I slowly peel my eyes open, nausea swirling in the pit of my stomach. I have to take a minute to get my bearings; my heart rate kicks up. My head pounding, almost like I drank too much last night, but I assume that it must be a side effect of whatever fucking drug those fuckers dosed me with. I have no fucking idea how they found out who I am; I was so careful and didnât ever reveal anything to anyone. Thatâs when I remember what Noah said; Jace had a call from someone who must have been able to do some significant fucking intel on me.
A red mist descends as I feel my anger building; I wonder how long they have been digging. I can only assume that itâs been going on since I got here; the anger keeps building until I feel like Iâm going to explode. I peel myself into an upright position; at least they had the decency not to tie me up. I take in my surroundings. Iâm in what looks like a bedroom, except the door is made from heavy metal instead of the standard wood.
The room itself isnât huge, just big enough for the bed, a small table that has a lamp on it, and thatâs it. Thereâs enough space for me to get up and walk around a little, but I can already feel the walls closing in on me. The door groans as it gets pulled open, revealing Zayde in the doorway.
âEnjoying your new surroundings, princess?â he sneers at me; I stare him down, not making any comment even though Iâm dying to tell the smug prick to go fuck himself. He doesnât enter the room; he stands there watching me. I sit down on the bed and wait to see if he will say anything, âso, running away from your father and leaving your fiancé distraught, thatâs a bit mean. Don't you think?â he says, finally breaking the silence that hangs between us.
âHow long?â I croak out; he quirks a brow at me in question. âHow long have you been digging?â I have to know the truth, but Iâm buying time trying to decide how the fuck I explain this shit to him.
âWell, your story didnât add up from the start, so I had Jace look into it, and when he couldnât find anything, he reached out to the only other person that we thought could help; lo and behold, Jamee managed to find out everything.â
Tears run down my face, a mixture of anger and fear fuelling my desire to remain here, where I felt safe and wanted. Iâll even go as far as saying that I made some friends with Talia and Frankie.
âYou have to let me explain,â I almost plead with him, and he shoots me a wide, toothy grin.
âOh, you will get your say, but not before we get our fucking answers,â he almost growls at me, hatred in his eyes, but he also seems
