Chapter 0062
“Yes sir, Mr. Gruff and Grumpy.” I move to get out of the car, trying not to stumble with my arms and legs bound. When I finally get out of the car, I stand up and….nothing.
“Hello? Did you want me to squat right here? I can’t see anything and I can
barely move, idiot.” He snarls at me, grabbing my arm and yanking me close to his face. Even through the hood I can smell his rancid breath. It makes me gag. Shut the fuck up little girl or I’ll shut you up.”
A ferocious snarl sounds behind him and the next thing I know, he is ripped away from me. The Beta. I can smell him through the stench of rogue. “I apologize for my companion’s lack of manners.” He pulls the hood off my head. I squint at the light before my eyes adjust.
“Yeah. Kidnapping? No problem. Bad manners? Definitely worthy of a beatdown.” “Did anyone ever tell you that you have a smart mouth?”
“I might have heard that once or twice.” I give him a fake smile. “So, where are these top–notch facilities that I’ve heard so much about?”
He leans close to me. “I’m going to enjoy taming you.” He whispers.
“Not gonna happen, Beta.” I stress his title again.
“We’ll see.” He takes my arm gently and walks me past where another guy, I’m guessing the one that threatened me, lays unconscious on the ground. He walks me into the woods and points to an area away from everyone else. “You can go over there.”
He goes to turn his back to give me privacy. “How am I supposed to pee with my hands handcuffed behind my back and my feet shackled?” 1
He turns back to me and gives me an evil grin. “Very carefully.”
“Asshole” I mumble under my breath, knowing he can hear me. I find a spot near a tree that I can use to leverage myself into a squat without falling into my own pee. I really do have to go.
While I pee, I look around and there is absolutely nothing but forest. ‘Artemis, can you hear anything that could give us an idea of where we are?‘
I feel her perk up a bit, the silver keeping her from full strength. Most wolves would be completely out, so I’m thankful I have her even at minimal strength.“” I’m weak but I can’t hear anything.‘

“Damn, me either.‘
“Hurry up over there.” Eli hollers at me. I do my best to shake dry before moving- back toward him. I’m looking everywhere but there is nothing. I sigh, it was a smart place to stop, I’ll give him credit for that.
“How much longer?” I ask.
“It’ll be a while yet. Hop back in and make yourself at home.” He states when we get back to the car. I notice the unconscious guy is still on the ground. Will they just leave him here? I don’t bother to ask, hoping they have forgotten that my hood isn’t on.
“It’s getting dark. If you think you can behave, I’ll leave the hood off for now.”
“I can behave.” I state with the smile of a perfect little angel.
He snorts then tells me to get in. I do as requested and he pulls the cargo cover back over me.
I listen as someone asks him what to do with the guy on the ground. “Leave him. If he can’t follow orders, he can’t be part of the pack.” Interesting.
I reach out to my father again via mindlink. “Dad?” I wait but hear nothing. Dad, can you hear me?” Still nothing. “Dad, if you can hear me. We just stopped in some woods. They let me pee,so my scent is out here. But there was nothing else around, no power lines, no buildings, no lakes or streams that I could hear. Just woods.” I pause for a moment to see if I’ll hear anything. “I hope you can hear me so you know that I’m ok.”
I lay my head down and close my eyes, resting while I have time.
