Neah sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ƒindNoᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.”What do you want?” I demand as I stare at the Rogue, chained to the wall of the dungeon.It growls back at me. I had been asking it the same question for days and yet it still refused to speak.’This is a bad idea. We should have waited for Dane.’ Nyx murmurs. She didn’t like us being down here alone. Or rather she didn’t like pregnant me being down here alone.’They can’t do anything.’ I murmur back at her. Both Roan and the Rogue were locked up; it wasn’t like they could do anything.”He won’t answer you.” Roan calls out from his cell. “And shouldn’t you be protecting those precious twins instead of coming down here to annoy us?”I watch the Rogues’ eyes drop to my stomach at the word ‘twins’. His snout curls up even tighter until the whole thing is wrinkled and I can see his back teeth. Everytime he heard the word, all he seemed to do was focus on my stomach. It was like roan was trying to antagonise him.”Growl at me all you want, it’s not like you can do anything, is it?” I snap at the Rogue. “You are chained up and you have one and a half legs. I will kill you before you even lay a hand on me!” He tugs on the chains.I had made sure to repay the Rogue for what he had done to Raven, or rather Nyx did.I hear Roan chuckle behind me but for now, I ignore him. He will be dead tomorrow, finally.The Rogues growl deepens and Roan chuckles more.I spin around to look at the asshole in the cell behind me. He liked to do this. He liked to stick his nose in where it wasn’t wanted. “And you can shut up.””Are you not worried about being down here alone?” Roan asks from his cell.”You go on trial tomorrow.” I spit.”Oh sweet Neah.” His dark grey eyes lock on me.”Don’t sweet Neah me.” I snap before he has a chance to say anything else. “You don’t get to talk like that to me. Not after what you did to Jess. Not after what you planned to do to my unborn pups.”His grin grows, showing his missing teeth. “You think these chains will stop me?” He pulls on them as he gets close to the bars. “Do you think I am the only one in the world who will want those pups?”The Rogue starts to chuckle too and the confidence I had a second ago was quickly fading. I was missing something. They were both chained up, there was no way possible for them to get out.My hands instinctively go to my small bump.”What do you want?” I growl again, aiming the question at both of them. Dane shouldn’t have put them down here so close together. They could talk. They could plan. They could plot. Two very different enemies could work together.The Rogue’s beady eyes leave my stomach to find my eyes. Another deep growl comes from its throat and for a split second, I no longer felt safe.I knew he couldn’t go anywhere. I knew they couldn’t get out of his chains, but that unsettling feeling just doesn’t go away. I felt like I was right back in the line of Cassandra’s fist. Unable to figure out what was wrong. Unable to defend myself as it came at me. Shaking my head, I turn on my heel, leaving the dungeon.With my back pressed against the dungeon door, I look up, letting the warmth of the midday sun hit my skin.It lasts all of two seconds before I feel his crimson eyes on me.”Again?” He mutters. “I thought I made it clear that I didn’t want you going down there, especially not alone. And you are supposed to be resting, especially while Raven can’t check on you.””I wasn’t alone.” I protest, ignoring his comment about resting.”Nyx doesn’t count. If something happens to you, it happens to her.”He holds out a hand to me and pulls me in against his chest. Locking his arms around me tightly and whispers in my ear. “I don’t like you going down there.””I’m fine.””Really? Because I see that frown on your forehead and I feel your frustration. What did Roan say this time?”
