Divergent Love

Chapter 18

Charlottes POV

I've been sitting here in my cell for at least a week, there is no clock on the white walls nor any windows. I am trapped in this room with a small camera as my only friend. Food is delivered to me under a door and new clothes too, white loose trousers and a long sleeved white baggy cotton shirt is what I wear today. No one has spoken to me. No one has seen me. But suddenly the door opens and I brush away my tears and stand up.

"Follow me" says the scientist I saw on the first day. Two erudite security members stand on either side of me and follow the scientist. We go through a series of identical corridors and we end up in a small science lab with a simulation looking dentist type chair in the middle of the room. Around the edges, there is desks full of experimental equipment.

"Sit on the chair," says the scientist. I walk and sit on the chair as he asked and look at him. "My name is Caleb Prior and Jeanine Matthews Erudites leader has asked me to run the divergent project."

"Why do you look so familiar?" I ask him.

"I do not know, I wouldn't be asking such illogical questions when your about to be put through pain, Charlotte." He says stearnly, I jump at the word pain.

"Pain?" I ask shyly.

"We will be scanning your brain, putting you through simulation after simulation until we can find out what the divergents are." He says.

"But we know what they are, at least I do anyway." I say.

"If your such a know it all why didn't you join erudite?" He asks harshly.

"I didn't want to choose dauntless I guess I would have stayed in abnegation if it was for my ex boyfriend who is the father of my child."

"Lift up your top." He say edging towards me. I hesitate and cover my baby bump.

"Why, don't you dare hurt my child!" I whisper.

"I'm not going to hurt it, I need to scan it. It's kind of good that it was you I guess." He laughs. "Your child will grow up here and we will see if they are also divergent. I hope you don't mind that after you die, after your child is born that they will be used as a test subject here, never to leave, never to be aloud in the faction system because there will be no record of them, as your dauntless leaders faked your death and held a fake funeral. I hope you don't mind?"

I'm speechless, they first send me to my death and tell my friends and faction that I died differently? This is ridiculous.

I let caleb and his team of scientist begin to experiment on me. I'm only 16 years old and I'm pregnant and I will die in 5 months. I have 5 months to live and be put through the torture. If I'm going to die anyway I wish it was sooner, instead of sitting alone in pain.

I miss Noah mostly. He's the only one I miss.
