‘I'll do anything for you, just tellwhat | need to do.”

‘Open your eyes.’

| didn’t realize that my eyes were closed, but as soon as she says it, | open them. I'm no longer in the forest. I'm

in a room, lying on a bed. As | look around, | see that | am attached to ssort of line that is dripping

something into my body. | immediately reach up and rip it out. I pull it to my nose. It smells like saline. | don’t

smell any poison or wolfsbane in it.

| feel weak, but I need to figure out where | am. This room isn’t the one I've been living in at the vampire coven.

This one feels softer, nicer...safer. What a weird word for a bedroom. Clean, tidy, comfortable, those are words to

describe a room. Safe is not one of them and | am not safe. | don’t know where | am, but | know that I have to

get out of here before someone findsawake.

| start to get up when | realize that | am naked. Yep, definitely not safe. Looking down at my body, | can still see

the remnants of that last night in the feeding room. The wounds are healing and don’t look like they will scar as

badly as sof the others. Maybe Alessia is getting stronger and is helpingto heal.

Before | have a chance to figure out what | want to do, | hear footsteps in the hallway. | immediately lay back

down, pulling the blankets back up and overto cover myself as much as | can. | have no intention of meeting

a stranger naked.

When he walks in, he is a giant of a man. His size and build immediately remindof my father. His hair is a

sandy blond color. It probably gets lighter when he’s in the sun. His eyes are a beautiful shade of green. It

remindsof when my mother and | would find wild sage in the woods. And his scent. Oh goddess, his scent is

of the forest. It’s the sscent that pulledout of my hellish nightmare and placedinto the forest. It's

wild and clean and familiar. | take a deep breath, wanting to smell more and that’s when | get the scent. The

scent of an alpha.

| catch the whiff of his alpha aura just before his eyes latch onto mine. | immediately grab hold of the fear that is

threatening to drownand pull it back. | know how to manage fear. I've becadept at managing my terror.

| shut it down. I pull all emotions back and wait for what is to come. | know | can handle it, no matter what it is.

He has stopped walking and is just looking at me. “You're awake.”

It’s not a question, so | don’t answer him. | continue to wait, to see what fate has

He watchesas he slowly moves toward me, as if he’s afraid to spook me. “My nis Liam. You stumbled

into my pack over a week ago. You were near death and my doctor has been taking care of you.” His eyes track

to my arm that is bleeding from where | ripped the catheter out. | swear | can hear him sigh.

“We were giving you IV fluids and sliquid nutrition as you were dehydrated and malnourished when you

arrived. You were also low on blood and your blood. platelets were low, which is probably why your blood isn’t

clotting. Here.” He goes to take my arm and | instinctively jerk it back, holding it against my body..

He growls softly at me. “I'm not a leech. Your blood is of no interest to me, except | don’t want you bleeding out

after I've expended so much energy to keep you alive.” He puts his hand out. “Giveyour arm.” It's not a

request and | don’t really have any other options.
