Kaylee's P.O.V. "How long do you think I need to stay locked in here?" I asked as Scarlett smacked her hand of cards down on the table and shouted 'Gin'. She had won every round so far. It wasn't because I was distracted. It was because I genuinely sucked at the game, but besides watching television, we didn't have much else to do. At times, it reminded me of being back in the facility. I would start to feel the panic of being caged in like an animal until my captures were ready to feed from me. Then, whoever was on babysitting duty for the day would bring me back to reality. "I have no clue," She said as I gathered the cards and began to shuffle. "If you need to get some air, you should ask Parker to go for a walk with you." "I'm not sure he wants the extra stress of me being exposed." I shrugged before dealing the cards. Scarlett tried not to react when she looked at her hand, but the small twitch in the corner of her mouth before she schooled her features to let me know that I

Kaylee's P.O.V. This was it. I could feel the change in the air, telling me something terrible was about to happen as Parker left the room. I glanced over my shoulder as discretely as I could to see his back for a second before he rounded the corner to leave the packhouse and was gone. Hudson wasted no time closing the metal door and sliding the lock in place before turning back to me. "Do you need a hand getting over the dresser?" I turned away from him, shaking my head as the lump in my throat prevented me from speaking. Parker was out there right now running toward a battle that I still didn't understand and felt wasn't necessary. Meanwhile, I was stuck here hiding. It was pathetic. I wanted to be able to help him, but I knew the only way I could, would be if I listened to him and kept myself safe so he wouldn't have to worry about me. I glanced over the top of the long oak dresser and could see a small space between the bathtub and the piece of furniture. The tiny room seemed m

Parker's P.O.V. The pack was silent as they took in the information. I was stunned myself. Kaylee was the daughter of the Blood Moon Alpha. It explained everything… how she could partially shift, why I became stronger after mating with her, and why I could smell wolf on her. She was a half-breed between her father being a wolf and her mother being an oracle. But it was more than that. She had Alpha blood. When she shifted, she would be one of the strongest she-wolves in the world. It was no wonder why my wolf didn't want to listen to Gabriel. Kaylee was my Alpha, and as she was my mate, we were equals. We would listen and be controlled by no one. "I take it by your stunned silence that I just blew your mind. That's okay. I have that effect on people. Now, get these damn chains off me and take me to my sister." He snapped at Gabriel, who looked equally as taken aback by the revelation. Gabriel's eyes flickered over to me, and I

  Kaylee's P.O.V. I kept my eyes on Parker's face as I held my arm out to him, leaning back against the bookcase closest to the door. I knew that if I looked down at the needle, I would lose my nerve. His touch was soft, gentle. I barely felt the small piece of metal as he slid it into my inner elbow. I knew it was there though and that was enough to send my mind running. The haziness had just started to lessen, but the pinch of my skin breaking had it all coming back. I was waiting for them to pull out another set of chains. Silver bands that would hold me down to the chair, the same as they had done to my alleged brother. "You're doing great," Parker whispered as he continued to work. His gaze stayed down, but I kept my stare on his beautiful brown eyes. He was a welcome distraction, the only one that I had ever found to effectively ground me. "How do you know how to do this?" I asked back quietly, not wanting t

I didn't realize what I was doing until it happened. My fist pulled back before launching forward and connecting with his face. His eyes widened in surprise as his nose crunched, and he fell back into the seat of his chair. "Alright, that's enough," Gabriel ordered before gesturing to the other seat for me to sit down. He didn't need to order or command me. I was shocked by my own actions and the fact that I was able to knock a grown man on his ass and sat down willingly. "Wait until this silver and wolf's bane is out of my system and try that again, I dare you." Oliver threatened nasally as he held his nose closed and tilted his head back. "Watch it, pup!" Parker snarled at Oliver's threat before moving to stand behind our two chairs. "I said, that's enough!" Gabriel growled, rising to his feet and placing his hands flat on his desk as he leaned forward threateningly. "One more word out of any of you, and all three of you will be in the dungeons for the rest of the night." I pur
