“Are you seriously taking her to the Pit?” Later that evening, Tyler asked on the phone
Kade was in his room getting ready for the Pit, and Tyler called him to see if he had te his mind. Kade had never taken a date to the Pit before, and going with a female would scent ode to most there. There were a couple of girls who went to the Pit, but they were the kind o wouldn’t mind going beyond the cage and fighting for themselves. Lana wasn’t strong enough to fight in the Pit, and it might even be dangerous for her.
Kade wouldn’t let anything happen to her, of course. But she didn’t know that. It was clear that she didn’t trust him, and this was a good way of getting her to trust him. If she can see for herself that he will protect her no matter what, then maybe she will open up to him a little more and lean on him. Perhaps he won’t seem so closed off in public.
Sloan had already mentioned that the tabloids are still having trouble buying the fact that Kade and Lana were an item, and if they weren’t buying it, then Caleb wouldn’t buy it either. He was still hounding Kade for more information about his relationship with Lana, and Kade was sick of it.
“It’s the only way I can get her to trust me,” Kade said with a shrug, even though he knew Tyler couldn’t see him. “Look, I’m not saying it’s my best idea… but it’ll be fun and give Lana a taste of the dark side for once. She could use a little danger in her life, and, if Caleb gets wind that Lana is there, it’ll drive him fucking crazy p>
“Is that all this is? Your way of driving your enemy crazy?” Tyler asked, his tone questioning Kade’s true intention.
He didn’t justify that with an answer; instead, he said, “I’ll see you soon p>
He hung up the phone without another word. He checked over his appearance in the mirror one last time. Even though he wasn’t going to the Pit to fight, it always seemed to happen. He wouldn’t be surprised if he ended up in the ring tonight.
Kade stepped out of his room, shutting his door behind him as he made his way into the living room. Lana was already there, dressed in the exact clothes Kade had picked up for her. He knew that she wasn’t going to have anything in her closet worth taking to the pit, so he went by the store after school and grabbed a couple of new outfits for her. At first, she declined them, but Kade was convincing, and she looked hot in them.
She stood before him with her black tank top that hugged her form perfectly, outlining her perky breasts. The leather jacket she wore over it shone in the light, and the dark, curve-fitting jeans fit her perfectly.
Kade’s eyes couldn’t help but wander around her appearance, his breathing heavy. She was

gorgeous; there was no doubt about that. The more Kade thought about it, the more he regretted his decision to introduce her to the guys down in the Pit, knowing that they were going to be all over her.
“Well?” She asked, motioning for her outfit. “How do I look p>
“Perfect,” he said, his voice coming out a bit strained, and then he cleared his throat and tried again. “You look great. Come on. We are going to be late p>
“Late? I didn’t think the Pit was a set time,” she said, following after him and keeping her distance at the same time.
“I like to be there before the fights begin,” Kade explained. “It gets crowded fast p>
“That makes sense p>
They drove on Kade’s motorcycle into the Western Territory. Lana was pressed against his back, her head resting on him as if her own head weighed too much. Her arms were tightly around him, and Kade would be lying if he said he didn’t enjoy it. He knew that Lana enjoyed riding on the back of his bike, as much as she didn’t want to admit it. She was a thrill seeker, and Kade was almost tempted to explore more of what type of thrills she craved.
It was clear that Caleb was a stickler for the rules and never let Lana free from the little cage he kept her in last year. It was probably like that for most of Lana’s life.
But not anymore; if Lana can get anything out of this experience, it’s to break free from that cage and live her own life. Be her own person and explore what makes her truly happy.
The Pit was located beneath an abandoned warehouse. Once the engine of the bike was off, and Kade pulled his helmet off, brushing his fingers through his disheveled hair, he took in a deep breath of the outside Western air.
Lana took off her helmet as well and set it with his; she wrapped her arms around herself, as if trying to hold herself together. She sucked in her bottom lip and looked around; her cheeks were an adorable shade of pink.
“So, this is the Pit?” She asked, looking around like she expected to see monsters lurking around the corner.
Kade couldn’t help the laughter that bubbled out of him as he took her in. She was cute; he would give her that. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her into him.
“Come on, Little Bird. Let me show you what the Pit really is,” he told her as he guided her into the warehouse.
Once inside and the door shut behind them, Lana sucked in a sharp breath. It was dark in the warehouse; most of the lights didn’t work. It was dark for an Alpha who could see perfectly at

guided her towards the door in the back of the warehouse; her steps were slowed and measured, but she stayed by his side because he knew where he was going. He didn’t take his hand off her lower back as he pulled the door open and guided her down the stairs.
There weren’t any actual lights until they reached the bottom step, and then the faight beyond the door was enough to make Lana relax slightly, though her body was still rided with tension. Kade could already hear the shouting and the cheering of those in the Pias the first round of fights began. They find the meanest and the baddest rogues to fight, and from the potent scent coming from beyond the door, he knew tonight was no different.
He pulled the door open, only to be greeted by one of the guards. Kade knew him well, having hired him.
“Alpha,” the guard said, bowing his head and stepping aside.
Kade nodded in response and turned to see a very pale-faced Lana standing in the distance behind him.
Kade shook his head and took hold of Lana’s hand, pulling her alongside him.
“This is my girlfriend, Lana,” Kade said, and then he winked at the guard as he walked by.
Lana’s cheeks were bright pink again, and Kade couldn’t help but smirk at the effect he knew he had on her.
Tyler was already near the front, shouting for Johnson to get his act together because he was starting to lose the fight against a large rogue. They were both in wolf form, and the scent of blood was strong.
Lana’s eyes were wide when she caught wind of some of the fight, and she flinched when more blood poured out of one of the wolves.
“You actually showed up with her,” Tyler laughed, his eyes finding Lana’s pale face. “Oh, this is going to be good p>
“Why do you think that?” Kade asked, stepping beside Tyler and bringing Lana with him so he could get a better view.
Tyler laughed and patted Kade on the back.
“Because you’re going in the ring next p>
