Alpha Damon (Sienna) novel Chapter 343

Giovanni:

I’d been here so long, I’d stopped counting the hours.

Because I knew that it’s been more than days.

Though I did not know how many, I knew that they were enjoying this. Each and every one of them saw it as their own victory. And though I did not want to admit it, I knew that it was my loss.

The chains bit into my wrists. The damp stone beneath me ached in my bones. The only sound was my own ragged breathing, and the faint dripping of water somewhere in the dark.

They thought they’d broken me.

No.

Not yet.

Not me.

I was still Giovanni. And I would find a way.

I was going to get out of this place. I was going to manage to leave. I just needed to find the right way to do it.

I always found a way.

And I was not going to allow this setback to change my ways or my methods. I was not going to allow anyone to ruin my motive or to think that they would defeat me.

I shifted, testing the cuffs again, ignoring the sharp pain in my shoulder where her bullet had torn through me. The fact that they had played me like a fool was one that I could not just easily ignore. And the fact that Sienna of all people, was the one to shoot that bullet. Now this was a form of defeat that I couldn’t accept, but I was going to make her pay, one way or the other.

The taste of copper still lingered on my tongue from where I’d bitten through my cheek hours ago. But I couldn’t care less that blood was a reminder of me being alive. It was the reminder that I was not dead, that they could not easily defeat me. The door creaked open.

And for the first time since they’d locked me in here, I felt a chill.

Because it wasn’t Damon. Or Sienna. Or even one of the guards. It wasn’t those who they have sent to torment me, to break my teeth, my nose or to bruise my eyes. My body had healed through most of the wounds and that only made them angrier, perfect. It only showed that I was still strong.
