Chapter 51 ARCHER Auroras bodyguard and I fell deep into the darkness .


    Thending hurt like hell , but we both got up .


    I dusted myself off , talked to Dane , then looked at him .


    They want us to find a way out and meet them upstairs .


    Is Aurora all right ? Trajan asked .


    Yeah .


    Shes fine .


    Shes with the Alpha .


    Trajan just looked at me with a t stare .


    That doesnt mean anything for her well being .


    I growled , my hackles rising at the implied insult .


    But then , he was right .


    Back when Aurora had been Ann , Dane hadnt treated her well , and neither had most of us .


    How could we , when her pack had killed most of ours ? When her parents had killed Danes ? When the Council dered they had to stay married , it was like wed all been told to drink poison and like it .


    Most of the pack was not d shed returned .


    Then again , most of the pack wasnt the biggest fan of Evelyn , either .


    They saw her as stupid and shallow , and there was nothing I could do to correct them .


    If I did , we risked people seeing through us .
