He chuckled but said nothing. But I didn't need him too, the sounds of him laughing could make the brightest star seem dim.
I crawled onto his lap, hugging my legs around his waist and laying my head on his shoulder. I closed my eyes and sighed in contentment.
He wrapped his big arms around me and pulled me in tight, breathing in my scent.
Being in the comfort of my mate, it only took moments before my body gave in to sleep.
I woke up to an empty bed and room. I whimpered, already missing my mate. I crawled out of bed, pulling his shirt out of the dresser and sliding it over my shoulders, it offering me a but of comfort.
I opened the door and started walking down the hallway in hopes of catching his scent. I walked downstairs to the main level, finally catching his scent and hurrying towards it.
It took me down another flight of stairs, then another, and several after that.
I was at level 20 and all there was were cells upon cells. I kept heading down, seeing someone at level 21. I walked over to them. They looked to be a male in there early thirties. I crouched in front of the cell. "E-excuse me?" I say.
The man looks up. "A-a girl?" He said, almost hungrily.
"U-um...have you seen were the alpha w-went?" I ask nervously.
"M-maybe come a little closer and I'll tell you." He answered.
"I-"
"Samantha!" I jumped and spun around, seeing Sebastian standing in front of the next staircase down.
"O-oh Sebastian h-have you seen-"
"Get away from him!" He said, grabbing my arm and pulling me away from the cell. "Samantha what are you doing here?" He hissed.
"I-I was l-looking for A-Adrian." I whimpered out.
He sighed and rubbed his temples. "You....You can't be here Samantha. " He said.
"Why, I want to see him."
He sighed. "It is not my place to tell you. Come on. Let me take you back upstairs. " He said, reaching for me.
"No!" I exclaim, taking a step back. "I can tell he's down here, and I'm going to see him." I added with determination.
"I can't let you do that." He said, biting back frustration.
"Well....well as your future Luna I order you to let me!" I say.
He clenched his jaw. He knew I had him there. He stepped to the side. "Fine but I'm going back down with you."
I nodded. "Thats perfectly fine. I have a question tho."
"Hmm?"
"Is he down there with Stacey?" I asked.
He nodded his head.
"But didn't he say he'd be down here in the morning?"
"It's 5:23 am." He answered.
"Oh."
We went down the remaining levels until we finally reached level 23.
"Alpha-" Sebastian started, but before he could get another word out Adrian came around the corner, looking ready to kill someone.
"What the fuck is she doing here." He growled.
"I'm sorry I tried to stop h-"
"And you are perfectly capable of doing so, so why the fuck didn't you."
"I-"
I cut Sebastian off. "A-Adrian it's not his fault. I wanted to come down here and see you." I said, looking down.
He sighed. "Okay, you saw me, can we talk when I come back up?" He asked, swallowing down his frustration.
"Why? Let me see whats going on."
"No, there's no reason to." He stated.
"Well I don't see I reason not to either." I replied stubbornly.
"I don't think you'd like what you saw."
"Okay, one, I've seen a lot of things. Two, I wad about ready to rip her head off myself. So I really don't think its that big of a deal."
"I- I don't want you to think of me differently either." He said, barely above a whisper.
I could tell he's not used to opening up to anyone. I stepped forward and touched his cheek, sparks immediately flying at the slight contact. "I won't. I promise."
He nodded, but hesitantly lead me farther back down the hallway. As we got closer I started to hear light whimpers and smelt blood, and...fecies?
"Ew, she smells like shit." I whisper to myself.
"We're not exactly offering her bathroom trips right now. Also this level doesn't have toilets." Sebastian said.
"Right." I say nodding.
We only went a few more yards before her cell. I looked inside, seeing it completely empty besides her and her blood.
She had cuts all over her, what looked like a stab wound, a few missing fingernails and a broken arm. "Jeez." I breathed out quietly.
"You don't look so good." I say to her, a small smirk on me face.
"You fucking whore! I hope you rot in hell!" She screamed at me.
In the corner of my eye I could see Adrian hold back from doing something even worse to her.
"Umm...wow okay. Hope all you want, you probably need some." I replied in a fake nice tone.
"Fuck you." She spit blood at me.
Adrian walked up to her and punched her across the face, knocking her out easily. He growled, "We're going back upstairs. "
I nodded and followed him up the stairs, Sebastian trailing behind us.
"How many levels are there?" I asked after a minute.
"50." Adrian responded in a monotone voice.
I wonder who's in that level. And what did that guy on level 20 do?
"Ummm what did that guy on level 20 do?" I asked Sebastian.
"He's a rapist." He answered simply. "He raped half the woman in his pack. The alpha from his pack asked if we would lock him up here."
"Oh, yea....definitely seems like that type of person now. " I shivered.
"He didn't try anything did he?!" Adrian suddenly growled.
"N-no! He didn't, he just said some things, nothing much tho. "
Adrian hurried and went up the next flight of stairs to level 20. "A-Adrian it's fine!" I say.
He just growled and walked up to the cell. The man was small in comparison to the alpha.
He jumped, looking up at Adrian. "A-alpha! W-what b-brings you h-here?!" He stuttered out.
"Did you touch my mate." He growled.
"W-what! N-no! Definitely not! I-I swear!" He whimpered.
"Adrian he really didn't touch her, he asked her to come closer to his cell but I stopped her before she could. Nothing happened." Sebastian spoke up.
"Y-yea you see I d-didn't touch h-her!" The man agreed.
"P-please don't waste your time on him. Can we please just go back upstairs?" I asked Adrian.
He looked back at me, nostrils flaring. He closed his eyes for a second, recollecting himself. "Fine." He said to me. He looked back at the man. "You are very very lucky Cryos. Don't pull any shiy like that again or you'll go to level 40 again. Maybe worse." Ge threatened.
Cryos started shaking. "N-no Alpha n-never again!" He said, fear audible in his voice.
Not wanting to ask why the lower levels were terrible I followed Adrian back up to our room.
