*****Kat’s POV*****
“What are you doing here?” I heard Erika's voice the moment we heard footsteps descending down the staircase.
We all turned to see the look on her face, one that showed she wasn't a bit happy seeing Gridshade here in the packhouse again.
Gridshade stood up to his feet and without even acknowledging Erika's presence, he went ahead to ask, “Where is Jace?”
Erika smirked and descended to the last step.
“What do you want?”
“Where is Jace, he is the only one I came to see.” Erika raised a brow and smiled.
“Look, Gridshade. Just because you're close to Jace doesn't give you the right to come here and ask for him. Tell me what you want from Jace.”
Finally, Gridshade put aside his ego and walked forward to where Erika stood.
“Take a look at this photos.” He said and as he showed her another set of photos on his phone. There was also a video I guess, because I heard voices coming from the phone. Photos couldn't talk at least.
Erika shut her eyes and opened them as if the sight was horrific, then she looked up at I and Paula who kept watching her expectantly.
“Come over, girls.” She finally called and we both made our way towards her. She turned the phone to show us the video and there was saw Tasyra being tied to a chair in what seemed like an interrogation room.
A black cloth was used to cover her face as they dumped what seemed like Coldwater on her face.
I winced internally at the pains that must have assaulted her.
That was a deadly torture out there. That was wasn't enough, they also soaked her with lots of water and electrocuted her, but the voltage seemed low. They were torturing Tasyra that bad, and I couldn't tell the feeling I felt.
I felt bad for her and wouldn't want her to experience such.
I turned to look at Gridshade and saw a tear slip from his eyes as he watched his beloved daughter been tortured like a lowly animal.
“This is bad, they might kill her.” Paula voiced out and everyone nodded in agreement.
We turned to Rika who stood there quietly as if calculating something.
“We’ll save her.” She announced and we all let out sighs of relief. Gridshade’s face lit up as he asked again, “I need to tell Jace about it so that he c_”
“We're not telling Jace anything.” Erika suddenly cut him shut. “None of you will tell Jace a thing about all these.”
“Why?” Gridshade asked before any other person could ask. His gaze had already darkened as if a storm was coming.
“Jace just recovered and I can't let him get involved in anything that would cost his health again.” She glared at him as she said those words.
