Aella's heart pounded wildly in her chest as she stuck her head out from the pillar to check if anyone was heading this way.
A frown came onto her face as she tried her best to peer through the darkness but she saw nothing.
That was weird. She had thought she saw someone or heard something.
What she wasn't expecting was for it to come from behind.
"You do know I can see you, right?" the familiar cold voice of Bane came through the silence.
"Argh!!" Aella yelped as she turned around with widened eyes.
Her hands were on her mouth as she saw the golden orbs blazing like a candle in the darkness. Her wide eyes blinked frantically.
She could barely make out the tall silhouette which was looking down at her with his arms behind his back.
She couldn't guess but he definitely didn't look happy from what she saw. Which captor would be joyful that their captive tried to escape?
