A new partnering

Ella's P.O.V

It has been a week since I found out Katie was missing and the panic has drained out of me when I got the description of the men they'd seen around her that night.

Clean cut, handsome and Alphas. Warrick was none of that. Ugly. SCARRED, were better adjectives to describe him. He was the leader of misplaced rogues and as much as that sounded beautiful, he wasn't doing the world a favor. He blackmailed rogues… minor rogues mostly and used them for his benefits. If you were a boy, you'd automatically become one of his goons but if you were a girl, well he'd sell you off as a sex slave.

That was the life I lived before I escaped with Katie's help. She was recruited into Warricks Abyss and we bonded during one of the food fights.

Warrick's men liked to do something sick but they found it highly entertaining.
