Chapter 50
Abbie
Two days had passed, and Kade had left me to rot in this brothel. He came to torment me every day, so
I wasn’t surprised to see a woman walk in when the door opened. However, I was surprised to find it
was the woman that used to park outside the cabin.
Her heels click on the floorboards. Today she wore a short ck dress, and I could see the outline of
her thong; it was that tight. I look away, back at the wall where I sat in the corner. She was here to
inject me with more of the shit Kade had been using on me, or so I suspected. I will not cry. She did not
deserve my tears. I kind of wished ire woulde back. I wanted to know she was okay, and I
hadn’t seen her since the night I was brought here.
The woman crouches next to me and grips my chin, forcing me to meet her gaze. She sneers, shoving
my face away. “Kade is on his way, and you will be on your best behavior for my husband,” she says.
I gulp. Her words stung, but she could have him. I wanted nothing to do with the man, and I felt foolish
for not believing Gannon. Felt stupid that I actually thought I would have some sort of happiness.
“Seems your little friend, that bitch of a Queen of yours has been asking about you, you do anything to
jeopardize the life I have with Kade, and he won’t be the one you need to fear.I will order every pack
warrior to run through you, treat you like the home-wrecking whore you are.” she says turning her chin
up at me.
I can’t help butugh. Of course, that piece of shit’s wife was just as depraved as he was. “Must have
really sucked when you learned he had a mate.” I tell her, ring at the woman.
She ps me before gripping my hair and yanking my head back, making me grit my teeth.
“idents happen. Remember that. This is my pack. Kade is my mate. You will learn your ce,” she
says.
“My ce isn’t here. And you should mind your own business. Ivy wille for me,” I snarl at her, and
sheughs before gripping my throat.
“Why do you think Kade ising? To see you?” sheughs, clicking her tongue.
“Your friend wan’t be an issue after today. Kade is only keeping you, so he doesn’t be weak. You
do well to remember that you are nothing to him. Just a warm hole to fuck,” she says when the door
opens again.
His scent wafts to me before I see him, the bond recognizing him instantly. I now despise the reaction
he stirs. I want his blood, and I hate that he can easily influence me the way it does.
“Ah, there are my girls. Having a chat, I see,” Kade says, walking in wearing a tailored suit, and the
woman lets me go and rises to her feet.
“Abbie dear, I see you have met my wife, Cassandra. Pretty, isn’t she?” he says, sweeping her hair off
her shoulder before cupping her neck and jamming his filthy tongue down her throat. I avert my gaze,
relishing the pain that is now coursing through my chest. When he had finished his disgusting disy of
affection, he spoke with venom in his voice.
“Now, the Queen has decided she wants to video chat with you today. She found out about Cassandra.
And you love, will convince her everything is peachy, and that you are happy here,” Kade says, walking
over to me and gripping my arm. He yanks me to my feet. Yet excitement bubbles within me. Nobody
knew me better than Ivy. She knew my darkest secrets, my biggest shames. She would see through
any facade Kade tried to put up.
Kade pushes me on the bed and grips my face and I try to pull away from his grip. When he kisses me,
I am nearly tempted to bite his filthy tongue but learnedst night not to do that after he knocked me
out cold. My jaw still throbbed even this morning.
“It won’t work. Ivy will know something is wrong.” I spit at him when he stops.
“Now I had a funny feeling that you would say that, so I have a motivator for you,” he whistles, and I
hear a struggle outside and a woman’s shrill cries and that of a baby. My heart leaps in my chest, and I
get to my feet as a woman in lingerie is tossed on the floor on her knees, a baby clutched in her arms
that was barely a few months old. I red at the man who shoved her before turning my attention to
Kade.
“Now you will put on your best performance. Abbie, meet Stacey. Stacey, this Abbie,” he says, and I
swallow as he grips her hair, ripping her head back.
“Now Stacey, Abbie, over here is the one who decides if little Jacob here is going to get to live another
day,” he says. Tears stream down her face. The baby was bundled up, clutched in her arm, and tucked
to her chest. Her mascara runs down her cheeks as she looks at me pleadingly. Her bright red hair
stuck to her face as tears smudged her makeup and lines trekked into her foundation.
Kade reaches for the boy in her arms, but I speak before he grabs him as she tries to fight him off.
