117...the surveillance videos

Dario’s POV

The minute I stepped into the dungeon with my men behind me, I turned to look at them conveying my questions. Isla wasn’t here so it made it easier for me to talk.

“So how did they escape?”I asked in a firm voice.

“We don’t know. We just came to see that the locks were broken.”

“Hmm.” I said softly, moving close to the cage where they were held. I scanned the place carefully searching for traces of a bridge or anything that will give me a hint of how the lock had been broken.

I moved closer, my hands going over the gate and the next thing I heard was the sound of the gate swinging open. With a slow stride, I stepped into it, my eyes moved round the space hoping that I would catch hold of something, anything but there ended up being nothing.

I walked out of the cage, moving to where the broken lock was—dangling at the entrance. My thumb traced the keyhole, as I scanned it carefully.

“Was the door lock changed?” I asked, letting go of it.

“No, your highness it wasn’t.”
