The Rescue Team ReturnsRichard’s POV:It was a new day, and the sun was just rising when I finally got up from bed. Since I had gotten up at a ‘healthy time’ as Darren would call it, I decided to go for a run through the forest, to clear my head and as my usual form of exercise.Therefore, I put on my sweatpants and hoodie, and my most used pair of trainers, to go outside. The scent of the outside at the peak of dawn was always the most interesting, and I took in a deep breath before beginning my morning run outside.The run through the forest was exhilarating, and I deeply enjoyed it. My senses were alert as I rushed through with a speed most people would not be able to match, past the large and tall trees, deeper and deeper into the forest where most people would not be. I did not want to be seen that very moment, only to see where the run would take me. When I stopped, I was able to take in deep breaths to calm my racing hear

Arielle's DecisionArielle’s POV:I did not want to hear whatever he had just said to Ethan, but it was hard not to listen in.Being a doctor has taught me many things, after all. And in my few years of practice, I have been able to find that it was a common way for doctors and nurses to keep their senses alert in order to be aware of what their patients might be doing in the next room or something. Unfortunately, while I had developed my senses as a wolf to serve my medical responsibilities to my patients, it also left me with a strange inability to stop myself from picking out certain things, like private conversions held within a radius of where I was.So, when I heard Ethan leave, my mind was wandering as I thought.What had Leon told Ethan to do that he had disobeyed? Or is it that Leon was simply acting out as usual? I did not know what to think, but to me, one thing was definitely certain and that was that Leon had overreac

Arielle’s POV:I gaped at him after he growled out those words. Immediately after astonishment, I felt more anger than I have ever felt in my life at his statement.Take it back? Take my words back because he doesn’t like to hear the truth? Take my words back because it suits him and not me?Because he thinks that he should get a second chance, he dares to threaten me like this?“Who the hell Do you think you are?” I fired back at him, my wolf tearing its head within me. I felt the urge to slap him, hard. “Who the hell gave you the right to talk to me that way? And what makes you think your words even matter to me?” I raised a finger at him, pointing at his face. “I swear to you, Leon. Don’t you even dare to try me, or-““Or what? You’ll leave?!” He snarled back at me, and I blinked at him in shock as he began to chuckle. “Spoiler alert, love. You’re not going anywhere.”I was about to ask him what he meant by that, when all of a sudden he grabbed my arm, firmly, and pulled me.“What?

Arielle’s POV:Day 3 dawned on me with the feeling of pain blooming in my chest, deeper than I had experienced it before.I hissed, opening my blearily eyes to the room that was now filled with sunlight streaming in from the windows. The room was nowhere unwitting prison, and an accomplice in Leon’s acts.I had not been able to sleep well, and I knew without looking in the mirror that my eyes were likely swollen and that the whites of my eyes were very red. I sniffled helplessly, raising myself from the carpeted floor where I had curled up on a fetal position to rest.The pack bond was hurting now more than ever, and I placed my hand over my chest, wishing that I could somehow find a way to ease the pain.It was too much. Everything - from Leon locking me up in here in a guise to keep me, to the loss I felt from not being around my pack, and the pack bond that hurt so damn much. I felt like I was unable to do anything, and the feeling of hopelessness was welled up inside of me.I had

Arielle’s POV:I don’t know how long it took for Ethan to return, but soon, a knock came on the door, followed by him unlocking the door and entering.“Hey,” he said to me, “It’s time for you to go.”“You mean, I can finally be anywhere but here,” I replied pointedly, to which he responded by looking away. “Your move,” I said, folding my hands over my chest.“Dr Grey, don’t make his any harder than it has to be. Come on,” he seemed to be pleading with me now. “I cannot go against Leon.”“You mean to tell me that you trust his words,” I shot back and he looked shocked at me. “I’m not asking you to denounce the Rogues. I just need to leave.”“You’re Leon’s mate-““No. I am not. Not now and not ever,” I retorted.All I wanted to make Ethan see was that Leon was the one manipulating the entire situation. This had nothing to do with me and everything to do with their leader.How could only me see that?Meera seemed to think that it was my fault that I was trapped in this room.Ethan did no
