Half of their childhood was ripped from them. Taken at a young age they didn't know anything about the world they were brought into.
But at least they had each other

One thing I had mastered was running in heels. I spent a lot of my everyday life wearing them and in turn, I had accomplished a talent that was very valuable in my line of work.
Xander and I had unwillingly split up but we needed to cover as much ground as possible.
Seconds after the lights were off the doors locked remotely, Xander and I had to get out as quickly as possible but also undetected. It was a struggle but we made it. Now I was running around the deserted halls like a damn runaway princess since I was clad in a fancy ball gown.
My Cinderella moment though was interrupted by the chatter coming through my earpiece.
"How far are you Ella?" Tessa asks.
"One more minute." I head through the halls as quickly as I can, the faster we could get through this the higher chance of us succeeding. I pull out my phone from the garter on my thigh when I stop at a door, my finger type quickly and with accuracy a code to use to get through the door, I had it memorised by now so it wouldn't fail but I couldn't have done it remotely, the reason why I was here tonight.
I was the only person with the skillset, hacking was my forte and I had developed it to such a standard that no one else could fill my position.
"What's the hold-up, Ella?" Levin asks when I was taking longer than they thought I would.
"You all seem to forget I cannot spell," I mutter, the beep sounds and I open the door. Julian, Demetrius and Leandro enter the room. The four of us raced down the hall to the back of the stage.
Xander was waiting with Lorenzo, Kaeso and Ahmed, the three of them dressed in server uniforms. They had already started untying the girls and helping them out the door into a line so we could get them out of there seamlessly.
The eight of us work seamlessly, we pass out hoodies so they are all covered and warm to the now-dropping temperature. My team works to get the girls ready to go out and the other team works on getting the girls to the transportation.
"Guys we have an issue," Molly announces, the four siblings of the sigma team had been alerting us of any changes and so far all the criminals had been locked in the ballrooms.
The FBI should have already started raiding and locking up all those disgusting humans.
"What is it now?" Julian asks hints of panic, exhaustion and desperation mixed in his tone.
"The Nox's left the room," Elin informed us, her voice grim. "They're heading your way and they are all armed.
I surveyed the room, there were still over a dozen girls in there. I couldn't traumatise them more, so after helping the last girl I stood up and headed to the door.
"I'll handle them," I announce.
"Auriella." Xander's sharp voice sounds. "Not by yourself."
I pause by the door and look back at him, he was helping a teenage girl about our age. I caught his eyes and there was unadulterated rampant terror and fear in them. I smiled at him and instantly his eyes softened but the panic was still there.
