I could feel the warm blood dripping down my back.

The Gamma, who unexpectedly entered my cell and ordered me to face the wall, gave me so many lashes that I almost passed out in pain. Twenty ruthless lashes on my back, and the flesh turned swollen and raw. My knees trembled as tears rolled down my face, questioning life and why I had to suffer like this.
Every inch of me ached, and I couldn’t move. It was so cold, and every joint in my body felt stiff while the wounds were burning despite the extreme drop in temperature inside my isolated cell. I couldn’t remember the last time I had water or decent food. I was deteriorating here, and I didn’t know what my husband was doing or if my kids were safe with their babysitters at Liam’s. I had to find a way to get out of here.
I needed to ensure Devon and Diana were doing well. They must be distressed now that I have suddenly disappeared again. What did Dominic tell them this time? What would happen if they discovered that I was in prison? I never wanted them to get into trouble, just like the last time when I almost lost them in the hands of the Black Claw criminals… I couldn’t stay here and wait while my kids were in danger.
How many days had I spent in this place? Five days? A week? Since day three, I haven’t heard anything about Dominic. He stopped showing himself. Did he get tired of me already? Did something awful happen that he couldn’t spare a minute to show himself to me or check if I was still breathing or what?”
Did he know what Olivia was doing to me in this place?
My chest hurts more than the wounds on my back could inflict on me.
“I can’t stay here…” I whispered to myself as I looked up at the frozen ceiling with despair in my eyes. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I did my best not to sob, but it was too much, too much to bear knowing my children were out there like easy targets for my enemies.
And I had no idea what was going on with Dominic. Did Richard succeed in kicking him out of his title? Did Olivia and her father use tricks to make the council and the people of the Silver Crescent believe Dominic was not fit to rule the pack anymore?
But that would be impossible… Dominic knew what he was doing.
Could it be that he had finally abandoned me?
[Pull yourself together, child.]
My wolf’s soft voice reverberated all over my head. Her sudden presence brought warmth to my chest, which spread throughout my body, warding off the chill. I let out a deep sigh as the pleasant feeling improved my breathing, and I felt the wounds on my back slowly heal.
I huffed as I whispered to my wolf, “I’ve been calling you for days, and I can’t feel you. What happened?”
[I need to gather strength after I got fatal injuries, dear. The silver poison weakened me for days, and I am still recovering from it.] she explained with a soft, ethereal–like voice. [You tell me why we are in this kind of place.
“Something happened,” I told her about the setup that happened ter we all discovered that Lena was killed brutally, and everyone thought it was me who did it. “And Dominic I am score of what happened to him. The walls of this prison are so thick that I can barely feel the bond. I am afraid he had already forgotten us. What if the council and Olivia had completely poisoned his mind? What if he had totally abandoned us
for maybe he is just out there dealing with more dangerous people my wolf answered, trying to soothe the perturbation in me. (You think too negatively of the situation, dear. We should wait for your mate. He knows what to do.]
My eyes sharpened as I gritted my teeth and glared at the door across the cold, boxed room. “He promised me he would come to get me out of here. He promised me he would save me and prove te everyone I had nothing to do with Lena’s death!”
[I understand how you feel, child.) My wolf whispered with sympathy in her voice, which only made this pain in my chest worse.

[But this is not something that you can do by yourself. There are people in this pack who want you dead so badly that they were able to bring you into this place. And thinking badly about your mate is not helping. Waiting is the safest option we have for now.

“I can’t wait anymore. The longer I stay here, the more dangerous it will be for Devon and Diana! There’s no way I can let Olivia get close to them! She will kill my children!”
