Chapter 151
Read Taming Darkness By Jessica Hall Book 3 Chapter 26 – “No, you don’t understand, Ma’am. She still
has powers. There were snakes and they-”
“Stop being foolish, you are hallucinating fromck of sleep, Clint.” she presses her fingers against her
temple. “Why did I even bother leaving you in charge? You really can’t do anything right around here.”
“No, I-I swear,” Clint pleads.
My mother lets me go, and I drop my head forward, trying not to smile at how petrified he sounds. It truly
was sweet music to my ears, and I hoped my neighbor was enjoying it.
“Get the spinal fluid from her and drop it off with Samson. If you can manage that without any more
mishaps, I want you to go home and get some sleep, Clint. You have been awake for far too long, and it
is making you unhinged. I need those that can do their job, not men I have to babysit. If I have to have
this kind of discussion with you again, I will see you torn apart and fed to our captives, do I make myself
clear?” she snapped and then before letting him answer, she stomped out of the cell, mming the door
shut behind her for good measure.
Clint whimpered after she left, his head jerked from side to side as he searched for my pets. His hand
shook as he grabbed the syringe again. He crept his way over to me and timidly pressed my shoulder.
I pretended to still bepletely out of it, only offering him a twitch in response. The confident, smirking
man from before was long gone. He nudged me over until I flopped onto my stomach and let out a little
groan. He poked me with one finger before sighing in relief.
“Clint, she’s right. You do need to get some rest. Clearly there are no snakes in here, she’s powerless. I
must have been nodding off during her session.” he spoke to himself in third person, he shook his head
and readied his needle again. His fingers traced down my spine, finding the spot he was going to stab
me.
It took everything in me to force my body to rx and let him take the sample. Every bit of my focus to
not let my body resist or jerk as the needle slipped into me. I gritted my teeth, thankful his attention was
diverted while my eyes watered.
It took far longer than I thought it should, and the pain had been intense, but finally it was over. The man
left, still muttering to himself about my snakes.
He left me on the cold metal gurney before walking off and closing my cage. I flopped back over, ignoring
the pain, as I stared up at the ceiling. How was I going to rescue my fellow Harmony-Fae? I wasn’t about
to leave them behind, I wouldn’t have been able to live with myself if I survived, and they did not. After
all, wasn’t it my mother that had thrown them in here?
Besides, I had no idea what she had done to these poor people over all these years. Just thinking about
that or what she was nning to do to them in the future made my stomach clench and swirl.

There were easily hundreds, no if I’m being honest with myself, probably thousands of lives locked away
in these little cages. My mates would find me, but with the increased danger, all of this could put them
into greater danger than they already faced. How would I pull this off without losing any of them?
The bubble of my thoughts popped as I heard heavy footsteps approaching my cell, and I looked up.
Porter stood in front of my cell, Lycus’ no good of a father. Did hee here to watch my misery and
gloat about his sess? Or just toe and stare at me like I was some imprisoned bird?
No matter how hard I tried toe up with at least one thing he could be proud of, nothing but filth
crossed my mind. Someone with a face like that couldn’t be the good guy, someone with the past he had
couldn’t have any redeeming qualities, I had witnessed his atrocities through Lycus’s memories and all
had scarred me. For a child to witness what he did happen to his mother, then be punished for it
afterward, was purely disgusting.
All of my assumptions were swiftly proven to be correct from the first line that left his mouth. Thank G*d,
Lycus wasn’t his. Lycus must have gotten his looks from his mother, this man was hideous inside and
out, so he kinda dodged that misfortune of being Porter’s son.
“So, you’re the little b*tch that ba**ard Lycus fought so hard to find and protect, huh?” he turned his head
to the side and spat on the ground. It hadn’t bothered me before with Clint, and even her crazed men,
but theck of covering my gown provided, made me feel dirty as this man visibly checked me out.
“I’ll admit, you’ve got a pretty face, and I’m sure with those full pouty lips of yours there’s a use or two for
you, not that the bas*ard deserves to have anyone as a mate, let alone a f**k toy.” He shook his head as
if to emphasize the sick statement he’d just made. He chuckled, his eyes ming, “Much less to have
you as their keeper.”
Sick f***k. Still, I couldn’t hold back. The bubblingughter burst out of me, and the shocked, almost
scandalized look he threw at me was almostical. If only he knew the truth, he’d never smirk like that
again.
“The man you’re calling a bas*ard will tear you limb from limb if youe near me. Lycus is more of a
man than you ever wished to be. More than you could be in your wildest dreams and fantasies.” I
hissed with every bit of hatred and disgust I could muster.
