CAGED WOLF' inmate 0-7-7-4-1 (r18) Doc's Silence
POV: RickiRicki saw it from the back of the dosing line, three men behind a witch whose hands shook so hard she had to grip her own wrist to keep the paper cup steady. The line crept forward the way it always did, slow and sour, everybody shuffling with their eyes fixed on the floor tiles. Up ahead, a vampire with gums the color of raw liver traded cigarettes to Odile's runner for a dose that might actually register. A wolf near the front paid a different currency, a younger guy with his jumpsuit zipped to the throat, and the runner's hand rested on the back of his neck a beat too long while the guard at the door studied the ceiling tiles like they held some answer.Ricki kept his eyes down with everybody else.Then he reached the window and Doc was there, and something in him went quiet.Doc looked different. Nothing he could point to exactly. The same soft hands, the same careful, cramped handwriting on the clipboard. But he stood straighter than before, shoulders drawn back like a
CAGED WOLF' inmate 0-7-7-4-1 (r18) Blood Debt
POV: LeonThe debts Leon Church inherited from dead men were dangerous because the people holding them had nothing left to lose.Corso found him in the Undercroft a little after count, uninvited, which was the first mistake. Nobody came down those stairs without being sent for. Leon heard him before he saw him, a slow, scraping walk, one foot dragging against concrete with a sound like a file on stone. He set down his pencil and closed the ledger before the man reached the bottom step.Corso had been a big vampire once. The frame of it still showed, wide shoulders caged under a jumpsuit that hung wrong now, the collar loose around a neck gone stringy and corded with tendon. His gums had pulled back from his teeth the way they did on men who'd lived on commissary blood packets for a decade instead of the real thing, the fangs too long now, yellowed at the root, jutting from a mouth that looked like it hurt to close all the way. Eleven years on the block. Most of them spent as somebody
CAGED WOLF' inmate 0-7-7-4-1 (r18) The Yard at Night
POV: RickiThe yard after dark was a different country. No guards walked the fence line, no count crackled over the speaker, no careful species geography dictated who got to stand where. Just concrete and moonlight and the dizzying freedom of being somewhere he wasn't supposed to be. His skin still carried the suppressant itch, a low simmer under his sternum like something trying to claw its way free, but out here, under open sky, the itch felt almost bearable.Tucker had shown him the gap weeks ago, almost in passing, the way Tucker handed over most of his information. "There's a fifteen-minute window between the eleven-thirty patrol and the midnight one," he'd said, voice low and amused, picking at his commissary candy bar as though the information cost him nothing to give away. "Camera on the east corner's had a blind spot since before you got here. Nobody's fixed it because nobody wants to admit it's there." Ricki hadn't thought much of it at the time. Tonight, lying awake with hi
CAGED WOLF' inmate 0-7-7-4-1 (r18) The Ward-Lattice
POV: KaiaTam said the lattice was feeling wrong, and Kaia had assumed she meant it metaphorically, the way you'd say a room feels wrong when something's off in it you can't quite name - until she put her hands on a ward-panel and felt the wrongness crawl up her arms like something alive, something with intention, something that knew her hands were there and didn't especially want them to be.Tam found her in the maintenance corridor before her shift, waiting by the door marked LATTICE ACCESS with two mugs of something that passed for coffee, bitter and thin, and handed one over without a word. They'd fallen into a rhythm over the past two weeks, working the lattice together whenever their shifts overlapped, piecing together what they could about the Hush one careful, dangerous discovery at a time. It had been two weeks since Kaia found Sera's cell, since the name Mateo settled into her chest and stayed there, heavy and unresolved. She'd written to Griff that same week, a short letter
CAGED WOLF' inmate 0-7-7-4-1 (r18) Marisol's Drift
POV: RickiShe stopped visiting after the first time, and Ricki told himself it was because she was busy. He almost believed it.He'd gotten good at almost believing things here, the kind of half-truth that let him function, that let him stand for count with his bare feet going numb on the concrete and swallow the flat, tasteless food and make it through another day without the full weight of what he'd lost crushing his ribs flat against his spine. Marisol had visited once, back at the start of all this, her palm pressed to the glass from her side while his pressed to his from the other, the closest they'd been since the verdict. The glass had been cold. He remembered that more than anything, the cold bleeding through into his fingers while her mouth moved, shaping the words *I'll come back.* He'd believed her the way a man believes someone he's loved since he was seventeen, easily, completely, without thinking to ask for proof.She hadn't come back. Nine months had passed, enough of
CAGED WOLF' inmate 0-7-7-4-1 (r18) Tucker's Truth
POV: TuckerThe thing about being unable to lie was that eventually, if you spent enough time with someone, the truths you didn't say became louder than the ones you did.Tucker had lived his whole life inside that particular trap, the fae curse that wasn't really a curse so much as a design flaw built into the architecture of what he was. He couldn't lie - not outright, not even the small, kind lies most people used to grease the gears of ordinary conversation. *You look fine. It's not a big deal.* Those sentences didn't exist for him, and so he'd learned to live in the narrow country between what was technically true and what people actually wanted to hear. It had made him good at reading a guard's weak spot, running a con that never required a false word, surviving a building that ran on lies by becoming the one person in it who couldn't tell any.It had also made silence the only lie available to him, and silence, it turned out, was its own kind of confession if you listened to it
