Hwaaaag—

She could see the reflection of a large fire on a building far away. For the fire to shine on the spoon, the flames had to be huge.

‘What? What happened?’

Elena tried to observe her surroundings as much as she could.

Tatatatatak.

She heard people running around, and the image on the spoon was blurred as people moved about. With her sharply-trained ears, she also picked up the sound of someone shouting urgently.

“The Blood Assassins’ headquarters are under attack…get reinforcements…hurry!”

She couldn’t hear everything, but she caught enough to understand what was happening. Her eyes turned bright at the astonishing news.

‘The Blood Assassins are under attack? Inside Lunen?’

Elena did not know they worked for Paveluc. Batori was a spy that infiltrated Blaise mansion, and he had brought her as a hostage. That meant that the attackers at the cliff at the time were the Blood Assassins.

‘…I don’t know where I’m imprisoned, but it’s not too far from that Blood Assassins building.’

At that same moment, another realization struck her. If someone was invading Lunen, it was likely because they were rescuing Elena. She turned towards the building with longing eyes.

“Caril…”

She had hoped that he was desperately searching for her, but now that she saw this with her own eyes, her heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. If they really came to rescue Elena, and they really attacked the building with the Blood Assassins…then it was almost cruel, bad luck she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. She didn’t know exactly where the rescue was, but for it to succeed, she had to get over there.

‘…This is serious. What should I do?’

She wanted to yell out the window, but she was too far away for them to hear. There was no other way to signal to the soldiers that she was trapped here. With such a large fire, a large number of Lunen troops would naturally flock to the Blood Assassin’s building. If that happened, the rescue forces would be forced to retreat. Elena could not miss this opportunity.

She touched her flat stomach. The gradual passage of time was a great strain on her. Each day she lived in fear whether someone would notice she was pregnant, or if the pregnancy would take a bad turn.

‘I have to figure something out.’

She couldn’t just sit here anxiously wringing her hands. Suddenly, she heard dozens of footsteps outside marching towards her cell. She thought about what Paveluc would do once he found out that Carlisle sent the rescue troops.

If it was Paveluc…

He might have her killed as an example, or he would move her deeper into hiding so that she could never be found. Whatever choice Paveluc made, if Elena’s guess what right, she may have a moment to escape.

She hurriedly concealed the sharpened spoons in her clothes. She had practiced this scenario dozens of times in her head, and she did not hesitate one second. Elena watched the iron door with a wildly beating heart.

Kwaang!

The rusty iron door opened with a creaking sound, and a dozen soldiers appeared to collect Elena. As she watched them, she felt a glimmer of hope.

“Drag her out and let’s go!”

Two soldiers behind him stepped forward. Elena analyzed the situation in a split second.

‘Should I attack them now?’

However, she did not know anything yet about her surroundings. If there were more soldiers she didn’t see and take account of, her escape attempt could very well fail. When she was brought to this place, she had been unconscious.

‘…I have to be careful. I only have one chance.’

Furthermore, it was not a good idea to overstretch herself while pregnant. After a moment of thought, she concluded that the time was not yet ripe. She stood still as the two soldiers bound her wrists tightly with a rope. One pushed her forward roughly.

“Walk.”

She glared at them, but soon began to follow the men out of the cell. The hallway outside was narrower than she thought, and there were about five or six iron doors next to where she was locked in.

‘This must be a place to incarcerate people, but where on earth is this place?’

Elena’s red-eyed eyes swept over the dozen soldiers that were escorting her, their faces tense and grim.

‘…And where are they taking me?’

There were still too many unknown variables, but one thing for sure was that she had little time to act. She had to signal her location before Carlisle’s reinforcements retreated.
