《The Little Canary of the Alpha》全部章節：第 131 章 - 第 140 章

Elion POV.My foot slammed hard and fast onto the brake pedal. The car jerked to a sharp stop, tires screeching loudly against the road. My hands gripped the steering wheel so tight my knuckles turned white, my whole body tense. My mind had been on edge ever since I drove away from Brielle’s dorm — truth be told, I’ve been on edge ever since the day I told her everything.I told her the full truth about the past. I told her exactly why her parents were murdered. I explained the old hatred, the fight between our families, and how Darian Cross killed them just to get what he wanted.And it’s not just her secret and her past that weigh me down. Problems keep piling up, one after another. There is the trouble with Elvie’s parents — they have been stirring up chaos, making things harder than they need to be. Then there are the rogues, appearing more and more often around my territory, bold and dangerous. And inside the pack? Things are worse. Thanks to Elvie and her family, more and more p

Brielle POV.I opened my eyes slowly. My head felt heavy, like it was stuffed with cotton, and a dull ache throbbed right behind my forehead. I blinked a few times, trying to clear the blurry haze, and looked up at a ceiling I did not recognize.It was high, plain white, and completely unfamiliar. The walls around me were the same color, smooth and cold-looking. The bed I was lying on was hard, covered with thin, stiff sheets.Where am I? I wondered, my mind still foggy. What happened?Bits and pieces of last night floated back to me. I remembered standing by the window, watching Elion drive away. I remembered seeing a shadow under the trees. Then I went to sleep…

Brielle POV.It has been three days since I woke up in this strange, cold room. Three days of white walls, hard beds, and the same silence broken only by footsteps or the click of the lock.I rubbed the spot on my arm where the needle had gone in earlier. It was sore, and small marks dotted my skin from all the times they had taken blood.“What are you doing with my blood?” I asked again, my voice calm, though I hated the question.This was the last time they would take it today. I had learned their routine perfectly by now. Every morning, every lunch, every time before I slept—same time, same way, same cold hands holding me still.Elvie stood by the door, her red dress bright as always, her lips twisted in that ugly, mocking smile she always wore. She laughed sharply when she heard my question.“Why keep asking, Brielle?” she sneered, tilting her head. “There’s no difference if you know the truth or not. All you need to understand is simple: you are just our lab rat now. Nothing more

Brielle POV.One minute later, I stood in front of the small mirror on the wall. I was wearing Elvie’s bright red dress—the one that matched her lipstick, the one she always wore like a badge of pride. I had pulled my hair up the exact way she always did, smoothing it and pinning it until it looked just like hers. From a distance, or in dim light… anyone would think I was her.God… please help me pull this plan through… I prayed silently, my hands shaking just a little as I adjusted the collar of the dress.I slipped my feet into her high heels. They were tall, thin, and uncomfortable. I let out a long, shaky breath, trying to steady myself. I was not used to wearing things like this. I stumbled a little at first, my ankles wobbling, but I forced myself to walk back and forth slowly, getting used to the height and the way they clicked on the floor. Elvie always walked in these—confident, loud, like she owned every step she took. I had no choice but to do the same.My whole plan to esc

Brielle POV.Questions swirled in my head—Where am I? How far from home? Why is there an ocean here?—but thinking was not on my list right now. I didn’t have time for confusion or guessing.My sharp ears caught the sound instantly. From the left side of the building, heavy, fast footsteps. From the right side, more steps, coming closer, louder every second.No, no, no! I need to get out of here!Panic shot through me, sharp and hot. I didn’t look back. I didn’t hesitate. I turned and ran as fast as I could, bare feet slapping hard against the rough ground, legs pumping with all the strength I had.The tall trees rose up right in front of me, dark and thick. I dove straight into the forest, branches whipping against my arms and face, leaves rustling loudly as I pushed through. The red dress fluttered behind me, bright and obvious, but I couldn’t slow down to fix it.A sharp, loud sound tore through the air—WAAAAAA!The siren blared non-stop, high and terrifying. Right after it, bright,
