“I want to speak to him,” I say firmly, looking at the men who stand outside the small prison facility where werewolves are kept until they await trial.

Most things are handled by local law enforcement unless it involves something very personal to werewolves. “We can’t allow that. I’m afraid our orders are from Mr. Aran King-”

“I am the Alpha, and I command you to step aside,” I say clearly, I’m not here to play. They instantly lower their heads, hesitating for a mere fraction of a second before their shoulders relax and they dip their heads lower. “It’s not a pretty place, Alpha.”

“I don’t care. Step aside.” I repeat, motioning for them to unlock the doors. I need to get my own imprints done so I can access all areas of the pack without anyone’s permission. I need to be on top of my game in all aspects.

Once the door beeps and it swings open, I step inside. It’s dimly lit, the cold metal walls only making the place look even more dreary. I instantly pick up on Sebastian’s scent and walk towards it. The rest of the cells are empty. I stop outside the only occupied cell and look through the barred entrance.

It’s so cold down here. Sebastian is sitting on the narrow bed, one leg raised, his arm resting on his knee, the other one stretched out on the bed. His closed eyes, now open and look into mine.

My heart squeezes seeing him down here, as he stands up, coming towards the bars. “Hey, cheer up.” He says quietly.

“How? When you are in here?” I ask, reaching through the bars. He reaches through the bars, his arms not getting far, and grips my face with both hands. “It won’t be for long… I promise you that. What happened?”

I grip his wrist, closing my eyes as I touch my forehead to the metal bars. It’s uncomfortable on both sides of my face.

“He’s the shooter Seb. He’s the one who attacked Valerie, and he’s poisoned Sia… he said he has an antidote to heal her.” I say quietly. He tenses, his heart thundering. “Sia is being poisoned?”

“Yes, from birth… he did something.” His eyes flash and I can see the rage inside of them. “So, you’re saying Gerard is behind all of it?”

“Part of it, yes… I don’t know, things weren’t meant to go like this. He said I needed to stay away from you and then he…” I don’t want him to get angry in here, but I need to tell him what happened.

“Then he what?” he asks. “He kissed me… and that’s when I pushed him,” I say hesitantly, looking up at him slowly. To my surprise, his eyes soften as if something suddenly made sense. “I knew it,” he murmurs, closing his eyes. “Fuck I’m glad.”

“Knew what?” “That he must have done something to piss you off.” He answers, making me smile slightly. I hate this distance between us. I want his arms around me.

He slowly caresses my face as if understanding how I feel. “They won’t be able to keep me here for long. Stay alert and do what you need to, alright?”
