Savannah’s eyes widened. She sobbed loudly. I looked back at my mother and narrowed my eyes.

“Why am I here, mother?” I asked. “What do you want?”

“Forgiveness,” she said. “I will change, Dimitri. I promise, son.”

I chuckled and shook my head.

“Do you really consider me that stupid, mother?” I asked as I took a step closer to her. “Do you really expect me to believe that?”

My mother glanced at Will.

“Please, Dimitri,” she cried out. “It’s the truth. I am willing to change. I am willing to accept Mad…”

“Don’t say her name!” I exclaimed as a loud growl escaped me. “You are not allowed to say her name ever again.”

I could feel the anger pulsating in my veins. I didn’t want her beautiful name to ever be spoken by my mother or the bitch in the other cell. I didn’t want them to taint her name.

“That goes for you too, Savannah,” I said, keeping my eyes on my mother. “You are not allowed to say her name ever again.”

My mother gulped and glanced at Will again. He growled quietly.

“You won’t be forgiven for what you did,” I said, clenching my fists and tightening my jaw. “You will never get out of this cell alive.”

My mother sobbed loudly. Savannah screamed.

“What did you think would happen?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at my mother. “Did you really think that I would forgive you for torturing my mate?”

“We thought that maybe you would want a strong mate,” Savannah answered instead of my mother. “We thought that maybe you would want someone more suitable than that little…”

“Watch it,” I interrupted her. “You are sentenced to death already, but I have a choice of how painful that death will be. Don’t piss me off.”

Savannah’s eyes widened.

I looked back at my mother and sighed.

“Well, my visit was pointless, just as I thought it would be,” I said. “I was hoping that you might want to share some new information with me, but I was wrong.”

I looked at Will and narrowed my eyes slightly.

“Well, Will was wrong,” I said, making him raise an eyebrow.

I looked back at my mother and clapped my hands theatrically.

“Well, I would say it was nice to see you, ladies, but I would be lying,” I said. “I will see you again on your execution date.”

I turned to my right and started walking away, ignoring their screams and pleas.

Do you think we made an impact?I mind-linked Will as we walked out of there.

We will see.He responded.Nothing to do but wait.

I tightened my jaw and took a deep breath. My lungs burned and I couldn't wait to get out of there and breathe in fresh air.

Madeline’s POV

“Why did they go see them?” I asked, furrowing my brows.
