On the Ragged Edge of the World

“We gotta get them out of here,” Nick rasped, once he could speak. “Oliver’s planning on using them to feed his new pack.”


The other locks came free. “Why would he be so stupid?”


“Because they were planning on speaking out against him. I think they’re pretty important.”


They couldn’t have been too important; otherwise, Aden would have recognized them. But he went to their sides anyway and proceeded to free them as well.


“Thank you,” the woman panted when she could speak.


Aden worked on her partner. “Who are you?”


“William DiRicco,” the man said. “This is my wife, Sherry. Tell me the police are on their way to arrest this fucker.”


“Not quite, but I’m getting you out of here.” He scooped an arm beneath DiRicco’s back, while Nick appeared at his side to help with the wife. Together, they helped them to their wobbly feet.


“Keep your head down and do exactly as I say,” Aden warned. “The alarms got triggered when I came down.”
