(Bella's POV)

"Time for some adult fun, my dear." I looked towards Eva and I bet my expression was worth a thousand words.

She looked so scared and I was so scared for her. Not because of what Jo had in mind for her, but because I don't think she could handle the pain.

Jo whispered something to the two guards and they nodded their heads and left.

"We'll be back for you in a little." Jo said as he winked at Eva and left.

We waited till he left and I let out a big sigh of relief.

"That was scary." I said. Eva didn't say anything and just looked at me.

"You're going to be okay, Eva. Just don't fight back okay? It's better that way trust me."

She turned a little angry and I knew I kind of messed up.

"Not fight back? How could I NOT fight back?!" She screamed.

I never liked when people yelled at me so right now when she did it made me want to cry.

"Please, don't yell at me. I- I was just trying to help." I know I was being over dramatic about the situation but I'm still sensitive.

Eva's faced told me she didn't mean to yell at me so that kind of made me feel better.

"I'm sorry Bella. I didn't mean to scare you. It's just.... my whole life has been turned upside down because of this asshole. I can't just not fight back. I have to get out of here. I need to protect my pack. Let my family know I love them even though they treated me like crap. And I need to get my Mate back from that she bitch Jasmine."

I giggled at the whole 'she bitch' thing. Mostly, because we're basically dogs.

But Eva was right, Jessica really was one.

Eva laughed with me and I was glad that I could make this little day slightly better... Even if it's just for now. But then it hit me.

"Why were they mean to you?"

Eva smiled a sad smile and began her story.

"My mother was killed when I was a child. Apparently, it was by a rogue. I really didn't remember my brothers and I were so young."

My heart broke hearing those words come from her mouth.

"So, my father took us away from the pack. My parents were the Alpha and Luna. When she died my dad kind of quit being Alpha and moved us away. So we really didn't know what we were. Up until two months ago, we were normal teenagers. My brother Nate wasn't a future Alpha and my twin brothers Danny and Alex weren't Beta and third of the pack. And me. I'm just the Alpha's sister."

It took me a minute to process everything she just said. So she comes from a long line of higher blood.

"Wow. That's amazing. What are your brothers like?"

Eva turned her body towards me and had the biggest smile on her face.

"Well Nate is the oldest. His mate is well was my bestfriend Ariana. I mean they're still together but We aren't friends anymore. Oh, and she's caring the future Alpha right now! But anyways, Nate is more of the serious one but not too serious. He's just basically the mature one in the family."

"So he's basically what an Alpha should be then huh?"

We both laughed at that and she nodded her head.

"Yea basically. Then come the twins. Danny and Alex. Danny is the smart sophisticated one. But its okay because hes the one I go to when I don't know what to do in a situation. Hes my personal advice giver and a great listener. His mate is Destiny shes also pregnant. They're perfect together. Shes funny and amazingly gorgeous but we aren't friends anymore either."

"Well, they're a fool for letting you go. You're probably the nicest and toughest girl that I have ever met. Granted, I haven't met many because I've been here my whole life, but still."

"Thanks Bella."

"No problem. So the other twin?"

"Oh yea! Alex! okay so hes the funny, laid back twin. Hes super funny and will have you bent forward holding your stomach until you feel like you're growing abs because that's how much he will make you laugh! He has the most amazing soul you could ever imagine. Hes always my go to guy when I need some cheering up to do. His mate is Athena. Again, she doesn't like me. But I don't blame any of them. I kind of deserve it I guess."

She smiled a sad smile and that made my heart drop. No one should deserve to feel the way she feels right now.

"No. What ever you did, you didn't deserve for you family to turn their backs on you. Family should always stick together no matter what."

She nodded her head at me and closed her eyes.

"I just wish I could see them one last time you know? Just to explain why I did the things I did."

I nodded my head remembering the times I wish I had my family here with me. I don't really remember any of them that well but I knew I had a brother, and two loving parents.

"And your mate? What's he like?"

She looked at me and smiled the biggest smile I had ever seen her wear.

"He's..... I don't know how to explain him really. He had a cold personality. He never really talked to me, and we never really got to know each other because he doesn't want a mate. He basically rejected me as his mate. He killed any and all rogues. He didn't like people talking to him. He allowed other she wolves to sleep with him. And I saved his life right before I came here."

She still had the biggest smile on her face as she talked about him and I was kind of confused as to why that was.

"He sounds like a real jerk." I said it kind of rudely and all she did was laugh.

"Yea he really is one. But when we were alone, or around my family it was different. It was the looks that we exchanged, the times he would protect me from any harm, how he was scared when I was attacked by rogues, or when I would trip and he would catch me making sure I didn't fall."

