Simon POV:


    To say my mindset had shifted was the understatement of the year. Deacon was unlike Marcus in


    almost every way. Whereas Marcus was a shortsighted, quick–tempered, and emotional Deacon and


    was calm, unattached, and saw the long game.


    He was a beast who would calcte in an instant how easy it would be to control Grayson through his


    wife. Ate was very much in mortal danger, and so was L. He would want me to do his bidding; he’d


    already sided out what little brains Marcus had. He knew I was the creator of the Silver tranquilizer. It


    wouldn’t take more than one conversation with me to figure out the only way to create something like


    that is to start out lethally and work your down.


    He wanted Grayson incapacitated quickly my injection was the smartest route. He would try and hold


    my sister over me just as Marcus was doing. The difference is I knew Deacon would follow through.


    Staying was no longer an option.


    I couldn’t keep my work here not where it would be used by a psychopath that hated wolves and


    wanted to dominate the for mary value.


    I had to take my work and get out and I had to take Ate. I see now how horribly I’d seen things,


    meeting that man and seeing the darkness in his eyes scared me. It chilled my core and I couldn’t


    shake the feeling that he wouldn’t hesitate to kill any of us in a second. He had woken me up and I was


    on the wrong side.

    “Good morning Simon,” Ate called to me from her cell.


    She knew that I was ashamed of my behavior she saw my hesitation every time we had to interact and


    she wouldn’t let me look away. How her husband won any argument that I had I’ll have to ask him.


    I couldn’t just leave overnight I had to n so unfortunately Ate still had some time to suffer. I had


    to gather supplies and if Marcus or one of his beloved little grunts saw me stockpiling food they’d tell


    their master in an instant. The one thing Marcus did inspire was loyalty from the meat–headed roided


    out morons.


    It was shocking to me he thought he could win over a woman this way. He could say all day long it was


    Ate’s beauty that captivated him but he was arrogant, he wanted the best, and in our world that


    was her.


    I should have never created this substance but my curiosity and my yearning for new information


    clouded my judgment and I didn’t ever look into the consequences. I wouldn’t have known the word


    consequence when I was in the thick of experimenting.


    I should be mortified by my hubris in my quest to discover. I was a cruel man and didn’t care about


    others when it came to knowledge.


    Here I stood weapon in hand and a walking talking corpse to show me my wrongs. The worst of this


    whole situation was that I was hiding it from my sister someone I’d die for and I trusted her good heart


    enough to know that if she found out about what I’d done she’d be distrusted with me.


    I had started taking seconds from the food hall and packing them up tightly. We didn’t have much here


    and everyone


    was on top of each other but I had enough room at our house to save food.


    I would have to find a way to get Ate out of her cell and to find the right potency of a small dose of


    the silver injection for a sleeper dart.


    The guards would need to go to sleep quickly and without rousing the others. I’d need a way to sneak


    Ate out without suspicion but I had no clue how to do that.


    I’d need a car to get us away perhaps I could ask for a taxi to meet somewhere using human


    transportation.


    Ate wouldn’t be able to phase.


    The biggest thing was I’d have to start weakening her dosage of the injections. That way her strength


    and her wolf would return to her and then in the case we were caught she’d be able to help.


    I heard what she’d done to the two soldiers before Marcus drugged her. She’d cut them into ribbons


    with ease and precision. Her alpha blood would work.


    If only I knew what to do from there somehow we’d have to find our way to her pack. Then I’d throw


    myself at the mercy of her husband and pray the goddess doesn’t take me the second heys eyes on


    me.


    I set my stuff down quickly but calmly. Calmly. Put my notebook in my bag. I only had one copy of notes


    and Marcus had never asked or cared where they were. I needed them out of site and put mine before


    Deacon realized who had the


    magic potion.


    She hadn’t been quite so punchy to everyone else they were d she’d mellowed out but it was


    different in my eyes. I


    was terrified she was up to something, with her father–inw on the prowl I didn’t me her for being


    on edge.


    Marcus may have deceived everyone else into thinking Deacon wasn’t a threat to us but she and I


    knew better when we saw the gaze of the big dog. Eyeing up the little worms seeing who’s a threat and


    who could be used in his favor.


    She knew more about him than we did and the look she gave him when he saw her the true terror that


    crossed her


    face, she hadn’t shown fear this whole time but when he entered the picture she knew.


    I should work as quickly as I could to try and move before she did anything before she was stupid and


    tried to save


    herself. She should look at other people more, see that I was changed now too, or perhaps I just feel


    guilty as I should. I shouldn’t me her if she makes an attempt and I should hope she escapes, I’ve


    been selfish.


    Then there’s my sister I should still try and leave if Anna gets out perhaps I should still go to her at her


    pack and beg for mercy. That would probably be the safest choice, her husband didn’t seem to be as


    much of a beast as his reputation suggested. If his wife loved him so dearly I couldn’t see him being an


    evil man.


    When this was done I’ll take Ashley to a new pack one where she would have a much more cheerful


    upbringing, where loyalty and respect were the currency. She could have good friends and not worry


    about the demons of our past and we


    would leave all this behind.


    That would be something if we could leave and move on and grow from this, not have an Alpha holding


    our lives in his ignorant hands. Trusting the people around us instead of fearing they’d have turn us in


    for the slightest crime.


    If I had been wiser in the ways of people I wouldn’t have chosen the side I did I would have walked


    away a long time ago and who knows how much better this would all be.


    This will end soon, I’ll right my wrongs. Ate just had to hold on a little longer and then we could go.
