Chapter Thirty-Two - Stained
Reyna's POV
My fingers and toes were completely numb. The cold had worked its way down to my bones. My throat felt like sandpaper as I swallowed. Ivan didn't bother to unstrap me from the chair. Leaving me here all night to freeze, hoping it would break me.
The dress I wore was anything but warm and weighed a tone from being soaked again and again. My feet were also left bare. That had me guessing they were smart enough to know I would have used them as weapons.
The shuffling of shoes against the gravel path grabbed my attention. I lifted my head slowly, ignoring the aches it caused my body to move. My eyelids felt like weights as I forced them to stay open.
"Are you ready to talk now?" Ivan asked. A sadistic smile spread across his lips as he eyed me. I stared back at him, hating how much we looked alike. I shifted in the chair and spat it in his direction.

She excused herself from the office, and I was too much of a coward or too bullheaded to follow her.Maybe even both.I knew she was safe on pack territory, and even Flint agreed that we should give her some space. But I didn't expect it to bother me so damn much.So now I'm sitting at the island in the packhouse, nursing a cup of coffee silently beside Lincoln."Think this is the longest you've gone without speaking.

For a moment, everything felt completely normal until I opened my eyes and was greeted by the unfamiliar room once again.This time it looked different as the sun peaked through the window. It's warmth kissing the ebony wood floors. The walls were almost black in colour, matching the curtains. The desk was covered in books and paperwork. And when I looked at the bookshelf, I could see the titles of the books that were both old and new, a couple I had never seen before. Most were books about cities and different countries. But there were a few novels thrown in there too.My stomach sent out another reminder of the food that wa
