Chapter 98

******Kat's POV******

Thankfully, Jace came early to hold Erika back from Killing those guards. The Angry Erika was not one to be trifled with when annoyed.

We watched as Jace led her slowly out of the dungeon and into the living room. Since Jace's health wasn't yet back to being stable, he kept limping as he helped Erika take a seat, pulling her into his arms for a hug.

"You should go back to the room and rest, you're still not alright." I heard her say to him and he nodded.

"I'll go back once I'm sure that you're fine." He replied. How sweet of him.

After a while of staying silent without a word from anyone, Jace pulled away and asked, "what exactly happened?"

I turned to Erika, waiting for her to tell him the truth of the letter and photos attached. But Erika did nothing of such.

"It's Melisse, she escaped." Erika simply said without talking about the distraction. "What? Melisse escaped?" Jace asked in shock and Erika nodded.

"But how is that even possible? How did she escape?" Jace questioned again and Erika sighed.

"It's a long story, but don't worry I'll sort it out. Kat, help Jace back to his room, the doctor said he needs lots of rest." Erika said and turned to look at me.

I raised a brow slightly, why was she not telling Jace the truth?

I nodded and walked upto Jace, he didn't object and just followed me as I took him back to the room upstairs. Once we were in his room, Jace suddenly clicked the door shut and his earlier pained expression vanished to a more serious one. "Kat, tell me the truth. What happened and how did Melisse escape?"
