Chapter 127: Beaten and Broken

[NIKITA]

"Hey Rael, it's past midnight, you know the policy on late night video cal—" Nikita said when he picked Rael's video call, but he didn't get to finish his sentence because what the fuck was he supposed to say to what he was seeing?

Maybe this was a mistake.

Maybe this was a prank, but it wasn't funny. He didn't like the joke whatsoever, and Rael needed to stop it.

It was three o'clock in the morning, and everyone had already gone to bed. They had all slept at the Pavlenko estate, and given that accommodations wanted an issue, they had all settled in. Nikita, however, had not been able to sleep.

He had been thinking of Yuri and the ways to get to know whether his brother was alive or not. However, what he was seeing on that screen in his bedroom, was something else. Rael looked like she had been bulldozed and had barely survived the destruction.
