Enzo's POV:

I wake up in a cell, the bars smell of wolfsbane and the air stinks of vervain which makes me feel weak. Esme is chained to the wall on the other side of the room, I can smell the wolfsbane on the chains too.

"Evening." Xavier says, making himself known.

"Vervain in the air. Really?" I question.

"Well I'm not going to use wolfsbane, that'll weaken me." He chuckles.

"I'm not your enemy Xavier." I snap.

"But your helping her so that doesn't exactly put us on good terms." He replies. "I need to go help protect the house from people like her, I'll be back in an hour."

Esme's POV:

I hear the mumbles of Xavier before he leaves, slamming the door behind him. My body begins to awaken as well as my mind and instantly pain rushes through my body. "Ahh!" I scream as the wolfsbane on the chains burns my body. I can't escape it, the metal clings to me. "Owwww." I sob.

"Esme." Enzo says from his cell.

"It burns!" I scream. "It burns so bad!"

Enzo's POV:

It pained me to watch her hurt and I couldn't listen to her screams or watch her flesh being burnt any longer. "Esme!"

"Please... please make it stop." She pleads, moving around under the burning chains.

Wolfsbane didn't hurt me as much as the average werewolf as only werewolf half felt pain and my vampire part didn't. However the vampire part of my was being burnt by the laced vervain air.

Esme's POV:

Suddenly, Enzo walks towards the bars and slams his hands against the bars, he instantly begins calling out in pain as he pulls the bars apart. The yelling lasts for about two minutes, I close my eyes finding it unbearable to watch him in pain.

I open my eyes when he stops screaming to see him stepping out of the gap in the bars that he'd created. I wine in pain as I watch him come closer to me. "It's going to be okay." He says, kissing my cheek.

"Wh.. what are you doing?" I ask through gritted teeth.

He takes a deep breathe before ripping the wolfsbane cuffs off my ankles and wrists; his flesh sizzles with every touch of the cuffs but he quickly drops them to the ground before hugging me.

"Thank you." I breathe out, burying my head in his neck.

"Come on let's get you out of here." He says, pulling me up to my feet. Thankfully, both our wounds heal in seconds and we creep up the stairs.

We speed out of the back and through the woods, I run faster than I ever have before and follow Enzo to where ever he's taking me. "Where are we going?"

"When Alex bought me back to life, I saw all over the woods. There's a small basement somewhere that used to be used for god knows what." He explains.

"You got bought back to life? Of corse you did."

We arrive in minutes and head down the stairs to the abandoned cellar. It's dark and damp down here but better than the Crescent moon pack house.
