Peter awoke to Wade shaking him. He was laid on the couch, his head propped up by pillows. "W-Wade?" Peter asks shakily, a hint of fear in his voice. Wade pulled him into a hug, but Peter screamed, clawing his way out of the embrace.
"Don't touch me. Don't touch me." He yelled, over and over again, backing himself into a corner. Wade held up his hands, trying to fight back tears. What did they do to Peter to make him like this. Peter had a panicked expression on his pale face. There was still hints of black on his arms and neck, although they were quickly retreating.
"Peter I'm not going to hurt you. I am going to take you home okay." Wade didn't wait for a response. He took Peter by the arms and held him to his chest to stop the struggling. Wade closed his eyes and pictured Peter's room. Within a few seconds they were standing in the middle of the bedroom.
Steve and Tony were sat hand in hand on Peter's bed. When they saw their son appear they ran over to him with open arms. But Peter screamed, backing up the wall, using his powers to push himself out of reach. Tony instantly burst into tears at the sight. "Peter, its us. We won't hurt you. Please come down." Steve whispered, fighting back his own tears. Peter shook his head vigorously, pointing a shaky hand at Wade.
"That's what he said. But he lied. He LIED." Wade filled with anger at those words. Balling his fists, he turned away and muttered "I would never hurt you Peter" before disappearing into thin air.
That made Peter even more terrified, as he started to scan the room for any signs of the mercenary. "He's not gone. I can sense him." Peter says, as if to himself.

"Peter its just us here. he has gone." Peter glared at Tony, his eyes cold and black. "Get out." He said in a low tone. Tony shook his head, inching closer to his son. "Get. Out." Steve grabbed his husbands arm and dragged him out of the room. As soon as the door closed, Peter started crying.
He stayed glued to the wall, every now and then taking in his surroundings carefully.
I need help. I am losing control. It's like I am trapped in my head, being forced to say things i don't wanna say, do things I don't want to do.
"Leave me alone!" I scream into the darkness.
"You aren't getting rid of me any time soon Peter. We need each other."
"I don't need you. I don't want you."
"Oh Peter, you don't know what you want. You thought you wanted Wade until you found out who he was. Once you see what I can do, what we can do together, you will never doubt me again."
"No, Stop it. I don't need you, I will never need you. Now stay quiet or I will tell my dads about you. They will figure out how to get you out."
"Suit yourself. but I am warning you Peter, if you ignore me I will hurt you in every way possible."
I bang my head against the wall, causing pain to shoot across my skull and down my spine. The voice dies down, as it does I regain control of my body. I shuffle down the wall and unsteadily walk to my bed.
I wrap myself in the sheets, still in my torn up suit. I fall asleep tracing the curving black lines across my arms, hoping that the voice doesn't come back.
And it didn't. For a while.

Silver Fox and the Western Hero
Author's Note. This is book 7! Please feel free to hop on and enjoy! If you find you like my writing style, I hope you'll check out the first 6 books, all available to read on Kindle Unlimited, link below!) Alex was dying, and all the millions his father had left him meant nothing. The life he had been so eager to embrace, to do the memory of his father proud, would soon come to an end. Cancer. That ugly, terrible word. He had tried to be strong for his mother, even when the treatments left him violently ill, his body wracked with pain, his friends and even his girlfriend leaving him almost as fast as his once impressive physique wasted to nothing under the ravages of his illness. And just when he thought all hope was dead, a couple discrete referals placed by high-powered friends of his family got him an exclusive spot at the most sophisticated cryonic facility in the world. He didn't know if there was such a thing as an afterlife, but part of the package included uploading a copy of his cortex into a digital universe filled countless worlds to explore, where he could embrace whatever class or profession he could dream of. All of which sounded hell of a lot better than the miserable death waiting for him in the real world. In the end, he signed the paperwork, putting his pathetic flickering life in the hands of potential quacks and charlatans. After all, with death just days away, what did he have to lose? Even if he could never be successfully revived, he could at least adventure his heart out. (Authors Note: Books 1-6 are now live on Amazon and here is a link if you wanted to check it out! And I will continue to post chapters to Book 6 here first, until that tale is told! I hope you enjoy! And if you wanted to help support my work by checking out book 1 on Amazon, I would be extremely grateful!)
