Chapter 110 Late
RONAN
The second that elevator swallowed Seraphina, my wolf snapped loose inside me. What the fuck just happened? When I had agreed to plan B, I never agreed to her being taken like that.
My wolf roared violently and furious in my mind as I sprinted my boots barely hitting the floor as I vaulted over the railing. Asher and Finn were already converging from opposite ends of the brothel, both wearing the same storm–eyed confusion.
We reached the blank wall where the elevator had disappeared. There was nothing but smooth marble and silence.
“Fuck!” I gritted my teeth, slamming my fists into the seam where the elevator had closed. My claws half–formed, fighting to force the metal open, but it was no use. Instead it flashed a red light as if another tried to rip it open and it would set off an alarm
“He’s gone.” Finn rasped, slamming his palm against the wall, “Seth! Seth, do you hear me?” he yelled into the communicator. but there was only static, “Fuck! It’s useless,” he growled, ripping it off from his ear.
The signal had cut the moment she descended.
Communication might not work underground.” Asher said flatly, breath tight, “That elevator, it didn’t go up. It went down.”
Finn frowned, “That meant…”
All of us stared at each other for a long moment.
“Underground. “I realized as I glanced down at my feet feeling something for the slightest moment.
This wasn’t just a brothel.
It was more like a fortress.
A fortress of flesh, secrets, and goddamn horror buried beneath our feet.
“That’s where they’re keeping Grace,” Asher said, his voice low but certain, “That’s why we could not find her anywhere up here. Now, Seth’s in there too.”
My jaw clenched as I looked across the hall, “How dare that
IT owner…
Ryker stood across in the main hall, unmoving, facing a tall man in a blood–red suit, clearly the brothel owner’s right–hand dog but his eyes were flickering in our direction as he observed everything. Our eyes met for a couple of moments as the message passed between us.
I exchanged looks with Asher and Finn as we all retreated into the darkness.
Back in the hall the owner’s right hand man had been doing his master’s work very well.
“Please come with me. Alpha,” the right hand man was smiling, courteous, leading Ryker out of the tall, “Your she wolves await, Alpha” the man urged, bowing with mock politeness, “You can select anyone you like.”
Hyker silently followed him to the guest room. As soon as he entered, the man it to send the girls into the room. The dour shut behind hum and Ryker lifted his gaze to meet mine. He already knew I was in the room.
“How dare you sell him?! I growded, stepping closer to him.
“It was you people who started plan B. he growled back stepping forward.
Then who the fuck tuld you that you could sell him for real?” I demanded, barely a hand’s breadth away from each other.
Before the gunient could take a turn for the worst, Aster slipped into the room through the window, “We have to enter the underground brothel, he looked at the two of us with a frown and growled. You two need to fucking forget about your
hatered for each other right now. We have to not only save Grace but Seth Darven now as well!”
Before we could even speak, the door burst open again and Finn entered, dragging the bleeding, unconscious right–hand. man by the hair.
“And this, he muttered, throwing him to the ground, “is the key.”
I looked between the two of them, Asher with the map, Finn with the access key.
We were in.
