Chapter 405
“You’re not worthy of being an Alpha” I say. I get the words out, but they‘ re slurred.
“Keep that fire, beautiful. You’re going to need it in the bedroom.”
“I would kill you before I’d ever let you lay a finger on me,” I growl.
He backhands me, sending stinging pain through my cheek and down to my aching shoulders. Then he grabs my mouth, squeezing my cheeks together and pulling my face toward his.
“Keep mouthing off and I’m going to put something in your mouth to shut you up,” I’d think he meant something like a cloth, except he’s rubbing his dick and it already looks hard.
“You put anything in my mouth, and I’ll bite it off,” I growl, staring him down.
He yanks my face closer to his. “Keep it up. It’s only going to make it sweeter when you crawl on your knees to me, begging me to fuck your mouth.‘
”
What the hell kind of sick bullshit fantasy is he having?
Instead of replying, I spit in his face. This time, the backhand knocks me
out.
When I wake again, the ache in my shoulders reminds me quickly of where I am.
‘Adira?‘ I ask, hoping that she’s back, even with the silver. Nothing.
Damn.

I look around, not seeing him anywhere in the room. I realize my arms are over my head and my ankles are shackled to the floor, but my arms are only over my head because I’m on the floor. I force myself to move, standing and letting the blood flow back to my arms and hands, releasing the ache in my shoulders as my arms fall to my waist.
I’m unsteady on my feet, but I lean against the wall, as I take in my surroundings. Definitely a packhouse, and definitely an Alpha suite, but which one.
If Adira was awake, this would be easier, but instead, I have to rely on my lesser senses. I close my eyes and sniff the room. Owen’s and Alaric’s packs have been taken over, so we’re not there. Zahn’s pack isn’t empty that I know of. He wouldn’t have wanted me in Aiden’s pack, and it wouldn’t be vacant anyway. That leaves Elias and Joshua’s packs. If this is the Alpha suite, I should be able to smell Margot or Luna June’s scent, even vaguely.
I look around, trying to see if anything gives away which pack we’re in. I‘ ve never been to either pack, but I have a vague idea of where they are in relation to my pack. It’s far, really far. Ezra’s pack is out here somewhere too, but I don’t know where in relation to this pack. Joshua’s and Elias‘ packs were relatively close together.
There. I catch the vague scent of rosewater. Luna June. We’re in Elias‘ old pack. I start pulling my vague recollection of where his pack is. I’d run near here when I was with Allison and Letti. We’d skirted the packs, but unlike mine and Robin’s pack, these packs are out here pretty much on
their own.
This pack is southeast of our pack, if I remember correctly. So, when I get out of here, I need to run northwest. I just need to get close enough to call for help. Even if Aiden and his pack come for me, Robin and Kayce’s packs will too.
Robin. I know he’s not dead. I would feel it if he was. That’s good, but I

have no idea if he’s lying on his deathbed, or if someone found him in time and got him to the hospital.
