In the Blackthorn estate, Gabriel was dragged out of the cell he had been placed in. His body was weaker now to the point that he could not move a muscle. He could not put up a fight against the men holding onto him, which angered him.
He was the great hero who brought victory to the land. He was mistreated by the very people who should have been singing his praises.
Why hadn't anyone come to the estate looking for him? Xavier's home was the first place they should have looked when he did not show up for work.
Gabriel was taken out of the estate to a small room filled with small weapons like the dungeon.
Gabriel thought he was left for dead after the guards dropped him and walked out the door until he heard someone approach him. Looking up, Gabriel felt happy for the first time in days.
"Selene," Gabriel smiled, trying to lift his hand to Selene. He wanted to hold her hand and kiss her.
