Annettes POV

There were guards on both sides of the cell wall. But I think there were three more at least on the other side of the cinder blocks. There was a security room just off in the corner behind a large steel door. They had cameras on me and they were watched 24/7.

The man with green eyes came and saw me twice a day once in the morning after I’d woken up and once in the evening during dinner.

He wouldn’t say much and I still didn’t know his name. I’m sure Grayson had told it to me but I couldn’t recall.

The man named Simon was around constantly. I’m sure he was higher up in the pack ranks and he was a very clever

Still, he got assigned to babysitting duty. I had tried to aggravate him by pointing this out and get under his skin but he just looked me in the eyes and said.

“You should be very grateful it’s me looking after you and not one of the other men in the pack,”

My skin went cold the way he said and I knew exactly what he meant. He wasn’t a very cruel man and I don’t think he wanted to be keeping me there but this was his pack and he was doing as he was told.

“Good morning Simon,”

“Good morning Annette, how’s the nausea this morning?” He looked up at me from a clipboard.

“Not that bad,” I shrugged.

“Very good,” he gave me a smile before going around the corner to whatever desk he sat at. He came back with the pump for my breast milk.

I took it and waited as it took away my milk. Then after the pumping was done I watched as he threw it away.

I looked away and reminded myself to not think about it. Don’t shut down, keep going. I couldn’t let that thought break like it would if I had to keep going.

Simon was giving me shots of silver once a day he was trying to ease me off of it to the right consistency so that I was weak but not drugged into a vegetative state.

“isn’t he a gentleman.

From what I could tell the man with the green eyes expected me to eventually give in and be his wife. Which wasn’t gonna happen.

Other than that I didn’t know much, I didn’t know where I was, I didn’t know anyone else’s name, and I didn’t know if

Grayson was on his way.

There

things I did know. I knew I wasn’t on their pack lands, every once in a while aguant would come in with nd it smelled like the sea, so I knew I was on a coast.

I wish I could say I knew which coast but I was impressed I could smell that much. I still had no connection to my wolf, the lovely goal of my little silver shots.

With Seraphine stripped from me. I was as fragile as a human. I had no strength, no smell, and no connection to my husband.

I didn’t dream either. Every night I would go to sleep and I would see pitch black. I had a feeling this was another side

effect from Simon

“Bacon and eges for breakfast this morning.” Simon came over with the tray and slid it through the small slot on the

floor.

“Joy.” I glared at him.

“I see you’re still upset,” be siped” must remind you, you are not my Luna yet, so I don’t take my orders from you”

He had knocked me unconscious the day before I had started working out in secret at night but then he came in with two large guards and pinned me down knocking me unconscious with that f**king needle again.

He acted like he wanted to be my friend as if I could find peace in a place like this. I kept on repeating and repeating to him that I had a home, a life, a fimb, a so-

ori

“Don’t say that. Don’t think of it or it kill you.

I daydreamed every day that Grayson would barge through the door, rip the cell open and carry me home. I felt like a child wishing a prince would rescue me.

I had been useless throughout my pregnancy but at least I was growing a ba-. At least there was a reason.

Now I had no reason and I still was useless. I had to rely on my family to get me out of here, but I couldn’t do that.

I’d started tracking the guards seeing who watched over me and when. So far I had half the week’s schedule down.

The one guard with water in his hair was here on Mondins and Thursdays. He was always partnered with a guard who

had horrible B.O.

On Tuesday there was a pair of brothers who were scrawny and they didn’t have much attention span. They constantly talked to one another and couldn’t stay quiet. Simon would remind them again and again they shouldn’t speak in front

They didn’t say much of importance only that their friends were arguing about this stupid thing or that their parents should get more snacks.

On Wednesday there was a guard with a mole on his neck shaped like buey can almost and the other guard was bald. They were the largest out of the group and the most resistant to my efforts to annoy them.

I had been trying to get any form of information out of the people closest to me but to no avail. I had to stop when

the man with green eyes came down one day and told me if I didn’t he’d keep in a coma until he’d killed my husband.

So I spat in his face.

That earned me another day of unwelcome rest.

I was doing everything I could think of to figure out how to escape and so far the only thing I’d learned is when I did I’d have to do it at night when everyone was asleep and Simon wasn’t around. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The issue with this was they knew that was my best plan to escape so the night guards were the best trained. They had syringes at their sides ready to knock me out if I moved an inch.

Before I could move but when I started working out behind my screen they decided that I wasn’t allowed to move at all

“f**king narc Simon

“Good morning Annette how’d you sleep,” the man with green eyes entered the room.

“Fuck You.” I gave him the same response as I always did.

“Still as classy as ever,” he sighed. “You know when this is all over you’ll laugh at how reacted in the first place,” he chuckled as if he was right.

“When this is all over my husband going to open you up like a fish,” I corrected him.

He hated that when I talked about Grayson his eyes would flicker for a second as if I’d hit him.

“You know that won’t happen don’t you,” he looked down at me on my bed.

I just stared back at him, I wasn’t going to be the one to bend.

“Be that way,” he waved me off and went back out and up the stairs.

I just had to find a way to start mapping out the pack and then from there, I could figure out an escape route.

The only issue was that I had no way to see outside. I knew the best way was to start humoring that sadist who kept me locked up but I’d rather scoop my own eyes out.

Then the brothers came down for their shift. “So I had to go across the pack to the watchtower to cover for him,”
