he said darkly. I gasped and suddenly I was brought back to the present, I opened my eyes, gasping for air. I was slumped against the wall, with my knees to my chest. I clutched at my heart as it beat sporadically. I looked up at Drake and he was staring desperately at me, he had his arms behind him as he leaned forward, straining against the shackles as if trying to get to me. “Jenna! What happened, are you alright?” he asked me desperately. I nodded weakly “I’m fine, I had another vision” I whispered. He went completely serious as he stared at me ‘what about? Past, present, or future?” he asked me through our bond.
‘past. It was when Garrison got the pills, this man was there, he invented the pills for Garrison, he had short brown hair, and was carrying a briefcase, he gave him the pills, but in exchange he wants-‘ I paused, staring Drake in the eyes, Drake cocked his head to the side, ‘what? What does he want?” he asked me.
‘Me’ I told quietly. Even from here, I could see the rage building up in his eyes. I knew this angered him more than anything else.
Chapter eighteen. (Drake’s P. O. V.)
Rage built up in me as I stared into Jenna’s frightened eyes, just the thought of that man she described getting close to her made my anger boil to the point of breaking these chains that bound me from the wall. My inner animal was already stronger from throwing those pills away, he growled inside me, rage in his mind too. I watched as Jenna sharply looked to her left, I heard faint footsteps a few seconds later coming toward us. I sat back against the wall and watched as Garrison came in with a man, Garrison was smiling wickedly, and so was the man, he was smiling at Jenna. I looked at Jenna to see a terrified look on her face; she closed her eyes and whimpered as he leaned down in front of her. It was him. “This is the girl you asked for Jay” Garrison said.
“yes, this is the girl” the man, Jay agreed darkly. I growled as he reached out his hand to touch her, pulling against the chains that bound me. “Drake, who is that?” Maria asked me.
“I don’t know, but he wants Jenna for something, Jenna had another vision, and he was in it” I said, never taking my eyes off of Jenna and the man. The man heard my growl and stood up, turning around to look at me. He walked over to me, smiling in a menacing way, that’s when I recognized him. I knew I recognized the name; Jay was one of the engineers who helped build the invisible shield to keep humans from knowing our existence. He was thrown off the island because he was working behind the head inventors back, making things to harm us. He told us that he would have revenge someday, and I guess that day was today. “well hello there Drake, it’s nice to see you again, I see you’ve found your mate, that’s a shame. It’s a good thing we gave you my pills, because what you are about to see would probably destroy your inner animal” he said menacingly. I growled “If you put one finger on her, I will rip you apart!” I shouted, pulling against the chains.
“Oh, I’m not going to put a finger on her, I am testing how good your strength is, under pain” he said, just as one of the guards came in with a whip. Now everyone growled. Laurence, Lamina and Maria were all growling. They unchained Jenna and set her in the middle of the floor, I pulled harder against the chains as the guard prepared to use that thing on her. She swung it in the air, and brought it down, slashing it across her back, pain coursed through me as well, but the pain of letting her be hurt, tears ran down my cheeks as she cried out in pain, my inner animal started getting stronger, and as he brought the whip down again, and she cried out, my inner animal got angrier, which made him stronger. I growled and pulled harder than before on the chains. He was about to bring the whip down again when I shifted and broke the chains that bound me, I jumped over Jenna and landed on the guard, ripping him to pieces. I turned around, only to be frozen completely; Jenna was in a choke hold, a knife to her throat. The one holding her was Jay, the knife was shaking as he held it to her throat “I’ll kill her, I promise I will” he said shakily, sweat dewing on his forehead. I shifted back to human form and looked Jenna in the eyes, I didn’t see a frightened or even scared look, her eyes had gone white and she looked pissed. I looked back up at Jay in confusion and then something happened, as if a shockwave went through the entire place, she sent Jay flying across the room, he hit the wall and went limp. Jenna’s ripped and tattered clothing was flying out around her, and her hair was flying up behind her as if wind was blowing it. She was floating in the air, and when she spoke her voice echoed her own “my friends, you are free” she said kindly to the other prisoners, in a voice that didn’t sound like her own. Suddenly, all the chains that bound the prisoners vanished, then she set her gaze upon Garrison, and it became full of anger “Garrison Lane Hothorn, you, however, are not free! You have abused your powers, and abused your right to be called a shifter; therefore, I shall take away your right. And you will be human again” her voice was full of anger, up until the last part, then her voice was soft and a smile touched her lips. suddenly, Garrisons eyes changed color and were no longer brown, but dark grass green, and his hair changed to brown instead of grey and black, he fell on his knees in front of Jenna and put his hands together as if in prayer “oh thank you so much! I have been trapped in those animals for years! I thank you!” he said, the menacing voice replaced with a grateful and caring one. She nodded and gestured for him to go “be free my child, there is a boat waiting to take you to the nearest island, but do not worry, it is a populated island with your own kind” she assured him. He nodded, got up, and ran out of the cave entrance. I watched as Jenna closed her eyes, she fell on the floor, kneeling on one knee with her hand on the floor. I ran to her side, lifting her head to see that her eyes were back to their bright green color. “Drake, tell me I wasn’t dreaming” she whispered in disbelief. I shook my head “you weren’t dreaming” I said truthfully. She nodded “I thought so” she said quietly. I looked around with a smile as everyone got up, brushing themselves off “its over, you did it” I told her. She started laughing, it was a laugh of relief, everyone looked at each other, even the guards were not guards anymore, Garrison had them mind controlled. First one, then another, then all of them, all started cheering “Jenna has done it!” they cheered. I pulled Jenna into a long and deep kiss, stopping her mid laugh. She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me passionately back, she pulled away with a smile “we did it” she whispered.
“no, you did it” I said to her.
Epilog. (Jenna’s P.O.V.)
I sat staring at my little newborn as she wriggled around in my arms; I looked up at Drake who smiled sadly. “We have to let her go, her safety is the most important thing right now, don’t worry though, she will understand” he assured. I looked back down at Nina with tears in my eyes as I stroked her little head. Drake wrapped his arms around me as we walked toward the plain that would take my baby away from me. “Jenna, I love you, and I would never lie to you. We will get her back as soon as the danger has passed, I promise, but with the Jaikoren running around out here, we can’t take a chance” he said softly, kissing my forehead. As we entered the plane, I let out a sob; I just couldn’t handle losing my baby as so young. I sat down in the seat beside Drake, who wrapped his arm around my waist as I leaned on his chest. Nina started crying and I comforted her with soothing words, trying to comfort myself too. I stared into her little eyes and she smiled at me for the first time. Maria, Laurence and William sat across from us, Maria had tears in her eyes too as she watched me with the baby “I love you so much Nina, never forget that” I told her softly. Now we have to fight the battle of Jaikoren, in order to keep my daughter safe.
The end.
