LittleNovelGof Hearts Alpha's Dangerous Love 154 Chapter 154 I looked around the room I was in, instantly relieved to find I was alone, but that relief was short-lived as I realized my left wrist was handcuffed to what felt like a metal bedrail. I imagined ssort of hospital bed, but nothing else about the room itself screamed hospital. Not the lack of lights, the sounds, or the smells, The room was so dark I couldn't make out whether it was day or night. Hadn't it been morning when they took me? How long have I been out? My head continued to throb, making it difficult to think. I wasn't sure what they had knockedout with, but it left a bitter taste in the back of my throat and my mouth was uncomfortably dry. Wishing for a toothbrush and smouthwash caused a hysterical giggle to erupt from me. I knew I had bigger issues than a severe case of morning breath.
I paused. Think, Elise,I demanded of myself. Calling my wolf close to the surface, I channeled my wolf hearing and listened. I couldn't make out any sounds. It was eerily quiet.
I jiggled the handcuffs and had a momentary feeling of nostalgia. In a warped way they comforted me. It hadn't been that long ago that my rambunctious youngest brother, Chase, had gone through an obsession with law enforcement. He carried a real, cop-issued pair of handcuffs everywhere and frequently used them on his siblings. Sadly, it wasn't the first tI had awoken to find myself locked to a bed. I knew from experience that attempting to change into my wolf form while in handcuffs, was a very bad idea.

I could almost guarantee to always find a hair tie and a few bobby pins in there. I felt around, thankful to find I was still wearing jeans, and relief washed overas my fingers closed around the cool metal pin.
I quickly pulled it out, using my free hand and teeth to straighten the pin. It tookno tat all to pop the lock on the handcuffs. When your brother goes through a handcuff phase like we had to endure with Chase, you learned quickly how to break out of them.
"Thank you, Chase, "I whispered into the darkness.
Taking a moment to take inventory of myself, I patted my body down. My clothes seemed to all be in place. I didn't feel like that had been an issue anyway and the reality of that was a huge weight ❝fted that I didn't realize I was carrying. I wiggled my toes next and found my shoes missing. That w okay. Sure, I loved those shoes, but if I could just get outside, I could change and run, and wouldn't 15:17 Billionaire Alpha's 99 Deadly Games 73.2% Chapter 154 be able to take them withanyway.
I jumped out of the bed and carefully felt into the darkness around me. I shrieked and jumped back when my hands hit the wall. My heart was pounding so hard it was escalating my headache and causing a slight roar in my ears. I took a deep, cleansing breath, held it for a moment, and let it out, trying to calm myself and just breathe.
Reaching out for the wall I carefully and slowly followed it around the room until I hit something soft. Grabbing hold of the fabric and pulling it back, I winced and shut my eyes at the bright light of day. Still daytime. Maybe I hadn't been out so long after all.
I peeled back the blackout curtains, throwing light across the room. When my eyes finally adjusted, I saw a small room. Only the one window and a door adjacent to it. It was entirely empty except for the bed. Wood-paneled walls and a wooden floor should have given it a more homey feeling than the vibes I was getting from it. It remindedmore of a prison cell.
Turning back to the window, I found it locked, but unlocking it was not helping my cause. On closer inspection I saw large, thick nails hammered in at an angle from the outside, halting any thoughts of opening that window.

I went to the door and leaned my ear against it; still I heard ng movements on the other side. I jiggled the handle.
Locked. Fear began to set in stronger than it had since I first woke. I was locked in this small room and running out of ideas.
I went back to examining the window again. I tried with all my strength to lift it, wanting to snap the nails that heldcaptive. Whoever had broughthere clearly meant to keep me. I looked to the
top of the window and wondered.
The windows looked old and om wooden. I grabbed on to the slat across the top half of the window and gave a jerk down. Sure enough, the window budged and slowly lowered. Whoever my captors were, perhaps they weren't quite as smart as I thought. They had secured the lower window pane, but left the top unattended, and on a double
pane window the top half slid easily down to rest on the nails on the nails used ton secure the Power the lower half of the window.
