Blair
A shiver goes down my spine when Abraxas Adler makes his way into the dungeons. He was the last person I wanted to see.
He slowly runs his gun along the bars of my cell. Each bar lets off the sound of metal clunking on metal and it goes right through me.
In the cell opposite me, I see Sammie shuffle to the back, the shadows plunge her into darkness, but her soft cries give her presence away.
“You can relax, baldy. I’m not here for you.” He spins around to Sammie’s cell and repeats the process, running his gun against the bars, while laughing to himself. “It’s your turn, princess.”
“No.” Sammie cries. “I haven’t done anything.”
“We just have a few more questions. Answer them and you can come back here and rest your pretty little head.”
“I’ve told you everything!” She’s getting annoyed.
“Sammie just answer them. You will only make it worse for yourself, for us.” I mutter and Abraxas looks over his shoulder and gives me a wink.
Just because I wanted the truth and didn’t want to die, it did not mean we were on the same side.
Half of Sammie's face appears, the shadows still cover the majority of her. She had been crying. I had spent all night listening to her sob. She would stop and start again, over and over until I wished I was deaf. It was worse torture than being starved. Until I realised that each sob sounded different. Forced. Laboured. But I don’t think it was for me, she was likely hoping a guard would come down. And even now, with just one grey eye visible, I could see anger not sadness. Nothing was going the way she wanted it too.
I probably wouldn’t have noticed if I had not spent so much time with her. And I had nothing but time.
There were massive downsides to being Human, but you do get to know the people you spend time with, if you pay attention.
“Does Dane want to speak to me?” She asks quietly.
“No, not today. Today is all about my fun.” Abraxas grins at her. He is a fucking mad man and I still don’t understand how he ended up here. Hunters work alone.
He opens her cell and grabs her by the throat, pulling her protesting body close to him. “Don’t try anything stupid. I’m not in the mood for stupidity. Understand?”
“Yes.” She croaks
I see it then, actual panic. And she should panic.
A few minutes after they leave, I hear heavy footsteps on the stairs. Retreating to the back of my cell, I wait. Was this it? Was Dane tired of waiting and had just decided to kill us? It would be the only reason both of us are leaving our cells.
My lungs tighten until I’m struggling to breathe. Strange black spots start forming in my vision and I find myself slipping down the wall as my chest starts to hurt.

I recently learned that this story is pirated. To read it legally, go to inkitt.com or the Inkitt app and search for Taylor West. FYI, the Facebook group is highly cliquish, so be warned....
This is stolen and as such, a lot of my story is being left out/adjusted. The true version is on Inkitt...
OMG! This is stolen and the person who has uploaded it doesn't have the authors permission! It's disgusting tou can steal someone's hard earned work! Please come find the true author on FB Taylor west pack and this one will never be finished....
I love this book! It was a sample read for an advertised app that you must pay to keep reading. I wasn't willing to pay for each chapter, so I searched and found this site. Something I'd like to see more of is time passing. We had a little during Neah’s pregnancy, and there was a recent mention that Neah had been in the pack for two years; I didn't know that much time had passed. Until I heard it had been two years, I thought all the events were happening back to back. That's why it would be nice to have a sense of the passage of time—just a thought....
Is there an update when the next chapter will be available?...
