Chapter 23 Captured

"Drey, what is wrong?" Joanna , unable to see what was happening, asked, looking very concerned.

"Nothing that I can't manage," Audrey forced on a smile. With one powerful pull she sent the two siblings flying to the levelled side of the heel.

It was after Audrey pulled Joanna onto the ground that she realised that they were surrounded by the werewolves again. And this time around Audrey's legs were each bonded with a silver chain to prevent her from playing tricks on them.

They were immediately seized and taken away without being questioned.

Some minutes later the three companions were seen being shoved each into a different cell. The black clothes covering their head were taken off.

"Where the hell is this?" Audrey said hurrying to grab the iron bar.

Ahhh***

Audrey's scream of anguish filled the entire place causing Joanna to stand up from where she was pushed down.

"Drey, what is going on? Did they hurt you?" Joanna asked worriedly. She strained her neck to see whether she would be able to get a glimpse of the next cell where Audrey was locked in.

"That hurts," Audrey shot a murderous glance at the guy standing outside the iron bar smirking while staring at her burning hands.

"The iron bar of your cell is made from silver and I am sure you know what werewolves bane does to the skin so I advise that you stay away from the iron bars if you don't want to get burned into ashes," The guy said with a prideful look.

"You should have said that earlier but how dare you wait until I get myself burned before you let out the information? Is this the way your pack treats your guests?" Audrey asked angrily. How she wished she had a hold of the stupid security guard; then she would have definitely had her sweet revenge.

"You are not the one to decide for us whether you are guests, enemies or spies sent to get information about our pack. We will be the one to decide that...,"

"Did you just say we are spies and enemies, what bullshit are you talking about...,"

"I have told you to get away from the iron bars," the guy with a cold look warned seeing Audrey charged forward. If not that the iron bars were made of silver, it wouldn't have taken Audrey up to five minutes to take it down.

"Drey, calm down. I am sure they are gonna let us out of here soon after confirming our identity. Let's just wait for the higherup to come," Joanna, the most cool headed among the three captives, spoke in a composed tone.

"All the cells here are made from special materials that can hurt certain intruders depending on their identity so I advise that none of try anything stupid since at the end you are only gonna end up getting yourself killed faster," the guy said with a stern expression. He turned and walked out afterwards.

"Just wait and see what I will do when I get out of here," Audrey yelled loud enough for the departing guy to hear.

"She has such a nasty temper," the guy mumbled as he walked out of the dimly lit dungeon used for keeping their prisoners.

"Little rice ball, where did they lock you in?" Joanna asked as she let her eyes wander about the open space. "Did they hurt you? And what about your injured leg?"

Joanna waited to hear from her little brother but his response didn't come after waiting for three minutes.

"Hey little rice ball, stop scaring me and answer me now, will you?" Joanna panicked at the thought that something terrible might have happened to him.

Apart from the thought that her stepmother and sister will cook her alive, the mere thought that they might have harmed her little brother scares her.

In the entire household he is the one who always got her back so how could she ever wish for something bad to happen to him?

"Anthony this isn't funny anymore so answer me...,"

"Can you shot the fuck up and let me have some peace, mad girl," the husky tone of a man said angrily.

"You can fucking close your damn ears if you don't want to hear her voice stupid fool?" Audrey chided the man angrily. She couldn't stand the man calling her best friend mad even though she didn't know what he looked like.

"You...,"

"Shut the fuck up if you don't have anything better to say," Audrey shut him up abruptly before she turned and punched the side of the wall where she heard Joanna's voice came from.

"Anna, stop freaking out and wait for some time. I am sure they wouldn't dare to hurt him. And if they dare do something terrible to him then together we are gonna set the entire forest ablaze," Audrey said as she peeped at Joanna through the hole she made on the wall.

Seeing that her words weren't enough of an assurance to stop Joanna from worrying,  Audrey closed her eyes. With her eyes closed, all her senses became thrice sharper and she let them travel as far as they could.

"Big sis...," Audrey's ears pick up the inaudible voice of Anthony. She listened again to make sure she wasn't wrong.

"Anna, Tony is fine. He was knocked out when they seized us and he didn't wake up early that is why he didn't answer you earlier," Audrey relayed the words she picked up to her anxious best friend.

"He is fine!" Joanna exclaimed, sounding very delighted.

"Little rice ball, make sure to stay far away from the iron bars. You will get harmed if you touch them," Joanna shouted so that Anthony would hear her voice wherever he was.

Even though she didn't see him, the assurance that Audrey would never lie to her saw Joanna through the tiresome night of her life.
