Towards evening I heard a slight knock on the door. Scrambling toward the door, I grabbed the handle.
“Anyone there? Please unlock the door!” I called out.
I heard silence for a while before Lily’s malicious voice rang out.
“Oh sweet Faye, you've been locked up where you deserve,” she mocked.
I sighed, “What do you want? Are you done putting on a show?”
“Not quite,” she giggled, “I didn't know Gabriel loves me so much that he'd lock you up even though that’s your greatest fear.”
I gritted my teeth in anger. I wouldn't let her see me break.
“If you've got nothing to say then get out,” I snapped.
Lily chuckled, “Oh darling, I’m just starting. But for now I’ll let you enjoy.”
I heard her footsteps depart and I heaved a sigh of relief. Soon it was dark outside.
I touched my hair and I saw my hairpin.
“It’s better than nothing,” I mused.
A few seconds later and I haven't been able to unlock the door.
Suddenly I heard voices outside.
Two. Ian and Ace.
“Let’s teach her a lesson,” Ian said.
“Yes,” Ace giggled excitedly.
A few seconds later, a scream ripped from my throat as I stared at the floor crawling with spiders and bees.
They had thrown in a beehive from the small window at the back.
