ELLE POV
I couldn’t allow him take my son away from me,Lydia wanted to beg him but I refused as that would only increase his ego. Such men don’t deserve to be begged. I walked to his car and sat at the passenger’s seat, turning around to look at Lydia and the mansion again.
I didn’t understand anything that was happening but I kept quite and refused to ask any questions yet so as not to anger Logan. The ride was silent as a graveyard which I liked but seemed awkward.
I wanted him to explain the meaning of what he just did back at my place but his expression was blank and angry. As much as I wanted to bug him, I didn’t want him using any of his aura in me.
We arrived at a big uncompleted house which had lights though and I could see figures moving about.
He quickly stepped down and started dragging me towards the entrance. I tried to break free but his grip on my hand was strong for me.
“Stop…you are hurting me.” I said as i couldn’t bare it anymore.
“One more word and I would definitely snap your head from your neck.” He replied with flash of anger in his eyes.
I swallowed back the bile that was in my throat and endured the pain till we got to the third floor where some men were patrolling. Fear gripped me the more as I wondered what he was really going to do to me.
“I’ve done nothing wrong to be dragged out here.” I manage to speak as I also tried to break free which I did.
“Oh really? You want to pretend like you did nothing?” He asked as he stepped close each step he took, I took one step backwards till my back was against the wall.
“You dare cross the line Ember. You shouldn’t have done what you did.” He said as he came face to face with me. Anger rose in my chest and I head butt him before run. I needed to get away and get back to my son, behind me were his men along side him chasing after me.
I tried to put in more speed but the more I tried was he tired I got which slowed me down and he eventually caught me.
“You think you are smart huh?” Before I could reply, I felt something heavy on my head and the next thing I lost my balance and blacked out.
I started to regain my consciousness back, I eying my best to open my eye and obeserve my surrounding only to realize that I have been chained to a chair. I tried to wiggle free but the more I did, the more the metal created wounds in my skin.
The door opened and a man stepped inside with a glass of water.
“You are awake. The Alpha said I should give you some water once you are awake.” He said with a smile as he scanned me thoroughly.
“Why would he send you to do that? And how sure am I that the water is not poisoned?”
As if he knew I would have doubt about been offered water, he took a sip and stepped closer to me.
“See??” He said waiting for me to confirm that everything was fine with the water.
I bent my head as he brought the glast to my mouth. They were smart enough to know that if my hands were not tied I would have caused some pain and escaped.
The goddess knows how much I needed this water. The young man stepped out afterwards and left me to my thoughts. I checked the dark room and realized it had just a small window which a cat couldn’t even pass through. Logan really wanted to see me break down, but what would he gain by imprisoning me.
Seconds turned to minutes and minutes to hours. I got tired of staying awake, watching the door hoping that he would come inside and then we could have a meaningful conversation. But he didn’t come and I slept off.
The sound of people talking woke me up to see Logan and Philip standing and staring at me like I was done piece of trash.
“Why would you tie your mate Logan have you gone insane?”
“She deserves it,I plan on teaching her some lessons and know why I am called the devil.”
“What a fool!! What if she didn’t do it?” Philip asked and I was curious to know what Logan claimed I had done.
“What did I do?” I asked as I stared at Philip or answer which he o lived and provided me with it.
“How can you be stupid to think that I would report you to the press.” I asked.
“Because you are the top on my suspect list. This act could cost me my reputation.”
“What reputation? As far as I am concern you have none.” I replied as anger fueled my body. He was a fool to talk about his reputation when all he did was forsake his child and neglect the rogue community.
“She didn’t do it.” Philip said after a minute or two of silence.
“Let her go,she didn’t do it. If you don’t believe your mate, I do!”
“Are you on my side or against me?”
“You just did a foolish thing by bringing your mate here to a place where we deal with men who go against us. Does she look like a criminal to you?”
“What do you want me to do?” Logan asked like an i***t I’ve always seen him as.
“The right thing Logan, besides your father already cleared up the news.”
He looked at me one more time but this time with hate. Well, I did hate him the more for what he just did to me. The sound of men shouting drawer our attention as Philip tried to free me.
One of the men barged inside the room where I was kept with a heavy breath.
“Alpha, there are some forsakens all over the building and a lady which we found laying unconscious by the road.” He said and Logan gave his orders.
“You’ll remain here till we see to it that everything is fine.” He said before leaving.
Why would he care about my well-being when he dragged me all the way here without a single valid reason.
Logan, you just made things worst.
