Chapter 53 The Vengeful Audrey
"I swear I will kill you all. Don\'t you dare think you will go scot-free by hiding behind that hideous animal skin because I know all your scents? I know you all by name," Audrey shouted furiously.
When she saw that threatening them would not work, Audrey resorted to pleading with them but the werewolves and vampires wouldn\'t let go of Joanna.
"Please that is enough," Tears fell from Audrey\'s eyes when she saw the sorry state her best friend was in.
She was badly tortured to the point that every part of her body was bleeding. Although her eyes were opened, Joanna could not move a muscle.
They didn\'t rape her as Audrey thought but they made sure they dealt seriously with her.
"Hey, what do you guys think you are doing?" Audrey yelled when she saw the two vampire guys lift Joanna towards the direction of the cliff.
And it happens that beneath that cliff lies the dreaded ANCIENT FOREST OF NO RETURN.
"Do you know the punishment for murder not to mention murdering the future Queen? Not even your third generation will be spared…,"
"You call this thing the future Queen?" The guy in the green shirt chuckled.
"Open your eyes tomboy because she is no Queen and even though she is a queen then she is nothing but the Queen of Disappointment?" The guy added. His words earned fierce laughter from his partner.
They continued walking. They stopped just at the edge of the cliff.
"No… no.. don\'t do it. Please…," Audrey pleaded with tears in her eyes. The boys acted like they didn\'t hear her. They violently threw Joanna off the cliff.
"You guys are crazy. You are out of your damn minds," Audrey broke down in tears.
"With her gone, everything will begin falling in place," the guy in the green shirt said with a broad smile on his face.
The guys and their werewolves\' companions abandoned Audrey there without setting her free.
The moment they let go Audrey crawled on her belly to the edge of the cliff.
"Why did it have to end like this? Why did I have to be such a useless friend? Why?" Audrey yelled in agony. Her voice echoed in the dense forest, waking up all the animals that were asleep.
The wind howled in response as its sweetness welcomed the body that was thrown into its embrace.
"I have suffered too much all my life to end up like this. I don\'t want my life to end like a joke. I deserve more than what I got from life. I, Joanna, refused to die."
Tears rippled through her face as she closed her eyes waiting for the final destination at death\'s door.
…
Audrey stomped into the Royal Palace Hotel in which the party was held with unsheathed double daggers in her hands.
Those who saw her gave way to her.
Audrey was out of her mind and everyone who passed by her could see it.
They could see the killing intent in her crimson red eyes.
Audrey halted in front of the hotel.
"Get out here, you murders," Audrey yelled at the top of her lungs.
She kept on shouting and breaking things she lay her hands on. She didn\'t spare the security guards who dared to stop.
People trooped outside the hotel because of the commotion Audrey was causing outside.
"Here are all the murders. Are you happy now that you have finally gotten rid of your eyesore?" Audrey\'s enraged gaze moved from one face to another.
"Tell me, are you all satisfied now?" Audrey charged forward with the daggers pointing at her front.
Everyone moved backwards in fear because of the way she was pointing the daggers at them.
"What are you talking about?" Tiffany decided to play the hero. She stepped forward from the crowd.
"I know that you have always been crazy but make your point clear even though you have gone nuts".
"Did you just say something?" Audrey shot Tiffany a murderous glare.
The furious Audrey vanished only to be seen standing in front of Tiffany. Audrey didn\'t give Tiffany the chance to assimilate what was going on, she grabbed Tiffany\'s neck tightly.
"I ask you, did you say something?" Audrey glared at Tiffany. She strangled her even harder.
Audrey ignored the numerous times Tiffany tapped her hand for her to release her neck.
Mrs Lopez standing in the crowd on seeing what her daughter was doing stepped out.
"Aud, that is enough!" Mrs Lopez shouted as she approached where Audrey stood with her hands still firmly choking Tiffany.
"You are gonna kill her at this rate so release her…,"
"That is exactly what I want," Audrey shouted for everyone to hear her voice.
"I am gonna kill every single person responsible for Joanna\'s death. I don\'t care about the consequences. All I know is that I will avenge her even if that\'s the last thing I do".
