Skye's the Limit |Book 1 In 'Skye Adventures' Series|

Chapter 46: Anger

♠♠♠♠♠♠

I don't know where I am, or what is going on.

My eyes are so heavy I can't even open them.

I hear Ward's voice.

And... Mike's.

"You should be thanking me. I saved your ass."

"You didn't save my ass. You turned it into a public spectacle."

"You let her get one over on you. That's exactly what Garrett was afraid of."

"And Garrett told you to stay out of sight."

"He ordered me to shadow you."

I almost cried out as my eyes finally open, revealing blinding white light.

 "He knew you had a soft spot for Skye and she might take advantage of it."

I blink once, twice, and finally, I can see where I am.

The Bus.

In the cargo hold.

"Well, he was wrong. We have her."

I force myself to look where the voices are coming from in front of me.

I scowl as a pissed Ward and a calm Mike stand facing each other.

"And once she gives us a location, we'll be off." Ward says.

"Yeah, that's not gonna happen." I spit, surprising myself.

"Take a walk. I can handle this." Ward orders Mike.

"Can you? You haven't so far." He snaps, but then hesitates cocking his head.

Slowly he turns to Ward, a frown playing on his lips.

"Garret says you have 5 minutes."

I frown as he walks off leaving me with this psycho son of a bitch.

I stand up hastily as Ward stalks towards me.

He holds his arms out, what? Is he expecting a HUG?

I charge at him without really processing anything.

"You PSYCHO! YOU SON OF A BITCH!" I scream slamming my fists against him, temporarily stunning him. "HOW COULD YOU? YOU LITTLE SHIT!"

At this point, tears are streaming down my face, and I can't tell the difference between the figure in front of me and the wall.

"Skye, CALM down." Ward hisses to me.

I shake my head and try to punch him, but without effort he pins me against the metal spiral stair case, pulling out handcuffs.

"HOW COULD YOU?" I scream at him. "WHY YOU LITTLE-

"SHUT UP." Ward tells me, voice raised, an iciness in it I've never heard from him before. "You can't GUILT trip me into anything, if that's what you're trying to do, and I DON'T CARE how much you insult me, I don't feel remorseful." He spits. "Now tell me how to decode the hardrive!!"

I shake my head, jiggling my now cuffed hand.

"NEVER." I cry at him. "NEVER."

Ward scowls at me, and runs a hand through his hair.

"Garret will torture you." He says. "He doesn't care that you're a CHILD. He will get what he wants."

I sneer at him.

"Well this CHILD is smarter than you and that asshole combined!"

Ward slams his fists against the lab door, causing me to jump.
