205Alyssa’s POVWhen they were done with me, I didn’t know how long I’d been down there. Time didn’t exist in that cold little hole, only the ache in my wrists where the chains had rubbed my skin raw, only the bruises blooming under my dress like ugly flowers. I could taste blood where I had bitten the inside of my cheek to keep me from crying out too loudly.When they finally unlocked the chains, I could hardly stand. Reynold didn’t look at me. Reece did, but only to sneer when I stumbled trying to pull my dress down over my knees. Ryan’s face was the worst, blank, cold, like I was nothing but a stain they needed to scrub away.He didn’t say a word. None of them did. They just turned and left me there on the cold floor until two guards came in.The guards didn’t meet my eyes either. Maybe they pitied me, maybe they didn’t. It didn’t matter. Their hands were rough as they hauled me up. My legs buckled on the first step and my shoulder slammed the stone wall. I bit my lip so hard I ta

203Alyssa’s POVThe pain came slowly at first. A dull twist in my stomach, then sharper, spreading like fire under my ribs. I curled up on the cold floor beside my bed, one hand pressed to my belly, the other clutching the edge of the blanket like it could anchor me to the world.I had pushed the cup away, had spilled most of it, but a few drops were all it took. I could taste it still at the back of my throat, bitter and wrong.I wanted to cry but no tears came. I felt too dry, like my body was squeezing itself from the inside out.A small sound slipped out of me, half a whimper. I pressed my lips tight, afraid someone would hear. If Ingrid knew I was still alive, she would try again. I had to be careful.My head spun. I tried to stand but the pain doubled me over again. I held onto the bedpost and squeezed my eyes shut.“Tara,” I breathed. “Please… Tara.”I didn’t know if she would come. I didn’t know if she was even close. But the room felt too small, too silent, and I couldn’t do

202Alyssa’s POVI didn’t sleep well after Ryan left. I lay there in the dim hush of my room, the blanket pulled tight under my chin, the faint taste of him still warm on my mouth. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw his; that flicker of softness that turned to steel the second he pulled away.No. The word echoed in my head like a ghost.No, he had said, to me, to himself, to whatever fragile thing we might have let slip between our ribs if we’d been braver.When dawn finally slipped through the cracks in my shutters, I pushed myself up. My body ached from yesterday, the shovel, the dirt, the climb out of my own grave. But more than that, I felt hollow. Like someone had scooped the warmth from my chest and left nothing behind but frost.I dragged myself from bed. The floor was cold under my bare feet, but I didn’t flinch. I pulled on my plain grey dress, the one with the patched elbow and the tiny tear near the hem that I never found time to fix. I combed my fingers through my hair and

201Ingrid’s POVI saw him before he saw me. Ryan slipped out of that wretched little servant’s room like he was a thief in the night, boots tracking filth across my polished floors, shirt wrinkled, hair mussed in a way that made my stomach twist. He didn’t even bother to straighten it before stalking down the hall like something was burning behind his eyes.He didn’t look my way, but I saw enough. I saw the way his hand flexed at his side, fingers brushing his lips like he could wipe her taste from his mouth.I felt heat crawl up my neck, a flush of rage so sharp it made my teeth ache. So that was it, then. That worthless little shadow had wormed her way under his skin too.Regardless of how alluring I was, they always still had a soft spot somewhere for her. Sweet, meek Alyssa who didn’t even know how to stand up straight unless someone pinned her to a wall.“Tch!”I turned on my heel before Ryan could glance back and see me watching. Let him think I hadn’t noticed, let him think he

250~Sabrina’s POVI stared at the ceiling, my fingers clenching around the edge of the blanket. I hated how everything in my life had become this waiting game, waiting for news, waiting for control, waiting for the moment I could finally wipe that smug innocence off Bella’s face.Bella.I rolled my eyes just thinking of her. Sweet little Bella, all soft edges and tragic tears. The precious puppet Alex now kept at his side.I used to be the one he touched like that. I used to be the one who got his attention.Until he tossed me aside.A toy that had lost its charm.Now he had her.And I was done watching her win.My phone buzzed on the nightstand, slicing through my rage like a knife. I reached over and snatched it without hesitation. A message from my private investigator.Finally.I tapped it open.Apologies, Sabrina. Correction from my earlier message. The man connected to Bella is actually named Richard, not Victor. That was an error on my part. Bella’s father is Richard. Just got

191Alyssa’s PovA few days had passed since I came back fully to the pack, and those days went by with Tara encouraging me to stay strong and patient. Truly, I hoped that things would change for me, but it was getting difficult to wait.“Just when exactly will I be happy?” I said as I stared into blank space.I glanced towards the window, looking at my favorite shape of the moon; crescent. But it didn’t make me feel hope or good like it usually did.“My strength is waning already, moon goddess. You’ve got to do something.” I urged, wishing so hard that this was the prayer she would finally answer.I took in a deep breath and let it out before I rose to my feet. I stretched and did a little exercise before I walked towards my door, opened it and headed off to Tara’s room.On getting to her door, I knocked gently, waiting patiently for her to open up. In no time, the door clicked open and she poked her head out. Her face looked tired, and her lips were dry and cracked.“Do not tell me
