(Talon's POV)

I followed behind Angel and Jamie as we made our way down the hall towards the kitchen. Angel seemed to be relaxed around both Jamie and I. I was afraid Angel would have started freaking out when Jamie called her Mommy.

Instead she smiled at Jamie and looked a little more comfy than before. When we made it to the kitchen Jamie started pulling everything out that was needed to make brownies that he could reach for.

I noticed Angel just standing in the doorway looking down at her feet, which were bare, afraid to come in. I had a lot of questions to ask Angel about what happened to her for those 8 years she was in that cage.

I could tell from how she acted around use that she's not used to being around people. It seemed that she was afraid to do or ask anything from me. It also broke my heart when Angel freaked out after I let go of her hand.

When Angel woke up this morning and I looked in her dark green eyes, I knew she was my 'mate'. I also knew that Angel could feel the pull between us and I think that's why she freaked when I wasn't near her. Turning to face Angel I saw that she had stepped back so that she was standing in the hallway instead of the doorway to the kitchen.

I frowned at what Angel must have been thinking to cause her to retreat back like that. "Mommy I got all the things we need to make brownies! Can you help me make them cause Daddy always says that I have to have a grown up with me in the kitchen so I don't get hurt?" Jamie asked holding a box of brownie mix in his tiny hands.

Suddenly I heard a sob come from Angel as she backed up and ran out the room quickly. I looked at Jamie who had a sad scared look on his face. "Did I do something bad Daddy? I didn't mean to make Mommy cry, I'm sorry," he whispered as a tear strolled down his small cheek.

I knelt down in front of Jamie, taking his little hands in mine, "You didn't make Mommy cry, buddy. I think she is still sad because of her bad dream."

Jamie looked up at me as his dried his face with his hands. "I didn't make Mommy cry?" he asked with hopeful eyes.

"No, but why don't you go into the game room and play or watch a movie while I go see Mommy, ok? Then we can start on the brownies when we come back down," I told Jamie so he wouldn't feel guilty.

Jamie shook his head yes before running off towards the game room. I left the kitchen and followed my small mates scent up the stairs and all the way to my room.

(Angel's POV)

I ran out the kitchen with tears streaming down my face trying to push make the memories that came across my mind. It wasn't Jamie's fault that I cried from what he said. I sat curled in the of Tal's room on the floor with my face hidden in my arms that were wrapped around my legs.

I closed my eyes trying not to think about all those memories that ruined my life. That first time I woke up in the cage, all I could remember before then was being with people who I think were my family and pack.

The harder I tried to think about my life before I was taken was hard. I could only remember small parts. All I could think about everyday as i was locked up in my cage was that I was going to die. Did my pack really give me away or was I taken?

Why is it so hard to figure it out? Maybe it has something to do with being tortured all the time. But when I was first taken I didn't have to stay in my cage all the time, only at night. Then something happened one day in the kitchen that made the rogue Alpha mad, that I was forced to stay in my cage all the time.
