My frown deepens. “Well, when we get out of here, you won’t have to worry about it anymore,” I say with finality, and Kole gives me an appeasing smile.

“Whatever you say,Lisichka.”

I know they probably think I’m a little cuckoo for thinking I’m getting out of here, but as soon as they meet Declan, they’ll understand.

“Kole?” I ask, suddenly remembering how he was on his way into the abandoned wing when I was coming out the other day. “The placethey run their tests…is it behind a door that’s hidden by a bookcase in the abandoned wing?”

His brows raise, and he tilts his head. “Yes. Why?”

I frown, my heart sinking. If that’s where he’s taken, it’s unlikely that's where the omegas are. “I just…I thought maybe that’s where they were keepin’ my sister. I haven' t had a chance to tell you yet, but…she’s the reason I’m here.”

His expression softens. “Oh, Little Fox, what happened?”

I manage to make it through recounting coming home one day to find Mabel gone, and how I killed Daddy. How it took me two years to track her down, but when I did, she had already been accused of killing her alphas and sent here with no trial. How the next three years were spent building my kill-list and carrying it out. I don’t mention anything about Declan just yet, just because that’s a whole other can of worms I don’t want to get into at the moment.

When Kole had told me his story yesterday, it briefly crossed my mind that maybe Mabel was one of the omegas he rescued from being sent here, but if he took them to a center, she would have reached out to me.

His brows furrow. “Well…it is still possible that she’s being held there. Upon entering the door, there are two more doors, also with keypads. There’s always a doctor to let me into the door on the left. I’ve never been inside the one on the right.”

“I don’t suppose you know which staff members work inside that right-hand door, do you?” I ask sweetly, fluttering my lashes.

“I am afraid I do not,Lisichka.” Kole shakes his head. “But we can always find a way to uncover this information, yes?”

Nodding, I give my alpha a quick kiss. Regardless of whether or not he had the answers I need, I’m still closer to finding Mabel than I wasbefore. Maybe I can torture the information I need out of Banesworth before I kill him.

“Darlin’, would you be a doll and grab a few bins of beads?” I ask, stacking our trays off to the side of the table. Hayden gives me a little salute and goes to the jewelry-making area of the room, bringing back two tubs of beads. One is full of multi-colored transparent beads, cut to look like crystals, and the other is filled with white ones stamped with black letters so words can be spelled out.

Kole and Hayden look on as I tie a small knot at the end of the thread I grabbed earlier and slide three pink crystal beads on, then I lick the end of the thread, aiming it towards the little hole the venom would come out through the canine. It takes a few tries, but I finally get it, and grin triumphantly.

Then I pick my letters that will go on the necklace, making sure I send the right message. I finish it off with the other canine and three more matching crystals. When I’m done, the necklace looks like something an elementary-schooler might make during arts and crafts, but I’ll wear it proudly. Kole’s fingers skim the back of my neck as he ties on the necklace, making a shiver run through me.

My hand is holding my hair up so it’s not in his way, and he takes the opportunity to skim his lips over my exposed neck.

“Oh,” I gasp, my head falling back on his chest. Then, there’s another pair of lips on the hollow of my throat.Bothof them?

Did I somehow manifest this by joking about being spit-roasted by them earlier?

“Jo,” Hayden’s voice is breathless, then he looks up at me with his hazel eyes. “Do you want us?”

Kole lets out a growl of approval behind me as one hand cups my throat and the other splays across my stomach, his lips feathering along my neck.

Here? Now? Fuck yes.

“Can we lock the door?” I ask, my breath hitching when Kole’s teeth nip at my ear, and slick gushes out of me. “I don’t want anyone seein’ you two.”

“On it,” Hayden pulls back, and then I hear him dragging one of the cabinets behind us, covering the door. “Nobody’s gonna get through that.”

“Good boy,” I breathe, and gasp when Kole’s hand moves from my stomach to cup my aching pussy. I can feel the way Hayden reacts to my words through the newly formed bond, and hereallylikes when I say that.

“Is that how it is?” Kole asks, curiosity lining his voice as he starts to rub me outside my clothes. The touch sends bolts of warmth through my body, and I suppress the urge to grind against his hand.

“Iswhat how it is?” Hayden asks, coming around to my front again.

“She calls you, ‘good boy’?” There’s no judgement in his voice, and I grin.

“Mmmm, Hayden is the best boy, aren’t you Darlin’? Always so good for me.”

“Fuck,” Hayden groans. “Yes, always. Can I touch you baby? Can I help make you feel good?”
