Chapter 154

I looked around the room I was in, instantly relieved to find I was alone, but that relief was short-lived as I realized my left wrist was handcuffed to what felt like a metal bedrail. I imagined some sort of hospital bed, but nothing else about the room itself screamed hospital. Not the lack of lights, the sounds, or the smells,

The room was so dark I couldn't make out whether it was day or night. Hadn't it been morning when they took me? How long have I been out?

My head continued to throb, making it difficult to think. I wasn't sure what they had knocked me out

with, but it left a bitter taste in the back of my throat and my mouth was uncomfortably dry. Wishing for a toothbrush and some mouthwash caused a hysterical giggle to erupt from me. I knew I

had bigger issues than a severe case of morning breath.

I paused. Think, Elise,I demanded of myself. Calling my wolf close to the surface,

I channeled my wolf hearing and listened. I couldn't make out any sounds. It was eerily quiet.

I jiggled the handcuffs and had a momentary feeling of nostalgia. In a warped way they comforted me. It hadn't been that long ago that my rambunctious youngest brother, Chase, had gone through an

obsession with law enforcement. He carried a real, cop-issued pair of handcuffs everywhere and frequently used them on his siblings. Sadly, it wasn't the first time I had awoken to find myself locked to a bed. I knew from experience that attempting to change into my wolf form while in handcuffs, was a very bad idea.

Smiling at the memory and thankful for horrible lessons learned, I used my free hand to reach into my pocket. I could almost guarantee to always find a hair tie and a few bobby pins in there. I felt around, thankful to find I was still wearing jeans, and relief washed over me as my fingers closed
