NovelEnglishChapter Twenty Five Chapter Twenty Five I had always wanted this; I dreamt about it so many times that it felt surreal now. I dreamt about killing them over and over again.
"It must be hard having just one eye left to see with." He pleaded smore. "You know, you did leave sscars too. I would spend the rest of my life with them, so it only fair that I, Kaida Dawn, be the last person you will ever see," I slashed at his eyes, and his scream grew louder. Soon his cries turned into whimpers.
"Just kill me, he pleaded. Please, just kill me." "Not yet." I whispered.
"I... am-no better than a-" he paused to take in a shaky breath. "I am no better than a dead man... Just killand end the torment." "End the torment? Where is the fun in that?" I asked, and he broke down in tears. "Oh baby, don't cry, little kitten; no one is going to hurt you. I mean, you didn't really think you would go scot-free after what you've done, did you?" "Please..." "Okay, no more begging; how about we take your tongue next?" "No... no... please!" Begging didn't save him, I turned a deaf ear to his cry just as he did to me.

"Now I can kill you." I said, bringing my dagger to his throat, he stilled. He wanted this; he wantedto put him out of his misery. I wouldn't give him that. "Or better yet, I'll let you die slowly, locked in here. If you ever get hungry, your body parts are scattered here; all you have to do is feel around to find them." His choked cries followedas I walked out of the room and shut the door, locking him in.
I looked at my hands; they were covered in blood and strangely... I felt satisfied and accomplished. It was like a weight in my chest had been lifted off. I felt relief; it was all over. It was all over; I had avenged her death, and I could finally move on from that.
I hadn't done it on my own... Alexander had helped me; he had helpedovercmy greatest fear.
I wiped my hands on my pants; the black color masked the stain well.
I returned to my room.
I felt excited; I had never felt this excited in... years, and maybe Aric was right; maybe the Alpha King wasn't that bad; maybe things could work out, and I didn't have to shy away.
I watched the hours, waiting for Alexander's return, something I never did in times past. There was a knock on the door, and my heart skipped; I had thought it was him for a slight second, but Alexander doesn't knock; he simply walks in.
I headed to the door, and standing beforewas Aric.
He had this strange, unsettled look in his eyes.

"You barely leave this room anymore." He said with a chuckle that I found quite unsettling too. "So may I cin?" "Yes... I mean, of course." "You seem in a good mood today." He said, I opened my mouth about to recount to him everything that had happened, but then I thought, Do I really want to hear what he had cto say instead? "Do I?" I responded, refusing to give anything out.
"Okay, Kaida-I have a plan; I know you don't like it here...
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying I should've been a better man; I'm saying I should have found a way for the both of us to escape all e these-"he motioned around with his hands. "I'm saying I shouldn't have forced you into the hands of a man like Alexander." "I can handle this..."
"You always try to be strong, but I know you are not. I know you are not okay with the fact that he spends the O nights with other women, and staying away from you for these few days maderealize something." "I don't understand what you are trying to say, Aric." "Then letshow you."
Aric leaned in and.... kissed me. I was momentarily stunned, frozen in place. Just then, the door swung open, and Alexander walked in.
