My Surprise Mate

"Try to get some rest, princess.No telling what is in store for us," Blaze whispered.

I had no idea how he was able to stay so calm.I was a complete mess, or at least I felt like it.I curled up on the cold floor next to his feet and closed my eyes.

"Blaze?" I whispered, "Yeah."

"Do you think we will be able to make it until Dad finds us?"

"Yes, We will be fine, but Kyra, I plan on getting you out before then.Just be strong for me."

His voice held nothing but confidence when he spoke, faith I wish I could say I had.

This whole ordeal has shown me that I wouldn’t be a good alpha.

As soon as I get home, if I get home, the first thing I am going to do is make sure dad knows that Zane needs to take his place.

Zane might be my little brother, but he acts more like my big brother.

He is mature and responsible, caring, and a great leader.

Zane is so much like dad, and I know he would have been able to stay calm and confident if he were in this situation.

He would know what to do.

I woke to the cell door slamming against the wall and Blaze growling lowly.

"Rise and shine, princess!"

Devin shouted as he banged the bars on the door he had just flung open.

This time, I stood up more easily, "Hmm, looks like the wolfsbane is wearing off; that’s good for you.

You should be able to shift then.

Unfortunately, it isn’t good for your little boyfriend here.

We don’t want him getting his strength back, now do we?"

Devin smirked as he stalked toward us.I positioned myself in front of Blaze, who was still chained like a wild animal.

"Kyra, move.I’ll be fine."

I ignored Blaze’s pleading voice behind me.I won't let them fight him unless it is a fair fight.

"If you want me to work for you when I shift, then I suggest you stop trying to hurt Blaze." I laughed as he looked at Trey, "I beg to differ.
