The sounds of monitors beeping rouse me from my sleep, but the sterile scent of a hospital is what makes my eyes shoot open. I have only ever been in a hospital once and that was to see my mother before she died, but I will never forget the smell.

Even on my worst days when Mikhail would punish me with a silver whip, he would never take me to a hospital to heal up. This can only mean one thing…I’m not where I’m supposed to be.

I sit up way too quickly and my head spins; my hand quickly flies to a throbbing head, but I don’t dare cry out. Showing something hurts you is the first sign of weakness and after everything I’ve been through, I am anything but weak.

The question remains; where the hell am I?

I remember running from Mikhail’s men, bleeding and bruised, but from what I can tell, I am mostly healed now. I ran into an alley and looked behind me, only to run straight into a brick wall.

No, that’s wrong; I ran into someone, a man with red Alpha eyes. He pushed me into an open door and saved my life. He didn’t need to help me, he could have just allowed those men to take me, but he chose to help me. Not only that, the man had a familiar face, someone I had seen before… who is he?

The more I think about it, the more fear creeps into my heart. I have no idea where I am, no idea if I am yet again being held prisoner. There might not be chains on me right now, but a closed door can be seen as a prison cell.

I swing my legs over the bed and get to my feet, only for a sharp pain to shoot up my leg and the left side of my ribcage. A low whimper escapes my lips, but I don’t scream; instead, I suck in a breath and try to walk a few steps.

freedom stops when the door opens and I freeze up, only to see a woman walk inside. She smiles at me and offers me a look of pity, one I’ve seen
