Chapter 110 Late

    RONAN

    The second that elevator swallowed Seraphina, my wolf snapped loose inside me. What the fuck just happened? When I had agreed to n B, I never agreed to her being btaken /blike that.

    My wolf roared violently and furious in my mind as I sprinted my boots barely hitting the floor as I vaulted over the railing. Asher and Finn were already converging from opposite ends bof /bthe brothel, both wearing the same storm–eyed confusion.

    We breached /bthe bnk /bbwall /bwhere the elevator bhad /bdisappeared. There was nothing but smooth marble and silence.

    “Fuck!” I gritted my teeth, mming my fists binto /bthe bseam /bwhere the elevator had closed. My bws /bbhalf/b–formed, fighting to force the metal open, but it was no use. Instead it shed a red light as if another tried to rip it open and it would set off an rm

    “He’s gone.” Finn rasped, mming his palm against the wall, “Seth! Seth, do you hear me?” he yelled into themunicator. but there was only static, “Fuck! It’s useless,” he growled, ripping bit /boff from his ear.

    bThe /bbsignal /bhad cut the moment she descended.

    Communication might not work underground.” Asher said tly, breath tight, “That elevator, it didn’t go up. It went down.”

    Finn bfrowned/b, “That bmeant/bb…/b”

    All of bus /bstared at each other for a long moment.

    “Underground. “I realized as I nced down at my feet feeling something for the slightest moment.

    This wasn’t just a brothelb. /b

    It bwas /bmore like a fortress.

    A fortress of flesh, secrets, band /bgoddamn horror buried beneath our feet.

    “That’s where they’re keeping Grace,” Asher said, his voice low but certain, “That’s why we could not find her anywhere up here. bNow/b, Seth’s in bthere /btoo.”

    My jaw clenched as I looked bacross /bbthe /bhall, “How bdare /bthat

    IT owner…

    Ryker stood across in the main hall, unmoving, facing a tall man in a blood–red suit, clearly the brothel bowner’s /bright–hand dog but his eyes were flickering bin /bbour /bdirection as he observed everything. Our eyes met for a couple of moments as the message bpassed /bbetween us.

    I exchanged looks with Asher band /bFinn as we all retreated into the bdarkness/b.

    Back in the hall the owner’s right bhand /bman bhad /bbeen doing bhis /bbmaster’s /bbwork /bbvery /bwell.

    “Pleasee with me. Alpha,” bthe /bright hand bman /bwas smiling, courteous, leading Ryker out of the tall, “Your she bwolves /bawait, Alpha” the man urged, bbowing /bwith bmock /bpoliteness, “You can select anyone you like.”

    Hyker bsilently /bfollowed him to the guest room. As soon as he entered, the man it to send the bgirls /binto the room. The dour shut behind bhum /band Ryker lifted his gaze to meet mine. He already knew I was in the room.

    “How dare you sell him?! I growded, bstepping /bcloser to him.

    “It was you people who started n B. he growled back stepping forward.

    Before the bgunient /bcould take a turn for the worst, Aster slipped into the room through the window, “We have to enter the underground brothel, he looked at the two of us with a frown and growled. You btwo /bneed to fucking forget about your

    hatered for each other right now. We bhave /bto not bonly /bsave Grace but Seth Darven now as well!”

    I noticed something in his hand and asked. “What is that?”

    “I stole the building’s blueprints,” he walked closer to us. “A map to the entire brothel!”

    Finished

    Before we could even speak, the door burst open again band /bFinn entered, dragging the bleeding, unconscious rightb–/bhand. man by the hairb. /b

    “And this, he muttered, bthrowing /bhim to the groundb, /b“is the key.b” /b

    He pulled a thin stic chip from the man’s pocket, holding up the thumbprint scanner. “We use his print to override the elevator lock.”

    I looked between the two of bthem/b, Asher with the map, Finn with the ess key.

    Good.

    We were bin/bb. /b

    Within minutes, we returned to the panel. The print scanner lit green. The elevator doors slid open with a soft ding, like some mockery of innocence.

    As we stepped in, the silence was suffocating. It was clearly an elevator used by the owner and his closest people.

    Asher unfolded the massive map once again in his hands. Over 120 rooms, twisted like abyrinth. No logical pattern. Some werebeled for private shows, bothers /bfor training, others ubeled with just numbers. We scanned the map quickly. Marked the most likely wings, locked rooms, reinforced ones, locations away from the main flow of traffic. There were wolves guarding the area.

    “Grace could be in any of these,” Finn whispered, his eyes going to the area in the map where he selected to look in and doubled. “And now Seth too.”

    “It looks like we arete,” Ryker murmured, his eyes going to the locations that he debuted and chose to bgo/b.

    b“/bWhy are wete?! Grace is beautiful and Alpha blood. Everything that this Alley desires. They bwon’t /bkill her. She will be alive. Finn frowned.

    “When did I bsay /bshe would be dead?” Ryker lifted his gaze and looked at me then Asher band /bFinn, “Of course she will be alive but judging by the other girls in the brothel, she might bhave /bbe the prey of some lustful bAlpha /bby now. bShe /bbhas /bbeen here for over sixteen hours now. Better to bmove /bbefore something worseb, /blike long term bharm /bto her body or something,” he stated the fact braw /band unfiltered.

    A dead silence fell in the elevator.

    The_Seth.” bFinn /bspoke under his breath but I heard him clearly.

    Asher’s eyes snapped to him, bwhen /bthe elevator opened bFinn /bband /bAsher bstormed /bout first
