Chapter 186
Chapter 186 The end of our journey.
The cell was just like the one that I woke up in. And he kneeled at the wall. He was chained down, one of his hands fitted on a chair. His veins were and they let him bleed into a bowl. The bowl had a good amount of blood already. His skin looked pale, and he was breathing slowty. His head hung and it was obvious he could hardly keep himself, but two men on his both sides with knives in their hands made sure he did. his gaze darkened
I could not think. I got free from Charles grip and I ran there. I kneeled down to him and I held his head. He lifted it up and even if his when he saw me, what I saw in his eyes was pain. I quickly tried to do something to the chain to let him go, hut one man pulled me back. "Don't touch them!" he shouted at me. I was about to continue when I heard him.
"Alice, I'm so sorry." He whispered. "I'm so sorry. I should have protected you better." 1
His tears rolled down on his cheek.
I could not stop my tears from falling, but I shook my head.
"No, we must get out of here, understand? We must think about something, and..." I whispered, not letting the others know what I just said, but he
not let me finish.
"Hush." He whispered, then he lowered his head again, and shook it a little, then he looked back at me.
"I don't think I will be out,
ut, but you must survive, understand?" he whispered again.
"No, we are going together... I'll find a way..." I sobbed, but as I finished the sentence, I felt Charles grabbing my jacket, pulling me up.
"Okay, lovers, bid your last farewell to each other, as Alice is going to miss her ship."
"Charles, let me go!" I screamed at him, like 1 was out of my mind, but he was like he did not even hear me. I kicked and punched him as hard as I could, but he did not care.
"Gideon, I'll come back for you. We will find you." I shouted while I still sobbed, but the next thing that grabbed my attention was Charles' noddingThis is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
One man moved behind Gideon instantly, and the last thing I saw before he dragged me out of the cell was the man put his knife to his neck and the fist drops of blood covered the side of the blade.
I do not know when I stopped screaming. I desperately wanted to get free from Charles' grip. Not to be free, as I felt like my life was over anyway, just to get his knife and kill him. Unable to think anymore, I kicked, hit, and bit him. I did everything I could to hurt him physically, but when he had enough, he gave it back. He slapped me so hard I felt like the world was spinning around me, and as he could not handle me, he requested help. Two men grabbed me this time. They were stronger than me. I could not move. I only screamed while they put me in a van, and they locked me in.
After I heard him sit in, I hit the door so hard, my hands and arms were so red and painful, but I did not care. I pushed myself to its doors, ignoring the pain, but it did not open. I still tried when the van started moving and I fell when he stepped onto the brake suddenly. The road was not a busy one, I guessed, as it shook me badly. I could not stay in one place. I still tried to break free, unsuccessfully, It seemed like ages when I finally realised there was no way out, so I just laid down, bearing the percussion and I cried quietly.
I thought about Gideon. I thought about last night. His offended face hunted me. The last time when I saw him, he was angry with me. He was angry. because he did not want me to skate with Lucas, and he thought he does not mean that much for me to have time to be with him. I neglected him in the last few weeks, even though I loved him so much. How much I wanted to see him, just ones again. Just to tell him I am sorry, to tell him how much he meant to me. If I could see him again just for a minute, I would tell him how much I loved him, I thought,
Finally, the van stopped, and I heard the locks of the door open. Charles and another man stepped inside, to pull me up,
"Come on, lee queen, you are going to be late, and I can't book another roule for you." Charles told me while he pushed me out of the van. I was tired, and I did not care about anything anymore, actually, so I did not resist. I obeyed him.
"It seems like you need trauma to behave. I like that." He laughed.
We walked for a long time, when I had a question. It did not matter, nevermore, but I needed to know the answer.
"Why did you kill him?"
He sighed.
"Oh darling. I told you already. It's all about revenge. Actually, I didn't want to kill him. It was the Devilley's order. The smaller sin that the Sullovans did was they joined the D'angelis and, because of them, Adams and his daughter were killed. Adams was a respected member of the Devilles, and this

was a good way to teach them a lesson. Even if the Sullivans are bigger than the Adams', they can't kill their people. The main reason, however, was something that Spencer Sullivan did many years ago. He betrayed them badly. Spencer really underestimated Adams. He made sure the Devilles would
now his secret even if he killed him. So, for that, your Gideon needed to die to render the favour. I'm sorry dear."
