"How long are you going to keep me here, Princess?" Enzo asked as he sat down against the wall, his knees bent in front of me, staring at me through the cold bars.

"I think you're being a little impulsive." He chuckled and I sent him a glare. "What? You don't agree?" He smirked.

"Stop talking," I hissed and turned away, folding my arms over my chest. I had no idea why I was even here. He had already given me all the answers that I needed yesterday. So what else did I need?

"What else is there to do?" He said, leaning his head against the brick wall. "And I'm starving. This isn't how you should treat your guests."

"Guests!?" I scoffed and stepped closer to the bars dividing us. "You're here as a prisoner."

He shook his head.

"I'm not a prisoner." He said confidently. "It's amusing that you really believe that I'll be here for long."

"You're staying here for as long as I —"

"No, I'm here until Cyrus comes back." He said rudely, his eyes not meeting line as he stared up at the ceiling. "It's his fault that I'm in this fucking mess."

"So why did you do it, do you just obey like a fucking dog? He says jump and you ask; 'how high?" I asked him, my eyes squinting.

He let out a short laugh, then he dropped his brown eyes, lifting his head from the wall, to meet mine.

"Cyrus is my Alpha, Nevaeh."

"And you're the Beta! You're supposed to advise him! How could you let him do --"

"Do you really think that I didn't try to reason with him?!" He raised his voice. "But he doesn't listen! It's like his wolf takes complete control and Cyrus loses himself."

I nodded.

I had seen that happen a couple of times but never thought much of it.

"He always spoke about power and dominion over the Packs. It was his mission --"

"..That's why he went over to Luminous and MoonLight." I thought aloud.

"But then his eyes would suddenly flashback to their normal blue state and he'd be a completely different person. In those short moments, he was happy, at peace even. But that never lasted long."

"We have to do something, we can't just let him lose control," I said quickly.

"I don't think its anything serious..every man fights with their wolf for self-control.." He said, his eyes staring straight at me. My wolf stirred uncomfortably and forced us to look elsewhere, breaking our gazes.

"Unlike you, I'm not going to sit back and watch him lose control."

"Who the fuck said I was sitting back? Though I may not agree with his methods, I stand by his side, ready to intervene when needed." Enzo fought back.

"That isn't enough."

"And what exactly have you been doing besides fucking him all the time and eating all the food in the Packhouse?!" He said harshly and I turned my head quickly to face him.

I opened my mouth to speak for a moment, shaking my head in shock at his words.

"Take those back," I said, my lips forming into a tight line.
