Chapter 51 Verbal Support: Cyrus POV

• I didn’t think I’d ever see that man again. It was good to see that we’d both ended up alright. That we found our other halves and our happiness. I stood over Ciara’s crib as she tried to fight sleep and failed miserably. Her little eyes closed finally and I brushed a bit of her hair from her eyes. I walked back into Leo and I’s room and sat on the bed as he walked out of the bathroom with a curiously thoughtful look on his face. I held my hand out to him and before long I was snuggled against him while his hand caressed the skin at my waist. We sat like that for a while before he spoke,
• “How did you wind up meeting Queen, baby?”
• “That man…he has many connections with other sick fucks. When he was meeting one of them, I met Queen. He was a slave of a vampire crime lord. That crime lord was involved in many things, one of which being sex trafficking and forced labor. Queen was literally enslaved. He had to wear special bindings that limited his strength and completely negated his Vampiric abilities. While the two psychos talked, we did, too. We met on multiple occasions. It was before I got my wolf, so I wasn’t a threat in any way. Since the meetings with Queen’s captor lasted for about a week each time, I was brought along as a way for him to…pass the time. Queen was the only person I’d felt comfortable around after years of being under that man. When he started training me, I was no longer allowed to leave. It’s been years since I’d seen Queen and I guess…I sort of pushed the memories of him away. His words, though, they stayed with me.”
