Chapter 26

• Cassia • 


I screamed, forcing myself to wake up. I looked around seeing I was back in my room. My whole body ached. I felt as though I was in a pool of fire. My head felt like it would explode any moment. I kept seeing images of my past, of the present. Everything felt overwhelming. It was to much. I got up, my legs wobbling underneath me. How long was I laying down for? My mouth hurt. Why was my mouth hurting? Why was I aching every where? What the hell happened? I walked over towards my mirror and stared at myself. I looked different. My skin was glowing, all of my flaws, gone. I brought my hands up and touched my face. It felt softer. I opened my mouth and noticed that my canines were sharper. Why? Was that why it was hurting? 

I heard footsteps and growled, smelling him. Memories came rushing back. It was him. Because of him I was stripped off my werewolf side and was forced to live a human life while also having no memories of my past. I turned around, seeing him standing at the door frame and growled even louder, anger rising inside of me. 

"What did you do?" I asked, last thing I remembered from 200 years ago was Kevin and a coven of witches casting a spell on me and then waking up 3 years ago. Waking up to a life that wasn't mine and a life that was all made up. I walked towards him, wanting to hurt him and make him pay for what he had done to me. I moved closer, seeing red. He shouldn’t have done that, I trusted him and he betrayed me. He broke my trust. 

“Cassia, you need to calm down.” He said and hearing him say that angered me even further. I needed to calm down? Fuck I needed to calm down for? He did this to me and he was telling me to calm down. He ruined my fucking life by trapping me and erasing my memories. I charged at him in full speed, while also transforming into my wolf form, knocking both of us down. The urge to rip his head out took over me and I completely lost control to my wolf.

Kevin roughly pushed me off of him, causing me to stumble back and hit my head on the ground. I growled, looking at him. He had also transformed into his wolf form. ‘Stop!' He demanded in my head and my wolf Leiah whimpered and backed away. Woah! Why the fuck was she whimpering at his demand? I was the alpha, not him. Although, his wolf had gotten way bigger than the last time I saw him.

‘Who are you talking to like that?’ I questioned, standing firm and tall. No way was I going to let him disrespect me like that. He moved towards me and started circling me. ‘You are no longer the Alpha. I became Alpha after you were put to sleep.’ I scoffed, hearing his voice in my head echoing with so much authority. Was that why he betrayed me? To become Alpha? 

‘Do I really have to challenge you in order to put you back in your place, Beta?’ I questioned and he stopped circling me. He growled, loud and viciously. I rolled my eyes and stood my ground, showing him I was not afraid. I took over my wolf and showed her that I was the alpha, not him. She was not going to whimper at his every demand. His wolf might’ve gotten bigger but I was still stronger. 

‘You’ve been asleep for 200 years, you will lose.’ He said confidently, making me laugh. I easily transformed back into my human form and looked down at him. He was a regular black wolf while my wolf was Snow White. The only one of my kind. 

“Transform.” I demanded harshly and he did right away.

“What the fuck?” He questioned, confused. I took closer steps towards him and stopped inches away from his face. 

“I am the first of our kind, I have been around longer than you. I do not age or die. I created you. You might’ve been the alpha while I was gone. But you can never be higher than me.” I informed him and he just stared at me. Speechless. “Do you understand?” I demanded and he nodded. I did not need to challenge him in order to be Alpha. I was already THE Alpha.

"I can't believe you agreed to marry her." Cassia said angrily as hot tears ran down her face. She was hurt, beyond hurt. She felt betrayed and cheated on. The man that she loved was now marrying someone else. 

“I had no choice.” Elijah told her, trying to explain everything to her. His mother was the cause of everything. She was forcing him to marry someone else just so he and Cassia wouldn’t be together. His mother hated Cassia due to Cassia being a Viking’s daughter, which was a huge problem for the mother. 

