Alone but Together

Chapter 7 Keefe

Keefe woke up to a haunted laughter. Then his memories came flooding back.

Sophie, the flight, and the black cloaked figures.

"So," someone said but Keefe didn't know who or where, "you're awake. Stop pretending I know you are."

"I already tried to talk to your little girlfriend. She didn't seem to want to cooperate, so maybe you will. Answer me, and I won't harm her," the voice threatened.

"Don't touch her," he rasped, but his voice felt like it was being used as an eraser a million times.

Which was a mistake. 

"Just answer my questions. I only know one thing and we certainly cannot have you and Sophie heal Alden," he said.

"You are worse than an ogre," Keefe screamed.

Something hot slapped him on the face, and a cloth was put over his mouth as the drugs pulled him back into the darkness.
