Chapter 5

He dragged me through the crowd into a tall building all while I tried to release his hold and screamed at him. Once inside he lead me through the dark hall, there was not much lighting except a few dim bulbs along the way. there was a rotten smell as we stepped deeper into the place, I cringed at the sight and smell. Thinking about spending the rest of my life here made me dizzy.

"Please…" I pleaded "we would leave and never return" when I said that he stopped abruptly and looked at me furiously.

"No." He deadpanned.

"No? No… why. We mean no harm" I replied. "We didn't know the place was under your pack. We were about to leave anyway"

"That's not the answer I want. You are not leaving until you tell me why exactly are you here?" He said.

I wanted to scream everything on his face, something inside me wanting to tell him everything that happened, but I could not.

After climbing down a few stairs we reached a cell it was made of silver except for the lock. He opened it and pushed me in, " your little friends will join you soon" he spat.

I crawled myself to a corner and started crying covering my face. When I didn't hear him leaving I peeked through my fingers. I saw him watching me intently.

" I'm asking you again, why are you here?" I pulled my hands away from my face and stared at him.

" If you answer, you and your friends don't have to go through this trouble" he smirked.

I scoffed wiping away my tears as I saw his face fall which turned into anger.

"You are a bad man" I cried.

He crouched down to my level "no, cupcake I'm worst than your nightmare. You came lurking around in the wrong territory."

He caught my chin and made me look at him again "I'm not a man with a lot of patience, the earlier you talk the faster you will be out of here" he left my chin and got up when footsteps echoed through the hall.

He despised us so much, that I knew for sure. But why this treatment is what's confusing me. They thought we are rogues that's understandable, but they could have had a civil conversation and should have left us the first time itself. We kept staring at each other till the door was again opened.

I looked behind him I saw them bringing Sam and Della. Once they were inside I ran towards Della, she needed help. Alpha turned around to leave.

" plea--se, sh-she needs help" I stuttered. he halted and turned back to look at her.

" Chris. Sent the Doctor here " with that they left.

A few minutes later a man in his mid-forties came into the cell along with two guards, he checked Della

" she needs to be brought to the clinic. I need to run some tests, I don't think here it is enough"

"It's alphas order, we can't take them out," one of the guards said.

" then I will give her some injections. She will be able to heal faster but I still want to run some tests on her" he said.

Like he said he gave her some shots and left.

It was almost two days, that we were inside the cell. Every day Chris would come with food. for some reason, I felt he wasn't coming here because he was asked to bring the food for us, but to see Sam. I even told her but every time he came she paid no attention she either pretended she was asleep or she would not look at him. And every evening alpha would come to us with the same question like who sent us here? What were we doing in his territory? What did we want? But all we do is just keep quiet which angered him more every time. We knew we could only escape if we either told them the truth or we will have to jailbreak.

At night sometimes I had nightmares about what might have happened to my family and pack and I would wake up crying and stay up due to lack of sleep.

Today also I did wake but not from any nightmare but due to having a dream about the same boy whom I started seeing since the run. I felt as if someone is watching me in dark, which gave me more goosebumps. I got up and walked over to Sam and woke her up

"Sam.. Sam wake up" I whispered.

"What is I--" I shushed her.

" someone is there," I told her.

She got up and went near the cell and looked around as she could see through her wolf sight.

She came back "I couldn't see anyone there but I smelled a presence.. I don't know who it is there is a mixture of Smells maybe it's the guards," she said, " are you scared?" I nodded.

" then come here sleep with me" with that I crawled next to her and fell into a deep slumber.

Over the past 3 days, I was getting more attached to sam. She reminded me of Emma even though Sam is young just 2-3 years older than me, she cared for me.

The next day night I didn't sleep I just waited if I could feel any presence. But none came and I felt relieved. Maybe the guards heard me crying yesterday in my sleep and came over to check on me. That's it I convinced myself.

Della got a lot better thanks to the shots the pack doctor gave her every night for the past three days she could now walk herself even though she couldn't fight yet.

*********

"We need to get out of here, "Sam said

Both I and Della looked at her. "Tonight when everyone sleeps let's escape"

" How are we going to do that? " Della showed interest.

"tonight"  Sam gave us a wicked smile. if I didn't know her for these few days I would definitely be terrified by seeing her like this.
