Chapter 297
“You don’t get it. This isn’t just because I’m getting away from the cops.” Selim looked over at her. “You are important to the Alpha. I can use that.”
Elaine’s brow furrowed. “You overestimate my worth to him.”
“You underestimate it.”
They both went quiet. Selim wasn’t exactly in the mood to make conversation, and Elaine was doing her best to keep her composure. She looked back outside. In the distance, she could see the pine trees that signaled the forests beyond the border.
He was taking her away from Wind Wolf. And if she was recognizing this road right, he wasn’t just taking her into rogue territory.
He was taking her to the Last Stand Labs.
About two hours later, they arrived. The cops had to end the pursuit at the border. The rogue skirmishes made it too dangerous for them to follow. Which left Elaine with Selim as he pulled the truck to a stop outside the labs.
The moment the doors were locked, Elaine made a break for it.
Selim caught up to her before she reached the brush, and tackled her to the ground. The wind rushed from Elaine’s lungs and she coughed, heaving out a breath.
“Nice try,” he growled out, hauling her up as she gasped for air. He dragged her toward the building, sl.. dug her heels in but he didn’t even seem to notice the struggle. He was stronger than he looked.
Or perhaps she was weaker than she thought.
Than this illness. If only she had her medication…
The side door to the building slammed open as Selim walked in. He dragged her through the halls until he reached an office. He hauled her inside and threw her to the ground.
Elaine landed hard, wincing at the impact.
“Selim,” a surprised voice.
She looked up. Mia. There was no sign of May currently though no doubt the other twin was lurking
somewhere.
Selim stood up straight. “Brought you some leverage against the pack Alpha.”
“What do you think you’re doing?” Mia said, walking around the desk to look down at Elaine.

Elaine glared at Mia. Did she know about the experiment? Surely she did. The file was in her own records here at the lab. “You should know.”
