“Why are we still in lockdown?” | demand, glaring at Blaise. “I thought you said the danger had passed.”

“It has passed, my beauty, I’m merely being cautious.” He insists, reaching up to drag his knuckles over my cheek. “It’s an annoyance to be sure, but one we’ll get through.”

“This is what happens when you abuse your people.” | grumble, “if you don’t want to be annoyed maybe you should respect their rights.”

“Rights.” He scoffs, “more like a city full of spoiled children clamoring for attention and making unreasonable demands.”

“I want to go back to my rooms.” I announce, overflowing with disgust for the horrible man.

“You can’t do that yet.” He informs me brusquely.

“Why, what’s going to happen?” I ask:

“You know I normally don’t mind your sass, but I don’t have the patience for it today.” He gripes, turning away from me.

“Wait!” | exclaim, clasping onto his arm as a rush of inspi ration strikes me. We‘re in his safe room surrounded by guards, but a man as paranoid as Blaise made sure his emer gency refuge was large and comfortable, so our audience is safely out of hearing distance. Forcibly settling my blazing temper, I adopt the meditative calm I’ve learned to embody to capture the Alpha’s mind, and stare deep into his eyes.

“Please, tell me what’s going on?” | beg sweetly, pulling at his tongue with hypnotic force.

His tense muscles relax, and he speaks in a dull droning voice. “There was a prison break.” He utters emotionlessly. “The rebels freed everyone from my dungeons.”

It takes all my willpower to stay in my calm trance, be cause my heart is immediately trying to leap out of my chest. “Do you still have Bastien?” | whisper anxiously.

“No.” Blaise announces in the same stoic tone, “that’s why we’re here. He’ll be coming for you.”

My mind is racing a hundred miles a minute. I can’t be lieve it, I went back with Blaise when Bastien was already free. If I’d fought him in the park like I wanted to, this could all have been over by now. “Won’t you please let me go back to my rooms.” I plea, stroking his arm, “the babies are making me tired and I need a nap.”

“Go back to your rooms,” he repeats dully, “I’ll tell the guards.”
