Waking up with a start, Catalina looked around the room startled. "Ow." grabbing the back of her neck as she felt a creak on it.

Standing up slowly, she felt her whole body sore. Stretching she felt like the jingle of one of her favorite cereals, Rice Crispies with the Snap, Crackle, Pop. 

Realizing that she fell asleep on the floor, she decided to look out the window. The sun was out and bright causing her to look away from the rays. Blinking she looked around and saw no sign of Kaden, but still saw other wolves surrounding the Inn.

"Just perfect. How the hell am I going to get out of here?" saying out loud as she sighed.

Turning around she made her way to the bathroom. Thirty minutes later, she comes out showered and dressed for the day of planning her grand escape. At least she hoped she would.

Making it downstairs she smells the delicious aroma of breakfast. Though she was feeling sick to her stomach because of her situation, she was hungry and needed to eat.

"Ah, Catalina good morning dear. How did you sleep?" Mrs. Wood asked as she was setting the dining room table with the food.

"Good morning Mrs. Wood. I slept...on the floor unfortunately."

"Floor?" asking her confused.

"Yes. My wonderful Mate found it amusing to be out my window howling most of the night along with his minions. Did you not hear it?"

"No I didn't. I turned off the volume of my hearing aides if not I would have."

"Oh, well. I'm glad you did. It was so spine-chilling. I know for a fact that he wants to drive me crazy." responding while sitting down on the dining room chair.

"I could imagine dear. King Kaden is relentless and now that he found you, there will be no ends to what he would do to have you, even if it's driving you temporarily insane." she tells her sadly.

"...or drive me to the loony bin."

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Tossing and turning, Kaden grunts in frustration. After being told that his Mate was seen half naked by his warriors, Blaze had taken over. Shifting and jumping off the palace's balcony he ran towards the Inn. Once there, he saw his Queen looking out the window. The sight of her made his insides burn and the need to have her intensified. 

To let her know that he wasn't going to be giving up and that she was trapped, he howled setting off his soldiers to do the same. If she wasn't going to be leaving the Inn willingly, then he would drive her too.

The knock on his door made him groan. The pain in his chest that had surfaced the night before was making it unbearable to breathe.

Hearing the door open he hears his Beta and best friend Ash speak. "How are you feeling?"

"Like total sh*t." grumbling under the covers.

"Hmm, well you definitely sound it." 

"Thanks."

"You are very welcomed."

"Is there a reason why you are here?" asking in annoyance.

"Well, you have a guest." simply stating.

Uncovering his face from under the covers he cocks his brow at his friend. "Who?"

"The person who you wanted summoned...Zariah."

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Catalina was back in her room after eating her breakfast. Mrs. Wood and her discussed some ideas of her escape and thought about putting them into action.

Taking her phone out she called the one person who can help her. Dialing the number by memory, she heard the other line ring and waited for them to pick up.

"Hello, Luna residence." greeting cheerfully.

"Abuelo. Hola." greeting back.

"Mi niña hola, como estas? (My little girl hi, how are you?)" 

"Mal abuelo, bien mal. Necesito tu ayuda. (Bad grandpa, real bad. I need your help.)" she tells him as she began to cry.

Telling him everything, he listened carefully. "So now I'm stuck in this Inn with around ten werewolves trapping us in. He even stood outside my window and howled half the night to drive me loca abuelo. I don't know what to do. Please, I need your help." pleading with her grandfather.

He stayed quiet for a while until he responded. "Catalina, no te preocupes. Te voy a decir lo que tienes que hacer. (...don't worry. I will tell you what you need to do.)"

"Okay." responding then listened to her grandfather give her instructions of what she needed to do.

A good hour passed and Catalina was thanking her grandfather for his advice and help. She knew he would since he knew about their kind. "Gracias abuelo. I will do what you said and I will call you as soon as I get out of here."

"Okay mija. Remember to follow the plan to the T. You only have a short window for it to work, if not you will be there giving him full advantage to take you then mark you and that is the last thing you want to happen. Entiendes? (Understand?)" he asks making sure she did.

"Si, entiendo. Thank you abuelo. I knew you would know what to do." smiling at the end.

"Anything for my little girl. Now, start doing what you need to do so you can come home. Call me at anytime of the day, okay?"

"Yes, I will. I love you abuelo and I will call you as soon as possible. Good night and please pray that it works."

"Always Praying for you mija." he tells her before they both end the call.

Setting the phone down she smiles. "Abuelo's plan may work." saying out loud then made her way downstairs to tell Mrs. Wood the plan.

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

"...so, are you sure this will work?" holding the vial in his hand, Kaden inspected it carefully.

"If it didn't, I wouldn't be giving it to you. Would I?" Zariah sassed causing him to glare at her. Not only was Zariah a smart ass and highly intelligent she was also beautiful and resourceful.

"It better, if not it's your f'ing head Zariah. I need to be a thousand percent sure that it will work." he growls at her.

Rolling her eyes she crossed her arms across her chest. "Yeah yeah, you don't scare me Kaden. If you don't trust me then hand it back. I'm sure you will find another way to get your precious Mate to come running to you willingly." shrugging her shoulders.

Glaring at her he looks at the vial again. "Fine, you will be handsomely rewarded for this...only if it works." smirking at her.

"It will work, now my King. I know how you can pay me half of my payment now." lustfully saying. Walking up to him, she traces her long sharp nails on his chest seductively.

Kaden smirked at her. He has had Zariah in his bed many a times. She was a good f**k, a distraction since he hadn't found his Mate but now...

Snatching her hand as it was making it's way down to his crotch he yanked her closer to his chest. His eyes turned black and his voice menacing. "Do not ever touch what doesn't belong to you. My Mate is the only one who can...got it?" 

Hissing in pain she nodded her head. Letting go of her she rubbed her aching wrist. "Not too long ago you craved my touch. Now this human who rejected you is giving you morals?" 

"She's my Mate and you were an easy lay. Now leave, I need to plan on how to get my beautiful Queen back." dismissing her with his hand. 

Zariah showed hurt but masked it. Though she knew there would never be anything between Kaden and her since she wasn't his Mate, she still had hoped that he would find favor in her.

He left the room and mind linked Ash to let him know of the vial that Zariah had given to him. He didn't want to waste any time in getting his Mate back and hopefully by the end of the week he would, and even then that was too long of a wait.

A/N: 07/19/2016

Hello my readers. Hope everyone is having a great week and Summer. I have been busy and will continue to be busy until the school year begins. 

Also, for those who have read my other books know that I don't like casting female characters, especially my main ones. But for this book I will make an exception since there are pics of Stephen and Irina I will be using in the story.

This is a filler chapter so if you guys are asking to know the "plan" you will know in the next chapters. So, will the plan work, whatever it is? Will Zariah really help Kaden?

I will update the next Chapter when I have time and since this was the second most requested last night, I updated it. Hope you guys liked it.

Thanks for the Reading, Voting and Commenting. Have a great week everyone and be safe!
