(A/N Note: Since you guys have been patient I decided to give you a little sneak peak)

*Trigger warning for child abuse and collars*

At the palace, Octavia and Ezra's phone is ringing, and she smiles as she attempts to answer it until Stella snatches it away from her, "Sorry, sweetie. No talking to that deadbeat. Andrealphus, look who's finally calling!"

Andrealphus, sitting nearby with a book in hand and reading glasses on his face looks up, "Oooh! Took him this long? That's hilarious."

Octavia's phone continues to ring but Stella doesn't even bother to answer it. She, instead, continues to gloat with her brother and Crimson. Octavia sits on the couch, clutching a pillow and frowning.

"He thinks he's going to talk to his daughter! Hilarious!" Stella laughed

"And it looks like Violet is calling too!" Crimson said, picking up Ezra's phone, "Too bad I got the brat locked up in his room." He laughed

"Hilarious!" Andrealphus laughed

"Hilarious!" Stella laughed

The two siblings and Crimson laugh together. Octavia has her hands on her beanie, becoming more fed up, and gets up from the sofa. She runs past some butlers, who are putting up a poster of Andrealphus over a portrait of Stolas and Octavia, and leaves the room.

She stops by Ezra's room and knocks on his door, "Ezra?"

Inside of Ezra's room, he is sitting on the floor in a fetal position. A collar is on his neck to prevent him from using his powers.

He hears a knock on his door, "Octavia? Is that you?" He asked

"Yeah." She said

Ezra sits by the door, "You know you could get in trouble just for talking to me."

"I know and I don't care." Octavia said

"Have you heard anything from my mom?" He asked

"She's been trying to call you, but your bastard father ignores her call." Octavia sighed, "I'm really sorry." She said

"It's fine." Ezra said

"I have a plan to get you back to her. I just need you to be patient a little longer." Octavia said

"It's not like I have a choice." Ezra said
