Chapter 44 : My Greatest Time of Need

“Oh, I’m sure, I have the right witch,” he said. He leaned in and grabbed my hair. I leaned away but I couldn’t swat him away or anything because my wrists and ankles were still tied. “I’d know this head of hair anywhere.”

“Then why do you think I was being held hostage?” I asked.

“Well, you see, I was reclaiming something that rightfully belonged to me. Something that had a very untimely disappearance,” he said. He dropped my hair and took a few steps back.

My jaw dropped as I realized he was talking about me. He thought I was his property!?

“I don’t belong to anyone! I’m a rogue!” I snapped.

“Hmm… that’s not how I remember it. I made a very large purchase from Saboreef. I paid top dollar for you as well,” he explained.

I gasped and leaned away from him as much as I could in the confined chair. My mind was working quickly as I put the pieces together.

“When Saboreef offered a last minute exchange… well, I wasn’t too happy about that, seeing as I’d agreed to something much better than what I was given,” he explained.

“Y-you’re Alpha Chandler… of Norwind…” I gasped again.

Alpha Chandler chuckled and nodded. “I am indeed. You are a smart girl, aren’t you?” He grinned through the darkness, seemingly in a good mood.

“I stand by what I said, I don’t belong to anyone,” I muttered.

I tested the ropes again and sighed. There was no point in trying to escape. I already knew that. Hopefully, I could keep him going until Soren came to get me.

There was no doubt in my mind that he would. Especially since he’d need me for the artifact, once he found all the pieces. I wasn’t going to give into Alpha Chandler but I’d be less resistant if it kept me alive longer.

He’d already revealed that he was after me for a specific reason. It wasn’t just about finding a younger, prettier companion. He was buying women to cover his tracks but it was really me he was after. Otherwise, a last minute exchange wouldn’t bother him so much.

At least I knew he wouldn’t kill me yet. I was safe from death but it could still be a while before Soren could come to get me. I didn’t want to give Chandler an excuse to be uncourteous with me.

I took a few deep breaths and calmed myself down. The goal was just to keep him talking and if I argued with everything he said, he’d clam up and leave me here alone, eventually. Once I had what I needed, I could form a better plan for escaping.

And waiting for Soren.

Sure, he’d show up eventually, but I needed to think of something in the meantime, in case I had to act before Soren made it to me.

“Alpha Chandler, I think you’ve made a mistake,” I said, becoming more friendly and pleasant. “I’m just a rogue. I don’t belong to Saboreef. I’ve been on my own my entire life. That’s why I was with a band of rogues.”

It wasn’t a lie, not exactly. I had never felt like I belonged in Saboreef. Now that I knew the truth about who I was and my family, I could confidently say I never belonged with Saboreef.

“Whatever deal you had with Saboreef, you should be talking to them, not me. I’m not one of them,” I insisted as pleasantly as possible.

Chandler shook his head.

“Nice try, young lady. However, that’s not going to work for me,” he said.

“It works for me,” I countered.

Chandler chuckled again and nodded appreciatively at me.

“Now, to make both of our lives easier, hand over what you found in Miltern,” he said firmly.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I muttered, looking away from him.

“Don’t play dumb with me, girl! Hand it over!” he thrust his hand out, palm up.

I stared at his open palm and then looked down at my tied hands.

“Do you expect me to hand it over with tied wrists? Where do you think I’m hiding it, in my shoe?”

For some reason, I’d decided to leave my backpack in the Jeep. I hadn’t wanted any of Soren’s men going through it at the camp. At least the spellbook was safe in Payne’s Jeep and the map was safe with Soren.

Chandler growled and lifted his lips, showing me his teeth.

“Now, you’re trying my patience,” he hissed.

I smiled sweetly at him. “Well, if you tell me exactly what you’re looking for, maybe I can try to think through everything I’ve seen and tell you if I have what you’re looking for.”
