Bad Love An Alpha’s Regret

Another day has gone by, and I’m aware of the minutes

trickling away like sands draining rapidly through an

hourglass.

The final moments of my life are running away from me while I’m stuck in this cell, and I don’t even know when it’s all going to be over, only that Karolina said they’d moved up the

execution date.

Axel and I have talked escape plans, but I know it’s more for distraction than any real ability to be able to do anything.

Axel says he’s tried to escape several times in several different ways, so those plans go out the window right away.

Maybe there’s a chance I could fight my way out.

I have the power of three Alphas, I could probably get pretty

damned far.

But there’s any number of Enforcer wolves and regular Council members between me and freedom, and despite my

abilities, I can still be killed.
