table to be sacrificed.”
    “You mean the prophet? Is Cordelia who the prophet speaks of?”
    “Yes, she is. Amelia stabbed me and that’s all I remember. Now, can you help me? I need to find out how to get out of the cell and save Cordelia.”
    “Turn please. So, you love Cordelia?”
    I turned slightly to look at her. “Yes, I do; very much so. I need to get to her. “
    She finished dressing my back with the medicinal leaves. They stung, but seconds later, it soothed all the pain. “This will stop the bleeding, but you need to be careful; the cuts can open back up.”
    “Thanks, Bridget. Now, promise me when we get out of this hell hole you will apologize to my sister. Kale betrayed her and she could use someone to help her get through this. I think all of this will destroy her. She watched Amelia stab me, so I don’t know what she is thinking. But I can tell you this: I bet she wants revenge on Kale. That redheaded bitch you mentioned? Her name is Anna; she was my first charge. She betrayed me in a way and I want revenge.”
    “Wait a minute, I thought Anna died. That was the rumor, anyway.”
    “No, she didn’t. She faked her death at Amelia’s request. That’s how she betrayed me. She broke my heart, all because that bitch told her to.”
    “That is messed up, Cam,” Bridget said with a sneer.
    I nodded and started pacing the floor. “I thought I loved Anna, but I was wrong. I didn’t know what love was before I met Cordelia.” I stopped and looked at Bridget, remembering all of the days that had passed since I met Delia. “You have no idea what I put her through. I was so mean to her.” The day I bullied her still killed me. I hated myself for ever participating in that. “But you know what? She forgave me. Even after the harsh things I said to her, she forgave me. She’s my heart and soul, Bridget. I don’t think I could go on without her.” I slid to the floor and started to cry. “I made a vow to keep her safe, but I failed. I let her down, and now she’s going to die because of me.”
    As I covered my eyes with my hands, I felt Bridget sit beside me and wrap her arms around me. “I believe you love her, Cameron. I will help you save her. I lost both my best friend and my brother. I have nothing to live for, so I will fight this to the death.” I looked over at her and she smiled slightly, an evil gleam in her eye. “And I’ll take that Anna bitch with me…”
    I was glad to have someone on my side. “Now, let’s figure out how to get out of here so we can save your girl.”

    Gabe squeezed my hand as we continued to walk. “Kay, I’m sorry for what Kale did to you. I hope you know I am nothing like him.”
    His comment caught me off guard. On the one hand, I didn’t know he was not going to hurt me like his cousin did, because I didn’t know him. But on the other hand, something inside of me was telling me to trust him. “I know, Gabe. He just hurt me so bad; he broke my heart. It’s hard to not think about the good times we had together. He did treat me good at one point.”
    “You’re a good person and a beautiful girl, Kay. You will find Mr. Right one day. Maybe even sooner than you think,” he said with a wink.               I rolled my eyes at his flirtations. “Actually, no I won’t. I’m cursed, Gabe.”
    We stopped walking and he turned to me and put a hand on my cheek. I closed my eyes. His touch was electrifying. My heart sped up; I could hear it pounding in my ears. His touch was different from Kale’s. I never felt like this with him. “Kay,” he began affectionately, “you are the most beautiful loving girl I know. Even though we just met, I know you have a good heart and any man would be lucky to have you. Kale was a moron to let you go. I don’t care if you’re cursed. I want you to be happy and I believe I can make you happy. So why not be happy with me?”
    I sighed and opened my eyes. “Gabe, we just met.
