I thank him as I wrap the sheet around myself.
We talk about everything that won’t give away that something is going to happen-the latest book I read, the show he watched on TV the other night. We talk about Mom and how much I resemble her. I have her light brown hair and chocolate brown eyes.
About an hour after dinner, our Alpha walks in with two huge males behind him, and I can tell they are Lycans.
Dad gives me a reassuring smile as I look at him. Apparently, this is my ticket out of here, and for some reason, our Alpha is not pleased.
Both males are about 6’3″ with blond hair and blue eyes. Anyone can see that they are twins, and if I had to bet on it, I would say they are High-ranking Lycans.
“Open her cell,” one of the males says to a Warrior, and our Alpha just nods, though he looks like he wants to object.
“You are charged with assaulting your Luna. The Council has ordered us to bring you to the Academy,” the same male tells me.
“You can leave the sheet in your cell,” the other male says, and with some fright in my eyes, I look at Dad.
“Gentlemen, my Daughter was in a fitting session at the time of the attack. I brought her a change of clothes, as I know she won’t be comfortable in what she’s wearing under that sheet,” Dad says.
I see both males looking from me to Dad, so I decide to show them what I am wearing.
I turn in such a way that only they can see what is underneath the sheet, and I see anger flashing through their eyes.
They order everyone out and tell Dad to hand me the bag with clothes he brought for me. Then, they all walk out of the dungeons.
Ten minutes later, one of the Lycans walks back in and tells me to follow him.
Dad is waiting outside with the other Lycan. He hugs me as he whispers in my ear that we will meet soon. I kiss him on his cheek before I follow one of the Lycans to a black SUV.
The young female who has been covering my station these past few weeks smiles at me, and I get a feeling that she called in my conviction to the Council. Within seconds, the other Lycan gets behind the wheel.
Just as he turns the ignition on, my nightmare jumps in front of the SUV.
Our Alpha quickly pulls him away, and they start arguing as the SUV passes them. I sigh in relief. I know both males heard it, but they don’t say a word as we leave the Pack grounds behind us.
I close my eyes and lean back into the car seat, letting the events of the past day run through my mind.
I have a sinking feeling my nightmare won’t give up easily, and I wonder if I should tell the men in the front seats about him.
As my thoughts race, sleep takes over.
Shouting startles me awake. I am very disoriented as I try to figure out what is going on.
“Damn it, Evander! Keep your eyes on the road. I’ll see where they’re coming from!” the passenger yells. I glance to my left as I see him looking to the right.
“Left,” I say, spotting a wolf emerging from the tree line. Evander swerves, barely avoiding the charging wolf.
I recognize the wolf instantly, and a cold certainty settles over me-this won’t end until he’s dead.
“I know this isn’t the time to tell you my life story, but that wolf won’t stop until he has me or he’s dead,” I say, my voice tight.
For a moment, the wolf seems to vanish, leaving a strange knot in my stomach. I scan the area, turning my head left and right, trying to spot him again. Up front, the men debate whether to take a detour to shake him off.
