Chapter 10: Chapter 8

Crystal's POV

"Let me go. Let me go!"

I screamed in obscurity as the foggy devil laughed watching me writhing in pain. My entire body quacked with each blow of a whip that splits open the flesh. I fought hard against those shackles but they were too heavy to move, digging in the bruised flesh, leaving my body numb.

"Let me go. Valentine! Valentine!" I screamed for my husband to come for my rescue. Maybe he could hear me and chase this darkness away. My entire being roared in burning pain and head throbbed. The panic was so hard for me to lose control over the bladder.

"Crystal." A frantic voice of Valentine echoed in my ears making my dying struggles resurface once again.

"Valentine," I called back. He was close, I can feel it.

"Crystal. Open your eyes, baby. I am here. I am here." He said again from behind making me frown. My eyes rolled around the cell, sinking in darkness searching for him.
