It was morning . The sun shone from the little window inside the cell . The people inside the prison are now all awake . But, since there is nothing to do inside, some just continued sleeping while others just stared blankly in the s.p.a.ce .
Nicolas opened his eyes . His body felt numb and aching, since his hands were still tied since last night adding up that he was also beaten . It seems the terrorist were afraid of him escaping . Nicolas check if he has any weapons still left in him . And, as what he has expected, none were left behind, all of his weapons were confiscated .
"Of course, what would I expect, they would confiscate everything . If they left behind a single gun with me that would be laughable" . Nicolas thought . "But, atleast, they still left behind my crux necklace and my combat shoes" .
The crux necklace is something that his mother gave him . It is small and has a simple design so probably the terrorist thought that it was something of no value but what they do not know is that, it has a gps tracker inside for his father to know his current location .
As for the combat shoes, since they do not know what will happen to him at anytime, he customized his shoes so that it could have a secret compartment in its sole for him to hid his knife .
He saw Leila who is in another cell beside him . Right now, he doesn"t know how to approach her after what he did last night, but he only wants to save her so he did that . He couldn"t act rashly last night so he didn"t fight back or else it would be disastrous .
"*sigh* but I must talk to her atleast even if she"ll curse me, I can"t stand this guilty feeling inside me right now" . Nicolas thought then slowly walk towards the left side of his cell . "Leila" . He first softly called . "Leila, please, talk to me" . He called again as he didn"t get any reaction from her at first .
Then, Leila turned to him . "What do you want sir?" . She flatly asked . Nicolas seeing her look at him coldly, just grit his teeth inside then, "I know that you are angry with me for what I did last night, but I genuinely just wants to save you, at that time there seems to be no other way as I couldn"t just fight them or else your life wouldn"t be spared . So, please! forgive me" . Nicolas plead softly to her .
Leila seeing that her commander which is known for being cold and always has a stern face plead to her softly, somewhat felt her heart warmed . "*sigh* what else can I say, it already happened, its not like he does it for his own pleasure" . Leila thought in her heart .
"It"s fine sir, let"s just forget what happened last night and moved on with our lives . Right now, we need to find a way to get out of this h.e.l.l" .
"You"re right, we"ll talk about this after we get out of this h.e.l.l" . Nicolas said not heeding what she first said as he doesn"t approve it to just moved on with their lives . "Hmp! do you think I"ll just let you go? after this h.e.l.l I"ll marry you . " Nicolas thought in his mind .
After a few moments, the door of the prison opens and two women came in . It seems they are a slave inside the fortress . They carried weave baskets filled with bread and they also carried a jug of water . They gave each hostages two peaces of bread and a cup of water . Since Nicolas and Leila still has their hands tied, the guards inside the prison untied their rope . They ate their bread and there"s nothing else left to do after .
But, by ten in the morning the prison door opens again and the person who came is Connard .
"h.e.l.lo Nicolas! Good morning! Do you miss me? Hahaha!" . Connard said it in a friendly tone but his eyes tell otherwise . Nicolas know that this guy is scheming something evil again . And as what he expected, he and Leila were taken out inside their cell and were dragged towards the interrogation room, again .
