“You’ll have to let us go sooner rather than later,” I demand.
“Probably later. Now have a good sleep with old Tom there but be careful. He wakes up vomiting.” The cop laughs as he ambles away.
Nostrils flaring, I spare the drunk in my cell a look before meeting Lucien’s eyes. “Any ideas?”
“Not any good ones, and none that are legal, that’s for sure.”
I glance at the clock. “Give them two hours, then we’ll make a move. One way or another, we are getting out of here and finding Jai.”
“Got it.” Lucien nods.
I sit once more, pretending to relax as I wait for them to let us go.
Only one of us will win here, and it will be us.
JAI
My arms are chained above my head in my cell. My wolf flashesinside me, clawing to get out and get at the men glaring at me, but all it does is cut me up deeper inside, making it hurt worse as they ram their supernatural strength into my body time and time again.
As soon as Quinn left with her father, four of them came in, telling me it was time to talk, yet they’ve asked no questions, only tortured me. It’s funny. Despite them being monsters, they clearly don’t know the finesse of this. There is pain, that’s for sure, but I’m used to pain.
There is no threat, though, no genuine reason to be scared of them.
I’m more scared of myself.
People call me unhinged, feral, and psychotic, and maybe I am since I’m grinning through bloodied teeth as they work my body over. I taunt them each time, daring them to do more, watching their anger get worse and worse.
“Enough,” a dark, familiar voice calls.
Quinn’s father.
He steps into the room, sparing me a disgusted look. “Has he spoken?” he asks, and I watch the wolves shrink in size, bowing to their alpha. Interesting, they also did that to Quinn.
“Not yet, Alpha,” one responds, his knuckles dripping with my blood.
“Then I will. Stand outside,” the alpha commands as he heads my way.
“Alpha, we can do this?—”
“I never said you couldn’t.” He claps a man on the shoulder. “But this is personal. He took my Quinny, so head outside.”
“Yes, Alpha.” They all hurry out, slamming the door.
I swing before the alpha, before Quinny’s father. “Where’s Quinn? Is she okay?” I have to ask. He was really fucking angry, and I don’t know this man. Did he hurt her?
Why do I care if he did?
His eyebrow arches as he looks at me. “You will never see her again.”
For a moment, my heart goes cold. He killed her?
She’s dead?
“You hurt my daughter. Do you think I would ever let her near you again?” I actually slump in relief. She’s not dead. He’s simply protecting her.
Good.
His knuckles crack as he steps into the cell with me. “I won’t lose my daughter like I lost my best friend.” His fist rams into my stomach, making me gasp as I feel something break.
