The immense interior gates close behind us, the silver-lined bars nothing more than a cage to hold us in. High up on the fifth floor, guards watch us from countless stations, weapons primed for – I don’t know, an uprising, maybe? What do they expect us to do when our magic has been suppressed and our every move is bound? Challenge them with a staring contest?
Sorry, guys. I have much more important shit to worry about.
Starting with Ki.
I search the line of guards escorting us into the cafeteria.
Ki still walks on the outskirts. An outcast even though he doesn’t seem to realize it.
Do they know he was once with a supernatural?
You never should have let it go as far as you did.
Should have remembered just how susesptible humans can be.
The line tightens, guards beating the inmates into single-line formation. I tear my gaze away from Ki.
Lock my gaze ahead of me.
All my senses screaming in high alert as I notice the stares from the inmates in the cafeteria.
Focus sharpening on me.
Awareness.
And then recognition.
The whispers are quiet at first, then they grow in intensity. Rising. My name passing from lip to lip, changing from curse to awe and back again. The inmates begin to crowd our procession in, hands extended to reach me, the whispers becoming shouts. The guards scramble to block them, but they’re already spread too thin.
No one to stop them as a group of inmates surround me.
“Now why don’t you just slow down, sista.” A rough hand closes around my arm. Jerking me away from the wall and toward him. The acrid smell of the inmate’s breath blasts across my face from between blackened teeth. “Tell us why you’re in such a hurry.”
Beyond him is a moving blur of dirtied, grinning faces.
Closing in around me.
I try to keep my head down. Twisting away so that my face is close to the wall, in frantic attempt to shield my identity.
His grip pins my arms back.
“Maybe she don’t wanna talk to you, man.” An arm as dry and tan as old leather moves in front of my vision. Clenches lightly around my neck, pushed in just far enough to strangle my labored breathing. “Let me have my say.”
The first set of hands don’t release me. Simply tighten. “Nah, my boss has a few things he needs to say. Because this bitch done screwed him over for one last time.”
Get free. Now. Emergency alarms in my head as the guards still fail to reach us and the arm around my neck tightens.
“She don’t look so high and mighty.” A third voice crowds into the raucous laughter. “Now we’ve got her away from her KAO boyfriend.”
What in the—Were they waiting to get me away from Ki?
Waited to attack until they knew he wouldn’t be able to see me.
Or save me.
How the hell did they know?
I slam my foot back at both of my captors, only to find that the struggle simply hardens their grips to iron.
The arm around my neck tightens until my every attempt to inhale is choked away in the base of my throat.
