Wolf Dream
“What’s your name?”
    He continued to glare up at me. Not one word left his mouth.
    I guess he really wanted it rough. I shot my hand out, along with it a streak of electricity. His body jerked and he fell over. I watched all his muscles go taut as he strained against the pain. I almost smiled. Was it strange to want to feel good about torture? I didn’t care. He was going to die soon anyway , I tried to justify my actions.
    I let up the shock , more for my benefit than his. My arm was getting heavy and it began to ache. He gasped for air as he lay curled up on the floor. I kept telling myself I should feel bad for him, but nothing came. “I asked a question.”
    “ Tony,” he spat out in between breaths, sitting himself up.
    “Well , that’s a start. Now, maybe you can tell me about Nicholas. Where is he?”
    He shook his head . “I won’t tell you.”
    “You sure?” Ian stepped up, towering over him.
    “I’d rather die,” Tony seethed through clenched teeth.
    I nudged myself closer. “That can be arranged.”
    He snapped out at my leg. I barely moved out of the way before his sharp elongated fangs slashed my jeans. Ian was immediately by my side and snatched me around the waist, moving me quickly away, but I was pissed off and squirmed out of his grasp. Angrily, I kicked Tony’s jaw, sending him backwards. He didn’t understand who he just tried to bite. I could feel the heat of my powers rising to the surface as my blood boiled.
    “You just made a big mistake.” Ian bent down next to him and grabbed him around the collar. Dregan and Luna appeared next to us. Both of them snarled, showing off their sharp fangs.
    “See? She’s gonna get hurt.” Jarak sidestepped over to where Tony lay and squatted next to him. It took all I had not to kick him. Instead, I rolled my eyes and bit the inside of my cheek.
    Ian glared at his brother. “Jarak, move out of the way. Just because you and Julie are back together doesn’t mean you have to be a jerk. Why don’t you go find your precious witch and leave us to work.”
    At least Ian approved of the torturing of the breed. Luna flanked Dregan as he inched closer. I folded my arms and raised a brow at Jarak. “You know, there was a time when you wanted to help me. A time when finding out about Nicholas and killing him was your top priority. What changed?”
    Jarak threw his arms in the air. “Fine. You guys question him.” He pointed a finger at Ian. “But if she gets hurt, it’s on you.” He turned and left, shaking his head.
    My gaze trailed after him. It felt like years since we’d really gotten along. This whole war messed everything up and I hated it. I brought my attention back to Ian. He was unwinding a rope, letting it spill out onto the floor in a pile. “What are you doing?”
    He gave me one of his famous mischievous smiles. “Playing. I have an idea. Wanna join?”
    He always seemed to bring me out of my funks when it came to Jarak lately. I grinned. “Well, he is sorta my prisoner.”
    “That’s my girl.” He finished with the rope and began wrapping Tony in it. I watched curiously as he finally tied it off. Tony looked more like a mummy wrapped up in rope than a hostage. I couldn’t help but smirk.
    “What are we doing, exactly?”
    He picked up and flung Tony over his shoulder. I immediately forced the breed’s mouth to stay closed by just pushing a little more magic toward him so Ian wouldn’t get bit. He could still move everything but his mouth. With his head, Ian gestured to the back door. “Come on, it’s easier if we don’t get blood on the floor; it’s a pain to clean up.”
    I glanced at Jarak , who stared at us from the edge of the kitchen, but said nothing. I followed Ian out of the house dutifully, closing the door behind me.
