She stammered trying to get the words out. Charlie cut her off with a soft voice.
“Look, just go home and forget about this OK? Pretend it’s a bad dream. Whatever it takes, just get out of here.” He turned and left. This time she did not stop him.
Natalia climbed off the cage, gingerly stepping to the floor. She hurt everywhere from puncture holes. She tried not to look at Lucas, but it was the first thing she looked at. There was a large ragged hole where his stomach had been. Intestines and organs protruded from the open wound. Some blood spurted from an open vein and Natalia fainted to the floor.
