Chapter 309
From the cage, Anastasia saw a body from the pile move. Hope filled her heart when she noticed it was Angelina. The girl wasn’t completely dead.
“Stop! Angelina is alive!!” She yelled, gaining Samantha’s attention.
The woman merely scoffed before releasing the lighter, watching as it tumbled onto the pile of bodies. In an instant, flames erupted, licking up the heap and casting an eerie glow that danced across her face.
Anastasia watched as the bodies of the girls were set ablaze. She thrashed. “Angelina is alive!!” She screamed but Samantha didn’t do anything to stop the fire. Instead, she instructed her men to pour more fuel to the flame, crushing Anastasia’s hope of saving Angelina.
Angelina’s hand which was a little raised, asking for help fell as fire consumed her.
“Angelina was alive Anastasia said timidly as her tears flew uncontrollably.
The men cheered, clapping each other’s hands as they drank from their glasses as if they achieved a very special goal in life.
“Now,” Samantha started after ignoring Anastasia’s pleas to stop the fire. “The girls that survived, all of you should go get cleaned. I’m only giving you thirty minutes to do that. After that, your future masters will come and pick the ones they like p>
The girls nodded in understanding as they limped and hopped out of there, heading to the main house.
Anastasia met Avery’s eyes. She held it until the girl disappeared without saying a word to her, and Anastasia couldn’t help but feel that the girl was never going to help her out. She’d been tricked.
That thought alone washed away the little hope she had about escaping. Thinking she could trust Avery with her escape only made her feel like a desperate fool in need of freedom. Now, that freedom was taken from her and she still doesn’t know what Samantha had in mind to do to her.
Then she saw Xander—her supposed husband’s twin walking towards her. Now that Elizabeth, the only girl who knew her true identity was dead, Anastasia had no idea how she was going to know more about herself.
“You look disappointed,” he mocked. He stretched out his hand into the cage and wiped off her tears which caused Anastasia to stiffen in shock. “Are you sad because your little friends died?” He asked, his eyes filled with fake concern that tempted Anastasia to bite off his finger that was resting on her face. “You should know by now that friendships don’t last long p>
“What did Xavier do to you p>
Anastasia’s question completely caught him off guard. He immediately retracted his hand off her face as he glared at her with rage.
“Julian said Xavier betrayed you. How did that happen? What did he do and why am I the one paying for his crimes?” She questioned.
Xander’s dark eyes darkened the more she opened her mouth to speak. “That husband of yours killed someone I loved,” he replied. “Someone I hold dear to me. He murdered her in cold blood. And since you’re the one he holds dear to his heart, it’s only fair I get my revenge on him through you, don’t you think p>
Anastasia couldn’t help but start despising this husband of hers. She could see the hurt in his eyes before he blinked it away like it wasn’t just there.
“You’re a monster p>
“Nothing you call me will change a thing. Though, I’ll have to hand it to you for trying to escape.” A smirk stretched on his lips. “You don’t have to worry, I’m letting your husband know everything that happens to you here p>
Then he left without giving her a chance to say anything anymore.
The girls came back after getting cleaned and the selection started.
Anastasia tore her gaze from them, deciding to focus on her thoughts. Without a doubt, Samantha was going to get punished severely. But after that, she had no idea what she would do next.
Certainly, security would only tighten around the house, making it impossible for her so any other girls wouldn’t get the idea of wanting to escape again.
Anastasia still wanted to know why Avery had tricked her. If she didn’t want to help her escape, then she shouldn’t have suggested it in the first place.
Despite all that, Anastasia still felt like a fool. She’d only wanted to be free from these walls that were filled with nothing but torture.
Anastasia decided to think of how to escape from there, and this time with no one writing involved.
But the noise that came from where the girls were getting selected interrupted her thoughts.
On top of the laps of some men were the girls they’d picked, and the ones standing were the ones that hadn’t been picked yet.
Avery was one of them.
As if sensing Anastasia’s gaze on her, the creepy girl turned to look at Anastasia, her usual faint skin crawling smile on her lips.
“I want to announce something real quick,” Samantha suddenly said, gaining everyone’s attention to herself. “As you’ll already know we have a girl who has attempted to run away from here, I already have the best punishment for her p>
Fear gripped Anastasia’s heart, as she forced herself to gulp down her saliva. She’d thought Samantha would only punish her after the event was over. But now, she was saying it in front of everyone.
“Anastasia had tried to run away from here, and I will now bestow my punishment upon her p>
The hunters clapped like puppets, eager to know what Samantha was going to say next.
“Fifteen men, including all of you She pointed to the hunters who’d already picked their girls. will all get to have your way with her tonight p>
If only it was possible for someone’s heart to physically leap out of someone’s chest, Anastasia would have already been floating in mid-air by now.
“What are you saying, Samantha?” Mr. Steven asked.
Samantha smiled at him.
“What I’m saying is that fifteen men can go ahead and have their way with her tonight. And you can think of it as a gift from me p>
