Did the people have time to clear the scene? Is she even alright? Whoever took her is not dumb enough to try and actually harm her. I am known for a lot of things and mercy is certainly not one of them. They should know better than to touch my mate. “What are you going to do now? You still have n
FEYRE I’m bound to a chair and gagged, there is something over my eyes–my whole face, like a mask, giving me no room to see anything except for the unending darkness. I tried to pull at my restraints, to test how snug they are and my hand barely moves. Whoever tied me to it definitely did not want
ALPHA ZADE I haven’t slept in two days. It has been two days since Feyre disappeared and there is still no sign of her. My eyes have refused to close since then. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, the dinner that was supposed to be held on the night she was taken got cancelled. Not that I car
But William with just a few words might ruin all the progress I’ve made since that night. “Why not? You’re stronger than this.” he gets to his feet too and walks to me. I growled when he tried to touch me. He pauses but then grips my shoulder tightly. “She wouldn’t want you sitting here and moping
ALPHA ZADE The muffled sounds coming from the room gives me immense pleasure. I didn’t even feel bad for it. “What do you have in mind?” William asks, staring at me like I have lost my mind. “Simple questioning,” I replied, though the cruel smile on my face said otherwise. William only shook his
ALPHA ZADE I was given a list of tasks that I need to fulfil before the end of the day. At least, that was what the letter said. It answered all the questions I had even though the only thing there was the set of rules. No clear instruction on what I’m supposed to do. Wondering what I was feelin
I get up from the chair and he does the same. Immediately, he moves back which makes me want to laugh. The situation is too serious for the laughter to escape my mouth. “You know the assignments, Zade, and you know how they work.” He rushed out quickly, holding something up from around his neck to
FEYRE The shock doesn’t wear off for more than five minutes. In fact, it all feels like it is just a dream. I hoped it was, multiple times. But everything felt too real, the glaring lights couldn’t have been a figment of my imagination. I couldn’t dream something this crazy or wild. The man from
After everyone settled and the place regained a semblance of normalcy, we gathered in the living room to talk about pressing matters. Feyre said she wanted to know everything before tonight. That way, she wouldn’t feel like there is something she has to do in her life. She wants to start on a clean
ALPHA ZADE Everything feels different when the plane lands in the private hangar. Even the air felt different, free and fresh. Feyre slept the entire ride to the packhouse. I relished holding cradling her in my arms like a precious jewel. Which she is. Alpha Asher is already waiting for our arri
If someone told me this would be my life four or five months ago, I would take them to the doctor because something had to be wrong with them. We’re here now, and I don’t think I can ever be this happy in my life. “Perfect.” Zade repeats. He grips my chin and tips my head up until I’m looking at h
FEYRE The gentle rhythm of the heart monitor is the sound I wake up to. I look around the dim lit room, sighing in relief when I note that it is NOT a hospital room. I think everyone would understand if I never wanted to be in one ever again. Soft breathing from beside me makes me smile. I push
We both stare at the gun we hadn’t noticed in alpha Lucien’s hand and Zade sighs, then he stands up, letting my hand fall off his body. “He would choose to die a coward. It is all he has ever been.” He turns and walks out of the place. I followed him without a word. When we walk out, there are mor
FEYRE Losing consciousness has become a second skin to me. That is my first thought when I wake up and find myself looking up at the ceiling. I pick myself up from the ground, craning my neck from side to side until I release the cramp. The man is still lying face down on the mattress. He looks d
I knew it was a reach but he was already on a sloppy hill, and this is the one thing I have always wanted to know, if he was the one that killed her or not. It looked like suicide, people believed she had a reason to. But I knew she wouldn’t. She promised to stand by me and she wouldn’t have left w
“It can’t be cured because it is not a fucking illness. Your delusion though, I’m sure they have mental institutions like this for that.” “Don’t speak to me like that.” he growls, sounding enraged. It is the only real emotion I have seen him shown in a while. “I had this all mapped out for years.
ALPHA ZADE I blink my eyes open, hoping everything I’m thinking right now is nothing but my imagination, or at least, a bad dream. A terrible dream where my father has me and Feyre in a crazy lab bunker. It seems too real, the déjà vu hitting me among other things. This has felt like it has happe
