Chapter 0097
Judy’s POV
I woke up to the sounds of murmurs nearby; my memory of what had happened was a bit foggy and my head ached like I was hungover, but I don’t remember drinking that much. I had mainly water with a few sips of white wine at dinner, but it wasn’t enough to make me hungover. I don’t even remember falling asleep.
My fingers twitched as I came to, and I could feel the cold concrete ground beneath me. That was part of the reason why my body was aching. Then I felt the cold metal chains around my wrists and the burning that the silver invoked. Silver was a werewolf’s weakness, and I knew before I even opened my eyes that I wouldn’t be able to channel my wolf or send out a mindlink to anyone in my pack.
I also knew that I was in danger.
A slight memory came back to me, and I remember running and laughing with Irene by my side. Was Irene here with me? Did she somehow set me up? Maybe she didn’t believe me when I told her that nothing was going on between Ethan and me. Maybe this was part of her plan; to make sure the guards didn’t follow us so she could kidnap me and possibly kill me.
Another memory resurfaced and I remembered watching Irene fall to the ground after a man attacked her. He stabbed her in the neck with a syringe and she passed out immediately. My heart hammered in my chest, and I knew my breathing was unsteady. I tried to keep it steady just in case I wasn’t alone wherever I was.
I could hear the light whispers from some men nearby and I tried to channel my wolf so I could hear better, but to no prevail. However, their voices grew louder as their footsteps neared. I might not have my wolf senses, but the moment they were close enough, I could smell them. It was the same sickly scent from before.
Rogues.
“I thought we were only paid to capture one girl,” one of the rogues asked in a harsh whisper.
“So, we’ll ask for more money,” another said with a dark chuckle. “Who are they anyways?”
“I don’t fucking know. I didn’t ask questions. He gave me a price and I told him no problein,” another rogue muttered. “I’m starving; let’s get some food while we wait for them to wake up. It’ll probably be a while. We used a lot of wolfsbane.”
They sauntered off; the sounds of their shoes growing more distant and then I heard the opening and shutting of a door, along with a lock.
So far, telling from their voices, there were 3 of them. But I remembered there being more than that before I passed out.
