NovelEnglishChapter 0402 Blair A shiver goes down my spine when Abraxas Adler makes his way into the dungeons. He was the last person I wanted to see.
He slowly runs his gun along the bars of my cell. Each bar lets off the sound of metal clunking on metal and it goes right through me.
In the cell opposite me, I see Sammie shuffle to the back, the shadows plunge her into darkness, but her soft cries give her presence away. "You can relax, baldy. I'm not here for you." He spins around to Sammie's cell and repeats the process, running his gun against the bars, while laughing to himself. "It's your turn, princess." "No." Sammie cries. "I haven't done anything." "We just have a few more questions. Answer them and you can cback here and rest your pretty little head." "I've told you everything!" She's getting annoyed.
"Sammie just answer them. You will only make it worse for yourself, for us." I mutter and Abraxas looks over his shoulder and givesa wink. Just because I wanted the truth and didn't want to die, it did not mean we were on the sside.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHalf of Sammie's face appears, the shadows still cover the majority of her. She had been crying. I had spent all night listening to her sob. She would stop and start again, over and over until I wished I was deaf. It was worse torture than being starved. Until I realised that each sob sounded different. Forced. Laboured. But I don't think it was for me, she was likely hoping a guard would cdown. And even now, with just one grey eye visible, I could see anger not sadness. Nothing was going the way she wanted it too.
I probably wouldn't have noticed if I had not spent so much twith her. And I had nothing but time.
There were massive downsides to being Human, but you do get to know the people you spend twith, if you pay attention.
"Does Dane want to speak to me?" She asks quietly.
"No, not today. Today is all about my fun." Abraxas grins at her. He is a fucking mad man and I still don't understand how he ended up here. Hunters work alone.
He opens her cell and grabs her by the throat, pulling her protesting body close to him. "Don't try anything stupid. I'm not in the mood for stupidity. Understand?" "Yes." She croaks I see it then, actual panic. And she should panic.
A few minutes after they leave, I hear heavy footsteps on the stairs. Retreating to the back of my cell, I wait. Was this it? Was Dane tired of waiting and had just decided to kill us? It would be the only reason both of us are leaving our cells.
My lungs tighten until I'm struggling to breathe. Strange black spots start forming in my vision and I find myself slipping down the wall as my chest starts to hurt.
"Shit, kid. Breathe." Ryken's large hands wrap around the cell bars. His piercing blue eyes wide as he studies me.
"What...what are you doing down here?" "Your mother is asking questions. I said if I could get permission, I would cand see you. Find out how you are." The black spots fade from my vision and I take a deep breath. I never want to feel that again.

He walks away and grabs the stool from the far end of the dungeon and plonks it in front of me. "Sometimes, we do stuff for our loved ones no matter how ridiculous it is. How did you end up here, Blair?""Let's see. I went on a one woman mission to take something that was mine, that failed miserably. Met someone who I let markthat I was also a complete bitch too. Ended up in a shit situation where I was locked up for months by a man who thinks he is a fucking God. And then my lack of any Lycan abilities lettrust someone that broughtback to this place, and now I am a prisoner until they decide the day of my execution.
His brow dip. "Do you regret any of it?" I drop my head and snort. "Do you think I'm enjoying this?"
He rolls his eyes atand sits up a little straighter, folding his arms across his chest. "I Neah was not goin certain Alpha going to let us exist, purely based on who you are and what you did, but she did, she gave us a chance. And your mother and brothers are thriving here, your little sister will too." "And what does that have to do with me?" "You could too, Blair. You could put everything behind you and start afresh." "So we can be one big happy family, right?" I mock
He rises to his feet, shaking his head.
"I knew this would be a mistake You are such an ungrateful Brat. You can't chan even accept the help you are being offered." "What help? Remindingthat my mum moved on and had more kids so she could replace me?" "You know that is not what I mean and you know that is not true. For once in your life, pull your head out of your ass and look at the bigger picture."
"You can go now." I fish in my pocket for the remaining bite of my protein bar, Only to find it had taken a hit when I crashed on the floor and all that remained were crumbs. Ashburn X
