Dark Passion Play

Chapter 4

(Zena PoV)

I was running…

It was a completely black void, time nor space existed, only this darkness. I cold only hear my heart pounding in my ears and my footsteps thumping and echoing through the void.

I ran into five men standing with their arms crossed staring me down as I came to a stop. The one with the silver/hazel eyes lit a match, and tossed it into the air as it came down and smacked against the black floor. Where the match hit the floor, a blue flame erupted and spread in a ring surrounding me.
I spun around trying to find a way out of the starting inferno. I ran to the other side and was met with the small fire roaring to life. I ran back to the front and the same thing happened. It was being circled in and I ran between the two walls of fire.

I was trapped like a lab rat.

I could feel the heat begin to touch my skin and a light film of sweat covered my face. The fire reflected in their eyes as their lips started to move.

“Burn, Burn, Burn.” I watched their mouths moved, but no words came out. The fire seemed to enclose on my and the tips of my hair began to singe. The heat was unbearable; my skin was blistering slowly as the fire creeped up on me. The tall spiky haired man walked through the ring, completely impervious to the blaze.

He grabbed my shoulders and looked at me causing excruciating pain in my body. I screamed a silent painful scream as I stared into his eyes. I was hypnotized by the very fire in his own eyes.

“Burn with me.” I verbally heard as he let go when the fire engulfed my body. When I opened my eyes I briefly saw the beautiful features of his chiseled face before my eyes sizzled out of their sockets and melted down my face.

My skin fell off in charred chunks, exposing the flesh underneath to the fire. Blood flowed down my body as I fell to my knees, screaming and curling my fingers, tilting my head up and from the very motion the skin on my neck split open streaming blood down my body, but it began to evaporate.

I was burning to death at the feet of this man. My pain receptors were fried and I could feel my brain start to sizzle before I lost all connection to the world and slowly turned to ash...

I shot up in my bed as I awoke with a start. My chest heaved as I looked around my dark room. I looked next to me and Logan was still sound asleep. The clock read 3:00 on the spot and the sky was still dark.

I heard a clink, and a jingle. Followed by a sharp scratch on a door. They were very faint sounds, but in my mind they sounded loud. I shook Logan awake and he groaned as his eyes fluttered open.

“…what?” He asked groggily and I pointed to the door.

“Logan I’m hearing stuff downstairs and Rocky is asleep.”

(Syn PoV)

“I can’t believe she got away!” I yelled furiously tearing almost everything in my path. How dare she escape me? She is mine now! She’s been mine!

“Syn let it go!” Zacky finally yelled at me, I gave him a hard glare.

“Why the fuck are you so against this! I imprinted her Zack she’s mine! Why do you care so much!?” I roared back and he didn’t answer. He just shook his head, anger radiating from him. An idea flourished in my head, and I would make damn sure that bitch never escapes from me again.

“I’m going to take back what’s mine.” I growled. I pointed to Johnny and he nodded and agreed. We both phased into our wolf forms and dashed lightening speed out of the door. We ran into the forest dodging trees and shit. As I pushed myself to go faster one thought ran through my mind.

I’m coming for what’s mine. Count on it.

(Zena PoV)

We both stalked out of the room and down the stairs. We went to the front door and Logan opened it. No one stood outside; it was just a normal scene. He closed it then checked the windows.

“See Zena, there is nothing to worry about. Let’s go back to sleep.” He said heading up the stairs. I was about to follow when I heard the window behind me crash, and the large brown and black wolf burst through my window sending shards of shattered glass all over.
“What the fuck?!” Logan yelled at the same time I screamed. Rocky came running, standing up in front of the huge wolf and it growled menacingly. With one swipe of its paw, it sent Rocky flying into the wall and she let out a painful howl. The wolf jumped onto the table and using that as a stepping stool and jumped at me. It landed straight in front of me and started to snap at me as I backed away.

“Hey! Get away from her!” Logan yelled and the wolf howled. A solid black wolf with yellow eyes jumped through the hole in the window that the brown one made. It ran straight at me and I ran through my kitchen, knocking over things to block its path. I couldn’t do much with my shoulder in the evil cast. It growled at me and backed me up into a closet where I closed the door on my self as the door barked outside of the door and scratched at it violently.

I heard a pained roar coming from Logan and a loud growl outside. My eyes widened and I threw open the door, knocking the black wolf out of my way and running to Logan. My eyes widened in horror as I put my hand over my mouth. Blood was splattered over the walls and stairs and bloody paw prints were scattered all over my floor.

Rocky was in the corner, her insides ripped out and dark crimson blood slowly spread out on the floor, And Logan, I couldn’t begin to explain, he was barely recognizable.

The wolf was still hung over Logan, tearing him to shreds, growling as its teeth ripped the flesh and gnawed on the bones. The wolf’s face was covered and dripping blood and flesh. I got sick and threw my head to the side and threw up on the floor. The wolf glared at me and barked. Hands wrapped around me from behind and I was put in a chokehold.

“You’re coming with us.” The deep rumbling voice growled in my ear and dragged me out of the house, the wolf leading the way. He seemed un-phased by my biting, and kicking and screaming. The way he was carrying me over his shoulder made it extremely painful the way my elbow was positioned. I looked back on my house and it was trashed. Glass was all over my porch and you could see bloody paw prints leading from my porch.

