–MAYA

The next day when I awake, the first thing that I notice is that I’m still in bed. Has he gotten rid of the chains completely? Does he have more guards stationed outside? Why else would he feel it okay to leave me free inside of this room? Is he not worried that I would try and make a run for it again?

Now I knew exactly where to go to leave this place. I knew much more than I did the first time I was brought here. I would expect him to be extra careful from now on, but his actions are truly puzzling.

He’s taken plenty of blood from me yesterday, and I expected to feel weak today, but surprisingly my body felt more alive than ever. Could it be because he was my mate? Was it different when your mate drank from you? 

Letting Kane drink blood from me was only the beginning; i’ll have to do much more to capture his heart. I wasn’t even sure what yesterday did in my favor. Were there any changes in his actions towards me at all?

I know that having him take blood from me yesterday affected me. It was unlike anything I’d ever experienced before. I realized that I wanted to do it; I wanted him to have that part of me; I wanted to be that close to him.

While I did hate Kane for everything he did to me after he drugged me and took me from my family, those feelings of wanting him were still there.

But maybe it wasn’t such a bad thing. It made it easier to offer myself to him. I knew in the end I’d have to leave; in the end, I would never be able to forgive him. Leaving him now may not affect him, but it will when I made him fall for me. I wouldn’t give up until I did. He had to pay for hurting me. He had to pay for letting me watch him sleep with another woman amongst so many other things.

Ican still see them together in my head. I hated it, and I just wanted to get it out of my mind. If there’s ever a chance to wipe my memory, I will choose to forget about that one day.

The door opens just then, and a maid walks in with food in her hands.

“Alpha Kane asked me to bring this for you. He will not be here until later tonight. He’s asked me to look after you and make sure that you’re okay while he’s gone.” She informs me.

To look after me? To make sure I’m okay? That sounds nothing like him. “Does he treat you good?” I ask her.

The woman looks taken aback by my question. I just needed to get one person to be on my side, just one person to go back and let my family know where to find me. She looked kinder than the previous maids, and I had to wonder if Kane purposefully chose her to tend to me today.

Her face turns pale, “I’m not supposed to have a conversation with you unless he tells me to.” She says in an apologetic tone.