"Okay yea but he still sounds like a jerk."

She shook her head at me.

"That's because you don't understand him. It was because of way he protected me, made me feel, how his touch set my entire body on fire, and how just by listening to his voice soothed my wolf and made me forget my problems. You have the same exact eyes as him. It's funny.... "

She kind of stopped smiling and looked at me, like if she was studying me.

"No...." Her eyes grew so big it was starting to scare me.

"What? Eva? Whats wrong?" I wanted to know why she was looking at me the way she was.

"It can't be.....Arabella?" She said my name and it shouldn't be weird but only that it was because I never told her my whole name.

"How... How did you know that?"

"I found you... You ARE alive!" She screamed and smiled so big.

"What? Of course I'm alive... "

"No.. no not in that way! He's been looking for you.. they all have been."

"Wait... who?"

Now, she really wasn't making any sense.

"Your family."

To say I was surprised would be an understatement.

"You know.... you know where I come from?"

"Yea.. My mate Braxton.. he's your brother. And Alpha of your pack. He's been looking for you since you've disappeared. Everyone just assumed you were dead except for him. He's sent out thousands of search parties around the world looking for you. And now, I found you."

I could feel my throat tighten and I knew I was going to cry. My eyes began to sting and I could feel the tears coming.

I covered my mouth with one of my hand while the other clutch onto my stomach.

I had family out there... family that's looking for me. Even after all this time they're looking for me.

"I-I cant believe it. Every day I sat in here I w-would wonder if anyone cared that I was gone. And n-now I k-know they do."

A few tears slipped from my eyes and for once I let them. These... these were tears of joy and I happily accepted them.

"So everyone's looking for me. Even my parents?"

Her smile kind of faded and now I could only imagine the worse.

"Your mom died protecting you.. Jo actually killed her. But your dad, he's still around. He's very kind heart, and an amazingly super sweet personality. Which always made me wonder how they could be related." She let out a mall laugh, and I did too.

"I wish I got to know her before she died. At least to say thank you, you know?"

It hurt to know I would never have a mom to go to throughout life but I guess it was a good thing that she left before I could remember her because then it would be harder for me to let go."

"Yea I get what you mean." She smiled at me and then we kind of just sat there for awhile.

"So my brother's really that big of a jerk huh? That sucks. Ill probably kick his butt for you if we ever get out of here. But by the way you talk about him makes me not want to meet him."

She threw back her head and laughed a really funny laugh. Like those laughs that come from the stomach.

"He's a jerk alright. But it's just his shell. He's kind hearted, gentle and sweet once you get passed all that layer of anger and despise. But I'll tell you something... I miss him more than anything right now. How I would give up anything just to see him one last time. And maybe just maybe get one simple kiss from him."

"Wait... You guys haven't kissed?" I was kind of shocked when she shook her head.

"Nope. He was a jerk remember? I was basically rejected by Braxton. But it didn't matter to me. I just wanted what would make him happy and if that didn't involve me, than so be it."

She shrugged her shoulders and rested her forehead on her knees.

"Promise me something Bella." I looked at her and raised an eyebrow.

"If one of us gets a chance to escape we have to take it and leave the other behind of there's no time to get the other okay? That way one will go get help."

I nodded my head at her and smiled.

"Deal,"

I was about to ask what pack I was from when we heard the door open. We both coward towards our corner and in came Jo carrying his bag of tools, and his two little guards.

"Did you guys have a nice chat?"

No one spoke.

He sighed a breath of annoyance and dropped the bag and walked over to Eva's cell.

"Hello little mate. Its time to playyyyyyy." He unlocked her cell and walked in with the two guys in tow.

"Grab her."

The two guys went to grab Eva but she did what I was hoping she wasn't going to do... she fought back.

One of the guys grabbed her by her arm and twisted it behind her back.

But she threw her head back and slammed it into his face and he let go. The other went to grab her by the hair but she was quick and ducked from his arms.

She ran for the door and little hope of her escaping filled my heart with joy. At least one of us could get out of here.

But that was cut short when a three wolves came and stood guard outside of the gate. Eva was facing that direction so she didn't see Jo walk up behind her.

"Eva watch out!!!!!!" But I was too late. He hit her over the head with the end of his gun and she fell to the floor.

She was out cold.

He turned around and shot the gun at my leg.

"Mind your own business bitch!"

I screamed as I covered my wound with my hand trying to stop the bleeding.

Last time I lost a lot of blood I almost died.

The two guards picked up Eva from the floor and dragged her out of the cell and into the 'play room'.

It's been a few minutes and my wounds still bleeding.

I couldn't hear anything when they took Eva away just the sound of her screaming.

I remember those days.

