Chapter 0241

We collected Eli and Dustin and headed into the city. When we arrived, Liam took Eli to a store to get sclothes and a backpack before buying him a bus ticket.

“Where do you want to go? The next bus is heading north to Asheville,” “That works.” Eli responds.

Liam gives him an envelope with money in it. “This is enough to get you back on your feet and started in a new life. Good luck Eli.”

After he thanks Liam, Eli boards the bus, and we watch as the bus leaves the station, heading north.

I've never been in a human city. It is big and loud, lots of tall buildings and cars honking, moving in every direction. It’s very overwhelming forand | am glad that Liam is holding my hand.

He comes up behind me, wrapping his arms around me. “Definitely wow.” He says and | turn to see him looking at me. I smile, blushing at the compliment.

| can feel his nerves through the bond. He doesn't like the idea of leavingalone here, and | wouldn’t really know what to do with myself. Maybe there is something | can do to help him. So, | agree.

We collect Dustin and head down to the office level a few floors below Liam’s penthouse apartment. When we walk in, | freeze.

It's her. The hair is different, her clothes are baggy and hang on her, and she’s wearing glasses, but | would never forget those eyes. The eyes that were my lifeline for seven long years.

“Sarah.” | whisper. +15 BONOS “Mate.” Dustin whispers besideat the stime, taking a step forward.

Liam immediately turns to Dustin whispering quickly to him so Sarah can’t hear. “She’s human Dustin. Pull yourself together or you'll scare her.”

Dustin blinks looking at Liam, struggling to not run to Sarah and pull her into his

ams.

|, however, am locked on her eyes. “It’s you.” She says so quietly that if we weren't shifters, we never would have heard her. “Sarah!” | say louder and walk toward her, opening my arms.

We close the short distance between us and hug. “You're alive. | wasn’t sure after you ran. I’m so glad you got away. I’ve been so worried about you.”

| stand back, holding her at arm’s length. “You were worried about me? | was worried about you. Are you okay? Where have you been and why did you change. your hair?”

She looks over my shoulder and tenses as | feel heat at my back. “Mr. Holstin.” She says. “Angel, you know Heather?”

I turn to look at Liam. “Liam, it’s her! It’s Sarah.” | frown. “Why did you call her Heather?”

He looks fromto Sarah and back again. “Cinto my office. Let’s talk privately.”

In an instant, Sarah looks like she’s going to run. | grab her hands and hold her gaze. “I’m here.”

She looks atfor a long moment. “You're not alone.” She responds back with our words and her shoulders relax fractionally.

“You can trustand you can trust them. | promise.” She looks at Liam and Dustin, whose nervous energy is buzzing around him, then back at me. “Okay.”

We walk into Liam’s office and close the door. | sit next to Sarah while Dustin and Liam pull up chairs. Dustin is twitching in his need to touch his mate. | can see him struggling with his wolf and | watch Liam’s eyes unfocus a moment before Dustin settles. I'm sure Liam ordered him to calm down.

“What happened to you?” | ask her. “When | left you, | thought you’d be safe with the hunters.” +15 BONOS

She shakes her head. “They were monsters, just like the vampires. They took us to this place, this awful place. It was something out of a horror movie. All these different people locked up in cells, sof them were part animal. | could hear screaming and crying. They basically tookfrom one hell to another. They said. the ‘creatures’, that was their term, didn’t deserve our sympathy, that they were all just like the vampires.”

I can feel Liam’s fury through the bond. Hunters are not new in the supernatural community, but to know that they have captured supernaturals and are torturing

them is hideous. “What happened?” | asked her.

“They showed us around, wanted to recruit us to becpart of their league or guild or whatever they are.” She looks down at her hands. “I could never be so cruel.” She whispers.

Dustin reaches out to take her hand, wanting to comfort her, but she snatches it back. The hurt on his face is instant, but he quickly hides it.
