Chapter 15: Lost Control

Cain's P.O.V.

I walked back down to the basement to watch Sebastian, so Alexa could talk to her parents. I was standing there when Sebastian woke back up, and sat up in his chair better and looked over at me. He spoke, "So where is your psychotic girlfriend?"

I didn't respond to him. "What are you doing? Just going to let her do all the talking, and you just stand there like a freaking statue." I knew he was trying to get under my skin, but I wasn't going to give him the satisfaction. What he said next I was not expecting.

"When I said that they told me all about you I meant it. I know why you are so special to them." I looked at him. There is no way he could know what I am. I myself just found out. "Tell me." I am going to play along with him to really see if they know or if he is just trying to get something. He smirked, then looked at the knife in his leg. "First take it out." I knew he wanted something.

I really want to know what he thinks he knows, so I walked over and pulled the knife out, but he clearly didn't think this through because with pulling the knife out he is just going to lose more blood. "Okay now talk." "Well you are more powerful than any other lycan alive. Well maybe besides Alexa." I snarled, cutting him.

"Well it looks like I am on the right track." "Why do you think that?" "Well because at the school before you took me I could feel the power radiating off of her. The only other lycan I felt that kind of power from was you." Okay. Maybe you just never really paid attention till now."

He laughed. "You don't seem to understand. Mr. Reed felt it when he bumped into her that is why he was so fast to get her." I didn't say anything, just keep watching him. "With the power you both have the hunters want you two for themselves." I growled, "They will never have us."

Sebastian chuckled. "Oh they will and I will have Alexa all to myself." I lost it and lunged at him picking him up by his throat and pushing him up against the wall.

I just watched his eyes as he smiled at me. He struggled trying to say something. I loosened my grip just enough to let him speak. "I now see what she sees in you." I was getting a little tired of his games. "What?" His smile got bigger. "You both are psychotic. She is the Harley Quinn to your Joker." I was so mad I didn't even know what happened. Until I heard Sebastian hit the ground. I immediately yelled for Alexa. "You need to come quick." She didn't respond, but after a few seconds I heard her coming down the stairs.

She looked at Sebastian then at me. "What the hell happened?" I shook my head. "I am not for sure. One minute I had him pinned against the wall the next I blacked out, but was conscious. Then I saw him unconscious lying on the ground."

Alexa walked over to me and grabbed my hands and looked up at me. "Cain it's okay. Listen he is still alive." I looked at Sebastian and focused my hearing. I could hear his heartbeat. That made me feel a little better. I mean at least I didn't kill him. Alexa went over and picked him up and put him back in the chair.

She looked back at me. "Now why don't you tell me why you had him pinned up against the wall." I started to explain everything that happened. She just stood there and listened, not saying a word. When I finished she just kept looking between Sebastian and I.

"Alexa please say something?" She looked at Sebastian. "I need to go get something to stop the bleeding before he does die of blood loss." She got up, and just walked out. A few minutes later she came back with a first aid kit. She cleaned around the wound, then stitched it up and wrapped it.

We decided to get some sleep. We went up to one of the bedrooms and got ready for bed. I heard the bathroom door open. Alexa stepped into the room and came over to the bed and laid down. She looked over at me. "Why do you think they really want us?" I thought about it for a minute.

"Honestly I am not for sure. They could want us for our DNA. They could want us to use us." She turned over, I moved closer to her and pulled her to my chest, put my arm around her waist. "Don't worry about it Alexa. I will always be there to protect you, and stand by your side. Now get some sleep, we have a long day ahead of us."

Alexa's P.O.V.

I woke up and looked around the room and Cain was nowhere in the room. I got up, went and put some skinny jeans on and a blue t-shirt and my grey combat boots. I walked down stairs to the kitchen. There was a note on the counter. [Good morning. I went to check the perimeter. I will be back at 7. Love, Cain.] I looked over at the clock on the wall and it read 6:30.

I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and a sandwich, and went to the basement. When I got down there Sebastian was already awake. "How long have you been up?" He looked up at me. I rolled my eyes and walked over to him and set the water and the sandwich down. "Here you need to eat and drink something you lost a lot of blood."

He looked down at his leg. He spoke in a raspy voice. "You do this?" pointing to his stitches. "Yeah. Unlike you may think I am not a monster I don't want to kill you." He grabbed the water and drank some of it. Then reached for the sandwich. I heard the door upstairs open and close. I focused my senses and relaxed when I smelt Cain.

After a minute Cain came down stairs. He walked over to me. "Did you sleep well?" I looked up at him and smiled. "Yeah I did." Sebastian was staring at me. "What?" He shook his head. "The way y'all look at each other. I can tell you really care for each other." I looked at him a little confused. "So are intrigued by your so-called monsters."

