The interrogation

Compared to the rest of those who died, the person he hated the most was Maia Black, if he found out that she was unscathed, it would make him easier to interrogate. An enraged mind was an open tongue.

"Alive? Alive? I don't believe you." Those green eyes flashed with anger and hate so intense that the tips turned red. "I don't believe you." His hands and feet were bound with a special handcuff and he could not move, much less escape. He gritted his teeth as if he were a cornered animal before he paused as if remembering something and then a light smile appeared on his face.

Had he gone mad? No. So why was he smiling? Is there something that they did not know? Arlen had a very bad feeling but he was not sure why? He knew the Heroes Association more than most and he knew that Lucas would not be able to escape this chain so why did he have this feeling that he was the cornered one instead?
