Chapter 113 You Don’t Have a Choice

Ann’s heart sank as the memories came flooding back to her.

How could she have been so stupid?

She was fully aware when she was driving through that part of the city that it had a bad reputation, but seeing the state of the… whatever that was in front of her had pulled at her heartstrings.

The area was home to addicts of both humans and their synthetic drugs and the shifters and magickal beings who had either succ*umbed to the darker side of magick and paid the price with their sanity or had indulged in one too many apothecaries concoctions that had left them with an insatiable craving that would never be sated.

All of them had one thing in common, their exceedingly poor grip on reality and the uncompromising drive to secure the source of their next fix.

Despite her wolf’s advice and Lexi’s, she had decided that she knew better and thought that the poor soul in front of her had at least been deserving of some medical attention. The gash on his head had looked horrific and Ann certainly hadn’t had anything with her to treat it.

Purely because of her naivety, she had put herself in this situation and she had no idea how she was going to get out of it.

Wherever she was now, she had been bound in a decidedly uncomfortable position and her arms ached terribly from where they were suspended above her head. She glanced up and gave an experimental pull on the shackles but they were firmly attached to the wall. Disappointingly, the fixings looked fairly new.

Perhaps if Maeve were to lend her strength they would be able to break free, or at least dislodge the chains from the wall but she had a feeling that it was a long shot at best.

Ann tried to reach for Maeve inside of her, but much to her dismay, she received no response.

It wasn’t surprising though, Ann could still clearly feel the effects of whatever drug they used to sedate her and although Ada might be stupid enough to forget about Maeve’s potential for creating chaos, Narcissa certainly was not.

Ann’s shoulders sagged in defeat as she realized that she would have to wait for now and bide her time carefully as she waited to see whatever plan Ada and her mother had concocted this time. Whatever it was, it couldn’t be anything good.

“Comfortable in their fleabag?” Ada’s voice called faintly, causing Ann to frown.

“Aww, turn that frown upside down. Why so sad Ann? You’re back in the palace where you belong so I can’t possibly see why you would be so upset.”

“Oh f*uc*k off Ada,” Ann answered tiredly, as she realized that although she couldn’t see Ada, Ada could quite clearly see her.

Ada’s mocking laugh answered her.

“I will, don’t worry. I have a date with Brad and then, after I’m done with him, I have one lined up with your a Choice precious Alpha Nocturne,” She t*ittered as Ann’s head shot up, her eyes wide in disbelief.

“Don’t lie to me, Ada. There’s no way that Adam would lower himself to that level and agree to a date with the likes of you.” Ann spat furiously as her stomach turned in sickening circles.

It couldn’t be true… could it?

“The only place Adam will be lowering himself is inside of me,” Ada sighed theatrically, “It’s been too long honestly, I can’t wait. Funny how history just keeps repeating itself isn’t it?”

“I don’t believe you,” Ann answered calmly.

She was positive that this was all just some sick and twisted game that Ada was playing in order to sow the s*eeds of doubt in her mind.

“Why are you so twisted, Ada? Why can’t you just find your own happiness instead of continually trying to destroy other people’s?”

“Oh but you’re wrong, Ann. I’m not interested in destroying other people’s happiness… only yours. I told you before, many times that I intend to destroy you completely so I don’t know why you’re so surprised that it keeps happening.”

“I’m not surprised that you keep trying the same S*hi*t over and over again, you were always a slow learner.” Ann spat with a sneer, “I’m just bored of you repeating yourself continually. Your ridiculous plans always end up backfiring and hurting you in the long run. Mark my words, whatever you have planned now, is going to end up the same way.”

“That’s where you’re wrong, Ann. Daddy dearest is confined to his room and won’t speak to any of us, so there’s no chance of him finding out about you being a Choice down here. Which leaves me free to do as I please… and what I intend to have please me over and over again… is your second chance fated mate.”

“That’s enough Ada.” Narcissa’s voice cut through the air like a knife as silence descended.

Ann strained to hear what was being said but all she could hear was the faint mumbling of their voices from outside the room.

Seconds later and without any prior warning, the door to the room flew open and Narcissa strode in with a slightly manic look in her eyes as she grinned broadly at Ann.

“Welcome home dear stepdaughter!” She simpered as she spread her arms wide, ” I hope you like your new room. You’ll be here for the next few hours at least.”

Ann remained silent, her mouth settling into a grim line as she watched Narcissa’s slow deliberate steps toward her.

“Not feeling talkative?” She asked with feigned concern as she c*oc*ked her head, “What a pity.” Narcissa tutted as she giggled briefly, “You’ll be here for a little while yet Ann, just until things have been taken care of and after that…who knows..” She smirked.

“Why are you doing this Narcissa?” Ann snapped, narrowing her eyes at her.

“I think what you should be asking is why didn’t I do this sooner? I was mocked for so long because I wanted to do things peacefully, but it seems you weren’t content with diplomacy… you had to f*orc*e my hand.” Narcissa sighed as she fixed her with an unsettling stare.

“Mocked? nobody mocked you Narcissa…”

“Not publicly no.” Narcissa snapped angrily before taking a deep breath and composing herself. “I wasn’t talking about… actually never mind. You don’t need to know.” She muttered, her face darkening suddenly as if a cloud had passed over it as she clenched her fists at her side.

Then as suddenly as it had appeared, the darkness was gone, and her face was once more it with the radiant glow of insanity.

“Try not to worry about things too much Ann. There’s nothing you can do to change things… so just sit down here and be a good girl for once in your f*uc*king life, okay?” She smiled venomously, “I’ve taken

great to ensure that you won’t be bored during your brief stay down here… we have a deliciously exciting form of entertainment arranged for you to enjoy.” She t*ittered happily.

“I’m not interested,” Ann answered immediately, knowing full well that there wasn’t a lot she could do to change things at the minute.

“That’s what they all say, dear. Unfortunately for you, you don’t have a choice.” She grinned happily.
