ASHANTI'S POV I know for a fact that it's not true. Alpha Reagan is not taking care of Alina, but I cannot stop my chest from hurting so much after hearing that statement. Just the thought of him siding with Alina makeswant to faint.

"How about we feed her the food she refused to eat?" Another guard suggests from behind. My pain turns into anger as my right fist curls by side. I swing it upward with all my might, targeting the face of the man who's big hands are pulling my hair, but my blow doesn't reach his face because both my hands are caught midair by two other wardens standing by my side. I try to tear my hands out of their holds but they are just too strong.

"Did you just try to hit me?" Logan sneers as he releases my hair and connects his fist with my right cheek. I yelp in pain as my head sways to the side, my hair scattering all over my face. Another blow lands on my left cheek, sending my head in the opposite direction and I burst into tears. He grabs my hair again, tugging my head up so I can see the triumphant smile on his face. "How did that feel?" Bile crawls up from the pit of my stomach into my mouth, and I can taste its bitterness at every corner in my mouth. I suck at the walls of my mouth and on my tongue, gathering every bit of saliva I can and even though I know it's a wrong move, I open my mouth and spit my bloody saliva on his face, not failing to smirk when his smile turns into mortification.

"No, she didn't!" One of them laments and I watch, prepared, as Logan raises his hand to giveanother blow, but it doesn't reach my jaw because an angry voice cuts through the atmosphere that pauses every action going on in the cell.

"What the hell is going on here?" It's a deep masculine voice. Very familiar.

I don't need to think to know it belongs to no one but my mate, Alpha Reagan.

Logan's hand releases my hair while the other that was balled into a fist drops to his side. All four of them have terrified looks on their faces as they turn to face Alpha Reagan who looks like he's about to kill someone. His eyes meet mine and I do the only thing I can do in this situation. I burst into tears.

The next minute, the entire cell and hallway is filled with screams and pleas as the wardens are being thrown from one wall to the other. Alpha Reagan beats them mercilessly and their limp bodies are all bundled away by other guards. The two elders who have been spectators to the incident, watch in horror as Alpha Reagan rushes into the cell and stoops before me, his eyes searching every part of my body. My face is red and swollen from all the blows Logan gavea few minutes ago and my entire body hurts as though I've been run over by a truck.

"Please, getout of here." I sob. My voice is barely audible. He cubes my face in his hands. "They are going to killif you letstay here. Please, takeaway from here." I'm a crying mess and Alpha Reagan seems to be speechless as his thumb calmly caresses my cheek. His eyes look up at the elders standing in front of the cell door.

"I'm sure you must be very happy to see her in this state." His gruff voice scolds the old men who remain mute with stoic looks on their faces.

I don't understand why they are here in the first place.

The last the was here, he cwith them. Why? "Baby... I promise they'll pay for doing this to you." "I don't care about that. All I want is for you to getout of here. You know I didn't do it. Please, takeaway with you." Cracks begin to form along my face, all the way down my arms, my torso, my leg as I watch him shake his head in denial.

"I can't." A pained whisper leaves his lips. "Not yet. Not until your innocence is proven."

"What do you mean by that? Can't you see what they are doing togoiare here? They are going to killif I ?? don't get out soon."

"They won't. I'm going to severely punish those men and issue a m warning to the rest of the wardens. They won't dare to do such a thing again. I promise!" I stare at him in total disbelief.

My anger returns.

"Get away from me!" I angrily peel his Ghands off my face and shift away from him, shaking my head and sobbing even harder, He tries tom ccloser but i shrink and dodge his hold. My gaze plasters on the wall and after a long moment of painful silence, he sighs and rises to his feet. He exits the cell with my soul and I'm nothing but a skeleton by the this footsteps and that of the elders he cwith can no longer be heard. For the one millionth time, I remind myself about my determination to leave this pack the moment I get the chance to do so.
