NovelStartSilver's POV
It was a sleepless night, and | spent most of the day isolated in the bedroom while my brother did Goddess
knows what. My nerves were on high alert. One rogue cinto my room at spoint during the day to give
have my strength for later that evening because | would need it, but | told her | wouldn't consanything they
gave me.
Scott cto seelater in the afternoon and he had a smug look on his face.
"My spell is complete and now | just need to cast it," he told me, folding his arms across his chest as he leaned
against the doorframe. "We are going to your darling husband's pack in a couple of hours. It'll be the last time
you ever see him alive."
My heart fell deep into my stomach. | wasn't sure what to say, so | chose not to say anything for right now. I let
my eyes fall to the ground, not able to look him in the eyes. He smirked, taking my silence as a win.
"You should eat something, you'll need your strength," he told me, pushing off the doorframe.
| shook anything.

"I don't trust you," | murmured. "I won't consanything given tohere."
"You ate when you first got here," he said, folding his arms across his chest.
"Because you didn't want to hurtwhen I first got here. Now that I'm a traitor, I'm not sure what you'll do to
me."
He scoffed at my words.
"We need you alive for this plan to ctogether. | need your powers, so we aren't going to hurt you until we
need to."
I shuddered at his words, "until we need to."
My chest tightened; | couldn't lift my gaze to look at him. | refused to let him seebreak.
He smirked as he stepped through the door to leave the room.
"Suit yourself," he murmured. "I'll see you later tonight."
Without another word, he closed the door, leavingalone with my thoughts. I finally allowed the tears that I'd
been holding in to fall out of my eyes and roll down my cheeks. Elliot... please... keep yourself safe because | am
unable to keep you safe.
At spoint, | must have fallen asleep. It was either because | was growing weak, and depressed, or maybe |
was just exhausted after spending the entire night in panic mode. But | woke up when I felt my hand falling to
my side. The silver cuff was still wrapped around my wrist, but it was no longer attached to the bedpost. There
were a couple of rogues standing around me, making sure | didn't go anywhere.
| jumped at the sight of them; one of them was the rogue from last night who brought Scott to me. He had
glimmer of humor in his eyes as he grabbedand pulledout of the bed. My entire body ached from sitting
in the sposition the entire night.
Once | got to my feet, they started to pushtowards the door. None of them said anything and that made me
even more nervous.
"W...what are you doing?" | stammered. | was trying to see if | could find a clock, but there were none. Based on
the window, it was dark outside, so | knew it was probably almost tfor the takeover. My heart hammered
wildly in my chest.

When we walked around the corner, Scott was waiting at the doorway with a wide smile on his face.
"Get her in the car," he said, motioning for the car sitting out front. It wasn't there earlier, and | wondered where
it cfrom.
"Right away, Boss," one of the rogues said as they continued to pushthrough the door.
"You'll never get away with this," I said through my teeth as | passed my brother.
His smile widened.
"That's where you are wrong, Silver. Because | already got away with it," he laughed humorlessly.
| swallowed the lump that formed in my throat and went with the rogues to the car. They shovedinto the
backseat and one of them got into the driver's seat. Scott slid into the passenger's seat and two more rogues sat
on either side of me.
"The others will meet us there," Scott announced as we drove away from the rundown shack of a home. This was
the first t| had seen it from the outside. We were in the middle of a forest and based on the rancid scent, we
were in rogue territory. That wasn't surprising though; my brother was pretty much the rogue king at this point.
They all respected and trusted him. It gavea sickening feeling in the pit of my stomach.