“I’ll do it! You touch one hair on that baby or her head and I will refuse to do anything you ask. Leave
her!” I snap at him, and he pauses his outstretched hand. He stands and clicks his tongue, letting her
hair go, and she crawls quickly over to me, holding the baby with one hand,

stopping by my feet. Kade snarls at her and goes to grab her, but I step over her, putting myself
between them.
“Seems you do have a backbone after all,” Kade says.
“It will do you no good here. You fuck this up, you watch them die,” he adds.
“You touch them, and you die,” I tell him. I was the only thing standing in the way of having Ivy get the
king here. And I knew she would cause hell in the castle for me because if our roles were reversed, I
would do the same.
Kade nods and looks at Cassandra, who smiles sweetly before tugging her handbag off her shoulder.
She pulled a smaller bag out that was clear and contained makeup. I sat on the edge of the bed,
knowing exactly what would happen next. Mrs. Daley was good at this facade, too. When she wanted
sponsors and she would cover our scars, she had plenty of times. If I can survive that bitch, I could
survive anything.
Stacey cringes away from her, and Cassandra raises her hand to hit her when Stacey identally
bumps into her. Rage courses through me, and I grip her wrist. We stand off for a few seconds.
Cassandra is clearly shocked I would grab her, especially in front of Kade, who she was expecting to
jump to her rescue, but he only chuckles.
“Now, now,dies, no fighting,” he says, sitting in the chair in the corner beside the bed.
“You don’t want to jeopardize that future you want so badly, do you?” I ask her, and she res at me.
“You are asking for death, girlie!” she spits, yanking her arm away.
“Good thing I don’t fear death. But I bet you do,” I tell her, and she res at me. I sit on the bed, and
Kade clicks his fingers impatiently at her.
I shut down, letting her y dress-up, solely focused on keeping the woman at my feet and her baby
safe from these monsters, Kade remained the entire time taunting me as she dressed me up.
If I tried to resist, which I never did, he just saw my flinching when Cassandra would poke and prod a
little too hard, as me being defiant. Even when she poked me in the eyes with a mascara brush
she’smacked me up the back of the head.
I re at her and she sneers. “Stay still!” she snapped as she finished my makeup. When she is done,
Kade does an assessment before nodding and waving her closer.
“You did good, my love,” he purrs, kissing her and I stare off at Stacey, refusing to show so much as a
sliver of pain. When they were done with their affections, which was enough to make anyone sick with
the way they sucked on each other’s faces, Kade dropped the phone in myp before gripping my
face. His fingers wrap around my throat tightly threateningly.
“You do a single thing that causes me trouble, I will not only kill Stacey’s baby, but I will drive all the
way to your Tyson in Silver Creek pack, and bring him here before tying the little brat to a damn tree
and making you watch as he burns alive,” he snarls.
I swallow not doubting he would do just that. After seeing so many atrocities in this ce, I now saw
the monster he truly was.
“Now you be a good girl, and do as I say. I may even reconsider letting my men have you for the night.
They have been looking forward to having a go at the girl whose ass is so tight, it’s all the butcher could
talk about when I visited Alpha Brock,” he sneered.
My blood ran cold at the mention of the butcher, tears prick my eyes and Stacey whimpered behind me.
Cassandraughed, and I felt the blood drain from my body at his words.
Kadeughs, a sickening cackle leaving him. “You think I didn’t know?” My face heats as shame fills
me and I fight the memories that were trying to overwhelm me.

“Oh yes, Brock has quite a lot to say about you when I asked about that stupid brat for you. And to
think I was willing to let you keep the boy until you betrayed me. He told me how Doyle wanted to keep
you. Apparently, fought him real hard before your hearing trying to obtain you.” Kade says as he lets
me go.
“I always wondered who he spoke of the few times I met him. I thought you were his mate with the wild
fantasies he had of you,” kade taunts. Cassandra snorts augh at his words.
“I wonder if he wants another go at her? Maybe we could invite him to stay.” Cassandra sneers at me.
Kade seems thoughtful for a second before his eye darken. “Shut up! No one asked for your input!”
Kade snaps at her, making her fall quiet.
“Now, you will behave and sit through the phone call. If you try to alert your little friend and you will not
only be responsible for Stacey and her baby’s death but also Tyson’s. Are we in agreement?” He asks,
as if I had any choice whatsoever. Stacey looks at me pleadingly to do as he says.