"I don\'t know what you are talking about but this is the Queen Mother\'s birthday party. Not even taking your life will be enough punishment for ruining…,"
"Don\'t worry, I don\'t mind offending the Queen Mother as long as I have my revenge," Audrey abruptly interrupted Nora.
"Also, you are the next in line after I am done with her so prepare your head for me because I am gonna make sure it\'s no longer joined to your head tonight," Audrey said fearlessly.
She acted like she didn\'t hear what the onlookers were saying.
"Let… Let… Let go, Audrey," Tiffany, who was on the brink of collapsing, tried to push Audrey\'s hands away but Audrey didn\'t budge.
"Where is your scoundrel of a cousin and his group of murderers\' friends? I want them right now so don\'t you dare test my patience," Audrey shouted. She let her eyes scrutinize the crowd in search of the one she was talking about.
"Since you won\'t stop then don\'t blame me for being merciless," Mrs Lopez charged forward to stop her daughter from committing more mistakes.
Audrey quickly pointed the dagger at the location of Tiffany\'s heart. Her mum stopped in her tracks. Audrey\'s actions left everyone dumbfounded.
"Mum, don\'t come anywhere closer because I will not hesitate to shove the dagger into her heart. Believe me".
Although she was staring at Audrey, Mrs Lopez thought she was staring at a stranger.
The one standing here might have the face of her beloved daughter but the rage in her eyes and her attitude made her think she was looking at a stranger.
How could the bloodthirsty lady standing in front of her be her sweet Audrey?
"You have gone crazy?" Doris grimaced.
Even though anyone had plans of challenging Audrey earlier because of how she was threatening them, none dared move an inch.
"Yes, I am crazy and get ready to see me go crazier," Audrey yelled.
Just then she sighted a guy in a brown suit standing among the crowds at her right-hand side.
"I will come back to you after I have taken care of your minions," Audrey violently throws Tiffany in the air, not minding the direction.
She charged toward the guy in a brown suit.
Audrey didn\'t waste her breath on the guy. She had already lost all her patience and how she attacked the man showed it.
The guy didn\'t want Audrey to do whatever she wanted with him. He put up a strong fight.
He had the illusion that he would win and earned the title of a hero but the vengeful Audrey didn\'t let her best friend down.
She had a sweet time tormenting him.
With the silver daggers, Audrey stabbed and pierced the guy repeatedly. All her attacks were cruel and merciless.
By the time she was done with him, blood was dripping from almost every part of his body. Even his face was not spared from her brutality.
[What has come over that daughter of mine]
Mrs Lopez was lost at what to do or say to stop Audrey.
"She was innocent. All Anna has ever wanted was to live a normal life but you guys made it impossible for her to achieve that," Audrey said. She sounded more like a person instead of a vengeful psychopath like earlier.
"You didn\'t only snatch that normal life from her but you dared to take away her life, why? What crime has she ever committed?" Tears rippled through Audrey\'s eyes when she recalled the terrible state Joanna was in after she failed to shift.
"I told you and your guys earlier in the forest that I am gonna rip out your hearts for what you did and that\'s exactly what I will do. A life for a life, that\'s real justice," Audrey wiped the tears from her eyes.
The misery in her eyes disappeared in the same manner it came.
In a flash, her fangs shoot out. She raised her right hand slightly.
"Audrey Lopez, don\'t be silly and let go of him," Mrs Lopez shouted in desperation.
Not only she but every other person could guess what she wanted to do from the few words she said.
"She is crazy,"
"Has she gone out of her mind?"
"Does she even know the son of whom she has brutalised like this?"
"How could a girl of her age be so brutal?"
"She is insane and someone should please stop her,"
Everyone talked all at once, making it impossible for a person to differentiate who was talking.
Audrey descended her hands with full force making the guy whom she had under her control shut his eyes.
"That\'s enough Miss Lopez," a guy appeared just in time to stop Audrey from making history with her public brutality.
Audrey didn\'t care to look at who held her hand. She hit the person very hard on the chest.
