SERAPHINA POVI woke up in a dark and damp room with my limbs feeling heavy. As my eyes came into focus, I realized that my wrists and ankles were bound to a metal bedframe. When I looked down at myself I was changed into one of my old nightgowns, instead of the clothes that I had come to the packhouse in. How Allister still had this was beyond me. It was in that moment that I realized where Allister had taken me. I was in the cells that were under the pack house. I knew from watching my father handle prisoners, that this was not a place you wanted to be if you didn’t have to. Although I couldn’t see into the next cell, I knew I was down here alone. I also knew that on the opposite side of my cell would be the “interrogation chair.” As I closed my eyes, I pictured the tools used to get information out of the prisoners put in the chair. A shiver went through me at the memory. The smell of piss, mildew, and other things that I didn’t care to bring a name to permeated my nostrils. As I

Allister POV After sending a text to my pack’s I looked down at Alpha Samuel’s sleeping form as he took in deep, short breaths. It was almost time for Samuel to meet the Moon Goddess. I took out the last vial of wolfsbane and placed the needle in the vial to get its remaining contents into the shot. I brought the injector up to the light and flicked the glass to ensure there were no airbubbles. “No hard feelings, Samuel. But, it’s time this pack has a true alpha.” I looked at his sleeping form. “And right now you just aren’t meeting the mark.”As I plunged the liquid into Samuel’s IV, I heard a gasp and the sound of something falling on the ground. I let out a curse and quickly turned to see Chrissy standing in the doorway with her hands covering her mouth. Before she could move, I moved with supernatural speed to where she was standing and yanked her into the room before anyone could see her. The last thing I needed was anymore collateral damage. I slammed the door behind us, maki

Seraphina POVI wish I could say that my time in cells got better, however the joke was on me. I went without food and water until just two hours prior to the funeral service for my father. Why hadn’t Callan come to check on me. I fully expected that once he spoke to me on the phone that he would race here and demand that he see me.I had just finished my second piece of bread when Allister walked back down the cellar stairs and demanded that I stand up. Joke was on him. My injuries had only worsened without any sort of nourishment or medicine intervention. Standing would be impossible. When I didn’t move, Allister came over and pulled me by the hair. I screamed in agony as I felt like my hair was being pulled out of my scalp. “Get up Seraphina, its time to get yourself cleaned up,” Allister growled out. Before we got to the stairs, I found my footing and stumbled up the stairs as he continued to drag me.Not one staff member who saw us said anything to stop Allister. Staff who h

Seraphina POV Seraphina POVI wasn’t sure how long I was unconscious for, however what I was sure was that the side of my neck was throbbing and my body felt heavier than anything i’d ever felt. Slowly my eyes opened and came into focus. My brows knitted together in confusion. I was laying on a plush bed, but not one I recognized; in an all white sterile room. The curtains in the small white room were open, letting the sun drift into the room. When I looked down at my body I had a hospital gown on and tubes coming off of my arms. I must be in the pack hospital. As I touched the side of my neck that was hurting, a petite red head girl came into the room holding a clipboard with a bright smile. “Luna! You’re awake,” she beamed. Luna. That was not what I was expecting to hear. Everything came together like a wave crashing to shore. My neck, the girl calling me “Luna”…. The fucker had marked me!“Where’s Alpha Callan?” I asked, ignoring her pleasantries. The nurse gave me a sympatheti

Callan POVI stumbled to my room, nearly falling to ground from blinding, boiling pain of my insides. “Sir, are you alright?” one of the guards who was standing outside my bedroom suite, asked. I waved him off, letting him know I was fine. “Gentlemen, do not anyone interrupt me for anything.” Both acknowledged me with understanding. The other guard opened the door for me. Immediately I was met with the overwhelming scent of Sera. My dick twitched in my pants just from the mere proximity to her. I had stayed away for this reason. I was pissed at her for almost getting herself killed. But I was more mad at myself for not trying to get to her sooner. I heard small cries coming from the bathroom. A wolf going through their first heat was one of the most painful experiences, even more so if the wolf did not have their mate to ease the pain. I grabbed her underarms, to pull her out of the boiling hot tub that was masking her intense scent. Yup. She was definitely in heat. As soon as
