Chapter 21

Zero's POV

The sun was coming up when I assumed I was close to Jason's area

I had my shoes in my hand after an hour of walking in heels my feet started hurting and I was tripping every here and there

There was a building coming to view blinking a few times making sure it wasn't my imagination

Nope it's real and looks really familiar oh wait it's where Jason is living

I kept walking heading up the door steps slowly keeping myself awake

Knocking on the door running my hands through my hair for the hundredth time in past few hours

Someone swung open the door not caring who it was as I yawned keeping my focus on staying awake

"Zero" someone said sounding angry, blinking a few times I looked up seeing Jason there

"Yeah" I say coldly yawning again swaying a little "Get in here now" he said through gritted teeth

I walked in passing Jason but stopped turning towards Jason, "What took you so long" he said furiously

"I walked here" I said blankly doesn't he remember clearly he does but is complaining for who knows why again

He passed me and walked to the basement I followed behind

Getting to the bottom of the stairs heading to my old 'room' Jason grabbed my neck throwing me in the room

I rolled on the ground shutting my eyes not able to stay up anymore and welcomed the dark

Waking up I noticed I was back in the concrete box that's suppose to be my room

I heard footsteps outside the door I scurried up running to the door just as it opened

Jason looked down and I looked where he was looking, I forgot about borrowing the shirt

Shrugging the thought off looking up "Who's shirt is that" Jason growled at me

"Some guys-" I didn't get to finish as Jason slammed me against the wall

"You slept with another guy" he said outraged, he thinks I slept with someone last night no mostly I was running from a guy

"No I didn't were did you get that idea" I asked harshly pushing him off me "Sure that's why your wearing some guys shirt and his scent is all over you" he said sounding the same

"We got in a fight blood was all over my shirt so he gave me his" I said backing away from Jason

My neck doesn't hurt anymore and the bruise on my stomach should be healing quickly

Jason was heading towards the showers, "I give you ten minutes and you better be out here" he said sternly and walking away

Probably getting some clothes I rushed in the showers scrubbing myself clean

Getting done quickly and seeing the clothes on the seat I changed in the sweats and t-shirt not seeing my old clothes

I opened the door and Jason turned around sniffing the air, do I still smell bad I pulled my arm up to my nose smelling it

Nothing bad it smells clean I just took a shower looking at Jason he seemed relieved and that confused me even more

He pulled me to him grabbing my face and kissing me patiently I wasn't kissing him back

Giving me one last kiss he grabbed my hand dragging me up the stairs

We passed the kitchen and to the training field, starting drills after drills

I was on my knees holding my hands above my head trying to breath

"Stand up" Jason said annoyed, there's a thing called breathing that I need to control 'agree with that' Lacie said

I got up putting my hands on my knees controlling my breathing better "Weak" he whispered under his breath

Snapping my head up to him "What did you say" I said standing up looking him straight in the eyes

"I said your Weak" he said walking towards me giving me a disgusted look
and with hatred

"I wish I was weak so I would die and be away from you" I said calmly thinking of how nice that would be

He growled pushing me to the ground making me fly back a few feet landing on my back

I got up laughing humorously, he's mad at this he's soft and has feelings for me making everything personal

"Well you are weak I'm surprised your still alive" he said smugly smirking at me

"Maybe I should get a better trainer so I can actually fight and not be weak" I said keeping my emotions hidden

"Your MINE nobody else's" he said through gritted teeth clenching his jaw

"I'm not yours I don't belong to you or anyone" I said calmly feeling the anger rise in me

"I don't think that's how it works" he said smirking at me crossing his arms over his chest

"Why not" I said putting my hands in my pocket feeling relaxed knowing I don't belong to anyone

"You've been with me for years I own you and I'm keeping it that way" he said sternly

"Unless I loose a fight or die randomly" I say as a matter of fact, he growled at me pinning me to the floor

"I want to fight Skylar" I said abruptly knowing I could push a few buttons of Jason's

"No your not fighting her just so you can die faster" he said furiously I closed my eyes forgetting about Jason for a second

"Scared you'll loose a fighter" I said my eyes still closed, I felt his breath on my face

Opening my eyes Jason was leaning down looking at my eyes with anger in them

He leaned his forehead onto mine still looking at me "Zero you need to stop okay" every word he said his lips brushed mine lightly

Growling at him lowly to were he could only hear it "Get off me" I said as my teeth grew out more skimming his lips

There was a noise of thunder and lightning, drops of cold water dripped down on us slowly

"Zero stop pushing me away" he begged still with anger in his voice

"I'd rather die" I said about to shift from under him, he grabbed my neck preventing me from shifting digging his nails into my skins

Both of us were growling at each other I put my hands on his chest pushing him with a lot of force making him fly back a few feet

I shifted looking around me finding Jason that shifted as well baring his teeth at me

"Shift back Zero" someone said I looked over seeing Evan standing there calmly

Ignoring him focusing on Jason he charged at me full speed nocking me back a few feet

Getting back up growling at him challengingly the fight

He shifted back shaking with anger "Zero shift back NOW" he said yelling at me

I took a defensive position daring him to back down there was a clicking noise distracting me

Evan was holding a gun aiming at my head his eyes told me that this will end only two ways

One me dying here or shift and I'll be through hell in seconds

Lacie was whimpering 'what's wrong' I said worried about her 'I wanted to make it out of here not die in here' she said howling in pain

I can't do this to her I'll never give her a life better than this if I ever do get a life outside of this

"What's your choice" Evan said without a care in the world, I stepped back dropping my body to the floor

I shifted back feeling my body drained from everything I've ever worked for

Evan walked towards me handing me a shirt, I slipped it on numbly not knowing what to do anymore
