Filed To Story: Their Bullied and Broken Mate by Teri Petry
I gave a little laugh and she looked at me all confused. I shook my head and told her that I was just happy she was enjoying her juice. Liam had also brought him and I breakfast burritos and Melian some scrambled eggs with tomatoes and spinach mixed in them. I had never seen anyone so happy to have scrambled eggs before. “How did you know I liked my eggs this way? All that is missing is ketchup,” she asked. Liam and I looked at each other and at the same time questioned her about the ketchup.
All she could say was she learned to eat a lot of things with ketchup because her stepmother couldn’t cook, and she usually got the leftovers from dinner all mixed together. They would allow her to have salt, pepper and ketchup in her room since she didn’t eat with them at the table usually. So she had gotten so used to eating things with a tasty red condiment that it was second nature now. She promised she would try to taste things in a new light, especially since she wasn’t eating scraps anymore, and that made us both very happy. She surprises us every day with the things she is willing to compromise and try.
Nick and Rico came in to inform us that the RC would be here in two days, and that it would probably be best to go start questioning our attackers. We agreed and told Mel what we were doing. She went stiff and took a deep breath. “I want to know everything they say, please. Even if you think it will hurt me, understand?” she demanded. We both promised and kissed our mate before we walked out with our Gamma and Beta. We passed Jason, Rebecca and little Trinity in the hall, and Rebecca insisted Jason go with us. He kissed his family and turned to go with us. These interviews were either going to be lots of fun, or pure hell. I was determined for both to happen. Fun for us, hell for them.
We got to the cell house and the first person we grabbed was the world’s shittiest daddy. “Wakey Wakey daddy in law!” I bellowed while beating on the door with a pipe wrench. He glared at us and tried being a smart ass by asking what pleasure it was for us to wake him or some crap. Jason wished old dad a good morning, and let him know his day was about to suck. He had the balls to laugh at that comment and shake his head at Jason and told us to get this day over with already.
Rico walked into the cell very cockily and informed him that he would be shackled and not to try anything with his wolf. Surprisingly, he held out his wrists and before he could pull back, Rico stuck him with a syringe with wolfsbane. David was instantly pissed and asked what Rico had done. Rico replied that he had dosed him with wolfsbane to subdue his wolf. We weren’t giving him any chances to try anything dirty. Nick went in and helped walk David to the interrogation room.
His people were calling out to him, but he surprisingly ignored them. That is until we passed his son, Todd’s cell. They exchanged looks and I knew that he was sending some kind of signal to his son, and once Nick noticed, he practically drug him forward and pushed him into the room for his questioning. He stood and looked around for a minute before I walked in with what Liam calls my ‘death glare from hell’ and threw the wrench on the table. I looked at my monster-in-law and said, “Sit your ass down, David. We have a list of questions that need answers.”
He hesitated so I pushed him into the chair and Nick quickly locked his shackles to the brackets on the floor next to the chair. Liam pushed the cart with our “tools” over to the table where our chairs were. I walked over and sat next to my brother, our Gamma and our Beta. I leaned forward with my elbows on the table and looked this piece of shit right in the eyes and asked, “Want to tell us why the hell you found it necessary to abuse your own daughter for 13 years? Then again, I don’t know why the fuck I’m asking. You WILL be telling us, one way or another.” I put on my gloves and picked up one of the tools on the cart and moved around the table and leaned against it, standing in front of him.
“I’m waiting, David.” He shook his head and I moved towards him, taking the silver scalpel and cutting across his cheek. He screamed out in pain, and Liam walked up to him and whispered in his ear. “Buckle up bitch! We are just getting started!”
Taking the bait
*Liam POV*
Just being in the same room with this worthless piece of garbage had Rocko ready to come forward and take over. “Get up and go help your brother!” he yelled at me. I was already going to, but his persistence drove me to get up and do it now. I made my way to David and bent down and whispered in his ear as he was screaming in pain from the cuts Loki was making to his face, “Buckle up Bitch! We are just getting started!”
After a few more cuts, Loki told him again to explain himself, and again he just glared at my brother. I sucker punched him in the face a few times and he spat at us again. This time, Loki showed him no mercy and as I hit one side of his face, Loki hit the other. Rico had to step in or we would definitely have beaten him to death. Nick grabbed my arm and I turned to swing at him before realizing who had touched me.
He threw his hands up in surrender and yelled, “Whoa…Whoa! Dude, it’s me!” I snapped out of my daze and grabbed him into a hug to apologize. Rico was fighting to hold on to Loki as he tried to get ahold of David again. “LOKI! STOP!” I demanded. He started to calm down and I grabbed each side of his face and asked if he was good. He nodded his head and said, “He is tight-lipped at the moment. Take him back to his cell. No food and minimal water until otherwise instructed.
What food he does get will be left over dinner scraps. He can also have some ketchup packets. Also, another shot of wolfsbane to keep his wolf dormant.” Smirking, Loki left the room to get some air. Nick looked at me confused and asked, “Ketchup?” I chuckled and told him we would explain later. He and Rico took David back to his cell and as they were walking I yelled for them to go get Eric when they were done. Rico acknowledged what I said and I stepped outside with Loki. “You alright bro?” I asked him.
He started laughing and said he was good, but also asked If it was wrong that he enjoyed what had just happened. “What do you think? Do you feel it was wrong?” I questioned, and he shook his head. “That felt amazing. With every punch I thought of everything that we had been told about what they did to her. I wanted to keep going, but I’m thankful Rico stopped me. I would have killed him.” he stated matter of factly. I nodded in agreement when I noticed Jason coming out of the cell house.
Loki hollered to him to join us, and he came over. He looked like he was having a hard time, and Loki put his arm around him. “You know, if it’s too hard, you can go back to the hospital,” Loki told him. He shook his head and replied, “It’s not hard at all. I feel weird because I find myself enjoying watching it happen.” I burst out laughing and both of them joined in. Jason also asked to sit in on the questioning of Eric, and if possible, try to help get him to talk. “So you are saying is, you want to help torture your family into talking?” He nodded his head, looking like a cat that ate the canary.
Loki and I agreed to allow it, and I called the pack house kitchen to have one of the omega’s bring us some food. It was now early afternoon and if this was going to last awhile we needed to eat. I smacked Loki on the back and told him we needed to get back in to talk to Eric. Both of us looked like we had taken a bath of blood from David’s face, and hopefully it was enough to slightly scare Eric.
We let Jason go in first to see if maybe Eric would mouth off to him, and sure enough, he started to almost immediately taunt him. “Baby brother! So nice to see you. Even if you are a little piece of shit traitor. I knew I should have killed you that night. Then again, I didn’t think you would take her and run like the coward you are.” he spat at Jason.
