into the delicacy before him.
Atleast he had made one good decision today.

"Updates, Idris!!!!" The woman scolded pacing about her office.
"Adam hit her today, Ma'am. Really hard. She lost consciousness though, but she didn't let him see her cry. She hid it perfectly and even spat on his face." The man said, half- chuckling.
"So he didn't succeed in breaking her?" The woman asked, her heart rate increasing by the second.
"No ma'am, he didn't."
"Oh! Thank the gods" She said, releasing a sigh of relief. She took up her phone in her hand, checking the time she turned to the man before her.
"Go release the clue."
