Chapter 8: Sold!

Evelyn’s POV

Both my hands and feet were bound tightly with ropes. I could only watch helplessly as Hannah smirked at me, her eyes gleaming with malicious excitement. It would seem she had been planning this for quite some time.

"Leave us," Hannah said in a commanding tone, and her goons marched out of the shack. She wanted to be alone with me. I started to get worried.

"Hannah, Please, whatever I did wrong, I'm sorry, okay? Just let me go, and I promise I won't tell anyone," I pleaded, my voice trembling with fear.

Hannah flared up with anger. "Don't pretend you don't know what this is about, Evelyn." She walked towards me with her fists clenched.

I flinched slightly but remained silent. Hannah sighed and stepped back. "I know you got accepted into Thunderclap."

My eyes widened. How did she...? When? Who told her? Was it Sebastian? My mind was a flurry of thoughts and conspiracies. Hannah knew I had been accepted into Thunderclap, and now she had me in her palm.
