THREE HOURS LATER, I was ready to try anything. Even allowing the kidnapping, killer werewolf dude join us in our escape attempt.

Doing nothing but sitting in a clear plastic cage was beginning to drive me insane.

“Beginning?” Shane muttered when I finally threw my hands up in despair and announced this.

“Hey,” I warned. “Be careful, or I’ll leave you behind when I get out of here.”

“Okay, okay.” Shane grinned at me. “You’re in the early stages of insanity. That’s all.”

Insanity. Fine. I could use that as my excuse. I turned to the werewolf, looking at him directly for the first time since I’d dismissed his suggestion of a truce. “How could you help us escape?”

He quickly quashed a pleased grin, schooling his expression into something more serious. “You said the cuffs were dampening your ability to shift?”

“Yeah,” I responded warily.

“Well...” He let his voice trail off as he stood, turned around so I could see his cuffed hands, and flexed his fingers.

When long claws popped out of his fingertips, I gasped. “Are the cuffs not stopping you from shifting?”

He glanced over his shoulder, his grin in full force. “Not at all.”

“Seriously? You can still shift?” Surprise suffused my voice. I had always assumed that all shifters used the same kind of magic—or whatever it was that allowed us to shift.

But apparently here, lamias and wolves were different.

Or maybe we were different everywhere.

“Yes, I can.” The wolf gave a shrug.

“And why haven’t you?” Shane asked suspiciously.

“Where am I going to go—even if I could escape, just me against a whole building full of snakes? Not to mention whatever snake shifters are outside.”

“Werewolves,” Coit muttered. “Bunch of A-holes.”

I tossed a glance Coit’s direction, but he wasn’t looking at me.

“Do you have a plan?” I asked, turning my attention back to the wolf.

The werewolf turned his icy blue stare on me. “I would get us all out of these cages and unlock your cuffs, and then we could get the hell out of here.”

Okay. So it wasn’t much as far as plans go. But it was more than I had.

Maybe I needed to seriously consider his suggestion.
