Letting Go–1
Aurora’s POV
1 dragged my feet back toward my cell, every step a reminder of my Hew reality. Prison was literal hell on earth. The fucking irony wasn’t lost on me. I’d made my career as a lawyer, and a damn good one at that. I was supposed to be the one defending innocents and sending criminals to this place, not becoming an inmate myself
I hadn’t slept properly since they threw me in here two weeks ago. Lom the moment I stepped into this cell, I became every prisoner’s enemy. For whatever reason, they fucking hated me and made no effort to hide it.
Deep down, I knew Sebastian was behind this. I shouldn’t have crossed him. I shouldn’t have underestimated how much he cared for Thea. The Sebastian 1 knew–my Sebastian–would never hurt me. He would never do anything that caused me pain.
I guess the boy I fell in love with all those years ago was gone. In his place stood a ruthless Alpha who wouldn’t hesitate to punish me for daring to hurt Thea.
I sighed, finally reaching my cell. I was exhausted to my bones. Since entering this place, I hadn’t had a proper shower or a decent meal.
Every mealtime, my cellmates either knocked the food from my hands, spit in it, or just took it away. For two weeks, I’d barely eaten. enough to stay alive.
As for showers? Most days they’d shove me out of the stall before I could even get under the water. The whole experience was terrifying and dehumanizing. I just wanted to go home, but I wasn’t even sure that was possible anymore.
“Look,” Grace, one of the most vicious inmates, said, “our little princess bitch is back.”
Whoever her mother was, naming her Grace was a fucking mistake. There was nothing graceful or proper about her. She didn’t bring beauty or gentleness to those around her–just brutality and pain.
I didn’t dare say this to her face. The last time I tried defending myself, I got a punch that left me with a black eye. I really didn’t want a repeat performance. The she–wolf was built like a male, so you can imagine how much it hurt when she hit me.
