My stomach dropped as I read that message over and over.
“Hey, Alpha. Long time no chat.”
WhiteRabbit had returned. Somehow, and for reasons I didn’t yet understand, that elusive internet vendor who had once sold me contraceptive–laced diet pills had returned.
“What do you want?” I typed back, my fingers trembling slightly. I felt like a fool for responding at all, for not immediately running to the guard stationed outside my door, but my curiosity got the better of me.
The bubbles appeared, disappeared, then reappeared. The anticipation made my heart race.

Finally, a response came through: “You should know that I had nothing to do with putting the contraceptives in those pills. I was just given them to sell to you. But I can tell you who gave them to me… For a price.”
A price. In exchange for valuable information.
1 could find out who had been plotting to keep me from getting pregnant, and maybe even why. Assuming the information would be real and not entirely made up.
For a moment, I almost asked what that price would be. The temptation was almost too much, and my fingers hovered over the keyboard, itching to find out. To finally punish whoever had caused my death.
But then I remembered who I was now.
“I was Alpha Hannah, not the desperate, confused girl I had been all those months ago. I wasn’t desperate for information. I was safe now. My baby was safe.
And I wasn’t about to fall victim to an online drug peddler,
“Fuck off,” I typed, gritting my teeth. “I’m not interested in this sort of thing anymore. I have bigger fish to fry than the likes of you.”
The response was almost immediate, the notification ping cutting through the silence: “Suit yourself. I’ll be here when you change your mind.”
Not if. When.
With a shudder, I turned off my phone and tossed it onto the nightstand, the soft thud as it landed next to my crown serving as a final punctuation to the exchange. There would be no ‘when‘..
First thing in the morning. I would show this conversation to my head of security and have them track WhiteRabbit down. I would not be paying any price for that information. I didn’t make deals with
scammers.
But the next morning, I didn’t tell anyone. I almost did, but… something stopped me. Curiosity, perhaps. Or fear. I couldn’t be sure.
I didn’t tell anyone the next day, either. Or the next day. In fact, months passed. And that last message sat waiting for me, mocking me.
