The Amazing Pleasant

-//Chapter 12//-

Madeline paced the hall, bored. It had now been two months since Skulduggery was captured and locked up, two months Madeline has watched him for and two long months since they saw Skulduggery. Madeline hated this so much but what could she do about it, there was no way out of this without getting into a fight and fighting someone as old as Caelan isn't the smartest idea.

"Do you have your phone?" Madeline spoke while Skulduggery hummed to himself like the insane person he was.

"Do you?" She grew impatient, wanting the answer but he ignored her.

"For fuck sake." She grunted, then flicked her wrist sending him into the brink wall with a crack but before he got to his feet he was flung into to metal bars. Grabbing him by the neck with an evil smile on display she asked again.

"I don't like to repeat myself. I hope I didn't break your bones, Skull." Madeline laughed at her ridiculous joke.

"Nope not a scratch, thanks." Skulduggery smirked as Madeline's face drop.
"These bones are old but sure as hell tough. Did you know they went through a lot."

"Yer the war and all that shit, blar, blar, blar." Madeline rolled her eyes. Skulduggery was so fucking annoying with his massive ego. For two months she has had to listen to him tell all his fucking stories he know.

"Yer, they been through a lot more then what you just put me through."

"What?!"

"I don't like to repeat myself." Skulduggery pushed her off of him then turned walking towards the bed.

"I could fucking end you right now for what you just said to me."

"No you couldn't, your softer then the rest of the criminals I have fought." Madeline eyes turned pitch black, her breathing fasten, and her blood boiled.

"What gives you the idea you would have the chance to fight." She spat out. And just like that Skulduggery was lifted into the air by his neck. But skulduggery laughed.

"You do realize I'm a skeleton. I'm dead. I can't breathe so strangling me won't make me dead. I am already dead."

"DO YOU HAVE A PHONE?"

"Maybe."

"ITS A FUCKING YES OR NO." But skulduggery just shrugged knowing it is annoying her. He was flinging into the wall and tossed onto the hard mattress. Skulduggery let out a shaking breath as the black fog roamed his body despite to find a mobile device.

"WHY CANT YOU USE WORDS." Skulduggery smirked pissing Madeline off more. A another flicked and Skulduggery cried out in pain once hitting the wall.

"Your actions always have consequences." Madeline shook her head. "Now listen!" She demanded. Moving is bruised and hurt body pressing him into the bars with force. Skulduggery screamed in pain.

"STOP! STOP! PLEASE!"

"I thought that you were tough. I thought I was soft, oh god if you can't handle me how can you handle the other?" Madeline laughed evilly, oh how she loved being bad.

"Please?!" His body shook with pain. Madeline raised an perfectly shaped eyebrow.
"I'll corporate! I promise! I'll do anything."

"Good. That wasn't that hard. If only you corporates at the start you won't be in pain, now, would you?"

Skulduggery shook his head in defeat not wanting to anger her again.
"No, I won't be."

"Why you giving up so easily?"

"I want to live. I want to see my family. I want my magic back. I want to kick you and Caelan's fucking asses to the ground and watch to beg for me to stop. I want to watch you go through the pain I have gone through then died under my hands and my controls." Skulduggery smirked. Skulduggery was lifted and placed harshly onto the bed, by Madeline and her powers. He was glad Valkyrie nor Bella choose Necromancy.