The days you were punished if you messed up. The days if you even looked at a guard wrong, you'd get the beating of your life.

And sometimes you'd get punished just for being there. They could be having a bad day and they'd take it out on you. Most times it was just cause they were bored.

It hurt the first couple of years but after awhile you become immune to the pain. And I don't know if that's a good thing or not.

Most people would consider that a good thing. But I wouldn't be so sure. The fact that you're used to pain is sad and pathetic. But on the plus side it doesn't hurt anymore you kind of just take it.

So it's a bitter sweet feeling I guess you can say.

I lay in my corner hoping that this pain that she's going through doesn't last that long. I'd do anything to protect her. I don't know what it is that just makes me want to save her.

Maybe its because she's a luna. I remember she was telling Jessica that the pack deserved a better luna than Jessica.

I agree with Eva. Jessica is a heartless, and souless she wolf and I feel great pity for who ever her mate is.

But I know even though I don't have my wolf, a little piece of her is still in me.

Oh, how I miss her.

Time went on and I could still hear her screaming and then it stopped.

I didn't know if that was a good or bad thing, I just hope she's okay.

Minutes later I saw the two guards come back towards my cell and it just broke my heart even more when I saw Eva.

She was bloodied, and naked. She had markings on her back like if she's been whipped and she had open wounds everywhere.

But what scared me the most was the knife that was sticking out of her stomach. They threw he body in the cell next to the bars and I waited till the guards left.

I took of my shirt and threw it on her.

"Eva... Eva! Eva Please wake up"

My voice cracked and I knew she was dying, but I couldn't lose her.

"Please Moon Goddess.. you owe me. You gave me this crappy, lonely, painful life. If there's one thing I ask is that you save her. Don't let her die."

I looked down at Eva and prayed that something was going to happen. But nothing did.

'Dammit! You owe me! You save her or I swear I will forever hate you!"

I looked back down at her and she was barely breathing and I knew I was going to lose her. I pulled her body close to mine as much as I could through these bars.

I grabbed her hand and cried.

"Please help me save her.. I need her."

I tried one last time and nothing.

Eva was gone and there was nothing I could about it. She was the last person I had on this earth and now she was gone.

I looked at her face and It broke me. Her eyes were slightly open and they were a dull grey than what they usually were and I knew I couldn't look at them anymore.

I took my hand and swiped her eyes fully closed.

I saw a tear was sliding down her cheek and I went to wipe it away.

"I wish I was out of this place. That way I could've helped you Eva. I-I'm so so so s-sorry." I sniffled as I wiped her tear away but pulled my arm back when I touched her tear because it shocked me and before I knew it wind was circling around me.

It was freezing cold and then it stopped. I opened my eyes and something bright was hitting me.

I looked up and it was the sun. I jumped up from the floor and looked around. I was somewhere int he forest and I knew one thing.....

I was free.

So I wasted no time, and ran.

I didn't know where I was running to but I just kept running.

My leg throbbed because of the open bullet wound but I didn't care. I wasn't going to pass this opportunity up.

I ran and kept running like my life depended on it.

I didn't know how long I have been running for but I knew it was long since the sun was going down. I finally found a dirt road and followed it.

A couple of hours passed and the sun was completely down. I had to stop running because one, I was tired, and two my wound was really starting to hurt now.

I climbed up a tree and sat on the branch that was covered my its leaves so that way I could see them but they couldn't see me.

I looked at my wound I knew I had to put something around it so it wouldn't get infected.

I grabbed my under shirt and ripped a piece off with my teeth. I wrapped my wound and waited.

I was out but that doesn't mean I'm safe. I don't know if this is no mans land or if this was someone else's territory.

Either way I wasn't safe.

I was just about to fall asleep when I heard growling. I tried to calm my beating heart but I knew you could hear it from a mile away.

More growling was heard and they were just below me.

I looked down and saw that there was at least 12 wolves there.

"P-please d-dont hurt me. I'll c-come d-d-down." One of hem shifted back and he was hot. He had sweats on but no shirt.

"We can smell blood are you injured?

He sounded a little bit concerned but more skeptical than anything.

"Yes... It's my leg I was shot."

I started to come down but my foot slipped and I was falling from the tree.

I was bracing myself for the impact but it never came. I opened my eyes and hottie with a bottie caught me.

"Are you alright?" I jumped out of his arms and onto the ground but hissed when my leg touch the ground.

"I-Im fine. Please can you help me?"

He looked around and nodded at the men.

"Someone call Alpha Jackson."

A few men left and I was starting to get dizzy so I sat on the ground and held onto my leg.

"Are you okay?" He tried to come near me but I backed away from him and nodded my head. It wasn't until now that I realized that we were alone and I've been here already.
