NovelEnglishChapter Sixteen +25 BONUS Chapter Sixteen I knew something was wrong the moment I set my eyes on the boy named Eli.
Maybe it was because he seemed so... nervous. The car cto an abrupt stop before a tiny building that didn't look anything like a romantic spot. My hands wrapped around the dagger I had carried along with me.
Eli was quick to open the door and Cas walked out.
"Wait!" I called out, but it was too late. There was a man behind her, he placed a brown rag to her nose and she immediately fell into his arms. She had been drugged.

A rogue.
He was a rogue.
The man reached out to pullout, but I slashed at him with my dagger; I got him across the eyes, and he let out a snarl. More men appeared; there were about six of them. The other door was pulled open, and I had no place to hide. One of the men pickedout of the car; I lost the dagger and was left with no weapon. I fought him, the best I could, but he was strong. He tossedto the floor and sent a kick to my rib.
"You... said you just needed to ask them questions.” Eli stammered.
"Yes, questions, that's all we needed to ask." One of them replied.
I rose from the ground. "Let us go; if you want money, my father would pay you..." I never got to finish the sentence; the man slapped me.
My father had never hitbefore and maybe that was while the strike had felt so painful. I spit out a tooth. Blood poured down my nose, and half of my face seemed to have been set on fire. For a moment all I saw was white.
The sbrown clothing was placed on my nose. I fought even harder, but I couldn't win, and soon I couldn't even move a limb.
Cas trusted me; she trustedto protect her, and I failed. I let this happen because I wasn't strong enough.

Cas was already awake, tears streaming down her eyes, just like me, she was bound too, but with a rope which was clearly digging into her skin.
"They're both awake!" The man who must have been kept here to watch over us announced, and the other five barged in.
I recognized the man with a slash across his eyes-I had inflicted that on him; the injury was bound to leave him blind in one eye and hopefully a scar too. He seemed to be the leader here, and I couldn't help but imagine how much that would have been a bruise to his pride; a little girl had done that to him.
Eli walked in last. I noticed his hands shook, he was afraid. Things weren't going as he thought. My gaze found him, and hatred was all I felt for him; he had betrayed her. She loved him, and he betrayed her. What I couldn't understand was why? She never did him any wrong; Cas was a girl loved by everyone she met. He was feeling guilty. I could tell that from the way his eyes kept flickering to Cas and then to1/2 Chapter Sixteen +25 B BONUS
"You know what this is?" one of the men asked me. I stared at the cbal ppt, burning with a strange green fire.
"Cursed Flames." I gasped. I had only heard of it, but never had I seen th until this is day. "Intelligent little girl. You know, not many your age would know what type of fire this is." "What do you want?"
