Chapter 62
“Alpha Crestfield, it’s a pleasure to see you again. Chancellor Williams has informed me of your
purpose for today’s visit. Your room has been set up for your use. Please allow me to accompany you
to the interrogation chambers.”
I nodded silently. She led me through the hallways I grew accustomed to seeing. Having frequent visits
here for pack affairs, social dinners with his family and occasional visits with Meredith, I learned the
pathways of the mansion by heart. Walking at the pace the head maid, Opal, was leading, we walked
down the secret passage ways of the mansion. I remembered the first time I set foot in this place, I had
serious Dracula vibes coming from here.
Like
any horror movie, the interrogation chambers were located at the lowest levels. Much like the one I had
in Greyhound territory. We walked down the dim, cobblestone stairs only lit up by torches. hanging at
the ceiling. The walls were moist, water dripping down the ceilings and onto the floor. Small puddles of
water were everywhere. The first few cells we walked by were empty. It took us at good few feet down
the chamber room to reach the isolation area.
The place the rogues were being kept at.

“They’re strapped in silver chains on the chairs. They haven’t been eating anything the prison. guards
have given them, so they’re a little malnourished. Chancellor Williams bids you good luck”
her eyes met mine for a brief moment. I could see the mischief hidden in her gaze,
“-as well as a good time.”
And then, without another word, she turns on her heel and walks past me. Back to the direction we
came from, the sound of her heels clicking against the stone getting further and further away was all I
heard.
Grasping the handles of the duffle bag tightly in my hand, I breathed in. My wolf growled out in
amusement, claws extending and canines protruding past her lips. Her eyes sought after the thick,
metal door in front of us. She could smell them.
The thick scent of the rogues.
Fio and Val.
I was already beginning to feel my self control slip away. Occasional snarls leaving past my lips.
unintentionally with my eyes flickering to her black gaze. Exhaling, I walked toward the door, placed my
palm around the metal kn ob and pulled.
A smile stretched across my face at the sight that greeted me.
“Well, isn’t this just delightful?”
I hummed to myself, ignoring the mu ff led screams and growls of hatred being directed toward me.
Walking around Fio, who was strapped into a metal chair with her wrists and ankles bound with silver, I
looked on to curly head.
Or should I say, Val.
Chancellor Williams truly did leave them to me. They weren’t touched. From what I can see the only
damage done was their refusal to eat. They looked terrible. They looked a little skinny, eyes sunk in
with bags under them. They also probably weren’t sleeping. I doubt they could with those gags in their
mouths.
Still humming a soft tune, I walked over to the metal table Chancellor Williams so gracefully left for me.
It was empty of course, he knew I liked to use my own things. Dropping the duffle bag on the table, I
unzipped it and began taking everything out slowly. I saw the way Fio and Val looked at me in both
curiosity and fear.
I guess they didn’t recognize me yet.
“You know, this isn’t how I envisioned we’d all meet again.”
I say, putting down the two flasks of wolfsbane on the counter. I rummaged deeper into the bag and let
out a small ‘a-ha!’ when I found the melted silver I specifically ordered for them. Lifting my eyes to the

“I thought I’d have you at my territory.”
I sighed, lifting up the silver claws attached onto a glove. Usually, it was just metal, but I had Noah coat
them in silver for special use. I didn’t miss the way Fio’s eyes widened.
Seems like my plan’s already working.
Of course, these toys of mine weren’t going to be used today. It was all about me ntal pain for now.
Having them scared out of their wits before anything truly began was the first stage. Unlike the other
rogues I dealt with, I wanted to take my time. To truly break them from inside-out. Starting with their
bodies would’ve been way too merciful.
“I have a lot more toys there. Some are a secret only rogues like you find out about. That’s why no one
knows about them, the only one’s who find out what they are end up dead.”
I smiled at Val, who narrowed his eyes at me like a hawk. Taking out a silver choker that tightens when
resistance is indicated after being activated, I spun it around my finger. A mocking grin full blown over
my face.
“And they call me heartless.”

I couldn’t help but taunt them with the same words I heard them say. Fio flinched, slowly realizing who I
was from my words. Her eyes grew frantic, disbelief and fear basking in her marble eyes.