“Who are you?! Where are you taking me?!” I screamed kicking and he made my legs still by immobilizing me.

“None of your fucking business! Now shut the fuck up!” He yelled and I quieted instantly. Small whimpers escaped from my mouth as he started running. I closed my eyes from the wind drying them out and when I re opened them; I saw the same house on the horizon.

My heart rate accelerated as I saw where I once was, and what I saw in the dreams that haunted my mind almost every night. The man threw me down right on my cast and I screamed so loud it echoed at least 4 times in the distance.

I scrambled up and he ushered me inside. I stumbled inside and I was met with 3 men.

One was the one with the bandana, I’ll just call him bandana guy or something, the other was taller and he was really muscular, he wore aviators to hide his gaze. The last was the tallest; he had crazy electric baby blue eyes and black hair. The person who had carried me in was the shortest, and he had blonde and black hair. The wolf was still the wolf, but a bright light emanated from his body as his bones shifted in his body and he stood up like a human. I gaped when I stared at him.

If he was the man from my nightmares….i must be in hell.

“Do I look familiar to you Zena? Do I look like someone you know very well?” He asked approaching me. I just stared at him in shock. I felt so much anger, disgust, and fear for him all at once.

“You…” I growled angrily as he smirked. He came up to me and touched my cheek. I immediately moved away from his touch. This didn’t settle well with him, and he grabbed my face hard and forced me to look into his ugly face.

“When I touch you, you do not move away from me. Understand?” He growled coldly, and I didn’t respond. He just squeezed my jaw tighter until I finally said yes.

“Good.” He spat, letting go of me and walking the other way. The guy with the Bandana came up to me and inspected my arm.

“Yes?” I asked, as his eyes met mine.

“Did Syn do that?” He asked me and I looked confused.

“The guy, who brought you here, is Syn. The really tall one is Rev, the shortest one is Christ, our pack leader is Shadows, and I’m Vengeance.” He explained and I nodded.

“You saved me right?” I asked and he nodded. I gave him a one armed hug and he returned it.

“No, problem.” He said and his eyes shone.

“Why am I here?” I asked scared and he just sighed.

“I was against you coming here in the first place, but Syn marked you and now by the power of the universe you do belong to him.” He said and i got pissed.

“That is such bullshit! I don’t belong to anyone!” I yelled, and I glared at the spot he was just in.

“I hate him.” I grumbled and I think Vengeance mumbled a ‘ditto.’ He looked like he spaced out for a minute before he snapped back to reality.

“Syn wants you in your room now.” Vengeance said grabbing my hand and pulling me with him.

“Well I want to go home but that won’t happen anytime soon now will it.” I replied sarcastically.

“Seriously, I don’t want you to get hurt. But if you disrespect him, I don’t even know what he would do.” He said and I just averted my gaze. I opened a door and was put into the same room I had been in before, and the same one that haunted my dreams. I heard the door close behind me and I was alone. I looked around the room and I just took it in. My neck started to hurt under the bandage and I went into the bathroom and took it off in the mirror. I was shocked to see it had healed perfectly, except for the two fangs like scars and small marks in between them. I ran my fingers over it gently.

I turned off the lights and going over to the soft plushy bed covered in black silk sheets. As I lay down the mattress basically ate me and I fell asleep almost instantly.

Next thing I know I was being shaken awake, and I look to see Rev standing over me.

“Syn wants you for dinner.” I frowned and threw a pillow at him before I turned over and went back to sleep.

“Seriously, don’t make him come in here to get you.”

“I’m not hungry.” I said and he just left the room. I was almost asleep when the door flew open with a bang and then I was suddenly forcefully removed from the bed.

“What the fuck?!” I screamed and I saw the pissed off face of Syn.

“Didn’t I tell you to come down?” He raged.

“No, Rev did.” I replied honestly. I wasn’t trying to be smart, I was being reasonable. A strong force collided with my face and my head whipped to the side.

“Don’t play fucking games, now come downstairs.” He yelled yanking me up.

“I’m not hungry!” I protested but he just pushed me out of the door.

“You either eat now, or you won’t eat for a long time!” He yelled and I could tell by the look on his face he was serious. I stayed quiet and submissive as he picked me off of the floor and roughly dragged me downstairs. There was a dining room where food was set already. I sat in a chair next to Vengeance since I refused to sit next to Syn and by chance it was the only other seat available. Someone somewhere must love me.

There were like 5 raw bloody steaks and the men tore into them like animals…oh yeah. I laughed to myself and they looked at me. I put my fork down and looked at all of them.

“Yes?” I asked rudely and they all averted their gazes. I picked up my fork again and continued to eat the rice in front of me.

“Syn what are you going to do with her now? You got what you wanted…” The one I think was Shadows said. Syn smirked in my direction.

“She’ll do whatever I want her to do.” I felt rage settle in me as they discussed me this way right in front of me. I stabbed my food with my fork violently.

“Do you have something to say Zena?” He asked and I growled.

“Not to you…” I said looking at him dead on, in his golden eyes.

Keep this up and you’ll be dead before you can blink I heard him growl sinisterly in my head.

“I blinked.” I said out loud directly to Syn and he growled. I took it he didn’t like my sassy attitude. Well I don’t like him either.

You don’t know what you’ve just started…
