TWO HOURS. Two hours had passed, and this was the time that Harry and Cassia were supposed to hang out. She had arrived at the planned destination where they were supposed to meet up, but surprised — not? He wasn't there.
As much as she didn't want to, she had double — tripled—texted him. But there was no answer from the guy who stole her heart, and she just wanted to convince herself that maybe he got caught up doing something.
In reality, he did get caught up, just not doing something exactly.
"Who the hell are you?" The boys had regained consciousness from their slumber, tied in vines. "What do you want from us?"
Elliot tried to move as much as he could from the high place, but at the same time, he didn't want to risk it.
A figure softly paced in front of them, with no worry in the world. Their cloak flowed behind their body after every wind their pace created. The hood of the material didn't allow the two tied-up males to see who was behind it.
"It's not you exactly who I want. It's who you are close to, that I want." From the voice, Elliot and Harry were able to tell it was a female.
"Who are you talking about?" The son of Rapunzel was in charge of doing the questions, as for Harry, he was still drugged from whatever spell he was under.
"I'm sure you know who I'm talking about. Your little friend. The brunette with brown eyes." It was a taunting tone, slow and evil.
And in that moment, with his blood running cold and down to the tip of his body, it hit Elliot. He knew exactly who she was talking about. "Cassia."
Cassia thought it was better that she leave the spot and ask her friends if they had seen the boy instead. Her first option, Elliot. But when the boy didn't answer, she thought maybe both of them were together.
So she texted him and called, but there was no answer. It was strange, really, Elliot was always glued to his phone.
"Evie!" Coming across the girl, she caught sight of Mal also being with her. "Have you both seen the guys? I've called them both but they haven't answered my calls."
Mal and Evie shared looks, an attempt to recall if any had seen the boys, or waiting for one to speak.
"No, I haven't seen them since school." Evie furrowed her brows glancing at the brunette whose eyes were now on Mal. It only made the girl follow, "No, me neither."
