“Really? No leaf can move in my territory without my permission and you say an intruder entered. And even if he did, where did he go? Vanish in thin air?” 

“There was no one or no scent except yours when I found you.” 

My heart thuds in my chest. What? How can it be possible. 

“I swear Xavier! I saw that man! He –” 

“Shut up your lies doll, you don’t want to make me more angry.” 

“Stop covering your stupid suicide attempt with your bullshit.” 

#1 

You were well aware of the repercussion of something happening to you on my territory, yet you did a stunt like this.”

“You know what? I have a better explanation for your actions.” 

My heart thuds faster, it can’t be good. I just know.

“You and your father planned this. If something happened to you here, council will consider it a violation of the barter and strip me of my title.” 

“Once out of power, you father will attack and take over.” 

“Am I right?” 

I blink in disbelief. What the fuc*? Has he lost his marbles? Me planning with Dad? 

I was rendered speechless.

At that point, words meant nothing. This man can go to any extent to find an excuse to hate me. Before I could stop myself, my eyes roll at him 

“Did you dare to roll your eyes at me?” 

He grips my jaw to seethe and I sigh. 

“You think too high of yourself Alpha Xavier. Do you seriously think I will try to kill myself just to strip you off your power?” 

“My life is way more valuable to give away for a bastard like you.” 

He keeps staring at me and I hold his stare. 

“Then why didn’t you kill yourself before marrying me, huh? Why now?” 

Is this man dumb?

“I fuc*ing told you it wasn’t suicide! A man tried to kill me!” 

He lets go of me and starts pacing the room. His veiny fingers run through his hair.

After 5 long minutes of losing in deep thought, he nods to stand beside 

1. me. 

“I will check thoroughly once and until I find a proof, you will stay here.” 

“I don’t trust you one bit.” 

As if I trust him. He can go and never show me his face again for all I care. I know Dom told me to not argue with him but he doesn’t help. 

He starts walking out and right before his last step, he presses a switch.

Pitch darkness surrounds me and my throat clogs in fear. 

“What the hell-”

“It’s called the dark room for a reason. And yes, as I promised, your company will join you shortly.” 

“Thank your luck, they are edentate.” 

With this he slams the door shut and I am welcomed with pitch darkness. Company? What company? Edentate? And what does that word even mean? 

The man is going crazy with every passing day. 

I tug on my wrists to find them tied above my head. My feet had similar fate. Aghh a little effort and I already feel drained. Closing my eyes, I just decided to get some rest.

I barely survived today and look at him, ready to punish me again. I deserved some rest at least. 

My mind wanders to that killer and I couldn’t help rewind his words. He said Xavier sent him. Lie. 

Xavier wasn’t acting. From his reaction it was clear he knew nothing about this. He hates me, I know but he won’t kill me. 

And even if one day he decides to do it, it will from the front, in my face, by his hands. 

Not from behind. 

Or his dear ego will be hurt. 

Then why did he lie?

Think Sierra. There must be a reason. Think! 

It clicks and I freeze. It’s obvious. He wanted me and everyone else to believe that Xavier did it and broke the terms of barter 

It was a trap to ruin him using me! 

But if no one entered the pack, does this mean it’s an insider. Or rather a pack member working as an agent? 

I have to find out. The threat is inside! And I know this is not going to be his last attempt. 

He failed in this one. 

But he will try again. 

But how will I if I am not released and Xavier doesn’t trust me?

Dropping my head back I sigh,. 

When suddenly I hear a chirp followed by a hiss. 

I decide to ignore it. 

But it resonates again. And then before I know it, the only voice audible was chirping.

I struggle in the chains, desperate to see what it was, but I am only welcomed with darkness. 

“What the hell is this now!” 

I freeze as I feel something crawling up my legs and then it happened. 

Something bit my thigh and a scream left my lips. It didn’t stop… more and more of those creatures start crawling on me and I thrash 

desperately.
