Chapter thirteen
Alex POV
I woke up and found myself tied to a chair. I closed my eyes and opened it again thinking this is just a dream but surprisingly, I was still seated on a chair which I am tied to.
I look around my surrounding and noticed that I am kept in a blank room. The room is all white from the ground to the walls and the ceilings. There is nothing in the room except the chair I am tied to and a small window.
“Where are the hell am I?.” I thought to myself as I try to recall what happened last before I lost conscious. I remember Adonis leaving me all alone at the cliff so that he can go and join the fight. Then I wonder on my own around and I felt someone knock me unconscious.
Talking about Adonis, I am sure he must be worried about me by now that is of course if he cares about me. I wonder if I was still in Adonis pack.
“ But what if my dad men where the ones that captured me?.” I thought as panic begins to raise within me.
“I am so dead!.”
If indeed it is my father’s men that captured me, then I know that it is the end of me.
I heard the door knock twist open and I held my breath as someone comes in.
Two men wearing an identical dark blue khaki pants and a black t-shirt with dark blue cap on their head. Both of them where huge and big in status even bigger than Adonis. They both have wide chest and well muscled arms. They look like bouncers or thugs.
I let out a little breath when saw them. They might scream “danger”, but at least I know that they are not my father’s men.
The men match into the room and move closer until they stopped tight in front of me.
“What is your name kid?”. One of the men ask me.
I kept quiet and didn’t reply him. Growing up, I have watch how my father’s men interrogate their captives. And one thing that I realize from that is that it’s better to stay silent than to talk when you are being interrogated because you might end up saying to much and getting yourself into deeper trouble.
“Did you heard me kid? I ask from your name!”. The man screamed again but I kept quiet.
“Where are you from?.” He asked me but I still refused to talk.
I can see the veins on the side of his head and jaw popping out. I know that he is one minute away from snapping at me. The other man who is yet to say a word let out a smear.
“Do you think this is funny? Why don’t you do the asking then!.” The first man said and moved backward leaving the second man to take charge of the interrogation.
The second man bend down in my front and look directly into my eyes. Other may found him scary but not me. I was born and brought up in the mist of heartless hunters.
“Listen Kid, we don’t want to hurt you. And so for your good, cooperate with us! Now what is your name and what where you doing in our pack’s territory?.” The second man ask me.
I refuse to answer him or give a sign to show that I am listening to him.
“Are you mute or deaf?.” The man spat but I didn’t blink an eye.
“It’s is useless to carry on if he doesn’t want to talk. We should just throw him into the dungeon”. The first man suggested.
“And what about Alpha Wick? What would we tell him?”. The second man asked.
By hearing the name Alpha Wick, I knew that I am not in Adonis Pack anymore. Good thing that I didn’t say anything or else I would have gotten myself in deeper trouble.
“I am sure Alpha Wick care less about this. I mean he is just a weak mute human boy. What harm can he cost?.” The first man said making me to cringe at his words.
“Okay boy since you refuse to talk, we are taken you to the dungeon until further notice!.” The second man said and untie the ropes around.
Immediately the rope lose up from my body, i being to scratch the part of my body that was covered with the ropes before. But unfortunately, I could do that for to long because the man grab me my the shoulders and lead me out of the room.
The men lead we out of a room and into a hallway. It looks as if we are in the prison. As we pass my the hallway, I saw prison cell by both side of the hallway.
The deeper we walk into the hallway, the more creepy and unkept the place look. We pass the hallway until we reach the stairs that leads to the dungeon.
I nearly threw up when we reach the bottom of the stairs. The whole place smells and look like shit. It’s though as if it had not been clean for months or years.
There is bad odor everywhere. I held my breath as the men continue to lead me down the hallway of the dungeon.
We soon stopped in front of a door. One of the men open the door and they threw me into the cell.
“Enjoy your stay pretty boy!”. They said and laugh before they locked the door and left.
