Chapter 46 Thinking Things Over

(Iris)

As she left, I felt a wave of hopelessness wash over me. The room seemed to close in, the walls pressing down on me. I glanced at Jasper, who was pacing the small space, his frustration evident in every step he took.

We were trapped, at the mercy of Alpha Caden and his sister, Leila. The realization settled over me like a heavy blanket, suffocating and inescapable. We had to find a way out, but for now, all we could do was wait and hope that an opportunity would present itself.

I started to suspect everything. Leila’s calm demeanor and cryptic words spun around in my head, making it impossible to think straight. I paced the room, my mind racing with questions and doubts. The more I thought about it, the more confused I became.

Why did Caden bring us here after trying to use me to kill Jasper? Was everything a trick? Did he manipulate us into running just so he could kidnap us? But why go through all that trouble when he could have easily taken us without the elaborate ruse?
