Rhys and Helion stayed with Cassian on the map for over an hour as they studied every spot possible.

"Where the hell can she be?" Helion groaned, "we looked everywhere"

"She could be under the manor," Lucien said and Feyre looked at him confused, "Tamlin had this room, no one was allowed to enter and if they did, it was punishable by death"

"You really took your sweet time with this information," Cassian said sarcastically and Lucien shrugged, not caring one bit.

"We'll look there first," Helion said, he was already dressed in his own Day Court leathers, "Are you guys coming?"

"Yes, Let's go," Rhysand said, his dress shirt swaying as he took hold of Feyre's hand, "Mor, stay here and keep an eye on Tamlin, Feyre, you're with me, if she's been abused by a man, she wouldn't trust us"

"She would trust me" Helion argued.

"No, she would need time," Feyre said, Cassian made us form a circle and Feyre winnowed us away.

The manor looked beautiful in front of us, albeit a little destroyed from Tamlin's irresponsibleness, the spring court was beautiful but its leader wasn't and he wasn't bright either.

Rhys squeezed Feyre's hand as she took a deep breath, Helion entered the manor uninterrupted, he looked back at Lucien expectantly, Lucien nodded and led him to the basement, we all followed silently, "It's supposed to be here," Lucien said.

Screams and cries filled the room suddenly, Helion looked crazed touching every stone in the wall to find an entrance, "Zaria!"

"Helion" A voice wheezed, no stronger than a breath.

"Azriel, use your shadows to find an entrance," Cassian said and I nodded scattering them all around, It's a spell, Shadowsinger and there are wards.

"It's a spell and there are wards, Helion" I recited back and he nodded, focusing his energy on the wall as Rhys worked on the wards, the wall crumbled under his touch, and it opened to a room, but no one was in it.

"Where is she?" Rhys asked looking around carefully.

I scattered my shadows again, and they reported back that something was moving in the walls, "There's something in the walls,"  I said carefully and Cassian banged his fist on one, it shattered completely revealing a milky white thigh.

"Get me out! Get me out!" A voice cried out.

Helion and Rhys instantly started taking brick and brick out, I had my shadows ensure everything before I helped them. "Get it off, Get the mask off! Tamlin, get it off" Helion looked enraged, crazed with feral rage.

Dirty copper hair welcomed us as the final brick fell down, a girl was chained from her hands and legs to the walls, her face was unrecognizable under the iron mask on her face, she looked frantically at us, She's terrified, Shadowsinger.
