Chapter 309: Nightmare
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."
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.