Sebastian spoke. "I have only met one other lycan when I was younger and first found out about y'all." I looked at Sebastian with a serious expression. "What have you learned since meeting my kind?" He looked like he was thinking till he spoke.

"I have learned that you aren't a monster." You just care for your kind and families just like humans. You don't want to hurt us, you are just trying to survive in a world that wants you dead." I looked at him like he was lying. "I am telling you the truth. I was raised to hate lycans, but I was also only taught that you wanted to kill us all."

Sebastian looked at Cain. "You know what I am talking about. You and I were raised the same." Cain with so much venom, and disgust in his voice replied. "We were not raised anything close to the same. I was raised to be a soldier to follow orders. I was raised to kill my own kind, my family. You, you were raised to kill what you believed to be was monsters. You had a choice in what you wanted to do. I did not."

Sebastian said. "I guess you aren't the hunter I was taught about." "What kind of hunter did they say I was?" Sebastian smiled. "They said you were a lycan taken from birth and raised like us to kill monsters. They said you were broken and only would follow Mr. Reed." He paused for a minute then continued.

"I can clearly see they were wrong on somethings. You do kill monsters, but not all "monsters" are monsters, and you were not broken and you didn't follow Mr. Reed." I saw Cain's eyes darken. I guess hearing about Mr. Reed triggered something inside of him. I got up and stood in front of Cain blocking his view of Sebastian.

"Cain, look at me don't let him prove them right you are not a monster." He still wouldn't look at me, so I grabbed his face and pulled it so he was looking at me. I used a little alpha tone without trying to. "Cain focuses on me." His eyes locked with mine and after a second they went back to their beautiful green. "Did you use the alpha command on me?"

Before I could answer I heard a loud bang from up stairs. Cain and I both looked at the door at the top of the stairs. Cain looked at me and whispered. "I don't smell lycans and I can only smell two people you stay here and I will be right back."

I looked at Cain with sadness in my eyes. "Please be careful. I don't want to lose you." "Don't worry I will be." I watched him walk up the stairs and close the door behind him. I tried to listen but Sebastian started talking. "I bet that is my dad." I glared at him. "Will you shut up, I am trying to listen."

I heard glass shatter and went to go for the door but stopped myself. I listened closer as I only heard two heartbeats. I couldn't help it. I went up the stairs and opened the door. I just had to make sure that Cain was okay.

I looked to my right and saw Cain standing there, He had a guy pushed up against the wall another laying on the floor in a pool of blood. I looked over into the living room at the broken glass table. Cain spoke to the guy he had healed up against the wall. "Who all knows we are here?" He didn't answer.

I took a couple steps closer and looked around Cain to get a better look at the guy. "Well he was right, his dad is here. Hello Mr. Jones." Cain put the guy down but still kept him pressed against the wall. "Cain, take him down stairs with Sebastian." His eyes go wide. Cain and I walk with Mr. Jones downstairs. Sebastian looks up at his dad.

Mr. Jones speaks. "Oh my gosh. Sebastian are you okay?" Sebastian nodded his head. "Yeah I'm okay for the most part." Mr. Jones looked down at his son's leg then turned to me. "Did you do that to my son's leg?" I didn't answer him, just looked at Cain. "Get a chair and tie him down to it. If he is here the others might know where we are to."

After Mr. Jones was tied down. I walked over to him and stood in front of him. He watched me as I watched him. I stepped closer to Cain and whispered. "I say we leave them here and leave now." "We can't leave them here, Sebastian knows too much." I looked over at Sebastian.

"Cain undo Sebastian's chains." He walked over to Sebastian and undid his chains and yanked him up to stand. Mr. Jones spoke. "No. Please take me, don't hurt him." I looked at Mr. Jones. "I am not going to hurt him. Just take him with me." Mr. Jones pleaded. "Please take me instead. Just leave him here."

Sebastian spoke. "Are you going to hurt my dad?" I looked at Sebastian. "Not too bad, but really I am just going to leave him here, so he can give his friends a little message for me." I looked at Cain. "Take him to the truck while I have a talk with Mr. Jones."

He just nodded and did what I said and left. I turned to Mr. Jones. "Okay I want you to tell your friends what I tell you, when they come for you." He scowled at me. "I am not doing anything you say." I punched him in the jaw. "You are going to tell them, or your son dies." I hated threatening Sebastian but it was necessary. I saw the concern for his son flash over his face.

He looked down in submission. "Fine. What do you want me to tell them?" "I want you to tell them…"
