Freya’s POV"Hello?!" I yelled into the empty room and my words echoed loudly in the wide space.Sometimes, I didn't even know why I even attempted when it wasn't like there was anyone who would respond to me.The chains jangled when I moved, but still held me in place, not allowing me to move an inch. When I did move, it cut into my wrists.*Is anyone there?!" In response, I heard the scuffle of boots around where I was, and my heart skipped a beat. I stayed still and waited for the door to open, while I was just starting to think about my next move. I wrapped the handle of the chains around my fingers, ready to swing it away which was a weapon.I was surprised that my calls were even answered since it's been over three weeks since I was thrown down here, apparently, my captors had forgotten about me.A lean, blond-haired guy opened the door and stepped in there, and was shooting angry looks from his eyes at me. "What the hell is wrong with you? Why all the yelling?!"I pretended to
Freya’s POVTwo weeks after her escape…"Is this it?" I squinted at the gods forsaken building that stood tall."Yes ma'am." The man who took me here going by Gordon eagerly nodded his head up and down. I met him a week later. My plan was fully hatched, and I was ready to implement it. Turns out that he was the perfect person for the job, as he knew every nook and cranny of the silver Moon pack intimately and he would be able to get me to where I needed."Are you sure?" I eyed him and the building respectively, not ready to let go of this money especially if it was false news.Gordon had asked for a ridiculous sum which to him was justified since he was putting his life on the line here, and I grudgingly accepted."What the hell do you mean, lady?" He starts to fume, his stocky build getting more pumped up. "You think I'm gonna rip you, I'm not one of those niggas, bitch!"I whirled around and moved close to him. "Don't ever call me bitch again!" I growled, my wolf rising to the surfa
Katherine’s POVThe sound of voices echoing woke me up from my slumber. It was all blurry at first, then everything came into focus. I spotted Caleb first, then Daniel, his friend, and a couple of other people in the room. Someone turned and left the room and for a moment I thought it was Ethan but when I shook my head slightly, I didn't see anyone.My head movement however let the others know that I was now awake. "She's awake!" Someone squeals and Caleb rushes towards me, worry etched into the lines on his forehead."Baby, are you okay?" He says and places his hands on my forearms. I was just about to reassure him when the pressure of his fingers on my body made me scream out loud, pain rocketing through my body. That was when I discovered that every inch of my body was in pain and even a slight movement made it even worse so I stopped moving my body."I'm sorry!" Caleb instantly removes his hands and the pressure abates causing the pain to reduce. I feel terrible for making him worr
Ethan’s POVWhen we got Katherine safely out of Shadow's territory, I was ready to collect my dues from Caleb before I was hit without another shocker.I had assigned a different group of men to guard Roy and his nanny, Sheila, so when I saw the leader in charge, Gordon rush towards me the moment we touched base, I knew there was a problem."Sir, I-" I shut him up, grabbed him by the arm, and dragged him away from where I was. The walls had ears and with Caleb and his men around, I didn't want this information falling into the wrong hands.I found an empty room and matched him inside, locking the door firmly behind us. I walked to the center of the room and turned back to face Gordon, regarding him closely. "What happened?"The man was sweating bullets, thinking I wanted to harm him...and I might, after I'd heard what he had to say, of course."U-uh s-sir, I can explain. I don't know how it happened or how they found it but- um, sir…" his blubbering was getting me annoyed as we haven'
Katherine’s POV"Hey, Katherine!" Doctor Mallory, who insists I should just call her Mallory, waltzes into my room with a wide smile and a bag of chocolates in the other."Hi!!" I responded just as eagerly as dropped the boxes of chocolate on a nearby table, craning my neck to see what was inside. "Whatchu got there?!"She gives me a secretive smile, hanging her stethoscope around her neck. "Nothing you need to see." She says coyly and goes about with her exams, pretending to ignore me.I sit back down on my mound of pillows with a huff, folding my hands beneath my breasts. "Really? You're going to do this to me?" When she continued ignoring me, I could a faint hint of a smile peeking through from her otherwise serious expression. "You know torturing a bedridden pregnant woman with a bag of chocolates far from reach is borderline wickedness, right?" I groaned, my mouth watering the longer I stared at the box."Ha! So you're going to bring out the pregnancy card?" She breaks her silenc
Caleb's POV"Don't think for one second that I'm not on to you!" I told Ethan the minute we stepped out of Katherine's room but he didn't look fazed, instead, he was faintly bemused."What? Do you think I'm making this all up?"I squint at him, not buying his bullshit for a minute. "I wouldn't know. I don't trust you as far as I can throw you."Yet you came to me to help your beloved Katherine, yet you trusted me to help you.""That's inconsequential, we had a deal and you kept your part of the bargain. That doesn't mean I'll trust you with the life of my kid, so I ask you again. Where. Is. Roy?" I moved closer to him until I was in his personal space.He doesn't move back, instead, he stares at me down. "Are you going to waste time trying to browbeat me into repeating the same thing I said, or are you going to help me find Roy?"I stared at him skeptically. "You know where he is?""My people have found a lead." He drew back so he could retrieve his phone and showed me the coordinates
Caleb’s POVI looked at Ethan in worry after the line went dead in my ear."Hello, Katherine? Kathy baby, can you hear me?!" I shouted into the speaker, but silence greeted me."I told you to wait till we got home! You didn't listen!" Ethan grumbled when I tried to call her back but I kept getting voicemail. I ran a hand through my hair as I was so agitated that I didn't even have a comeback to what he said, instead, I pushed him out of the way and ran towards the car."You coming or what?" I yelled over my shoulder as I started the engine, and pressed on the accelerator.Ethan sprints towards the other side of the car, barely getting inside before I take off on the highway.While driving with one hand on the steering wheel, I hooked up my phone to the car's Bluetooth and kept on calling Katherine's number.After a while, I got the message that her inbox was full and couldn't accept any more messages.I hit the steering in anger. "Fuck!! Fuck, fuck, fuck!!"Ethan was just calm through
Katherine’s POVI'm back in the hospital…again.Great.Only this time my legs are in stirrups and moving even a little bit is a pain in the ass.This time though, I had the full consciousness of what happened to me…only I didn't suspect how bad it was yet.Caleb's words came back to me with a vengeance and I blinked tears.The doors opened to reveal Mallory walking into the room with a stack of files in one hand and a white box in the other.She didn't notice I was awake until she came close enough."Oh, hey!" She greets me enthusiastically and bends down to place a kiss on my cheek, the smell of coconut oil wafting up my nose. "I didn't know you were already awake, want me to inform the others?" She had already turned towards the door, intent on doing just that but my hand shot out to grasp her wrist."Please don't." My voice cracked and her face softened. She pats my hand in understanding."Of course…if you don't want me to."She goes through the motions of checking me out, asking m
