Chapter 112: Tied and Bound

I came to and immediately realized I was in motion. I was moving fast, bumping around all over the place and sliding back and forth.

I was lying on my side. My ankles were bound, my wrists tied behind my back, and a thick gag was stuck in my mouth.

Once I gained my bearings, I realized I was in the back of a Jeep. Wind rushed around me. It must have had the doors and windows removed, the way we were bumping all over the place.

We were probably off-road. Jeeps were good for that.

Voices in the front seat caught my attention.

I rolled over, grunting as my wrist twisted uncomfortably. I saw Aries in the front passenger seat. Someone I’d never seen before was driving.

They were talking about Hestia and Jared. I strained my ears to listen to what they were saying.

“She’s just a means to an end. It is Jared that Hestia is really after,” Aries said.

“What does Hestia want with him?” the driver asked.
