Chapter 12
I remembered that night, that I had called Darren for help, and he had yelled at me in anger. Three men had entered the house in the dark of the night. They didn’t break in;Tamara had opened the door for them to enter easily.
When I finally came back to consciousness, I found myself tied down to a table in the bathroom. “Well, well, glad to have you back with us.” Tamara’s vile voice sang as I woke up.
“Wha… what? What is going on?” I asked in confusion, glancing around the bathroom.
She gave me a wicked smile.
“Oh my, how miserable you have become.” She taunted, “Your mate wants nothing to do with you for something that you’re totally innocent of.”
I furrowed my eyebrows as I wondered what she was talking about.
“Oh yes, I killed his mother. I had his key as he kept spending time with me, so it was easy for me to enter your home and tamper with her medication.” She admitted with a smirk.
I gasped in horror. All these while, she had been the one responsible for Darren’s mother’s death, and I was blamed for overdosing her.
“It was so easy for me to turn him against you. So easy, as he loves me, and now, he hates you so much that he wishes you were dead.” She laughed mockingly.
I turned my gaze from her as tears stung my eyes. All these months, I had been suffering because of her.
“You’re pregnant for him, right? You’re carrying his child.” She said, collecting a sharp knife from one of the men that stood there.
My breathing sped up, and fear gripped me.
“He is going to be a father soon. But he doesn’t even want anything to do with you.” She mocked. “So why don’t we grant him his wish and get rid of you?”
I panicked, and began struggling to get out of the ropes, but they were too tight.
After struggling fruitlessly for some minutes, I finally gave up and began sobbing.
“Please, please, don’t do this.” I pleaded, “What do you want? Do you want Darren for yourself, is that what this is about? Then you can have him, I’ll go far away from here with my child. Please!” I sobbed.
She sneered at me with intense hatred in her eyes.
“You think I want Darren? Do you think I’m doing all this because I’m in love with Darren?” She spat in disgust.
I became confused, then what was this about?
“Then why?” I whispered softly, my voice shaking.
Tamara gave me a chilling smile that sent shivers down my smile.
“Darren doesn’t even know who I am. We had a slight connection several years ago, but that was it. He thinks we were in love, but I moved on, I found my mate!”

I was still confused, and it was written all over my face. Tamara laughed bitterly.
“He thinks he saved me, he thinks he rescued me from the Bloodhounds. He thinks he’s my hero” She growled out.
“He doesn’t know that he’s the villain of my life. He led his people to kill my family. My father was the leader of the Bloodhounds, my mate was his right hand man, and he killed them both!” She shrieked in anger.
My mouth gaped open, and goosebumps erupted all over my body as I realized–I’m never getting out of there alive.
She cackled maniacally. “He has a mate and is about to have a child! But he killed my father and my mate, my family!” She yelled.
“I want him to feel the pain of losing the people you love, but I’ll make it a million times more than what I had to go through!”
Then she took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
“It’s so ironic huh? I poisoned his mother’s medications with the drugs that he killed my family for, and now… well I won’t spoil the surprise for you.”
Without any warning, she plunged the dagger into my stomach.
I screamed as the dagger tore through me. Tamara didn’t bother gagging me to stop me from screaming because the house was in a secluded area of the pack.
I wanted the pain to end, but I couldn’t escape it. I watched as she took out my baby with her bare hands, then she stuffed a bag of drugs inside me, then she slowly stitched me back. I fainted several times, but she kept waking me up.
“No Julia, I want you to stay awake for this,” she taunted. “I want you to feel every moment, every second of this, just like I did when Darren took everything from me.”
“Wake up, Julia. Sleep is for the weak. I want you to feel every second of your impending death. Then when I’m done with you, I’ll take care of Darren next!”
Tamara tortured me for three days before she finally started dismembering me.
Oh Darren, if only you knew the devil you were courting…
