Katie's POV“Did he just figure me out?” Lucy asked. I shrugged, waiting for him to say his piece first. “I don't understand what you mean…” I said to him, He didn't make any comment afterward. We stopped by the tap site where we were supposed to take the water.“We need a container or something. Something to hold the water.” We both looked around, searching for something that could hold some water. Lucky enough there was an emptied trash bottle laying around. I didn't have the luxury of chasing its sanitary health, Instead I prayed its last content wasn't something I should be worried about.Roman filled it with water then spoke some gibberish words to it beneath his breath. “There you go.” I took it from him, lifting my eyes to meet him for the next instructions.“Just use it for your face, light you are trying to wash off a stain.” He added.“Would it hurt?” I stared at the bottle in doubt.

Killian's POVThe moment I dropped the phone and stood to my feet, Shedrack followed me with an accusatory look in his eyes.“The record room? That wasn't part of the plan. Why can't you get it yourself, I mean you are strong enough to survive whatever comes after.” Shedrack folded his arms and squared up in my face. I knew he was only being protective of his special friend whether he decided to say it or not. I was just done with explaining myself.“If there will be any hint of information that talks about Hannah Martins, it's going to be inside of those record rooms.” I said, choosing to move out of his way so I could prepare for the backlash. There had to be security of some sort, they weren't stupid enough to leave their most prized asset—which is the information they hold of really powerful people that got away with dubious shit. “There is more than one record room?” He stood toe to toe with me again.“Okay, dude if you don't back t

Katie's POVWe stumbled out of the clinic, the sick green interior and the dingy smell of wetness still hung over my head. It felt like a heavy veil clothed upon my skin and I wanted to rip it off so bad, I fell to the ground gasping for air.Roman came out a few seconds later, I don't know what held him back but he took a bit longer.“Come on, get up Katie. The fight isn't over, now isn't the time to rest.” Roman gingered. I stretched my weak hand to him, allowing him to drag me up on my feet and pull me in the direction of the side of the building. Before we got there, Shedrack appeared.“I can't find Ryan! I can't find Ryan guys and I have no memory of him or when I last saw him.” Shedrack panicked. I could see in his eyes that he has been crying for a bit.“I am so glad you guys are safe.” He cried, hugging Roman tight but he didn't hug him back, then he embraced me next. The dread returned in Shedrack's eyes. “Ryan…”

Katie's POV “Don’t fall asleep now…we still have to get out of this hellhole.” “Till then.”I muttered, drifting into sleep anyways.~~~~~A pain on the side of my head was enough to wake me up from my slumber. A slumber I was aware I had embarked on from a good stand point but had no idea it got better in my absence. Because tell me why I woke up to a cool non-dingy like air and in Killian's arms. It was the best feeling I have ever thought of having. He carried me bridal style out of the tunnel and into the fresh air of Monaco.It was hard to tell where exactly what I was seeing aside from the reflection of the moon on the surface of the lake. Even the boat wasn't powered up enough to shine its bright light around.“Oh you are finally awake…” He smiled down at me in his arms and I just wanted to snuggle in harder. He was shirtless, the top part of his overall was dipped down and tied by the base.“Guys,

Roman’s POV“Take as much time as you need…” Shedrack rubbed my back and I could feel my features instantly soften.I took in a deep breath, preparing myself to relive the trauma once again. Every attention was on me, staring at my lips, my face, waiting for the first word to fall out.“First off, can I just say anyone who has faced those slippers one on one, you are eligible to sign up for after combat therapy. Because those creatures were surely manufactured from some of the surest depths of hell. I can't be told otherwise. Their breath smells like the pit of everything wrong with this world and till this very moment, I don't even know what they really look like.” I said to them.Katie had the most understanding face out of everyone and I knew why. While she was still unconscious on Killian's back while he gave her a piggy ride, he and Shedrack filled me in on how she was attacked by a slipper who threatened to kill her but at the end got killed by Ryan.“So at first I thought the w
