Out for blood
2505 Words
REVA’S POV
“Why did you do it?” I asked my sister who was lying lifelessly on the ground
“R…” she spewed up blood as she tried to say my name and just like that my only sister was dead right in my arms, and I didn't even know what she had drunk to make her like this.
What had Logan done to her? Ever since she came back from his mansion after he rejected her she was never the same and I just knew that he had done something to her. Why had he rejected her in such a cruel way? He knew what his rejection would do to my family and yet he just rejected her like she was nothing, he cared about no one but himself. I didn’t even want to imagine the horror of what she had gone through while she was living in his mansion, was she being mistreated because she came from a family of nobodies in the village?
The fact that she died in my arms woke up a hunger in me, and that hunger was for revenge.
Logan was going to regret the day he ever rejected my sister and by the time I was done with him, he was going to pray to the moon goddess to end his miserable life on earth….
REVA’S POV
“NO father it is his fault, my sister, is dead, he did that to her, he landed her in that grave” I shouted at my father as he struggled to keep me calm and I failed to understand why he didn’t share the same anger as me.
"If it wasn't for him she would be alive and he has to pay"
“But fighting with him won't get us anywhere Reva, he is the Alpha of this pack and he runs this little town. I don’t expect you to understand what that means because you have never lived in a little town like this ever since you were born, and that is because you went to live with your aunt right after you were born. And I did that because I hoped that you would grow in a better atmosphere that was healthier than this but I failed you because you have become exactly what I didn’t want you to become” he said.
"Things here don't work the same way they do back there, here we are not a part of the royal family we are not even important, to say the least" he added
My mother had died right after she gave birth to me because of some medical complications and my aunt offered to take care of me since I was too young to stay with my father. So she took me and I went to stay with her in another pack where her mate was from. I had lived there until I grew up and my sister would visit me every chance she got and she never missed a birthday of mine. My father and aunt had agreed that I would return home for the mating ball on my 18th birthday. Unfortunately, when I got home for my birthday I was met by a tragedy, my sister had taken her own life all because her mate rejected her.
"I know that but we still have to do something, we can't just take my sister's death lying down, someone has to be held accountable" I protested
"I agree with you but remember your sister wasn't killed, she killed herself. And the least we can do is to find out what drove her to that" he said
"It's obvious that it's a matter of who drove her to do that rather than what," I said "Dad, you are the one who told me that she was crying the day she left the house and then I found her dead from drinking poison"
"Just let it go," he said, I could see that my father was speaking the way he was speaking because he was afraid of Logan, but I wasn't. My sister deserved to have someone who was determined enough to hold Logan accountable and if it wasn't me then who was it going to be.
“But father we can't just let him get away with it,” I said
“There is nothing that we can do about it, karma will eventually get him. All we can do now is collect the pieces of our lives and move on, nothing we do now will bring her back” my father said, "just accept that we are powerless compared to him, we are nothing here."
“I understand you are old and maybe you feel like there is little you can do to him but there is a lot of damage I can do to him, I refuse to let him go scoot free,” I said "He won't even see me coming because he loves women so much"
“Reva, you are saying that because you don’t know what that man did to your sister. You have no idea how he treated her and you never saw the state she was in after he rejected her” he said
"And you do?" I asked him "Did you not say that she refused to tell you what he did?"
"I may not know the details of everything that went down, but I saw how she reacted when I took her back to him, there was pure fear in her eyes but I ignored it," he said " if I hadn't sent her back there she would probably be still alive," he said and that just made me feel worse. Now my father was blaming himself for the screw-up that Logan was. Why did my father have to feel like Logan's behavior was his fault? The former alpha and his mate were responsible for the man that Logan had become, it was their fault that he was cruel.
"Don't blame yourself for their mistakes" I said and he shook his head
" Let's just let it go, there is a possibility that things were not as they seem. Have you considered that maybe Logan did nothing?" He asked me
"That is my point, he could have prevented it by accepting and loving her but he chose not to. He chose to humiliate her" I said
"You speak as if you know what happened," he said
“Come on, it's a well-known fact that this pack is run by the most ruthless, arrogant Alpha, it's also a well-known fact that he is a womanizer and I know he was probably f*****g around while he was with my sister,” I said
“Please mind your language” my father warned
“I am sorry but I will get revenge for my sister even if it's the last thing I do,” I said as I got up and walked out of the room, this conversation alone was enough to depress me.
“Where are you going now?” I heard my father ask as I banged the door and stormed out of the house.
It was evident that my father feared the alpha but I didn’t, and I didn’t care how dangerous they all claimed he was. He had to pay for what he had done to my sister and I was going to ensure that he got what he deserved. My sister had killed herself because she was humiliated hence I wanted to humiliate him the same way he had humiliated her. I couldn’t wait around for karma to do my family justice because I knew that karma would be too slow for me.
