Life or death

At that bleak moment, Nina didn't know how she was going to get out of this place; Even if Alonso takes her with him, Theodore will come to the rescue but she shouldn't let him kill her. All that matters now is to stay alive. 

So she controlled all her anger and detached herself from her fear. She didn't speak a word and stood there calm which made Alonso suspect she'd lied to him. If it was normal people, they would beg him to let them go but she's standing there like a stone.

"Alonso, I think they were from the royal family. This carriage is from the palace," Paul said, after going through their stuff and analyzing the carriage. "It's used to carry soldiers, I have seen it," 

That got Alonso's interest. He wanted to know more about them, so he asked Nina, "Who are you?" 

She didn't utter a word and kept looking down. 

"Didn't you hear me?" he clenched his teeth.
