Scotland, a beautiful yet mysterious place. The air was cold, making every puff of air exhaled from your mouth, create a faint cloud of smoke. Everything felt out of place, it felt deserted since the only thing that could be seen were the ruins of the cathedral. This was until the sounds of explosions woke you up from your deep slumber. Your body quickly jolted from the sudden sound. Your hand quickly reached over to your chest, placing it on your heart. 

As you quickly looked around the empty plane seats, a cold breeze traveled through your entire body, making you shiver. "My god, not only am I gonna die from a heart attack, but also hypothermia." A sigh left your lips while your hands made their way to lift you from the now cold seat. "Now, where's everyone..." You asked yourself as you started walking over to the exit of the plane. Your body couldn't stop shivering since you still had the dress from the auction. At this point, you just wanted to be in your pajamas while drinking some hot cocoa as you lay on your couch comfortably. 

As you got lost in your thoughts, a tall bulky figure appeared in front of you, making you stumble and almost fall to the floor. "Hey! Watch where you're going..!" You groaned as you looked over at what made you almost hit your face with the ground. A man wearing all kinds of exploration equipment was standing in front of you, you kept staring at him waiting for an apology, but, he just grabbed a walkie-talkie from his pocket, uttering some words firmly. "Sir, she's already awake. What do I do with her?" The expression on your face turned from a frown to a blank stare, and that's when you heard another voice coming from the other side. "Alright, perfect. Bring her to me as soon as possible." And with that, the strange man proceeded to store the walkie-talkie and grab you by the arm quickly. Right after doing that, you tried to pull away from his grasp, but, of course, failing miserably, since he was way stronger than you. 

Exiting the plane, the feeling of coldness on your body felt much worse. The snow made it difficult for you to walk since you still had heels on, making it enter through your shoes. You squished your hand trying to deal with the pain, knowing this random person wouldn't handle you a nice and warm coat to cover yourself, how great is that?

---------------------------------------

As you got closer to the cathedral, the sound of explosions could be heard way clearer, making your ears ring in pain. It felt like you would pass out any minute, but that's when you stepped inside one of the cathedral's doors, which, surprisingly, was still intact. Your eyes keep staring at it for a few seconds before feeling a warm sensation on your shoulders. "My god, Y/n, you're freezing." You slowly turned around knowing who that voice belonged to. "Rafe..." You said as you grabbed the coat that was placed on your shoulders and held it close to your body as he just kept staring at you. "Sir, what should I-" Before that man could finish the sentence, Rafe's expression changed. "How about you leave us alone." His tone implied he was mad, and still, he said that while still staring at me, god, what did I get myself into... 

After a few seconds, the mercenary quickly sprinted out of the room, closing the door behind him. Once again, an explosion could be heard making you startle. Looking at Rafe with wide eyes, you watched as his expression grew colder. He was really mad. Trying not to annoy him more you made your way around him, not without looking at all the papers scattered across the floor. Most of them looked like maps. 

"Why are all these papers on the floor..."Still looking at the ground, you didn't notice you said those words out loud, making Rafe get closer to you. "...I don't think it's any of your business, Y/n."  You could smell his cologne from how close he was to you. "I do think it is, Rafe. After all, you were the one that got me in this situation." Rafe didn't say a word, but his stare was enough to tell you to stop talking instantly. "Oh, I know what's going on...I think the Drake brothers are already ahead of you, aren't t-"
