....... KATRINE'S POV.......

.

"Look assholes, I don't know who the fuck you think you are but I don't joke with food okay, am starving here"

I Screamed on top of my voice

The scratch on my laps had started circulating and I was terribly weak

"If I were you I'll keep my mouth shut, you are just causing yourself more pain " A voice outside replied

He was right tho, the more I spoke , the more pain I felt and it was getting increasingly horrible by the minute

So guess what I've decided to do?

Talk less and act more

I wasn't helpless !!

I can't be helpless !!

And I never will be helpless!!

Fuck these assholes if they think am weak!!

The've messed with the wrong girl

I don't need anyone's help, I never did

"Fuck you all !!!"

I gave them my last speech before I stopped talking

No way I was gonna let him have the last word

Quiting is so not in my dictionary, hell no it's not even in my blood

I tore my long garment and formed a long cloth like rope

Then there was a small window by the side of the place I'd been locked in

It was made of sand

Omg!! Sand?

Why didn't I think of it before??

I did a slow dance of joy before bringing out one my wooden stakes

Yeah,I know surprising right??

Of course I brought them with me

I stock like 10 in my outfit since I found out I was living with supernatural beings that could take advantage of me by sucking out my blood, so just incase any of them were getting any funny ideas i was ever prepared for them

I knocked on all part of the wall to look for a place that didn't sound deep

And in no time i found one and I presumed it was a door that had been covered with clay sand

This is my only chance ,it's now or never

I began digging as the clay fell down effortlessly

After like an hour of digging, I saw a wood

My whole energy had drained out of me, I was so weak and inner instincts were yelling at me to give up and call it quits

But I was Katerina Montez

And I am not a quiter, I've never been, And I wasn't gonna start now not when my life and the life of that cute jerk depended on it

I used my last energy to hit the door as it opened wide and I busted outside

I just hoped no one heard the noise

I began running without looking back

I didn't know where I was running to but I knew it was far away from those filthy, crazy, and dangerous species

I lost my strength and stummbled down on the ground

I couldn't stand up,I felt so weak

But I could make out a person running towards me with all force

A part of me is wishing that it would be help and not my captors coming back to get me

But I didn't have much time to find out who the person was, today is the last day that I might die

With that awful thought in mind,I pass out probably to the great unknown....

.... Oliver POV....

Getting into Marwan camp was no ordinary feat,it was almost suicidal until Damian showed up

Yeah,you heard that right, Damian showed up,the guy who was supposed to be lying at home waiting for the cure was out here on his own looking for the cure himself

I know I don't like you one bit,but shouldn't you have done yourself a lot of good and stayed at home?"

I rasp quietly at him looking at him with blazing eyes

We were still in the wolf territory and any little noise or twig breaking could give us away

I came to find my girl,you didn't think I was gonna let you manhandle her did you?"

Damian replied me with that smug smile that I had so been wishing to punch outta his face

Does dad know you're here, cos no way will I be held responsible if you eventually collapse and die due to your stubbornness "

I yell at him with utmost fury slipping into my voice

Oliver"

Damian began steadily

We're not team material,so let's split up that way it'll be faster to find Kate"

I couldn't agree more,at least another individual had decided to accompany me on this self

made death wish

Fine! But if anything happens you're to be blamed,I had everything under control until you showed"

I humphed with disdain at him while eyeing him wickedly

A part of me would have loved to take care of Damian once and for all giving me direct access to the throne but father would find out and it wouldn't turn out well for me

Really?? Under control you say?? I clearly remember someone almost becoming wolf food if I hadn't made an appearance"

He smirked mockingly at me

We'll have more time to finish this later, assuming you don't die fast" I say to him while walking away

But then remembering something I stop and turn to look him

Tossing the pendant that Anne had given me before,I toss it to him

If you eventually find her first,toss that necklace in the air,it'll transport you back to the castle" I say to him while making sure not to make eye contact

I feel like I'm being stupid to give him my only protection but just incase I come across her I could always use my abilities to speed out of here, but Damian wouldn't be in a position to use his powers

Thanks, that's thoughtful of you, for the first time in your life you put someone else's safety first"

He answers me while collecting the necklace and walking away

Well it's time to find that little miss prima Donna, I hope she'll be grateful for the risk I'm putting myself in

..... Damian POV.....

I've been walking fo hours after I splited with Oliver, trying to keep my senses together but with each step that I take I grow weaker

It's the final day,if I don't find Kate today we'll both die without me being able to tell her those words that I had been trying to hide ever since I met her

Thump, thump, thump!!!!

I could make out the heartbeat of a person, and all my instincts even though I'm weak they're at alert

It's only one person in the whole of this town that could have a heartbeat

Kate!!!!

Moving in the direction of where I can feel the beat,there she is sprawled on the floor

It takes all my reserved energy and will power that I race towards her to find her unconscious or dead

Hey!! Princess open your eyes,it's me" I shake her in a bid for her to wake up

From the sides of the forest that we were in, I could make out silhouettes of wolf as they approached us

But remembering the necklace that Oliver had given me,I bring it out and holding Kate close to me,I throw the necklace in the air

Whoosh!!!

A sort of tornado engulfs us,and we're back to the castle

I use my strength to pi k Kate up as I head for my Chambers,but I can't take much steps as I also crumble in a heap beside Katerina....
