Axel
"Son of a bitch"
"Axel"
I heard hushed voices, cutting through as my senses started coming alive.
"For fucks sake, Axel" I heard that sharp voice again. I knew who this was.
"Donovan?" I squeezed my eyes trying to adjust to the dark room and the pounding headache.
"Yes. Donovan. What the fuck?" he spat.
"Good to see you too brother" I smirked, still dizzy from my little ambush.
"I don't think he can return that compliment" Ezra's smug voice rang somewhere beside me.
As my eyes began adjusting , I could see them. Both of them, chained down to their chairs. I instinctively looked down at my own hands that were also tied down like theirs, but this isn't what concerned me.
"Where is Sage?"
"Ezra's witch snapped her neck" Donovan rolled his eyes.
"My witch? Are you ki…" Ezra was glaring at him "They've got her in the basement" he glanced at me.
"Why?" my heart began pounding. My mind flooded with every worst case scenario possible and I began trying to tug on my chains.
"I don't know" Ezra spat out in annoyance "How are you this stupid Axel? How did you get yourself taken?"
"Well, forgive me for being concerned about my brother" I shot back. I can't tell them anything right now. They'll find out soon enough.
"Only your brother?" I heard a low female voice followed by slow footsteps.
"She's back" Ezra mumbled under his breath.
"I don't think Sage would be happy to hear that" the woman took a step towards me.
"She'll be happy when she drinks you dry" Donovan chimed in.
She's probably the one that snapped her neck then. I looked the witch up and down. Just being in her presence made me want to rip her throat out right now.
"You missed me, Sugar?" Ezra glared at her. His furious expression a complete contrast to his tone.
"I did, but I'm not here for you" she smirked back at him and turned in my direction "I've come to check up on our newest addition"
"Someone stake me" I heard Donovan whisper.
I didn't know whether to be furious or outright confused. What the hell was going on here? Sage was chained up in some basement. Donovan was acting like a moody teen. Ezra, talking up a witch. Clearly I missed out on alot.
"Why is Sage in the basement?" I growled. I wanted to see her. I needed to know she was alright.
"I'd take you down there, but I don't want another apocalypse yet" she chuckled like a maniac.
"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" came from Donovan.
She didn't respond, just gave us a smile before turning on her heel and leaving us alone.
"I swear, if Sage doesn't kill her first,I'm going to " Ezra hissed out through clenched teeth.
"What the hell happened here?" I was panicking. I knew we had a plan. I knew it was going to come together. But I needed to see her.
