Ryker groaned. Awareness cleaved the void of unconsciousness. His muscles tensed, eyes snapping open to stark and utter blackness.

“Kali.” He breathed her name.

Licks of fog veiled his memory. One instinct drove everything in him—get to Kali. What the hell had happened? A constant chemical force blew in his face directly up his nostrils. He reached up to yank at the device covering his nose. His fists slammed into something hard and the crunch of his bones cleared the mist in his mind.

What the hell?

He blinked and shook his head, clearing the remaining webs of drowsiness. His brain clicked into gear enough to realize what was on his head… an oxygen mask? But why? Had he been in some kind of accident? Was that why he had an uncontrollable need to get to his mate—to see if she was unharmed? It might explain why the tang of his blood hung heavy around him.

Something was wrong. Off. Darkness saturated the air, and his body felt like someone had shoved it into a sardine can. He lifted his left arm and fire skated across the side of his neck and shoulder. He growled and gritted his teeth together.

Had some asshole taken a two by two slab of wood and shoved individual burning splinters under his skin? Reaching up to his shoulder, his fingers searched the fringes of a large nasty weeping gash. “Mother fucking son of a…”

He yanked his hand back and his elbow hit something solid, restricting his movements. Damn, that hurt. That kind of injury would leave a mark and take time to heal. Time he didn’t have. The drive to save Kali burned a fire under his belly and fueled an urgency he couldn’t explain. All he knew was that he had to save her.

Stealing a breath, he reached, using his uninjured arm, his fingers fanning across the edge of cold, hard metal. Trailing along the framework, clarity shot an image of a story Kali had told him and he knew exactly where he was.

A coffin.

He was locked in a coffin with a damn oxygen mask on, and he had no idea how much of the gas he had left. Like an animated flip-book, each scene hit him. Kali, a prize. Jefferson suiting up to win Kali. He’d declared Kali was his. And hearing Kali scream and Jefferson tearing into his flesh.

Damn it all to hell. He’d gone and fucked up. Badly. He was selfish and stupid and his damn wolf couldn’t fight claiming her publicly in a stadium full of renegade shifters that endorsed what his father had set up. God, what had his father done with Kali? Was she right in that moment being held down? Being forced…

No! He couldn’t let his thoughts go there. If he opened up that can of worms, darkness would eat him alive and there would be no hope in getting them out of this mess. He had to hold onto reason. His father would be pissed. There was a reason he wasn’t dead.
