chapter seventy five

GRACIE 

I ran blindly, my heart pounded frantically against my ribcage,  my veins surged with adrenaline mixed with fear ,  I couldn't really see each turn I made around the mansion,  it was dark,  where were the lights? , I  needed to Hazel and get out of this place.. 

I couldn't imagine the trauma she must be in now, if she was scared,  if right now she was crying for me or Hayden. 

Hayden....

Oh god,  I wondered if he has realized that we've been kidnapped,  I've never needed him as I did right now.  I should never have left,  but it was already too late to regret that . Right now I have to fight for myself and Hazel,  at the same time I would be fighting for him. 

My feet slowed to a halt as I reached a dead end,  I cried out my frustration. 

It was too late to turn around. The footsteps were getting louder,  it was only a matter of seconds before they get to me. 

"Here we are,  aren't we? "
