Chapter 0022
Shaking my head, I hope that I’m not blushing too much. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Let me go.”
Just as I pull my arm back, he lets go of me, making me stumble back. After landing on my butt ungently, I glare up at him, getting a mocking grin in response.
“You have to be careful if you are this clumsy, little mate,” he sneers, making me stare at him agape.
“Oh, you are such an asshole. I’ll talk with Cayden about having you locked up even longer.

He laughs as I get back up, freeing my clothes from the dirt. “I can’t wait for you to do this. Tell him how you came down here to see me.”

“I just felt pity, but that won’t happen…” Looking back at him, as I see him. clasping the silver bars, leaning on them as if they were made out of normal steel.
“Don’t be too surprised, princess. It takes more than just a bit of silver to harm me.” I wrinkle up my nose, trying to act as if this wasn’t absolutely alarming.
Just what are these guys?
‘Abominable freaks!‘ Cassy hisses, but before I can shut her up with a retort of mine, an awful emotion swaps through me.
Lifting my gaze to Fynn, I see him looking at me with a deadly expression. My breath gets stuck in my throat as he growls, “What did you just say?”
“Nothing.” I breathe out wide–eyed.
Was he just able to hear Cassy?
As panic rises in me, I have no better idea than to turn around and start running out again.
“Missy!” I hear him shout after me.
And just as I have reached the guardian who is looking at me confused, his growl makes my heart halt in my chest. “Artemisia!”
Climbing the stairs as fast as I can without blacking out, I leave his angry growls and the guards trying to get him to calm back down behind.
I lean against the cold door to the dungeons as I catch my breath.
Just as I’m sure to be able to walk on my wobbly feet, I get through the labyrinth I call my new home to get to my bed.

I scoff, ignoring her once again as I step around the staircase to open the door.
It opens to a large hallway that is adorned with sculptures. I stare in awe as I pass them, nearing the room where the voices come from.
Jumping as an annoying giggle reaches my ears, I squint my eyes to walk straight to what seems to be the bedroom.
I hesitate a moment before I pop my head in, finding it empty.
Maybe they heard me coming.
As I’m about to tiptoe my way out of there, I turn around to face a grinning Logan.
“Hello, sweetheart. Are you lost?” He asks me mockingly, holding up his phone that seems to play the annoying voices.
“Oh, you have to be kidding me,” I murmur, making him laugh.
He leans in as I sense the door behind me being opened, and Matthew’s scent intensifies.
Argh, why do they have to smell so good?
“Never heard how curiosity killed the kitten?” He asks, laughing at his own wordplay.
“We are a bit irritated about the fact that you care about Fynn this much.” Matthew’s husky whisper shivers through me as he leans in to talk directly into my ear. “So, we thought to make you show you how good you can feel with us.‘
I gasp as he wraps his arms around me, making me feel his big bulge against my ass.
