The Lady of Bolton Hill (2011)
“Would they kill her once they realized she was awake? She had been listening for any clue of their intentions, but all she heard was Bane discussing navigation routes and tidal schedules. She could make no sense of the discussion, and that left her mind to wander. She wished Daniel were here. What she wouldn’t give to feel his arms around her and listen to the confident tones in his voice. Whenever she had been timid or afraid, he could always tease her out of it.
A lump formed in the back ...of her throat. She would probably never see Daniel again. Clara felt the terror begin in her spine and work its way up to her throat. Begging for mercy was useless with this boy, for he was utterly, entirely without a conscience. Her wrists were bound and she lay on the floor of an abandoned warehouse, she was still sluggish from the opium, and she was surrounded by henchmen who were at the command of an insane adolescent. She would never escape this place alive.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.MoreLess
