Are thesemine?

I glance at the other clothes caked in dust and decide that yes, these must be what Vix brought in for me.

Does Calix expect me to perform sex acts with other women? Is that why he's had Vix bring me to this particular room?

Ugh, if he thinks I'm a performing monkey, he's got another thing coming. I eye the panda onesie with a grin and pull it from the hanger, slipping it over my naked body before zipping it up.

Ilovewhoever got me this.

I yawn again, so I listen to my body and head to the giant bed, wondering how much perfume I'm going to smell whenhisscent hits me full force.

Calix.

I inhale and nestle beneath the sheets, my eyes closing almost immediately.

This place is heavenly, even if it's a prison.

Chapter Fifteen

CALIX

Billy Marshall doesn't look like Billy Marshall anymore, and I haven't laid a finger on him. Apparently, neither has any of my wolf pack. His eyes are swollen shut, and his lips are blistered and bleeding. His hair has been shaved, and he can't speak. His arms are covered in bruises and bite marks, and it's clear that he's been kicked out of his 'pack’, if he ever belonged to one.

I eye him and cross my arms, watching his breathing get shallower as time passes. He isn't long for this world, and I have zero information.

“Where did you find him?”

Cox sighs and says, “On Blair's aunt's porch.”

I raise an eyebrow, and he nods, continuing.

“We thought he was planning on attacking her, so we jumped him. But the poor fucker could barely see. We didn't need to touch him. They've cut his tongue out.”

I wince and stare at the boy before me, wondering what his story is.

“End it for him. It's no way to live,” I grunt as Cox stares at me.

“You don't want him to suffer, Alpha?”

I shake my head. “He's suffered enough.”

Cox nods, but I can see he's conflicted, so I place my hand on his shoulder and say, “Pity your enemies, Cox.”

“Yes, Alpha.”

I stride back toward the packhouse and mull everything over. Somehow, I'm sure this is all linked to what happened to my parents.

A rogue pack killed my family, yet no one can identify them. Then, my mate is attacked in the street by three boys from the local town. Now, the only surviving attacker has been mutilated to near death, so he can't tell anyone anything.

Why?

Who would do this?

“Calix.”

Oh, for fuck’s sake, not now.

“I hear you brought a girl back with you.”
