"There was a bruise on his face. Do you think they punished him for helping you out of the dungeon?" Melanie questioned Conner, and he pursed his lips.
"I don't know… And I don't know why, but it feels like this is not the end. I mean, they will continue to keep a close watch on us. And it isn't like I tried to kill any of them," Conner bitterly said. All he had done was inquire and nothing more.
