And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie) novel Chapter 244

Shock filled me.

He was here… but he was at the mercy of that cold-hearted bitch!

No one ever tells you what it feels like to watch the person you love to be tormented. To be held captive and forced into the will of another. No one tells you how much your heart can shatter from just one look.

He was out there… at their mercy, and here I was behind cold walls.

It wasn't fair to think he was going through this alone out there, and I was stuck here. For weeks I had been worried about it. Wondering where he was and if he was okay.

Shit, if he was even alive.

He even was forced to miss the birth of his children because of them.

As if a damn broke, I lost all clarity for a moment. Priscilla's mumbled words went unheard as I slowly turned to them and held out a sleeping Castor, who was still in my arms. "Take her."

Priscilla didn't hesitate to take the child, and as she did, she nodded at me in understanding. She knew already what I was going to do, and she also knew there was no stopping me.

I had promised to tear them apart if they hurt Damian, and that offer still stood. Killing Allison, though… well, was going to be for pure pleasure.

I couldn't wait to watch her blood run from my lips as I tore out her throat.

I could feel the purring satisfaction of the darkness under my skin as I thought of the various ways to make that woman suffer. To make her blood run upon the pack's ground as a river with no end.

I would kill anyone who hurt my mates, and there would be no way to stop me.

"Ivy, what are you doing?" Mother cried with a panicked look in her eyes as she watched me step closer to the door.

I didn't bother to answer her, though.

There was no point when she already told me what she thought.

With my children taken care of, I glanced towards the cameras once more to see Kara taking care of another set of wolves who had surrounded her. They wouldn't get off easy. None of them would.

Pushing the button on the wall, the door opened, and a panicked cry from my mother escaped her lips. "Ivy! What are you doing?! Get back in here. Have you lost your mind?"
