Chapter 7

954 Words
Myra POV All I knew was that I was really uncomfortable. I tried to roll over onto my side, trying to find a position that would make this hard mattress more desirable to sleep on, but my face hit a wall. “Ahhhh” my eyes snapped open. I sat up, rubbing my forehead. Wait, where was i? All I could see was darkness. I felt incredibly groggy and stupid. Something was tugging at my memory, but my mind felt too lazy to make sense of it. I felt the space around me, trying to get my eyes to adjust to the total darkness. It seemed i was in a dungeon. Why wasn't I home? Where was pop? Finally the memories came flooding in. “oh no, oh no no” I whispered, as the panic invaded my mind, fully awakening me with a jolt. Did I really kill four members of my pack? “Awake now huh?” a raspy voice called, scaring the absolute crap out of me. “s**t!” i jumped up. My eyes landed on the bars to my cell, and through them i could see an old man grinning over me in the adjacent cell to mine. His teeth were missing in places and yellowed in others. “I didn't scare you now, did I?” he asked, giving me an appraising look “U-um.” my throat felt insanely dry. I gave a little cough and swallowed hard. “No, sorry.” “What did you end up in the dungeons for beautiful? Had to be pretty bad to end up here. Especially all covered in blood like” I looked down at myself automatically and for the first time i noticed my attire, which consisted of just an overlarge t shirt. I should probably feel exposed, but it was dark, and i had way too much else to worry about. Contrary to his words, i didnt actually notice any blood. I checked my hair and again, no blood. Old, creepy guy noticed my assessment. “They took you outta here and sprayed you down somewhere. Alphas orders. You slept right on through it.” he shrugged Fear jolted through my system. Alphas orders? So he survived my attack. Did all of them? No. I remembered taking out their hearts. Why wasn’t I dead yet? Probably waiting for me to wake up so they could torture me. If my punishment for my supposed infidelity was r**e before, i couldn't imagine what it would be for attempted murder. My heart was racing and oldie heard it. His voice was suddenly cold. “Don’t like the alpha? I don't blame you. Liam’s a real piece of s**t. Can’t be trusted as far as you can throw him. He’s quick to turn on his own people and arrogant too. Our pack started to go downhill the second he took over” “Liam?” I asked confused. I only knew of one Liam and that was Alpha Liam of Silver Moon pack “Yeah, he never told you his name did he, before he threw you in here? Just insisted you call him alpha i bet. Useless prick” this guy clearly was not a fan. “You ever gonna answer my question and tell me what you did? I been dying to know since they put you in here.” I ignored him. I couldn't even believe i had done it. I wasn't about to tell this stranger anything. “Where am I?” I asked instead. “You don't know where you are?” surprise colored his voice “You’re in Silvermoon pack. Locked down here in the dungeons, same as me.” He was eyeing me suspiciously again. It was like i thought, only how the hell had I ended up in silver moon? It was supposed to be incredibly dangerous to even attempt to cross these boarders. I remembered the great paws i saw before i passed out. Had that been one of the warriors? Had i managed to cross the pack line? I wanted to ask how long id been here, but before i could we both turned to the sound of approaching footsteps. Lights flickered on above us and a handsome blonde man appeared in front of me. “You gonna let me out, Mason? I've done my time haven't I? This is no way to treat your father and beta of the pack!” The blondie, Mason, looked extremely tired. “Retired beta. Im beta now remember? And no i haven't come to let you out. You have not served the appropriate time.” he lowered his voice “Next time they might kill you, dad. You have to learn the consequences of your actions before it comes to that and we might not be around to stop it next time.” I shuddered. Was this man planning to kill his own father? Everything the old man had said was true. Killing of even a retired beta was unheard of in my pack. Alpha Liam was a ruthless, evil man who didnt care about his people and apparently his current beta was just as bad. Mason turned his attention back to me, speaking over his fathers renewed ranting. “You will come with me now. We have some questions we need to ask you” “Don’t try anything.” he warned me. “ I have a syringe of wolfsbane on me that I'm ready to use and guards surrounding the dungeons. Even if you tried to escape, you wouldn't be able to find your way out.” I nodded and he opened the door to my cell, motioning me to follow him.
