The Rejected Female Wolf - Chapter 123: Chapter 123

"Who are you?"
"I can't really say anything right now. Just know that I'm on your side." The honest look in his eyes allows me to relax a little. I nod my head slightly and he gives me a brief smile.
"Is the food poisoned? The food that people have been bringing me?" I need to know if my suspicions were correct.
"It usually is. Zack has separate food prepared for you that has been drugged. This is some of the fresh food that I was able to get from the kitchen. If anyone else offers you food, don't take it." I nod and slowly take the plate of food from him that I hadn't noticed before. I slowly pick up a piece of bread and rip little pieces off before shoving some in my mouth. My stomach rumbles and I'm reminded how hungry I actually am. I continue to eat the food slowly trying to make sure I don't upset my stomach even more.
"Why can't I feel my wolf?"
"I'm not really sure. I think Patrick has some special plant or something that can block your connection with your wolf. I'm not really sure what it is or how it works." I put the piece of bread I had in my hands back onto the plate. There's a plant that can stop you from feeling your wolf? How does Patrick know about this? I feel my stomach churn and my heart beat increase. If I can't use my wolf, how am I going to be able to escape or fight back? Things just got a whole lot more complicated.
"What am I supposed to do?" My voice is barely above a whisper, and I'm sure it reflected how scared I feel. I don't know what it is, but I can't help but trust this guy.
"You'll find help in an unlikely person..... Keep your eyes open...."
Maybe he's the person that's supposed to help us. I mean he is an unlikely option since he's here with Patrick and Zack. At this point, I need an ally, and he's been the nicest person to me, so I'm going to have to trust him at least a little bit.
"For right now, we just need to wait. I don't really have enough information to help you escape from here."
"If I am able to escape, what will happen to you?" Before he can answer my question, we hear the sound of the door being unlocked and then opened.
"Ah, I see you've gotten the slut to eat." Patrick has a slight smirk on his face as he strolls into the room. The mystery man's face goes from being kind to being completely stony. All of his emotions are hidden and he looks scary. I gulp before going back to eating my food slowly.
"So what did you have to do to get her to eat?"
"I threatened to kill her parents right in front of her." The lies come out of his mouth smoothly and I almost sigh in relief. I need to have a nickname for him since I don't know his actual name. I quickly scan his face before coming up with something simple. Brown eyes. His eyes hold so many emotions and it's actually quite fascinating.
"Why didn't I think of that?" No one answers Patrick's rhetorical question and he just shrugs it off.
"Did you need me, Alpha?"
"Yes, I have some important business that I need you to take care of for me." Both men exit the room and I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding. Patrick seriously gives me the creeps. It's hard to believe that he's related to Ryder.
Ryder.
My sweet, funny, loving mate. I miss him so much. I miss everyone else too, but I miss him the most. I know that I have to try and get out of here for his sake. I'm going to have to get my strength up before I try to do anything.
Hopefully brown eyes is really on my side.
"It's time to get up!" I don't have time to react before I feel myself being pulled up by my hair. My eyes shoot open and tears form in them from the pain. I see Zacks smirking face and I bite my lip so a whimper doesn't escape.
"Aren't you happy to see me? That's no way to treat your mate! Give me a proper greeting!" Zack has a mocking smile on his face and I have to look away so I don't try to reach out and strangle him. I need to be patient. Zack starts dragging me along the floor while whistling. What is wrong with him?
"Where are we going?" Zack looks shocked by my question before he shakes his head slightly.
"That's not the greeting I want!" I'm slightly confused by what he means until he starts moving his face closer to mine. His eyes are dark and evil and I can feel my vision becoming blurry because of my tears.
Oh no. Please no.
I start struggling, but he just yanks on my hair causing my head to snap back. I scream out in pain at the feeling. It feels like my head was just ripped off my body. The smirk on Zack's face widens and I cringe away from him. I can't really move anymore and tears pour out of my eyes at the pain. My neck hasn't started healing yet and I honestly think I might die.
