didn't get the reaction he wanted he sighed, "You still don't remember? You're a little slow aren't you...or is it just the smell getting to your head? Don't worry, when you're in here for long enough you'll get used to it."

He circled the chair and stopped behind me, slightly bending over my shoulder. "It's a real shame you didn't come when we first offered, things could have turned out differently. I was disappointed when I heard that."

"W-what?" He placed his hand over my mouth and shushed me, "And then you hurt my Julianna. It's a shame, I was embarrassed when I left her, but I got her back. I meant to get my revenge on Cole without hurting you but... I realized it'd hurt him the most if I took you."

"I'm sorry that it had to be this way and I feel a little bit saddened because I think I understand. You're much more powerful than he's letting it out to be. Cole's brainwashing you and all because he wants to keep you to himself."

His voice changed into a lower tone and he needed closer to my ear, "We'll just have to start you over from scratch. Don't worry, I'll make you forget everything."

I shook my head, I tried to scream no but it muffled against his hand. My eyes were blurring up from more tears...I had just finally remembered everything. I went through all of that, and if I just forgot it, it would all be for nothing. That could not happen.

He snickered and walked in front of me before letting go of my mouth. "Then after that, I'll figure out exactly what you are. You were so powerful that day... It was almost beautiful. You don't need to be scared because you'll be on the good side then... You won't have to be a monster anymore. And when we get rid of Cole and the rest of his blood-lusting family, you'll be completely free. We all will, and we can rule this world together. We'll finally be able to sit at the throne."

His eyes widened and he grabbed both my hands, "There's no need for us to live on a leash for the rest of our lives. Come on Isabella, what do you say? We can do this the easy way-"

I cut him off, "You're just like how he said you were."

His face grew annoyed and he scoffed, "And how's that?"

"You act like a dog."

He dropped my hands and stood up, "What...?"

"You couldn't even protect one person... And you want to sit on the throne and rule everyone. You're more power-hungry than any of them. You want me to wag my tail and beg you to save me from what...? You call me a monster and say I'm brainwashed... I know what I am. I'm the same thing as Cole aren't I? There's no we... You're just going to kill me off when your plan succeeds, I'm not going to fall for that."

He clenched his jaw, his eyes were completely black. He slapped my face, his claws dragging against my skin, making me bleed. "I should've known you were too far gone. I wasn't planning on hurting you but... It seems like you won't listen no matter what I say. You're really leaving me with no choice."

Just as he said that a tall guy appeared before him, his head lowered towards him. He had bandages all over his body and his clothes were soaked in blood. Connor leaned in close to him and looked at me,

"Strip her." He said, making my eyes widen, "I want you to break her down completely until she can't run that filthy mouth of hers. Break her till she forgets even her first name and if she looked at herself in the mirror, she wouldn't recognize whose body it was."

He started walking out the room but before he left he paused, "And don't kill her, I want to watch his face when he realizes he can barely recognize her... And she doesn't remember who he is."

When he walked out of the room and shut the door, I could practically feel the blood lust seeping from the man. He cracked his neck and smiled at me. I felt a shiver run down my spine as he came towards me and I could feel my heart speeding up.

He dragged a knife down my clothes and tore them off of me. When I was completely bare, he took a piece of cloth and tied it around my mouth, muffling any sound that came out.

"We're going to have a fun time." He said grinning at me, "Don't worry, I'm going to make you look really pretty."
