Ch 15: Secrets Are Revealed


My head feels like its going to explode. Actually, it hurts so bad that I want it to explode.

"Harley?" My voice is hoarse. Something metal scrapes across the floor. My eyes flutter open, slowly.

I attempt to brush the hair out of my face, but a chain stops me. My eyes fly open, stinging immediately. Where am I?

"She's awake!" I hear a familiar voice shout. I wince, the loud noise hurting my sore head.

"R-Remi?" I raise an eyebrow, pulling at my chains.
"What are you doing? Where am I?"

"Shut up. God, you've always been so annoying," she rolls her eyes and stands up. Tears prick my eyes.

"W-what? Its me, Ember. I'm your best friend!" Hysteria is evident in my voice, as it rises several octaves.

"I know who you are, idiot. I'm not your best friend," she scrapes the chair against the concrete flooring again.

"But why? Remi, what's going on?"

"Stop calling me that! My name isn't Remi! My name is Amelia. God, I hated that fake name Maya made me use," she rests a hand on her head. Remi isn't even Remi... She's Amelia?

"Okay, Amelia, what's going on? Why am I here?" I throw in a small hint of attitude.

"Listen here, pup, you have no right to talk to me. Shut up before I make you," she rests a hand on her hip, lifting her shirt slightly. A small hand gun is hidden on the waistband of her shorts.

I open my mouth, but close it soon after. I don't really feel like getting shot right now. I glance around the room, looking for my escape. She smirks.

"No way outta here."

My eyes land on her, and I notice she's changed her clothes from the party. She stands, hand on hip, in black shorts, black shirt, and combat boots. Her hair is pulled into a tight pony tail. She has something in her pocket, opposite of her gun.

I look down at myself, I'm still in my party dress. My heels, jewelry, wallet, and phone are all gone. She steps forward, needle in hand.

"This won't hurt a bit. Just kidding, it'll hopefully hurt a lot," she says menacingly, sticking the needle recklessly into my neck. Blackness soon engulfs me, as she struts back to her chair.

"She's awake, again."

My eyes open at the sound of the person's voice. Its Re- Amelia again. Except, this time, Maya is standing next to her.

"Finally, she was starting to snore as loud as a freaking chainsaw," Maya sneers at me. I bite my tongue to keep from telling her off.

"Oh sorry for being such a terrible house guest. Shouldn't have even invited me," I shake my head, sarcastically. Maya growls and Amelia hides a small chuckle. Even she can't not laugh at my attitude and sarcasm. However, she recovers quickly and starts growling as well.

"I have no idea how you put up with her for so long. She never shuts up," Maya shakes her head as well.

"I know right? It'll all be worth it soon though, baby." Amelia smiles lovingly at Maya. Wait. What? 'baby'???

"Once she and he's out of the way, we can finally be together," Maya pulls Amelia into a deep kiss. I resist the urge to gag. I've always hated PDA.

While they're distracted, I scan the room once more. This time, I spot a small pebble near me. They stumble against the only chair in the room, engulfed in each other's arms. Barf.

I quickly, but quietly snatch the pebble and fiddle with it. I can find a way to use this to my advantage. I look down at my chains and see small cracks in between each link. They couldn't have even sprung for better quality chains. Not that I'm complaining.

"If you're done with your show, I'd really like to know why you needed me 'out of the way' in order 'to be together forever'." I hope to distract them even further with my endless questioning.

Maya and Amelia slowly pull apart, sighing. Maya turns to me with fire in her eyes.

"Oh wouldn't you like to know."

"Um yeah. That's why I asked." I try to shrug my shoulders but they barely move due to the restraints.

"We're going to kill her anyway, so," Amelia says as if I'm not there. Maya smiles at her.

"Okay. So, we met a couple of years ago, at a training camp," Maya starts. Love is evident in her eyes. "Amelia had the most gorgeous fur I've ever seen. I wasn't even gay then. I guess you could say that she changed me."

"I wasn't even allowed to be there. I was rogue for a long time," Amelia says. "I showed up and saw Maya, in a group of girls. I instantly knew she was the one. You see, when you're gay as a wolf, you get two mates. A boy, and a girl. You get to choose who you want. Once you find one or the other, you usually lose the connection to the other. That's why I ran from my male mate."

"Wow. I never knew that. But, I still don't understand why Maya was so obsessed with Axel, or why you need me here for that matter"

"I had to get into your group somehow and it obviously wouldn't work out by going in through Amelia. That would be too obvious. Amelia told me about Axel and about how much of a tool he was. He was the easiest option." She smirks once she finishes. I feel the need to defend my friend, Axel. He isn't a tool. He just wants to feel love.

"I'm still not happy about you sleeping with him," Remi frowns, sticking out her bottom lip and looking at Maya.

"I know baby, I know. He was terrible, I hated every second of it. If it makes you feel better, I thought of you the whole time. I love you so much," Maya wraps her arms around Amelia once more, kissing her forehead. They smile at each other.

"I still don't get why."

"Ugh, you're so slow," Maya rolls her eyes again. I'm surprised they don't roll right out of her head. "We need to distract the Alpha and Luna so that my pack can take over. With the Alpha out of the way, the warriors won't know what to do and will lose. Then, the Cloudy Skies pack will be number one again."

"That's actually a pretty good plan," I look at my nails, raising an eyebrow at them.

"I know, we're pretty brilliant, right Amy?" Maya coos at Amelia. I struggle to hide my smirk.

"But, you have one fatal flaw," I state slowly. They both stare at me, waiting for my next words. "You really should've sprung for stronger chains."

At that moment, I pull free from my restraints and lunge at them. I tackle Amelia first, knowing she has a gun. I start throwing punches wildly. I snap her wrist, and she shrieks but I cover her mouth. Off to the side, Maya starts screaming bloody murder. I leave Amelia lying on the floor in agony.

I jump on Maya and start kicking, throwing, scratching and biting. I'm an unstoppable force at this time. I shift and growl lowly at them. Maya spits blood onto the cool floor and grins devilishly.

She's pouncing in a flash, pinning me to the ground. I pray I haven't landed in her bloody saliva. I roar out in pain as her claws sink into my shoulders. I use every bit of strength to push her off me. I aim for her throat and clamp. She shrieks and goes limp in my mouth. Amelia wails.'

I turn and see her crying, holding her wrist to her chest, and staring at Maya's lifeless body.

"You- you killed my mate!" She howls and snaps her head towards me. Her eyes are blazing with anger and sadness. She's now out for blood. I rotate my head and stretch my claws, ready for another fight.

"I'm sorry Amelia. I had to, and now you're next."

"That's where you're wrong, Ember. I'm the one with a gun and the key," she pulls out her gun and points it at me. She pulls the trigger and I wait for her to hit her target.

Me.
