The Alpha of Wolf Creek のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

ConnorFive and a half hours of being in a cramped airplane next to a grumpy Joel hadn’t improved my mood. I really wanted to see Rossi's villa beforehand to know what to expect. Fortunately, the rental car was ready and waiting for us the moment we arrived at the airport.“Maxwell isn’t answering his goddamned phone.” Joel complained. He’s been texting the vampire non-stop.I drove to the hotel that I booked earlier, which was a block away from the airport. “Forget about Frank for a minute and focus on what’s important. We must get Cassie back.” They kept sending regular pictures updating me on Cassie’s well-being. She seemed fine, but I didn’t trust them. In the meantime, I texted Eric with instructions to send our best trackers to keep me informed on Lyon’s movements, which might lead to where Cassie was being kept.Eric knew me well enough to keep quiet about it. I didn’t want the elders to find out about what was happening, and I didn’t want to raise the alarm. Panic causes chaos

AgnesI should have gotten a burner phone, I berated myself. What was I thinking? Now I have no way of getting in contact with Joel or Connor. Everything happened so fast, though. I’m still reeling from seeing Rossi’s picture in that file. Gods! My past threatened to catch up with us. Will I ever be free of Frank and his goons?“Aaah!” I tore my hair in frustration. Now they had Cassie, and God knows what awful things they were doing to my baby.No, I couldn’t sit here in this stifling house for one more minute. I had to find her. A wave of dizziness and nausea came over me when I stood up too quickly from the bed.With a groan, I sat back down, waiting for the sick feeling to pass. It had to be all the stress making me feel so dizzy and awful these last two days. I couldn’t keep anything down and the heat wasn’t helping, either.But I was determined not to let my health stop me. Connor mentioned a man named Lyon, and that was where I would begin my search.If Lyon saw Rossi as a riva

CassandraThose two idiots had a huge argument over what to do with me. While they were busy, I pried open one window in the bedroom with some effort. The opening was boarded shut from the outside, but if I tried hard enough, I would have been able to loosen one just enough for me to squeeze through.And I would have succeeded too had Max not burst into the bedroom to check up on me.“Hey!” He grabbed me by the scruff of my neck, lifting me like a toy. “Trying your luck again, are we?”Hearing the commotion, Alex appeared to intervene. “Max…” his tone held a warning.“Bitch was trying to escape. I’m tying her to the bed.” Next minute he threw me down onto the dusty mattress and pinned me down with his weight. “Give me the zip ties!” he snarled at his brother.I struggled and cursed at them, but they secured both my wrists to the bedpost.“There!” Max grinned. “Now we can get some decent sleep.” He pinched my cheeks together and blew me a kiss.I almost threw up in my mouth. They left

ConnorKeep on breathing, I told myself. The wolfsbane still burned through my veins and my brain, although it lessened slightly. Miles was in agony, but he was strong. We trained for this, Miles reminded me. Yes, we trained to withstand torture, but nothing prepared us for being someone’s experiment. This was next level.The only thing that kept me from losing my mind was Cassie. I concentrated on her tiger eyes, the way they lit up when she gave me one of her mischievous smiles. We had to survive this, get her back, get my pack back. Goddess knows what evil plans Lyon had or how many warriors he had waiting in the wings.I prayed Joel made out safely.“Make the enemy believe you are weak.” I heard my father’s voice in my mind. “They will relax their guard, then you strike.”But now, I wasn’t exactly faking it. Miles struggled to regain his strength. Our healing progressed, but it took a lot out of him.“How are we doing today, Connor?” White Coat came shining with his blasted light

ConnorFrom where I lay on the floor of the cage, I assessed my surroundings. Now that I was no longer on that steel table, I could scope out the place to plan my escape. I would play weak for as long as it took to put them totally at ease, making them confident that they had won. Peering out from beneath my lashes, I saw the guards approaching with… a water hose? What the fuck?‘Don’t react,’ Miles warned. ‘They probably want to test your strength.’“Mr. Rossi said you needed water,” the guard said, grinning evilly. "Okay, let it rip!" he shouted to another.Icy water shot out from the hose, right in my face. The guard cackled with amusement. I fought the instinct to jump up and shove that hose right up where the sun doesn’t shine. Instead, I groaned and lapped at the water that stung my face. It did little to ease my dry throat. I was seriously dehydrated.“Had enough? You could do with a shower as well, Fido. You stink.” He was thoroughly enjoying himself with that hose, spraying m
