Don't forget to check out my new start of a trilogy Bloodlust.

"Sam, you have to get Bre out of here." I said.

A chill ran down my spine when I heard Rider's name. I didn't want him to see Bre and I didn't want him to see Jake either. I didn't want to drag them both into this. I didn't need Jake to go crazy seeing Rider here. He would make a scene and things would turn out worse.

"What? I'm not letting her go." Sam said, frowning. "You're all still traitors to this pack."

"They didn't do anything!" I growled. "I already told you they didn't have part in this."

"I'm not letting her go."

"I know, at least move them somewhere else. Rider can't know they're here. I deserve everything I get but they've done nothing wrong. Please, please, just move them to a different cell."

"You're all traitors." Sam repeated.

"I told you what happened already. I didn't want to do it. Sam, she was going to kill me and I was going to let her do it. She didn't want to kill me just like I didn't want to kill her. Rider was there when I was backing out and he ordered me to kill her. He knew who she was and he wanted her dead. I was forced to do his dirty work."

"I can't trust you, Sage." Sam looked torn.

"Please, just do this for me. Just this once and that's it." I said.

I was desperate. I didn't want to bring down anyone more than I already had. They didn't deserve any of it.

"Sage..."

"I'm begging you." I said.

The scent hit me before the group rounded the corner. Bre was surrounded by four guards and they kept pushing her around. She kept snapping her canines at them and she continued to give them a dirty look. Sam noticed them and he looked at Bre for a long moment.

"Justin, the Beta of Imperial, is her mate." I said quietly but Sam could hear me. "Justin said something to Bre about Rider and she ran away because he was trying to kill her. She didn't do anything wrong."

Bre was pushed into her cell and the guards locked it with a key. They all nodded at Sam and started walking away.

"Wait." Sam said to them. "Take her to the cells on wing B and inform the others to throw the other traitor there as well. This one doesn't deserve the company of her companions."

I knew Sam was trying to get the guards to move Bre to a different cell but his words still stung. They cut deep but I knew he was right. The guards nodded and one of them walked back to unlock the cell. Bre backed away and shook her head.

"I'm not going anywhere." Bre said.

"Bre, just do what they say."

"No, I'm not leaving you."

Bre was struggling against them but they managed to get her out. She tried to fight them off and she even went as far as wanting to shift. I watched wide eyes as one of them hit her in the back of the head and Bre fell to the ground.

"You didn't have to hurt her!" I snapped.

The guard ignored me as they picked her up and carried her away. I realized that I wasn't going to see Jake anymore. As soon as they brought him back he was going to a different cell and I wouldn't get to say goodbye to him.

"Rider will be here in thirty minutes." Sam said.

"You can't let them back here until Rider leaves." I said.
