Chapter 12

• I tried to beg him after that, but my pleas fell on deaf ears, my tears didn’t move him. Even Vadirr that was more relaxed at the beginning started to get irritated. I was handcuffed to the door of the vehicle, my legs were tied together and my lips duct tapped when I wouldn’t stop begging. I was tied like some goods and no one dared stop the vehicle as Vadirr increased his speed. Everyone knows how loyal Vadirr is to his best friend, and I didn’t exactly expect him to like me considering I tried to end his friend’s life, but he’d felt pity for me. He’d even told Prince Draven to let me go at the start, but now when he glanced at me through the rear view mirror occasionally, I saw irritation, and maybe hatred.
• There wasn’t any need to plan another escape, so I accepted my fate. I was a fool to think I could outrun a Lycan. The minute I started to run, he must have heard my footsteps. Even before I tried to, he must have known, because he’s the most powerful Lycan on earth. He must have had a hunch or used one of his superpowers. He let me run to prove a point. And I get it. I can never escape from him. I can’t even try, because it’s useless. I told my wolf we’d take whatever punishment awaits us in good faith.
• We stopped once to fill the gas, and then I dozed off for a while. No, not a while. Many hours. Because when I woke up, we were in a private airport, and I was hanging upside down on the shoulders of a very bulky man and being shoved roughly into a private jet.
