"Oh so, your wounds they show.
I know you have never felt so alone.
But hold on, head up, be strong.
Oh hold on, hold on until you hear them coming.
Here they come, oh...Take an angel by the wings.
Beg her now for anything.
Beg her now for one more day.
Take an angel by the hand.
Time to tell her everything.
Ask her for the strength to stay."~next morning~
Third person's pov
Mira opened her eyes the moment the cell's door opened making noise and lifted her head up.
The woman that was sharing the cell with her and Cassie got in with a tray in her hands and the door got locked again from a guard.
The woman was so pale and skinny with so dirty clothes and so many marks, cuts and bruises that made her heart hurt. She couldn't see her face at all because it was always bended and the quite dark cell wasn't helping her but from what she could see the woman should be around her 40s or a bit more. Her scent was also strange, a mix of wolfbane but she was still smelling like a werewolf and that was making Mira too curious and confused.
Mira turned her head and looked at Cassie who was also staring at the woman in sympathy and Cassie feeling her eyes on her turned and met her gaze nodding like she knew that Mira was feeling sympathy for that woman also.
"I can't imagine what she had lived in here..." Cassie whispered through their link.
"And for how long." Mira added shortly.
"Today you are staying locked in here, there is no work for you to do." The guard from outside shouted to the woman who turned and shook her head in understanding.
He was staring at her from the small, tall window at the door and Mira with Cassie bended their heads trying not to growl again from anger. Some seconds passed in silence until the guard finally turned and left with his footsteps echoing as he was walking out of the dungeon's corridor leaving his Alpha's victims completely alone without supervision.
"He left..." Cassie whispered and lifted her head up again sighing relieved.
"For now." The woman replied and turned to them.
"Does it hurt?" she asked some seconds later shaking her head and pointing Mira who was heavily yet tightly chained.
Mira blinked her eyes surprised and shook her head confused speechless. She was feeling something weird growing inside her seeing the woman's wary for her condition. She didn't have Moira to ask her what that could mean but she was sure that the woman that was standing shaking next to her was special. She was already feeling something pulling her to that woman and that was too rare to happen.
"Mira?" Cassie asked worried watching her being too silent.
"Oh, sorry. I am fine, it hurts a bit. Thank you for your interest." Mira said quickly and the woman took some steps to them and then stopped nervously.
"I...I brought you your food. Which one of you do I feed first?" the woman asked trembling turning from Mira to Cassie and again to Mira waiting for their answer.
