Chapter 135

Macey POV

The following morning, I woke to a pinch in my neck. I had hardly slept all night as I fought the urge, yet my attempts to stay awake were unsuccessful, exhaustion eventually taking me.

“Shh, my love, it is just a sedative,” Carter murmured as he pulled the syringe from my neck. My fingertips touched the spot. He had handcuffed me to him during the night. I had tried to shift out of my restraints, yet he pounced on me before I even made it a step from the bed. Which earned me the handcuffs for my efforts. He had also drugged me the moment he wrestled me back into the restraints. I had cursed myself all night. I should have held out longer, earned his trust. All night I had stared at the ceiling completely paralyzed.

Panic coursed through me as he stabbed me again, this time. “It’s just precaution. This won’t paralyze you completely, just stop you from shifting mostly and is more of a muscle relaxant. My father’s invention, shitty man, but a smart one,” he says.

There was so much I could say about his father’s intelligence, or lack thereof. Yet I held my tongue.

“In case you need to use the bathroom. It should start to wear off just before I get back,” he says. I growled at him, disgusted that he would even think I would use it. If that fucker thinks I am using that, he is surely mistaken. I would rather shit my pants and watch him clean me with no working water here. Pay back for keeping me locked up like a dog.
