"Dallas!"

Katherine shouts Demos roughly grabs Dallas by the throat and slams him on the ground. Then he is kicked over on his back followed by a foot being pressed against his throat. "NO STOP!" She shouts as her eyes begin to burn with tears. "DEMOS! PLEASE!"

Xerous stood there with a smirk arms crossed over his chest as he glanced at her then at Demos. Demos turned to her with red eyes. He had a piss off look and the look of betrayal. "WHAT WERE YOU DOING WITH MY MATE?!" He said ignoring her.

"DEMOS! Punish me not him! I'm the one that broke into your office. I forced him to come along." Katherine plead as Demos just stared at her with red angry eyes.

"Katherine it will be wise if you shut. your. mouth." Demos gritted out. Xerous still had that stupid smirk on his face as he stared at her.

"What do you want us to do with him, Alpha Prime Demos?"




"Katherine!"

Her eyes opened as the only view was met with depressing color of gray. A thin blanket covered her body but did nothing to keep out the chill of the room temperature.

"Katherine, I need you to sit up and look at me." The voice said.

Katherine let out a sigh as she sat up on the make shift bed and turn to see Demos standing outside of the cell bars with a tray of food in his hands. Katherine ran a hand through her nappy head as she has not been able to tend to it for days. An annoyed release of breath left her lips as she glared at Demos. "What do you want Demos?"

Demos let out a growl. "First off watch your tone." Katherine had the urge to roll her eyes but fought against it. "I brought you food today. You haven't eaten in a while."

"Yeah, thanks to you." Katherine mumbled.

Demos let out a sigh as he sat down the tray on the floor. "Katherine, you brought this all on yourself. You should stop getting into things and just accept that you are my mate." He said calmly. Katherine just sat there in silence wanting this conversation to end. "What were you doing in my office, Katherine?" He asked for the millionth time. He has been asking her for days trying to pry the answers out of her. Although he had an idea of what she was up to.

"You know darn well what I was doing, Demos." She answered looking down at the floor then up at him. "You ruined my life." She said now looking up at him. "You and your freaking human trafficking! You...your kind did this!" She yelled standing up. "My family may be dead thanks to you." She said with a few tears in her eyes. The sound of her voice came out as if she wanted to cry.

Demos looked at her with the look of remorse as he looked down at his feet for a moment. He let out a sigh as he pressed his hand on the keypad scanning his hand print. The cell opened as he walked in.

"Katherine, I-"

"No! Don't talk to me." She said not caring of the consequences. "I have no family anymore." She whispered to herself taking a seat again.

"I am your family now, Katherine." Demos said taking a seat beside her. "You don't need anyone else but me." Demos said grabbing her chin forcing her to look at him.

"The hell you are." Katherine mumbled glaring at him.

Demos let out a growl. "Watch your tone."

Katherine moved her head from his hand. "Where's Dallas?"

"Like I said for the past few days in... questioning and no you are not going to see him. You are staying here until the Winter Moon Festival tomorrow night." He declared. Katherine let out a frustrated sigh crossing her arms. Then it came out like a flood. Tears ran down her face as her shoulders shook as she cried.
