“Let me out! You fucking psycho! Why are you doing this?” Then, because I’m desperate and trying everything I can. “My father’s going to kill you for this! My alpha will have your ass!”

That doesn’t get me any further than anything else I’ve screamed in the hours since Wilde unceremoniously dropped me on a bed, then yanked the pillowcase off my head after I spent who knows how long begging to be allowed to see.

It was sheer torture, being tied up and blind all through the ride in the back of his car. I hope I never experience terror like that again as long as I live. He wouldn’t say a word, not even when I cried. And I did cry once, toward the end, when despair almost won out. I can look back all I want and tell myself I cried in hopes of getting through to him, but that’s not the truth. I was scared out of my mind, more afraid than I’d ever been. Considering the way my life went before this, that’s saying something. When you spend years being the pack punching bag, more than a little bit of fear is involved.

The thing about Wilde is how he seems to enjoy this. It’s not just a matter of reminding me of my place, keeping me down, the way it was when everybody called me a freak. He loves hearing me beg like he literally gets a thrill from it. He loves knowing I’m confused, helpless, and at his mercy. Even Dexter never put a hood over my head and laughed while I begged for information.

And now here I am. I don’t know where here is, but I know it’s a cage. A literal cage. A nice cage, sure—a big, firm bed with silk sheets sits against one long wall, and I know from having spent the past few hours on it that it’s very comfortable—but I can’t take my eyes off the silver bars embedded in the brick walls on all four sides of the room.

Actual silver. I can feel its power without even touching them, radiating warmth. Who in their right mind has a room like this? The door is like the door to a prison cell—heavy, metal, solid. There’s not even a knob on this side, no handle, no way to open it. The single window is also barred.

That’s not the worst part.

No, the worst part is what’s also embedded in the walls. For instance, the chains above the headboard are driven into the brick, with leather cuffs at the ends. They dangle a foot over the pillows, promising… what? Pleasure? Torture?

There are similar chains on the opposite wall, directly across from the foot of the bed. A small metal cage sits in one corner. Please, don’t let him try to lock me up in there. There’s also a cabinet on the wall, locked, and I shudder to think what’s inside.

What is this, a fucking sex dungeon? Is that what this is all about?
