Chapter 7 kidnapping

I began to continue the experiment with the elimination method, next to Xavier looked at me with increasing impatience, and I waited for his impatience.

At this juncture of not knowing whether to live or die next, I certainly won't waste time testing whether a glass of solution is pure glucose or not, my real target is the phone on the desk.

If only Xavier would go away, I could use the phone to contact my family. I'd only made two calls since my phone had been confiscated upon arrival at Sin Pack, and one of them hadn't gotten through yet.

"Have you checked enough yet? "

Xavier walked straight to the medicine cabinet, fished out two unopened bags of glucose powder, and tossed them right at me.

"You can't trust me to brew it, just brew yourself a cup. "

I pushed the powdered sugar aside and stared unblinkingly at the test tube in front of me, deliberately ignoring him, "Are you afraid that I will detect that you poisoned me and that I will turn you in? "

I don't look at Xavier' s expression and try to act stubborn and incomprehensible, "I must find out what poison you have given me. " 

"Then take your time to find out. "

Xavier saw test tube after test tube erected in front of me, perhaps because he knew it would take a lot of effort, he impatiently walked out.

I did not show the leap of faith in my heart, and when my footsteps were too small to be heard, I rushed to the phone and dialed the home number.

The last time the phone was answered by a maid, who put me off for less than two sentences before hanging up, I made up my mind to insist that my parents answer the phone themselves this time, but I didn't expect the call to go through.

The home phone didn't work, and my parents' personal cell phone didn't answer.

I hung on for dear life and dialed my boyfriend' s number, but luckily, the phone that didn't get through last time was answered in less than three seconds.

"Lyle! "

I shouted excitedly, "Where are you? I finally got through to you, Lyle, are you still here? Are you back at Blue moon pack? "

The person on the other end of the line was obviously not as excited as I was, and he was even a bit uncharacteristically calm.

I was so anxious and afraid that Xavier would be back any minute that I didn't even notice anything was wrong.

"Lyle? " 

"Lyle, I don't know why I got caught. They said I had contraband drugs in my luggage, but I don't know how it came to be. Now I'm being held in Sin Pack on a charge of drug trafficking. I also lost my ID and they think I'm rogue. no one came to bail me out. Where are you now? "

"Lyle, are you okay? I couldn't reach you for the past few days, I was so worried that something had happened to you too. I'm going to trial in a few days, will you be there? Will you come and testify for me? "

There was the sound of flowing breath on the other end of the line, and his voice finally spoke.

"Will. " 

"Great! "

Lyle said he could come, so that meant his personal freedom should not be controlled and he should be okay.

"I'm relieved you're here, I just got into Sin Pack today and got into a riot and almost died... "

"Then how come you didn't die? "

A cold word came into my eardrums through the current of the microphone, and I froze for a moment, wondering if I had heard it wrong.

"I'm... It' s okay, don't worry. "

I think I must have heard wrongly because of the ringing in my ears, Lyle could not have said something like "how come you are not dead".

There was a soft laugh in my ear.

"On the day of the trial, you must come. "

"Yes, I'll be there... I'll be there to see you tried. " 

I listened to Lyle' s somewhat odd tone, and my heart was inexplicably a bit confused.

The phone call made me even more uneasy than before.

As if to reassure myself, I said to Lyle, "Don't worry, I'll be out of here soon. "

"You can't get out. "

The sudden voice from the doorway made me slam the receiver back, "Xavier!

Xavier stood leaning against the doorway, his hair tied behind his head blowing in the wind, he adjusted his hat and said, "You've called, that' s enough, right? I told you, into this Sin Pack can only be peaceful, no matter what you used to be, what you know, it has nothing to do with now. "

I didn't think so when he said that to me the previous time, but now I'm hanging on to it instead due to this weird phone call.

"Even though you're a female werewolf... "

I looked at Xavier nervously when he mentioned this out of the blue.

He tilted his head sideways, his gaze lingering on my face for a few seconds, "Sin Pack doesn't offer preferential treatment just because a slave is female. Remember, you are a convict first, then a slave, and for ease of management, all convicts must live together and eat together... "

"But I'm the only female... You know what would happen if you put me in a pile of men. I would be raped. "

"It' s none of my business. You must stay here and serve your sentence, it' s a rule set by the king. You can continue to pretend to be a male werewolf. I will not intentionally reveal your secret. If you can promise not to do anything dangerous, I can also consider arranging a solitary room for you to live alone. "

"I want it! " I said in a hurry, "I want it! Please let me live alone! I don't want a roommate! "

Xavier nodded, "Yes. "

"But a single room won't help much. There are no secrets in Sin Pack, there are cameras everywhere, it' s all public... "

After looking at me for a moment, Xavier slowly said, "Pay attention to yourself; it' s not the environment that' s bad in Sin Pack, it' s the hearts. " 

"Oh... "

"When you finish your glucose, go back to bed and I'll have someone take you to your room when the doctor comes back to make sure you're okay. "

What Xavier said made me freeze a little. It wasn't that I couldn't understand it, but I couldn't understand why he would say that to me.

Wasn't he suspicious and hostile to me?

Hadn't he deliberately told Guard to "double the vigilance" on me earlier?

Why was he suddenly so nice to me now? Could there be another trap waiting for me to jump?

I lay back in the hospital bed, my head in a tangle of thoughts, thinking about the phone call I had just made with my boyfriend, and then thinking about Xavier' s hesitation to say anything.

Before I fell asleep, I heard the sound of his footsteps leaving, and I was relieved to fall asleep completely.

In the dream, I dreamed about how I met my boyfriend, Lyle.

I met him when I was 18 years old. He was still a rogue at that time.

On the day I graduated from high school, I was kidnapped on my way back from a party.

It was during that kidnapping that Lyle saved me and came into my life.
