Felix kicks the door in with his foot, causing it to fall over.
“Okay … guess that’s an answer,” I say.
“Go,” he growls at us.
Kai nods and heads inside with Nathan and Caleb, so I follow them into the grimy building.
There are rows and rows of halls, each leading to more halls, all filled with doors. In the back is a giant hall, where half the floor is lined with chairs, and in the far back is a stage.
“What the fuck is that for?” Milo asks.
“Auctions,” Penelope answers.
“I don’t see the valuables.”
Felix knocks on the doors, and one girl screams.
“They don’t sell things,” Alistair says. “They sellpeople.”
A chill runs up and down my spine.
What if they’ve sold her already? I’ll never forgive myself.
“We should hurry,” Kai grits.
“Who’s there?” a voice in the back yells.
BANG!
“Fuck,” I hiss as the bullet narrowly misses me and lodges into the wall.
“They found us,” Kai says.
I pull out my gun as adrenaline rushes through my body.
I’m fucking ready to murder these sons of bitches for daring to take her.
“Lana!” I scream. “We’re coming!”

Lana
I’m still so woozyfrom the drugs I can’t see straight, and I don’t know where I am or what I’m supposed to feel like. All I know is that I can barely stay awake.
How long have I been here?
It feels like ages.
I blink a couple of times, trying to focus, but my vision is blurry. My wrists and ankles burn into the metal, the upright position straining my body to its limit. I don’t know if I can hold on much longer.
Tears well up in my eyes, but I push them away.
Don’t let those fuckers see you cry.
I know they’re watching. There must be cameras everywhere, even in this tiny cell.
My lungs drag in a breath, but it doesn’t help calm my raging soul.