Vikings knew about witches and hated them. They hunted them down and burnt them alive. Elijah’s mother had been hiding and keeping her and her son safe. Cassia knowing about her, made her feel unease. She was afraid, so she tried everything she could to remove Cassia from her son’s life. 

“You do have a choice, we had planned to leave together. So that we could be happy, just the two of us.” Cassia told him, moving towards him and grabbing both of his hands. 

“Please Elijah. Don’t do this.” Elijah stared down at Cassia as tears formed in his eyes. He pulled his hands away and took a step back. 

“I’m sorry. But I have to leave.” He said, turning to walk away.


• Cassia • (2022)


I was angry. My past memories had all come back to me, causing me to completely forget what had happened at the school. I was raped. I was fucking raped. He actually fucking raped me. I looked at Kevin who was sitting on my bed quietly. He was naked, we both were. Our clothes had ripped completely. 

“Hann fucking raped me. Because of him I was able to get my memories back, I should be thankful but all I want to do is fucking tear him apart. He took advantage of me because I was weak. Fucking weak!” I yelled the last part at Kevin. He looked up at me and got up. 

“What the fuck do you want me to do?” He questioned, getting closer to me. 

“Nothing. All of this shit happened because of you, so I don’t want you to do anything. Just fucking know your place, Beta.” I told him, moving closer to him. I couldn’t believe he had me fucking believe that I had a crush on him all those years. I was so stupid, I should’ve known. After I had lost my mate I didn’t want any man and I didn’t want to be touched by any man. He knew this. 

“Beta.” He scoffed under his breath and I growled at him. Did he need me to beat him to pieces for him to know his place? I was beyond angry. I was completely unaware. I had signs, after I came here, my emotions were off and I even growled at that stupid teacher. I should’ve know. I should’ve know it was a sign that I was not human. I wondered if Nina knew? She knew about my necklace. Unless she was working with Kevin. 

“Yes Beta. You’re no longer Alpha. You should be lucky I’m not punishing you right now for what you did to me. I have more important things to deal with.” I told him and turned to walk away from him. But stopped, realizing that it was just him and I. 

”Where the hell are the rest of the pack?” I questioned and he looked away. He didn’t say anything which I then scoffed annoyed and walked towards the bathroom to get myself cleaned up. I couldn’t deal with him right now. He clearly was a lone wolf trying to be an Alpha. He either killed the rest of the pack or they left him. 

I sighed and looked at myself in the mirror. I touched my neck and noticed that the wound was all gone. I had healed completely. Han had bit me that night, while his filthy hands touched me and his disgusting…I growled, remembering everything he did to me. 

I wanted him dead, I wanted him to pay for what he did. He treated me like garbage and used my body for his own pleasure without my consent. I didn’t even know where to start. I was so lost and confused. I lost 200 years of my life. All I knew were from 3 years ago and I lived a life that wasn’t even true. I didn’t even know what I was doing with myself. I was in a world full of vampires. I fucking hated those blood sucking creatures. 

I took a deep breath and quickly turned on the water before hopping in the shower. I was pissed at Kevin for what he did, but I wanted to get rid of Hann first. I knew once I go back to school that everyone was going to question my change. They were going to look at me differently. I doubt I was welcomed there, but I didn’t care. They were drinking animal blood, which made them fucking weak. That made my job so much easier. I’ll enjoy getting rid of all of them.

 I dried my body and put on what ever. I ended up wearing dark blue shorts with a regular loose gray t-shirt and my black and white converses. Guess that will do. I walked out of my room and towards the kitchen. I needed to eat something. 

“I made you an egg sandwich. It’s in the microwave.” I turned around and looked at Kevin. He was fully dressed. Just looking at him passed me off. I couldn’t stand him. He fell right under Hann on my lists of people I wanted to kill. 

“Don’t want it.” Was all I said, I grabbed his car keys and walked out the door. I didn’t want to be near him right now. I decided on paying Hann a little visit instead.