I nod and Kade picks up the phone before hitting call and handing it to me. My hands shook as it rang,
and Kade growled. Sucking in a few deep breaths, I calmed myself enough to pull myself together in
time just as she answered. It took all my willpower not to break down at the sight of her face.
“Abbie!” Ivy shrieked.
“Hey! Kade said you wanted me to call. I dropped my phone in the sink. You know I am clumsy.” I
chuckle, putting on the performance of my
35 129
damn life, knowing how many lives rely on me saying the right thing. Yet Ivy knew me so well, I knew
she would be able to read me by actions. I hoped she paid attention. I knew if she could pick up on me,
she would y along and alert someone.
Her brows furrow at my words, “Have you got makeup on?” She asked, staring at my face that looked
different. That is Kades first mistake here. Ivy knows I never wear makeup, she also knows my facial
expression better than I do.
“Yep, do you like it? Cassandra helped me,” I told her, turning my phone so she could see I wasn’t
alone. Cassandra waves to her, putting on a sweet smile, and I turn the phone back.
“How have you been?” I ask, and my eyes go to kade standing in front of me mouthing for me to go
introduce Cassandra, tapping his ring finger.
“Cassandra, that is …” Ivy asks, and T cut her off.
“Kade’s wife. They have three kids,” I tell her, smiling. Ivy falls quiet yet I could see the suspicion in her
eyes as she peers at the background behind me.
“And you’re okay with that?” She asks. I flick my hair over my shoulder to the ear that held my scar, the
same scar she shared with me when I tried to kill myself.
“Well, I can’t punish him for marrying before he found me,” I chuckled, as if it was no big deal and
Cassandra was my new bestie. She appears confused, so I change the subject, telling her random
crap, knowing Kade is watching me. Kysones up behind her and into the camera’s view.
“Hi Abbie, you look nice,” Kyson says, sending me a wave. I smile and wave, saying hello when Kade
moves to stand behind me, his hand gripping my shoulders in a warning as he squeezes them.
“My King.” Kade says, giving him a nod and they chat about pack business for a few moments, and
Kyson asks him a few questions about rogue sightings. Before telling Kade and me how they
discovered Ivy was the missing Landeena baby. I had so many questions yet had more pressing
matters than Ivy’s parentage, though I was d everything was sorted out on their end. I was happy for
her, happy she would get her happily ever after.
“Well, my King and Queen, Abbie and Cassandra are about to go shopping,” Kade eventually says
when Kyson finishes speaking. Kade wanders out of the camera’s view and I stare at Ivy.
“Well, I will try to call you again soon,” I tell her and she smiles sadly, then she purses her lips before
her eyes light up.
“I was going to ask if you wanted toe up on the weekend?” Ivy asks me. She knows! She knows
something is wrong, I thought. My heart sputtered as hope bloomed in my veins. She has to know.
“That would be awesome. I have missed you.” I tell her.
“Not this weekend, Abbie. A driver won’t be avable,” kade says behind me, where he stood by the
bed.
“It’s fine. I will send Dustin toe and get her and your wife; it can be a girl’s weekend,” Ivy tells him.
“The kids have a ser match, and it’s Abbie’s first one. She doesn’t want to miss it,” kade says, and I
nod quickly in agreement as he walks over to me before rubbing behind my ear.
“Yes. I promised the kids I would go. I forgot, maybe the one after,” I tell her, giving her a smile, yet her
focus was on my hand rubbing behind my left ear. Come on Ivy, put it together. I prayed she did and did
something quickly.
“Sounds great.” Ivy tells me. My smile waivers slightly with doubt as she smiles brightly, the sinking
feeling returning.
“Well, I will let you go. Call me tomorrow night,” Ivy tells me as Kade pops back into view of her.
“I will make sure she does,” he says, kissing my cheek in a show of affection, and it took everything in
me not to jerk away from him. I blow her some kisses.
“I love you,” I tell her. Ivy’s eyes narrow the slightest fraction.
“More than my life,” she says in reply.
“Yep. You know that,” I tell her, smiling, while my heart hammers in my chest. I reach up and rub the
spot behind my ear. Ivy watched the movement and I saw her swallow and the look of panic in her eyes
as her eyes went to mine.
“I love you. I will speak with you tomorrow,” she told me. I nodded before hanging up, praying she
understood that wasn’t me.
The moment I hang up, Kade snatches the phone from me. I waited for the verdict of whether I did
good enough in his eyes at convincing her nothing was wrong.
