Your new roommate.

As the creature approached, I braced myself for whatever fate awaited me.

It's bloody fangs and intimidating growls signalled danger, but surprisingly, it hesitated when it lifted me up. Pleading for release, it eventually dropped me to the ground and hurried away, leaving me.

I hoped it dealt with the two guards as I attempted to get up but failed.

'I can take over; we would feel better.' my wolf suggested, but I was angry with her.

She had abandoned me during times of pain, yes she was a special wolf could silverbane never affected her. Since my sister's death, she had been dormant, waking sporadically. The mother witch warned that another heartache might silence her permanently.

Despite her being a weak omega, she was the sweetest to me and I couldn't wish for another wolf.

'Save your energy; we might need it in prison.' I said.

'We can't go to prison like that. We have to look strong.' Lia advised.

'I know, Lia, but you're..' I paused as the guards returned.

'They are back.' I warned.

'I swear if they try anything, I will make them pay.’

Lia threatened, I knew she would as she had special powers which I never encouraged.

I pretended to be unconscious as they approached, and they refrained from any nonsense.

"Hold the other hand." one guard instructed, dragging me to the car my legs scraped against the grass and shrubs.

They showed no mercy, and as they tossed me inside. Closing the door, they started driving and cooked a story about my delayed healing.

****

The car came to a halt, signalling our arrival at the prison. The guards exited, and two officers took over, assisting me out of the vehicle. I overheard them discussing Aidens’ prior notification of my arrival and listened in disbelief as they recounted the fabricated tale about injecting silverbane to suppress my transitioning as I was dangerous, along with the false claim of me attempting to seduce the guards by tearing my shirt.

Inside the prison, they measured me, recording every detail. As I overheard them adding an accusation of attempting to seduce guards for escape to my file, I couldn't stay silent.

"I didn't do it; they are lying. Look at my body—bruises and scratches everywhere. I was acused, abused and almost raped. Please believe me." I pleaded.

Initially, the officers seemed to listen, but as I finished, they burst into laughter, dismissing my desperate plea.

"Young lady, who do you take us for?" one of the officers said, dismissive and cold.

The other added, "We're trained for criminals like you. Just pray for that poor girl's quick recovery."

Tears streamed down my face as they callously handed me an orange prison jumpsuit with "22" embroidered on the back.

"Take 22 to Bianca's cell. I would like for her to welcome her." the officer instructed, and the prison guards who forcibly led me away. I pleaded.

"Please, I didn't do it... please!" The officers remained indifferent as we walked down a hallway between cells. Prisoners reached out, screaming and expressing a disturbing desire for me, not out of affection but to claim a piece of me.

Closing my eyes in fear, I couldn't even communicate with Lia, who had once again fallen asleep. Unstable as she was, I had grown accustomed to her intermittent presence. The guard remarked with a smirk.

"If these people make you scared, then you ain't prepared for Bianca." The other guard, smiling, added a chilling warning.

“I advise you to sleep with one eye open."

Thrown into the cell, I landed on my butt as the door locked behind me.

"Your new roommate." the guard declared before walking away.

The room had four small beds, and I noticed three girls already present. One, with tattoos covering her arms, seemed to be the infamous Bianca. Another, with white hair and a dangerous air, played with a knife. The third, stunningly beautiful, had transformed her prison uniform into an attractive outfit.

"Hello?" the white-haired girl called out, shaking me from my thoughts.

"Hi." I replied shyly.

"Welcome home," she greeted, though not in a friendly tone. The beautiful one introduced herself as Bianca, claiming to be the queen, with the others identified as number 5 and 7.

Still on the ground with the uniform in my hands, Bianca circled me before yanking my hair.

"I love her hair, come cut it off now!" she instructed.

Panicking, I screamed for the guards, but they ignored me, claiming not to care about what happened in the cell.

Realizing their indifference, I negotiated.

"Please, if you're going to cut my hair, just cut it short, please."

I cherished my hair, it was black and thick, I couldn't bear to lose it all. Surprisingly, she agreed.

"I can work with that, mess it up girls." I watched pieces of my hair fall to the ground.

"Good, now stay out of my business, and you'll be fine. Also, we don't support nudes here."

Bianca stated as she watched my hair being cut. Exhausted, I went to a small bed while she and her friends discussed an escape plan.

'They are assholes. Why would they cut our hair like that?' Lia remarked.

'But we don't want trouble from them. I still could not believe or understand why my best friend would betray me like this. I saved her; I even begged Aiden to accept her into his pack.' I complained.

'Don't worry, they have worse coming for them.'

'I think they are having an affair.' I said to Lia, who didn't respond.

'I wish you could tell me when you go.' I cried in my heart, avoiding drawing attention.

Bianca stared at me, her ears twitching, and then the bell rang.

Most prisoners prepared to go out, including Bianca, number 5, and 7. As the prison guards opened our cells, I refused to go as I was in so much pain. Bianca unexpectedly came to my rescue, telling the guard to bring back two plates for dinner.

Alone with Bianca in the cell, Bianca sat beside my bed. Wary, I moved backward.

"I know I am going to regret this." she said, pulling up her jumpsuit, exposing her arm. She bit her wrist and offered it to me.

"Drink now!!."

With fear, I drank the blood, feeling my body magically heal. Bruises, scratches, and rib pain disappeared.

"Wow!" I exclaimed, feeling refreshed and energetic.

Bianca, revealing herself as a vampire, said she overheard my conversation with Lia, expressing that she knew I was innocent.

"Lia is not just a regular wolf; she's special. You need to arouse her powers to take full control. Trust me; you'll be the strongest creature." she explained.

Desiring power for revenge, I asked how to arouse Lia.

"Very simple. I will guard you, but you have to be very careful. We will do it tomorrow. She won't sleep on you again; she's very weak because you don't know how to deal with her. Don't worry; tomorrow, I will assist you." she assured before unexpectedly landing a punch in my abdomen, leaving me wincing in pain and wondering what was happening.
