Chapter 25: Cage the Beast

Nelos

I clench my teeth as the beast rolls inside my chest. He's desperate for release and I feel so fucking wound up that I might burst. With everything going on and finding out Shaye is in this hellhole as well, it's taken everything I can to keep the monster at bay.

Sweat beads across my brow. My hands tremble at my sides, but I fist them. I've gotta get out of the cafeteria before I turn.

The stench of the inmates eating churns my stomach. I spin to walk out when my shoulder clips the prisoner behind me.

"Fucking prick." A huge bald guy, covered in tatts, shoves a hand against my chest.

"Don't touch me." My demon roars forward within me, but the bounds zap him back for now. How long before he bursts out? Before nothing can hold him back and he goes on a killing rampage?

"You fucking stupid or something?" Macho guy sticks out his chest.
