chapter 7

All I hear is beeping its driving me

I say, “No, thank you, just please leave me.” She looks at me with pity in her eyes as she walks out

the door.

I lay there alone not knowing how long I've been out for this time. The nurse comes back in with a

plate of food telling me it is lunchtime. It looks delicious. I'm starving. She places the tray down on a

stand by my bed. I thank her, and she leaves me alone to eat.

As I'm eating, Jazz speaks to me. “I thought he was going to kill us this time.”

I responded, “I wish he would have so this hell would just be over. Jazz there is no escaping this life

is there? He said with my mark that he can find me. No matter where I go I will always be brought

back to him.”

Jazz responds, “Yes, but there's a bit-"

I cut her off, “Oh my god! Yes,” I respond, "What is it?"

“When you're on his territory he can scent you anywhere, but once your off he can't scent you as

good. You have to be in a mile radius, but he will feel you once you break through. We don't know

how far his territory goes. It could be 100 to 500 miles or fewer. We need to figure how big it is and

how big his pack is to really plan our escape.”

"Jazz there's hope of escaping this hell! Now what should be our first move?

Jazz responds, “You're not going to like it. What we need to do is gain his trust.”

“You mean I'm going to have to submit to this bastard? I can't he killed my family. Hatred builds up

just looking at him.”

Jazz responds, “You're going to have to learn how to control it if we have any chance in hell to do

this.”

"How long do you think it will take jazz?"

“I don't know Sabrina, but it will be worth it in the end. We will be free.”

I eat the rest of my lunch. The nurse comes in to take my tray. “Excuse me, nurse,” I say.

She looks back at me and says, “Is there something you need?”

"How long have I have been here?”

"About 8 weeks,” she says, “The Alpha knows you're awake. He is probably going to be on his way

soon.”

I ask, “Is there anyway I can get a shower please?”

“Sure,” she responds, “I will get the stuff to use and some clothes.”

“Thank you so much for being so nice. My name is Sabrina,” I say.

“No problem. My name is Joyce,” she responds.

She brings in my clothes, some shampoo, and body wash. She says, “I will help you in to make sure

you're able to walk and keep your balance.”

“Thank you,” I ask, “How do you know the Alpha?”

She responds, “I'm his sister.”

"What? How are you so nice?” I say. It sort of just slips out in my shock.

She laughs, “We are very different people. He does what he has to do even terrible things to keep us

all safe.”

I respond with hatred in my voice, “Including killing innocent people? Kidnapping and torturing

people? He's a monster.”

"He doesn't do anything without good reason,” she responds. She walks me up to the shower. I step

in the shower, and I tell her, “I'm good I can bathe myself.”

She steps out and says, “Pull the emergency string if you need help.”

“Thank you. I'm good.”

I turn the hot water on. It feels so good on my body. I get my washcloth, soap it all up, and go to

clean myself. I see the scars across my body from all the wipe marks. They're fading, but still

noticeable. What a monster he is. I understand she is his sister, and she might see the best in him,

but I don't know how that is at all possible. Wait her name is Joyce. She was the one that told the

Alpha I was weak and that she knew me better than my own mother. Who hell is this woman? Is she

the reason I'm here?

I hear the bathroom door open, and my shower curtain swings open. I jump and turn trying to cover

myself. “Hey, my sweet Sabrina. You're awake. Did you have a nice nap,” he asked? I go to grab the

shower curtain to shut in his face, but he grabs it. “Now Sabrina, please don't test me. Hurry we

need to talk,” he says.

Jazz says to me, “This is your shot, so be careful. Start to gain his trust so we can escape.”

As I finish up my shower I'm scared and nervous to get out, but I know it'll have to be sooner than

later. I don't want to piss him off right off the bat.

I get out of the shower. As I am starting to get dressed he walks in. I jump and back away from him.

I say, “Please Alpha, don't hurt me. I want to get dressed. I'm coming.”

Alpha says, “Then don't give me a reason to hurt you. Sabrina this could have all been avoided if

you just submitted to me in the first place. I have to go. The nurse will bring you dinner, and

someone will be by to pick you up to bring you to my house. Don't create any issues. If you do

there will be consequences. Do you understand Sabrina?”

“Yes Alpha. I understand.”

"Good, that's my good girl.” He leans in to kiss me. I move backwards. "We will finish that later.”

Then he leaves.
