From Friends To Foes

Third Person POV

Tyler sat on an old rugged chair. His head hung low, and hands tied to the back of the chair with silver shackles that weakened him a bit.

Though the room was fairly lit with the moonlight, he was unable to see a thing from the blindfold. His body was full of all the lingering sweat and blood his body was covered in, making him rather uncomfortable. This was evidence his body had been harshly beaten countless times and was making him angry just to think of it.

Acting vulnerable was never his thing. But if he had to trick them into taking them down, he had to play his part. He just hoped help came soon.

Silence lingered in the air. He had excellent hearing, due to the numerous hours Blake obliged him to practice with a blindfold. He could hear a pin drop in the next room if he concentrated enough, and right now was his chance to put those abilities to good use.

His throat was dry and his body felt drained. He was regretting the offer Chester and Liam had made him earlier that morning to join them for an earlier breakfast before he left to speak with Luna Macy.

He had a gut feeling that morning that things were gonna go wrong when he spotted Tasha near the packhouse.

Just like Blake had asked him, he had been studying the traits of the primordial vampires. He remembered reading something about the characteristics of a person under a manipulation spell.

His theory was right. Tasha was in fact under the manipulation spell, as Blake and Selene had thought. She took those guards for a fool, flirtatiously made her way inside the dungeon, and when the time was right, she gave the signal to the other two traitors and attacked the last five guards to free Jazmin from her prison cell. Taking down Macy in the way of their betrayal.

If Jazmin didn't get to become Luna, then Macy sure as hell did not deserve to be Luna as well. Or so Jazmin thought. This was why she quickly grabbed the syringe full of wolfbane that would be used on her after her baby was born.

At that moment when he saw Macy's body twisting and turning from the pain, he knew then, he should have taken Chester and Liam along with him to help. Maybe then he wouldn't find himself in this predicament.

He can hear a car driving close... it had to be at least a mile or two away. Driving slowly, by the sounds of the numerous sounds of gravel, leaves, and branches being broken; he assumed they had to be somewhere in the mountainsides. He could smell the greens of the forest. Ever green's, pines, and old maples. Then he realized, the smells, the sounds, the tiny owls that sounded about five miles away...

"Fuck! I feel so damn weak because of these stupid slivered shackles." He spoke low to himself. His body was now slowly starting to heal from how many times he was beaten. But the lingering sting from the shackles was still there.

"And now I'm regretting not telling Blake of where I was going this damn morning."He chuckled to himself.

The car halted and he led out a loud growl. His nose alerted him of the presence of a vampire. Though this was just a lower-class vampire and not the one he would have lovingly welcomed with a nice big bite to the head by his wolf Charlie.

The door slowly opened. He was greeted by a blow to the stomach and chuckles from the opposite side.

"I thought you said this guy was the toughest guy in the Primord pack besides the Alpha? If this is the case, then we definitely have the upper hand on these guys." The vampire laughed.

Jazmin and Tasha laughed along with him. "I guess they were all just talk. They don't seem so powerful as people say." Jazmin sneered as she came closer to him.

"Do you really think she'll come looking for him here? What if this doesn't work? Damian is going to be really upset if you brought her brother instead of Selene here." Tasha looked at Jazmin worried their plan would backfire on them.

"Shut the fuck up, will you!? I know that bitch will come. Sooner or later she will come looking for him. I'm just pissed we didn't take her fucking mate instead of her brother." She walked towards the opened window located behind Tyler. The moonlight peeked through the window. Narrowing her eyebrows, she placed her hands on her hips as she clenched her jaw.

"First, she gets my best friend killed. Then she gets my mate killed as well. She ruined my chance at having a friend, she ruined my chance at having a happy family. To have my own pack, to become luna. She has done nothing but ruin my fucking life.... and for that, she's going to pay." She turns on her heel, walking slowly towards Tyler.

She grips his cheeks harshly. Pulling off the blindfold from his eyes. He immediately recognizes the vampire. He was a young vampire that lurked around the Crescent Moon Pack. He pretended to be a new member of the pack, though secretly Blake had pointed him out. He had been hiding his natural scent and used a spell to make himself look and smell like a wolf.

He had his whole pack fooled, he even managed to fool some of the packs around while they visit. But Blake was no fool, he smelled the stench of his true identity from the start. Though he pretended not to know. All to keep his plan going smooth and undetected.

"If you two know what's good for you! This damn plan better work. Or Damian will rip your head off. He is not the kind of person to take lightly to." He retracted his fangs, making his irises turn red.

"Believe me, sweetheart... you don't want to piss off Damian. So for your sake, this plan of yours better work. Or you can kiss your own life goodbye!" He leaned forward, his body almost hovered over Jazmin, making her tilt her body back against the small table towards the right-hand side of Tyler's chair.

"It will work. Believe me... she will come! And when she does, I will take her down myself." The vampire, whose name was Gavin, growled as his mouth grew wider, his fangs expanded more.

"He specifically told you.... he wants her alive. If anyone is going to kill her, it's him. You dare disobey him... you will regret it."

Tasha crossed her arms, averting her stare from Tyler to where Gavin and Jazmin Bickered.

"Guys... how much longer are we going to be here? I'm starving. We haven't eaten anything since this morning. I mean I get it, vampires don't need to eat. But, we do. So can we go and get something already?" She scuffed as she rested her hip by a small table with a lamp.

Gavin huffed, undoing his stare from Jazmin. "I don't know how the hell you two can eat so damn much. But fine, let's go." He turned towards Tyler who hung his head and slumped his shoulders down. "For your sakes! I hope your little sister comes. Otherwise, Damian is going to be upset and he is very unpredictable when he is angry."
