“Where is Mateo?” I ask her.
“Shower he should be down soon, where did you go?” She asks, stepping closer. I ignore her question because I am not really sure where I went.
“You seem okay,”I tell her, pulling on her shirt and tugging her closer.
“I think I just needed sleep” she says, wrapping her arms around my waist.
“Ah you’re filthy, did Maddox roll in a carcass?” She chuckles but doesn’t pull away.
“I will admit I have leaves and dirt in places that should not have leaves and dirt” I tell her before kissing her head.
“We need to talk later. I think I know who the person is working for Jacksons Pack” I tell her and she looks up at me.
“Who?” She asks.
“When I get out of the shower I will tell you” I tell her.
“Okay, go shower then” she says before she stands on her tippy toes trying to reach my lips.
Maddox pushed forward to look at her. He always found her height or lack there of amusing.
“Hi Maddox” she says before gripping my neck and tugging me down. Her lips press softly to mine before she steps back.
“Go shower, then you can tell me what you found out” she says before pouring boiling water into one of the mugs, leaving the water out of the other two.
‘Does she seem off’ Maddox asks.
‘yep, but at least she isn’t angry, I think she is in shock’
‘explain why her emotions feel so muted through the bond, I think Kora is pulling it from her’ Maddox says, making me think.
Maddox pulls on my anger so it wouldn’t be surprising if Kora was taking her grief though it did make me wonder what would happen when she no longer does.
Walking upstairs, Mateo was coming out of the bathroom as I was about to walk in.
“Kat is making coffee, did she wake up while I was gone?”
“No, only got up about half an hour ago when I did”
“I will shower then we will deal with Madeline” I tell him and he nods about to walk out when he stops.
“Have you told Kat yet?”
“Not yet”
“Rightio, I won’t mention it then” he says walking toward his room.
Looking in the mirror on my way, my appearance was worse than I thought.
I had mud everywhere and blood, sniffing my hand I nearly puke.
‘I may have had a snack’ Maddox tells me.
‘I don’t even want to know’
‘probably best you don’t B*stard stuck his antler in my side’
‘I said I didn’t want to know’ I feel him shrug and I turned the shower on, stepping under its spray and washing the gunk off.
Katya POV
I was nervous to find out who they think it is, what I wasn’t prepared for was finding out they were here this entire time.
“Madeline is in the basement, we think she may have been the one that was giving information to Jackson” Ezra tells me.
“And she is in the basement?” I ask, feeling sick to my stomach at the thought.
“Yes we wanted to wait to see what you wanted to do with her” Ezra says and I run my fingers through my hair.This was too much, way too much.
“I want to see her” I tell him and he looks at Mateo.
“You’re sure?” Ezra asks.
“Yes, if she had anything to do with killing my mother, I want to watch the life drain from her eyes” I never wanted to watch someone die before,I thought it sick when people found amusement in another’s pain, but if she did do it, I wanted to watch her squirm at the realisation she was going to die.
“Have you spoken to her?” I ask him and he shakes his head. I look at Mateo and he also shakes his head. I get up pushing my chair out.
“Then let’s find out, why are we wasting time sitting around if you aren’t even sure?”
“Alex brought her in for us, we haven’t laid eyes on her yet, Maddox was probably best not going down there, he isn’t one to ask” Mateo says looking at Ezra.
Walking past them, I followed the hall stopping near the basement door. I had never been down there before so wasn’t sure what to expect.
I follow Ezra down, the cold concrete steps made our footsteps louder, the draft down here was cold which wouldn’t make for a comfortable stay.
Reaching the bottom Ezra reaches over flicking a light on, the room illuminating under its fluorescent lights. Looking around there are two cells in the far one was Madeline, holding her hand up to shield her eyes from the bright lights.
“About Bl**dy time, let me out Ezra, why the hell did you have me put in here?” She snaps getting to her feet.
I see Mateo flick a switch on the wall the moment she grips the bars. She shrieks before being thrown against the wall behind hel and I could smell the sizzle of electricity, the smell of her burnt hands.
“What the hell Mateo?” She snaps getting to her feet again.
“You, is this over the cafe incident” she growls at me pointing her finger.
“You mean Luna?” I ask and she growls menacingly.
“You’re not my Luna” she snaps and I raise an eyebrow at her words. Ezra unlocks the cell and she takes a step back as he enters.
“Wait, I didn’t mean that Maddox,” she shrieks as he grips her hair, dragging her out of the cell. He forces her to her knees in front of me and I see she was right, Maddox did have control or at least partially, the fact he didn’t kill her I am assuming he is either trying not to or Ezra still had partial control.
He crouches next to her before grabbing her face with his hand and forcing her to look at me, his other hand wrapped around her hair.
