Cailyn lay awake that night, trying to analyze her situation to find a solution. If she couldn’t seek out another Alpha, she was stuck with him, at least until the birth of the child. Unless she could somehow make it back to the Omega Compound. If Drocco took her back to the Eastern Lands, she may be able to use the Talent and return to the Compound. But then what? Would the Mothers help her?

She remembered their faces around the table—dejected, forlorn, regretful, but all in agreement. Go back to your Alpha, Cailyn.

No, they wouldn’t. They told Amara they wouldn’t help her get away from Malloron, so they certainly wouldn’t help her now. As far as they were concerned she was where she was supposed to be, regardless of the actual circumstances. They were convinced this was where she belonged and that she could make it work. What had Mother Azia said? You just need to find a way to tame him for yourself. You have more power than you think. How could she do that? It was impossible with such a monster. Besides, she didn’t want to tame him. She didn’t want him at all.

“Go to sleep, Cailyn.”

She drew in a sharp breath. He seemed to always know when she was awake. She turned her head over her shoulder. “I can’t sleep.”

“You’re not trying.”

“You cannot control my sleep,” she snapped.

“I can control everything about you,” he shot back. His hand appeared around her neck, applying that pressure he knew settled her.

As she went limp, she felt something underneath his hand, like a cord around her neck. Her hand flew to his, clawing at it to get underneath.

“Be still,” he ordered.

“Something is around my neck,” she insisted.

He softened his grip and moved his hand and she felt her neck for the cord, but nothing was there. She sat up, carefully running her hand around her whole neck, but the skin was smooth.

“Can you feel anything?” Drocco asked.

“No,” she muttered, confused. “I was sure I could feel…”

“You wear a charm chain.”

She turned to look at him. “A what?”

“A charm chain,” he repeated, his eyes hooded from where he lay watching her on the bed. “It has been made especially for you.”

“What is it?” She tried to stop the panic entering her voice, but failed.

“It prevents you from using the Talent.”

She stared at him. She had never heard of anything like that before, but of course, he had found a way to prevent her using it before, and since she had attacked him with it, it wasn’t surprising he would make it a high priority to keep her from using it.

“As long as you wear it, you cannot use the Talent, unless I permit it,” Drocco added.

Cailyn’s fingers lingered on her neck, still seeking it out. “But I can’t feel anything.”

“Only I can remove it, Cailyn.”

Her hand dropped to the bed, her thoughts rolling. If she couldn’t even touch the chain there was no way she could get it off. And if she couldn’t use the Talent, no amount of planning would assist her escaping her situation.
