 "Please let me go!!" Heather's voice crooked as she hold the bars tightly.

"JUST LEMME GO!! " She cried out falling to her knees. Her efforts were futile as she had screamed for hours but got no response.  She sniffled leaning her back on the iron bars. The lump in her throat hurting her to a point where she burst out crying. But no one really listened. They definitely heard but chose to not listen.

She had been in the basement for a night now but she didn't seem to know how much time had passed. But that was none of her concern, her only concern was getting out.  the place was enveloped with darkness, but little rays of light came in the slots of windows, which was up in the corner.

Heather whimpered and and brought her hands to the bars violently, hurting her hands in the process but she cried for help. Cried for Dylan's name and  Lola's. But nobody came for her.

"I trusted you" Lola whispered , her eyes were gazing at the floor, her hands beside her, placed on the bed. Her face was contorted in disappointment. The lines visible on her head. Shawn kneeled in front of her trying to make her hold the eye contact. But she wouldn't look at him.

She couldn't, her heart was wrenching with the second her eyes would dart towards him.  

"Lola if I can make everything go back…. I would… But…"  Shawn tried to say more but she shook her head making him stop abruptly.  It was of no use anyway, she was not listening.

"Y-You out of all people, …." Lola said with a shaky voice "You know what! It's actually my fault.." Lola said, the tears falling freely.  Shawn shook his head biting his bottom lip, his hands shakily laid on her knees.

"No No…"

"If only I shouldn't have told you.. But I never thought you will go behind my back and…" Lola trailed on, her eyes glossed with tears, her fingers digging in the sheet.

"Why did you tell him…. Why? "  she asked closing her eyes heartbrokenly.

"I had to. I had no choice but to tell the truth."

Lola scoffed shaking her head.

"of course! !"

"Derek is my Alpha and he had told me to keep updating him about your every move the second he laid eyes on you two.." Shawn said, his heart thumping when Lola looked at him with unbelievably hatred.

"Is that why you even  married me? So that you could watch my step? " she spoke with shaky voice looking at him as he shook his head.  Her chest ached as she scrunched her face up in disappointment and sadness.

"No No God No!! NO.." Shawn mumbled looking at her as she averted her gaze. His hand trying to grab her hands but she watched her hand away from his, flinching back.

"No, now I get it. Why wasn't I thinking, Alpha set us up right there. He suggested we could marry.. But that wasn't suggestion. He had it all set in his mind ….". She whispered looking at him with sorrowful eyes.

"No!," Shawn shook his head  "No No… Please N-. L-look you are thinking too much. You need to calm down and not mix things up….. " Shawn was cut off by Lola.

"She is my sister." Lola mumbled sniffling looking up at the ceiling. "It's a my fault… She is suffering… All because of me…"

Lola felt stupid now, jumbling up every thought together.  She felt betrayed. She felt like everything was just set up.  But she was more focused on blaming the thing on herself since her sister was now in basement waiting  to be punished.
