Helene"What do you want?" I asked with a frown on my face as soon as I saw who it was that was standing in front of my cell.I was already expecting him to show up sooner or later, but I made up my mind earlier that I wasn't going to indulge him in any sort of conversation because he was only going to try to intimidate me, and I wouldn't let him get to me."I'm pretty sure that you can already guess what I want, and you can wipe that frown off your face because I'm not here to pick a fight with you," he replied, and I mentally rolled my eyes at him."I think we can both agree on the fact that it's not for us not to get into an argument, so there is no need for you to try to act nicely because I'm not going to fall for whatever game you're trying to play with me," I told him off quickly because I wasn't buying his words at all.We've known each other for a few weeks now, but we've only had conversations a few times because he and I could not just get along, and since I've already est
Helene"Come on out, Missy!" The new guard assigned to my cell ordered suddenly, and I furrowed my brows in confusion."What did you say?" I asked, trying to make sure that I had heard correctly.I needed to be sure that she just instructed me to come out because I hadn't been asked to leave this cell since I arrived here, and hearing her tell me to come out didn't seem believable."Are you deaf or something, kid? I said, ``Come on out, Missy!" She repeated herself, and now my question was why she was asking me to come out and why she sounded so rude for absolutely no reason.I didn't even realize I had a new guard until yesterday, when she certainly showed up in front of my cell and yelled at me for singing too loudly.I noticed yesterday that she didn't like me very much, and I hated the fact that she was taking out her anger on me when I didn't even do anything wrong to provoke her."Listen, Lady, I don't know who you think you are or how important you feel simply because you have
Helene The first thing I noticed about the place was how ugly and repulsive the interior was.I mean, it's not like I was expecting anything grand, but it should at the very least not be such an eyesore. They didn't even make an effort to make the place look the least bit humane, and it legit felt like I was walking through hell because almost everywhere was dark and dirty, and my goodness, don't even get me started on the disgusting smell, and the only thing giving this place illumination was a few barely lit touches.The place looked exactly how I've always imagined that prison would look, and it was even slightly worse than I thought."What's wrong, kiddo? Are you shocked? Are you surprised to see what it really looks like outside your cute little comfort space?" My stupid guardian demon asked, and I rolled my eyes at her without bothering to respond.I honestly don't understand what it is that she really wants from me, but I'm getting the feeling that she's only trying to scare m
Brenda "What did you just say?" I asked again to make sure that I had heard correctly."I said, Alpha Hunter, your boyfriend, took away his mate's special privilege, and now the kid has been thrown into the den of wolves to survive on her own," Keisha answered, and I calmly took a step back to process what she just said.It occurred to me that she just mentioned something about Hunter taking away his mate's privileges, and I knew that the news was supposed to make me happy, but for some reason, I was a lot more bothered by the fact that he had done that.I couldn't even explain exactly why I was bothered, but something just didn't feel right to me, and I couldn't be completely satisfied that he had only taken away her privilege.When I found out that she was thrown in prison, I was happy about it because I felt like keeping her in prison would mean that Hunter had no intention of paying attention to her, and I expected him to come to me and explain things to me, but he didn't even in
Helene "Who do you think you are to be walking around here with that look on your face?"I almost panicked when her hoarse voice questioned me, but then I remembered what Owen had told me about showing fear, and I quickly had to snap out of it."What look?" I asked, wearing an unreadable expression on my face.If I were being honest with myself, I was very nervous right now because I had never had to deal with this kind of situation before, and I had no idea how things could turn out or what I should say to avoid a confrontation.I wasn't in the mood to have any sort of argument or get into a fight with anyone, especially people like them, but knowing the kind of person that I am, I don't trust myself to hold back should they try to do something or say something that I may find annoying.The hoarse-voiced lady wasn't seated alone, and she had about four other scary-looking women seated at the same table with her, but I made sure not to make eye contact with any of them because I didn
HunterA week later..."What is with that sore look on your face, little cousin?" Aurora's familiar voice asked from behind me, and I turned to look at her with a tired look on my face."Is it that obvious?" I asked."I could already tell from afar that you had a lot on your mind, and that's the main reason why I stopped to approach you. So, what's up with you, and why do you have that look on your face?" She asked with a hint of concern in her tone.I let out a frustrated sigh before tapping the space on the bench I was seated on, gesturing for her to take a seat.I had so much on my mind at the moment, but I needed to let it out and thought I needed to talk to somebody to gather my thoughts and also figure out what to do about the situation that I was in.I haven't spoken to Aurora about anything concerning my mate, and that is mainly because Aurora is usually never around and she and I only have very serious conversations once in a while."I'm pretty sure you've already heard this
HeleneA few hours earlier...It's been about now since I started to frequent the cafeteria, and I haven't experienced what I experienced on my first day here because I've been more careful, and even though I'm aware that they're watching me, I've been making sure to keep my distance and also stay very close to the idiot that was guarding me.As much as I could not stand the woman for being so talkative, I needed her to stick around me because I didn't want to get into a fight just yet, and I was waiting for the perfect timing to carry out the plan that Owen had advised me on a few days ago.I wasn't too sure if it was the right thing for me to do because I could end up doing things wrongly and getting hurt very badly, but I still wanted to try it because it was the only option that seemed doable for me at the moment, and I'm already desperate to leave this place, so I had no other choice. Even though I have been keeping my distance from these people, I haven't failed to notice the d
Helene I panted heavily as I watched the chaos unfold right before my very eyes. Everything was going according to plan, and as much as it scared me that things could turn upside down in a split second, it still thrilled me to see how things would end eventually.The plan I had was simple. All I needed to do was provoke the beasts that already had their eyes on me, and then I made sure that I got into a messy fight with them so that I could end up getting injured. The injury isn't going to be serious, and it most probably won't be coming from them, but I intend to make them look like villains and make myself into a victim.I'm aware that the plan sounds ridiculous, and I'm also aware that if care isn't taken, I could end up getting into serious trouble, getting hurt in ways I didn't want, or even worse, getting killed.The people I was dealing with were experienced criminals, and I could have ended up making things difficult for myself by provoking them but judging by the scene I was