After I left my father I got into my car and headed to the next town where a friend of mine stayed. The town next to ours was a witch town and I loved going there when I felt overwhelmed. Kasia and I had met at school and we had hit it off from then. Although it was very uncommon for wolves and witches to attend the same school, Kasia and I had attended a college that accommodated all kinds of supernatural creatures and that was how we had met.
“Hey girl” greeted her as she opened the door for me, Kasia always knew when I was going to visit her and whenever I got to her place I never had to knock on the door because she would always open it right before knocking.
“Hey what's up?” she asked me “I didn’t expect to see you here ever since you moved back home,” she said and I sighed
"Why is that?" I asked her
"I guess I just assumed your father wouldn't like the idea of you being close to a witch," she said and I rolled my eyes
"When have I ever lived my life to please anyone?" I asked her and she shrugged "so why would I start now?" I asked again
“Anyway I needed some air, things are a little tense back home ever since my sister passed away,” I said
“Oh I am so sorry about that, but I don’t blame your sister. I mean who would want to live with that Alpha who is famous for disrespecting women and his womanizing ways” she said
“Yeah, but I am out for blood,” I said “his blood to be more specific” I added and she laughed
“You hate him don’t you?” she asked me
“With every fiber of my being,” I said and she sighed as sat on the couch next to me
"But I guess the real question is can you take him on? Do you think you have what it takes to take him on?" She asked me
"I already know that he loves women," I said
“What can you do to him, I mean he is the most powerful man in this whole area. How many alphas do you know that would stand up and challenge him?” she asked me
“I don’t know many but I know I will stand up to him and I will bring him down,” I said confidently
“How do you intend to do that?” she asked me “Will you kill him?” she asked me
“No, I want him to kill himself the way my sister did,” I said and Kasia laughed
“Come on Reva, even you are not that naive a man like that would never allow a woman to make him kill himself," she said
"Maybe he has never met a woman who would," I said
"I am assuming you think that you are that woman," she said with a raised eyebrow
"You are supposed to b on my side," I said
"I am, I just need you to make this make sense," she said "I mean I see your passion for revenge but even I am not powerful enough to make any aloha kill himself," she said
"If I can't make him kill himself then I will kill him myself," I said and she smiled
"You are now making sense and killing him is something that I can help you with," she said and I shook my head
"No, I think I want to do this myself and without any help. Especially supernatural help." I said " it will be that much more satisfying for me to know that I killed him all by myself because I know he will underestimate me," she said
"I am assuming you have a plan," she said
"I do, I am going into his packhouse and working my way into his heart," I said, even I had to admit how genius my plan sounded. This was the only way that made sense to me, I mean Logan loved women so it seemed only fitting that a woman brought him to his end.
"What happens when you find your mate?” she asked me and I kept quiet because I hadn’t thought that far.
“Do you think you will be able to pursue revenge even after finding your mate and the mate pull starts working in you?” she asked me and I shook my head, she was right. I was probably going to abandon this mission as soon as I found my mate.
“I didn’t even think that far, but I know I will come up with something,” I said confidently
“Life is just so sad for wolves,” she said “especially for female wolves, I mean who says only the women should live for the men? And why do the men get a free pass to doing whatever they wanted?” she asked and these were the exact questions that I had always asked myself.
“I bet you sometimes wish you were a witch,” she said with a proud smile “life is so much easier for us, I mean we chose who we want to fall in love with and we chose if we even want that love,” she said and then it hit me.
“I just got an idea,” I said as my eyes widened
“No way, when your blue eyes widen and stick out like that I know that whatever idea you have is a bad one and it probably involves me,” she said
“Come on Kasia, just hear me out,” I said
“Fine out with it,” she said
“What if you performed a spell that shuts me off to love,” I said and she looked shocked
“Why would you want to do that?” she asked me
“It’s just until I finish dealing with Logan,” I said and the funny thing was that I had never met or even seen the Logan that I was obsessing about but from what I heard he was quite a looker, and every woman who saw him just fell at his feet and begged for his love.
“Do you even understand the gravity of what you are asking me?” she asked me
“Yes, I am just asking you to lock my heart, only for a little while. I know for a fact that you can do that” I said and she sighed, she knew me well enough to know that there was no way that she would negotiate her way out of this
“Fine, I will do it but I am only doing it because I am a witch and we witches will take any opportunity we get to hurt a wolf,” she said and I breathed a sigh of relief, there was nothing that was going to stop me from avenging my sister. I didn’t care what her reason for helping me was, as long as she helped me I was happy.
