CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEENJENNY’S POVWe were tossed into the cell and I heard Kira grunt in pain while she tossed left and right and I could tell that she was in pain. I tried to crawl to her and see if I could help make her feel better but Rita held me back and I looked at her. She looked like she was about to pass out too. I stared at her, wondering what she was about to do.“I’ll take care of it. You’re in pain so you should lie down” she said to me and I stared at her dress that had red stains too and I could tell that it was obviously her blood.“You’re hurt too. I want to help” I insisted and she shook her head while wincing in pain. I couldn’t help but wonder what Alpha Baron did to her but I knew she wasn’t going to tell even if I asked her. She quickly kept a straight face again and held me even tighter by the wrist while shaking her head at me.“I know what to do so just lay down and try to heal the burn to its minimum, Jenny. It looks like it hurts too much” she re
RITA’S POVMy mind was running so many miles at a time as it filled with a million thoughts. I couldn’t process any thought at a time, my head was beginning to get all jumbled with scary and depressing thoughts, and for the first time in many years, I found myself back in the place I was when I was still trying to understand my powers and how to use them. I was back in that dark place and it felt like I was losing my mind. I remembered how the guilt used to crush me every day knowing that I almost killed someone with my power and how I was always warned; every minute and every moment about how dangerous my powers were, how I needed to control my temper so as not get anyone killed and it was a very mind crushing period of my life.That was exactly how I felt at the moment and it was all thanks to Jenny’s old mate, Alpha Baron. I couldn't deny it, I was sad that I was in such a situation. Kidnapped, getting beaten, and tortured every day in different ways without even knowing when I wo
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTEENRITA’S POVI found myself crawling back, away from Sam as he inched toward me while trying to calm me down and I shook my head at him continuously but he wouldn’t stop coming closer. So I held my hand out to him and he stopped. “Don’t come any closer to me” I said to him and he sighed.“I can explain Rita. I can tell you everything that happened to me and why and how I have this power. That is the sole reason why I’m here now,” he said to me and I felt myself calming down after letting his words sink in.I kept my eyes trained on him so he wouldn’t do anything unexpected to Kira or Jenny and when he saw that I was willing to listen to him, he sat down in the spot I asked him to stop and I could see that he wanted to give me space while he spoke. He probably wanted to leave it up to me to decide if I wanted him close or not. I watched him brush his fingers through his hair while looking away from me and he looked like he was preparing himself to start s
RITA’S POV“I’m sorry, I got too focused on my celebration and hugged you,” I said to quickly get rid of the awkwardness between us and he chuckled while shaking his head at me.“It's nothing, really. I don’t mind” he replied, then he took my hand and linked our fingers together. My eyes instinctively grew wide at his gesture and I snapped my head to look at him.He was smiling at me and I could feel my cheeks getting red under his stare. So this was how Jenny felt about my brother anytime he was flirting with her. I felt so nervous I could pass out at the moment but I didn’t want to let him know that so I tried to keep a straight face even though the blush creeping its way up my cheeks had failed me.“We’re mates after all, this was bound to happen,” he added and I bit my lower lip before I nodded my head in agreement. A moment of silence then passed since we had nothing else to talk about at the moment. Then I remembered, we still hadn’t finalized our plan on how to get Kira out of
JENNY’S POVThe day wore on lazily and all I did was sit and stare at nothing in particular because it was just an empty cell. There was nothing in it except for me, Rita, and Kira. so there was basically nothing for us to do to pass the time. All we could do was sit or sleep and hope that Alpha Baron wouldn’t come for us anytime soon.I was still in awe after finding out about Rita’s mate, Sam, and how he was able to heal our wounds for us.It was quite shocking to take in the fact that he was an alpha. A rogue alpha without a pack because Alpha Baron took everything from him… including his family and he had been plotting his revenge for years. I felt sorry for him and I was glad that we met him because now, he could join hands with us and get back at Alpha Baron for all that he did to him. He was finally going to get his revenge after so many years of wallowing in pain and loneliness and maybe then he would finally be happy after seeking justice for his family and subjects that got
JENNY’S POVThe footsteps got closer and closer and by the time they stopped, I could tell they were right in front of the cell. I heard Alpha Baron growl before he punched the wall and I could hear his heavy breathing from where I lay. He was very angry and we expected it. All I hoped for was for him not to pour his anger on us. It was going to be very fatal for us and I didn’t think I was strong enough to go through another painful episode with him.I heard the breaking of the debris of cement that lay on the floor and I knew Alpha Baron was coming closer to check on us. Rita immediately linked her mind with mine and she warned me in a very stern voice not to move or breathe if I wanted to live and if we wanted him to believe that we were attacked. I replied to her at once not to worry and immediately we had the link broken, I felt his breath on my face.My body instantly became more rigid and I held my breath, making sure my eyelids didn’t quiver as I felt his hand push my hair awa
ALPHA DAMON’S POVWe weren’t making any progress. We had tried all that we could and no one was willing to help us get any information on Jenny and Rita because they all claimed they didn’t want to get on the Lycan king’s bad side. It was obvious that Baron got on their good side. Maybe he even cooked up some lie for them to make them think I was the bad one and now, there was no one to help me get them out. I had to do this myself and the only way was to use force. I had to do what I hated most and that was attacking the pack with my guards to get Rita and Jenny out.I sighed while pinching the bridge of my nose in distress and I closed my eyes. A headache was setting in and my head was aching so badly. I had a lot on my plate, a lot to think about ad there seemed to be no progress for me as far as I had gone.“All done alpha Damon. I will take my leave now” the nurse who was assigned to monitor my progress said, breaking through the silence in the room while Darwin and Sylvia typed
RITA’S POVWe were still locked up in the new room that Alpha Baron took us to and Jenny was sitting in a corner of the room on the floor. I knew she was famished because I felt the same way I wondered if Sam was going to bring us dinner again. I wondered if he was even safe after helping Kira escape and I wondered if she had gotten to the pack already.It had been a day since she left and for the first time, alpha Baron didn’t come for us to torture us like he always did every morning. No guard came too so we were all alone throughout the day which was also the cause of the terrible hunger we were feeling. No one also brought us anything to eat and I was sure it was one of alpjha Denver’s ways to torture us too.I sighed while rolling my eyes and throwing my head back before I stood up from the table posed as a bed for us and I walked over to Jenny. She looked up at me before I bent and sat beside her on the floor and she rested her head against the wall. She looked very tired and we
