I nudge her, wanting her to answer whatever it is Avery has asked her.

"My wolf, she bared it so I didn't have to,” she says.

"You must have been lonely, all them years trapped in her confines, only to listen to her screams"

"Okay, are you going to explain what you saw?" I ask, getting annoyed.

"I told you what I saw, darkness, that is all, the sound was horrendous,” Avery says.

"How does darkness have a sound"

"Where she came from, it did. The agony behind the noise was deafening. Could hear their souls breaking"

"Okay then anything else like a name, I can't keep calling her "-

"46, yes that is her number. The number signifies the number of times she survived their experiments before she died before they awoke the hybrid gene before that she was called worse than a number,” Avery says.

"Great, I have a number for a mate,” I tell her.

"Watch your tone, don't forget who you are speaking in front of Ryker. As for your mate, what do you think of Reika,” Avery asks her.

"Reika?" I ask, trying the weird name out.

"Yes, means the power of the wolf,” Avery says, reaching over and touching my mate's face. I nod at least it's a name.

"Aamon take Reika out. I need a moment alone with Ryker,” she says, and I nod to my mate.

"Come little one I won't hurt you,” Aamon tells her. She reluctantly follows after him, stepping through the door and out the beaded curtain.

"So can I keep her or do I kill her?"

"I don't know Ryker, but she has suffered and you tying her like a dog when she spent half her life caged and tied to steel tables is no way to treat your mate,” Avery says, her eyes sparkling dangerously.

"She can't be trusted until I can trust her I will deal with her how I please"

"You’re right she can't be trusted, but all I know is she has a reason"

"Reasons? Care to tell me those fucking reasons Avery"

"You may be our closest friend but you are in my city and you will show respect, Ryker. I did you a favor don't you forget that" she snaps pointing her finger at me.

"I'm sorry Ava.”

"I know you are but I didn't get a chance to see, Aamon made sure of that. But until you figure it out she will do what they asked of her"

"What is that?"

"To kill your family"

I laugh. She truly thinks she could take on pure-blooded Lycan hybrids.

"I wouldn't be so amused if I were you, she is quite capable. Her wolf is savage but you know that. But she is different from Lily, Reika craves blood in both forms, she is the same her blood as pure as yours, but with a twist"

"Stop talking in riddle Ava I haven't got time for this,” I tell her, pinching the bridge of my nose. I needed sleep and I still had five more hours of driving.

"She drinks hybrid blood Ryker she hunts hybrid's, hunts her own kind, she needs them to survive"

"What do you mean, she needs them to survive?"
