She made it. After so many days she was sure she’d lose her mind before she

Just her luck. On day ninety-one, Williams was the lucky guard who came to spring her from Newbie Row.

She hadn’t thought she could hate him more than she had the day he gleefully handed her uniform to her before passing her off to Landers to take her to her cell. Then she found out he shot Travis and her loathing only grew.

When he grabbed her upper arm, half shoving, half dragging her to her permanent cell, she realized she had a little more room to really despise him.

“Welcome to your home sweet home,” he said when they finally reached it.

Gin balked. She’d been doing a lot of it as he carted her around the prison, almost showing her off to every inmate trapped behind their own cage. She didn’t doubt that he’d made sure to parade her in front of only male inmates, nearly all of them shifters. And while Cages were historically skewed to have more shifter inmates because of their design—coming about not too long after the passing of the Claws Clause—she knew it was on purpose.

Asshole.

Just like how it was as obvious that he didn’t bring her anywhere near where Travis was. In the wards she passed, each cell was more like she’d imagined when she first came to the Cage: tiny rooms, one inmate to a bed, with gleaming cell bars that she really hoped were made of silver for Travis’s sake.

The bars were all keyed to the guards’ fingerprints. After pressing his pointer finger against the indent near the first bar, the tiny light went from red to green before the bars slid outward.

She hesitated. “My ninety days are up. Probation’s over. I thought I would get to go see the parole board now. You know, to prove that I don’t belong here.”

That was her plan. At the very least, she hoped she could explain her situation. Travis’s too. If they understood that she only went along with the cop because she was worried for the shifter, and that neither of them had done anything really wrong, she thought she had a chance to get them to reverse her sentence now that they’d passed the “mandatory” period.

Suddenly, Williams’ smarmy, “You should probably forget that part, too,” came back to haunt her as he snorted. “Yeah. You all think that, don’t you? Now go in before I decide to transport the next inmate instead of leaving him with Hicks.”

The next inmate…

Travis.

Gin gritted her teeth, but she did what she was told.

When the cell bars clanged shut, she thought about hurling curse words at Williams’s back; without her magic, that was about all the cursing she could manage these days. But since that would probably only entice him to be a dick to Travis instead, she decided to suck in a breath, calm down, and curse his name to hell and back inside of her mind.

It turned out to be a wise decision, too.
