Left On An Island
Still Damien’s POVThis content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
I went home to get the girls to hurry up and get to the airport before the sedatives we used on Sofia wears off. I keep trying to convince myself that I am doing the right thing, I keep telling myself that this is all for the best, that this is the only possible solution to my problem, but there is a part of me that still feels guilty about all this. She made it clear to me that she doesn’t want to leave this place, she was pretty clear when she said that she wanted to be here for her family. I can’t imagine what would happen if she finds out that I tried to deceive her, I don’t know what I would do if she lets the darkness to take over. That is why I need to get them as far away from this place as I can.
“Just pack a few things goddammit, this is not a kicking vacation, it’s an emergency!” I yelled in frustration when the girls wouldn’t hurry up. They keep trying to figure out what to pack and what to leave behind, it’s just so annoying. They must think that is some kind of vacation or something, they have no idea that their lives are in danger as well. I’m not talking about the obvious fact that they will be the ones to explain to Sofia that I tricked her. That is a separate issue on its own, I’m sure they will find a way to handle the situation when she was up. I’m talking about Black and his accomplice who I know nothing about. I’ve been too blind to see that he is the one behind all these attacks against me and my company. If my inch is correct, then it simply means that he is ten steps ahead of me. For all I know, Stacy would have sold us out already, he may already know about our location. I can’t really be sure, but I have to assume that our locations and secrets have been compromised. I know they can take care of themselves, they were trained to do just that, but I still need them out of here because I don’t have a clue about Blacks allies and their plans. If anything happens to us, I need to know that they are safe, I need to know that our legacy will not die as well. They have to carry on our bloodline and ensure that our pack still has an Alpha.
We finally got everything ready, we took Sofia to the plane and the doctor made sure that she was heavily sedated, he had her on a drip all the way, and he kept the box that contains the potion that he had brewed specially for her close by, making sure that she doesn’t stand a chance to attack anyone. I had other activities to attend to, but I had to put them aside so I can personally escort the plane down to the island. The guys are scared, I can literally hear their fast heartbeats from miles away. I couldn’t let them get on that plane with Sofia, her demon wolf may get a boost of power from their fears and it could flush out the sedatives and come awake. I just picked a few guys that are tough enough to embark on this trip, along with Ralph and Dwain.
It was a few hours to the island, we got there in record time, I made sure our movement is untraceable because don’t want anyone to find them. I used a tiny device that I got from Dwain to misdirect announce that would be trying to trace our movement. It messes with the GPS and it makes you see exactly what I want you to see. Dwain can also use it to backtrack a hacker, when we get back, he will check the device to see if anyone tried to trace us and he would use the GPS on the device to triangulate the location of that person. I personally look forward to finding the person that is causing me so much pain, I want to teach him/her not to mess with me ever again. I helped them take her into the house, then I stayed a few minutes to ensure that her room is prepped with all the supplies that she needs to keep her calm. I placed some cool pictures of us around the room, I’m hoping it’s the first thing that she sees if she wakes up, I want her to remember all the good times we shared. I also placed some pictures of her family as well, it would be damn nice to remind her that she has a family that truly loves her and care about her. That should give her something to fight for, that would motivate her to keep a leash on the demon wolf so it doesn’t control her.
“Are you sure this is how you want to do this?” Tonia asked me when I came out of Sofia’s room and shut the door. She is all settled in her room now, so it’s up to my sisters and the doctors to keep her safe and sedated. I know they don’t like it here, they certainly weren’t in support of my plans from the onset, but I was hoping that they will have accepted the reality already, seeing as we are already here on the island. I glared at her for asking me this question right in front of Sofia’s room. This question always stirs up an argument between us always, she knows how stupid it would be for us to stand here and argue about this. I wonder if that is exactly what she wants. For all I know she may be trying to stir up this argument on purpose she may be trying to wake Sofia up on purpose. But I won’t let her trap me here with this argument, I walked right past her and went down to the sitting room, ignoring her completely.
“The least you can do is to indulge my questions and grace me with a polite response, seeing as I am one of the sacrificial lambs that you want to abandon on this deserted island with a demon wolf that is uncontrollable.” She lets out once more, coming to stand in front of me, blocking my path.
“I don’t have time for this Tonia. The sooner I leave this island, the sooner I can begin my investigations. You have nothing to be afraid of and even if you are afraid, you must not show that fear in front of her so you don’t feed her rage. If things go south, I need you two to use the submarine and get the fuck out of this island. But I’m sure it won’t come to all that because I’ll get the cure and ill come back here to get you all to safety. Just keep her safe, girls, I’m depending on you.” I told them, trying to keep a straight face because the last thing I want is for my sister to see the uncertainty on my face. It would certainly kill their confidence if they find out that I am not entirely sure that this plan would work out as I planned, something could go wrong at any given time, Sofia’s body may adapt to the potion and she would stand up from that bed and attack everyone on this island, including my sisters. And the worst part of it all is that I wouldn’t be here to protect them. They will have to improvise and survive on their own, and that would be very dangerous. But in leaving anyway, I mean, it’s a dangerous situation, I know that. But it is the right thing to do at this moment. So I turned around and walked out of them, going back to the plane, with Dwain and Ralph following closely behind me.
“You know, for a moment there, I thought you were going to change your mind and bring them back home. You are really doing this, aren’t you?” Ralph let out rhetorically, making me groan in frustration.
“Can we please get over this matter already, it’s so annoying to keep repeating myself every fucking minute. Look, I know you are both screwing my sisters and now you think that gives you a sense of responsibility towards them. But you need to always remember that they are my sisters and I would never let anything happen to them. I care about them, more than you two, and I won’t let them get hurt. I wouldn’t have let them come here if they couldn’t handle any situation that may arise although I’m pretty sure that no situation would arise because we took care of all the details. As comforting as it is to realize that you guys care so much about my sisters, I would also like you to give them the benefit of the doubt, I need you to trust in their abilities. They can handle it, they have the training and they know everything about this island so they can escape easily if things go south. I would prefer not to talk about this matter anymore, lets just focus on the mission and find a solution to this before it escalates to something we can not handle.” I let out firmly, then I turned around and boarded the plane. Leaving them standing there as they stared at my back in shock, or so I thought.
They had no fucking choice, they had to obey my orders even if they are not comfortable with my decisions. They got into the plane and took their positions, choosing not to talk to me. I ignore them, I know they will come around soon enough, I just need to prove to them that we can handle this situation before things go wrong. We got back in town in no time, I had the guys waiting for me at the airport because we weren’t heading home just yet, we are going to pay Bethany’s father a visit. For his sake, I hope that he isn’t responsible for what is happening to me and my family because I would not hesitate in pulling the trigger, I would kill him without thinking twice.
Yes, I know it would probably upset Bethany when she finds out that I broke my promise to her and hurt her family, but then again, her life would no longer be in danger because I would have found the cure to her current problems and she wouldn’t be the life threatening demon wolf anymore. She would be safe and alive and that is all I care about.
