Chapter Forty Three 

Chapter Forty Three 

I took out my gun. This would only buy me time; I hid it properly at the back of my pants. 

I sprayed some water on my face as it seemed pale. 

He was here; I could feel it. I returned to the living space, but there was no one here. Maybe I was wrong; but then I felt the presence right behind me. I let out a scream, but his hands around my mouth muffled my cries. 

“Act stupid, and dear Daisy would pay for it.” He warned, and I gave a nod. He finally let me go, but not before slipping out the weapon from where I hid it. 

“I’ll hold onto this.” 

“Stay away from Daisy,” I warned him. 

“Why? Could it be because you are jealous?” 

“You disgust me. 

“I don’t think I do. I can read you, and I know you wanted to be in Daisy’s place; you wanted to abandon caution, norms and surrender to me, but you will never admit that.” 

“What do you want?” 

“Simple. You.” 

“You cannot have me, I am not a toy.” 

“If I can’t, then he shouldn’t either; perhaps I will kill you, just as you attempted to do to me.” 

He pointed the gun at me; he came forward till the cold metal grazed my nipple; even clothed, I felt completely vulnerable and exposed to him, 

“You won’t do it.” 

“You don’t know me at all.‘ 

He was a demon; he was dangerous, Thane had warned me, but I had trusted him. 

“Let’s start again Daemon. I will pretend like what happened never did; it will be just as it used to be.” I offered, of course it was only a ploy to deceive him and lead him into a trap.

Chapter Forty Three 

“Do you think I buy that?” he asked, retracting the gun. He emptied the bullets and let it fall to the ground. “I let you go now; even after the little trick you pulled, I won’t be this merciful next time.” 

**THANE’S POV** 

The knowledge of what the demon had done to her still haunted me. I made her a promise, one I would keep. 

I walked into the interrogation room. 

Daemon sat half naked on the chair, snarling at me; I could only smirk. 

“Don’t waste your time; that is no ordinary chain. It was designed to hold and confine unusual creatures and it seems like you aren’t an exception. 

“When I’m free, I will make dear Riley a widow.” 

“I am not very easy to kill either, so let’s talk reality. You know why you are here, gods; I have wanted this for a long time now, but Riley, she still believed you could be saved, but you fucked up big time, and now she wouldn’t mind me ending you.” 

“You can’t kill me.” 

“Not yet, but I wonder what the Cursed Weapon does to you.” 

I stabbed the cursed weapon into where his heart should be— assuming he had one, and he groaned out in pain. I took the weapon out, and black blood poured through the cut; unlike the others, it didn’t heal back 

“It doesn’t kill you, but the result isn’t that so bad, is it?” 

I stabbed him in the eye, twisting before pulling. 

“Stop,” he gasped. “What do you want?” 

“Nothing really. But you did make a mistake coming back into my pack after what you did to Riley.” 

Next I stabbed him in the lap.
