Julian's POV I don't know how long I've been down here. But they don't leave me alone for long. Somebody is constantly coming in here and waking me up by beating me or raping me.Alpha kept his word. He came in next and had his way with me. His way is the worst. He likes to cut me as he fuck me. He says he likes to watch my blood run down my body, it turns him on he said.I don't even know how I'm still alive as I look down at all the blood on the floor, dried and new. I don't even have the strength to lift my head anymore. My breathing is shallow, my lungs burned with every breath I take. I can barely even look out of my eyes, they're so swollen. My body is literally covered in blood. Most of it dripping from between my legs. I'm certain I probably look a they took a meat shredder to my ass. It sure feels like it.My left knee doesn't look normal and hurts

  Thaddeus's POV   With Damien carrying Julian, Reid in my arms, and the warriors carrying the twins, we raced toward the door.   Before we got to the door I heard gears turning before the sound of a lock clicking... I stopped at the door for a moment, trying to figure out what I was hearing.    I realized they were trying to close the door and lock it. There's only one problem... the door was broken and thrown off its hinges from Reid.   As soon as that realization hit me I yelled, "RUN!"   With me leading, I took off running as fast as I could with everyone following closely behind me.   We kept running until we cleared Ace's territory and kept going until we got home.   They did not anticipate Reid and

Damien's POV My breath catches in my throat as I feel his lips on my neck. I feel his tongue press against my neck as he licks before kissing it again. "May I have a taste?" He asked with his lips still against my neck. "A taste?" What is he talking about? "I haven't had blood in a long time. May I have a taste of you, of your blood?" He says as he places an open mouth kiss on my neck. I bite my lip trying to hold back a moan. My brain doesn't want to function properly so clouded by this muscular man that has me wrapped up in his arms. I simply nod my head not able to speak. I feel his fangs as they graze against my neck and a slight pinch before I am suddenly yanked backwards and almost fall over. Next I hear a loud thunderous growl and the sound of somebody hitting the wall. I shake my head to snap out of it, I'm finally able to see what's going on as I take in the scene in front of me. Thaddeus is growing as he holds

Julian's POVI opened my eyes quickly while taking in a sharp breath. Oh Goddess no, please no more!  I think as my chest rapidly rises and falls. My head quickly moving around as my eyes dart around the room fast, trying to figure out what's going on.I don't recognize where I'm at. Everything's white. My breath catches in my throat when I look to my left and see a bed next to me."Reid." I whispered as I feel my lip tremble. I feel the tears start running down my face.It's my Reid, I think as I look at him. Is it's really him. I slowly sit up expecting intense pain but I don't feel it. I looked down at my body and I'm surprised at what I see. All the cuts and wounds from the whip are healed. It hardly even look like it ever happened .I see a few that were deeper that are almost healed. I slowly bring my trembling hand up and lightly run my fingers

Reid's POV"You're, you're not mad at me anymore?" Julian asked, so sweet and innocently that it broke my heart. It broke my heart thinking I ever thought someone so innocent and pure as he is would hurt me....  That I let the alpha side of me doubt him so openly and made him cry. "No baby,  I'm so sorry for ever doubting you." I said then kissed his forehead. He looked down and still seemed so sad. Before I could say anything he said, " is, is it bad for me to have male friends, will that make you angry with me?" Shit.... I'm an ass."No baby, you can be friends with anyone you want...  I just thought the wrong thing. I promise to never doubt you again love." I said as I lifted his face by placing my fingers under his chin. I looked into those beautiful eyes of his and wanted nothing more than to shelter him from everything evil in the world forever." Reid is it?" I heard Xavier sa
