"Shit..." ‘When our car got hit, | could still hear Robin cursing through gritted teeth.
There was a warm sensation on my face, and as | lifted my head, | caught sight of Colin's face.
He was shielding me, holding me tight, blood from his forehead trickling down his chin and dripping onto my face.
"Colin..." He might have been out of it because of the drugs, his consciousness blurred.
"Robin, they had more people!" The voice seemed distant, Finn's anxious tone reaching my ears.
A dozen guys jumped out of the van that rammed us, and it was clear that they were gunning for Colin and me.
"Colin..." Panic set in, and | called out Colin's name with a trembling voice.
"Bang!" The crumpled car door was yanked open with brute force, trapping Finn and Robin, leaving them unable to escape.

Colin and | were dragged out of the car, my vision blurring with the blood in my eyes.
"Colin..." Suddenly, someone struck me from behind, a loud ringing filled my ears, and my consciousness started to slip away.
"Colin..." When | came to, my head was pounding with pain. | shouted Colin's name, but couldn't make out anything in the dimness.
"Click." Abruptly, the warehouse lights flickered on.
| saw the figure walking in.
It was Julian Langley of all people.
Well, well... looks like he had been sprung from the slammer.
Henry must've pulled some strings.
Julian was notorious for holding grudges, and | bet he had been stewing, just waiting for his chance to lash out.
My head was killing me, and | anxiously scanned my surroundings.
The bastard had tied my hands and feet; there was no chance of escape now.
"Bring in the man," Julian commanded with a steely voice, gripping my chin.
Behind him, they dragged in Colin, covered in blood, and threw him to the side. He must still have been under the influence of the drugs, still unconscious.
"Julian!" | screamed uncontrollably, desperate to check on Colin.
"Such a pity..." Julian yanked my hair, his laugh bordering on
hysterical. "To fall for a madman, truly a waste." "Julian! This is outright kidnapping..." Julian slapped me hard, and | was thrown to the ground. The world went dark, and my ears started to ring again.
"Phoebe..." They revived Colin with a splash of cold water, and he called out my name.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKnowing Colin was drugged and injured, they didn't bother to tie him up. Instead, they just pressed his head to the ground.
"Let him go." | screamed in panic, praying Robin and Finn would find us soon.
Even if Julian had gone off the deep end, he wouldn't dare strike at the cops. Robin and Finn had to find this place.
"Caleb, you've been playing a deep game, haven't you?" Julian sneered, picking up a bat from the floor and striking Colin's back with it. "Hooking up with Eric behind the scenes? Draining the Langley family dry, taking control for yourself... and you had the guts to plant a mole by my side, betraying me!" Julian landed another blow on Colin.
"I'm telling you, if you push me too far, if | can't live, neither will you!" Julian was beyond reason now.
"Stop it! Let him go!" | couldn't control my tears, pinned to the ground.
Colin was already hurt, and if this continued, he might not survive.
Colin spat out blood, his gaze on Julian icy cold.
"Colin..." | cried out his name.
He struggled with all his might but lacked the strength to break free for now. He looked at me with a mix of pain and determination, clenching his fists hard, willing his strength to return.
"Thought you were tough, huh? Come on, show me some of that swagger now, let me see it," Julian flicked his cigarette away and kicked Colin viciously.
