Before I knew it the car had stopped and I struggled with whoever was trying to grab me 

"Just cooperate and everything will be fine." a familiar voice hisses 

"We didn't do anything wrong." I hear Simon cry 

"Be quiet or you're gonna make this worse for yourself." another voice says but the sound of a phone ringing has me turning my head to the side. When the blindfolds pulled off I realise who it is. Alaric, Clarys stepdads colleague. I look over to the other guy who was holding Simon 

"Alaric, who is this guy?" I cry but he ignores me.

"Luke's calling." Alaric states 

"Ignore it. That's an order." the other guy growls 

"Are you guys with Luke? Did he send you?" I cry 

"None of your business." he hisses and then we're being dragged into a building 

"Why do I keep getting kidnapped?" Simon whines as we get thrown into a diner booth 

"Not to be self-centered, but I think it's me they're after." I murmur as I watch Alaric and Theo slide into the booth on the opposite side of us. 

"Okay, what is going on? Alaric, did you arrest us for trespassing or something, because, news flash, I was in Clarys apartment." I hiss and the other man rolls his eyes 

"We're just having a little conversation, that's all." the other man says 

"Do you always handcuff people you wanna talk to? I bet this guy has one of the scariest online profiles ever." Simon says and the other man laughs 

"This guy's funny. I like funny." he states to Alaric who just sighs 

"Look, I know you're scared of Luke. He's trying to find you, I can keep you safe. You just need to tell us where the Mortal Cup is." Alaric says and I laugh 

"Everyone thinks I can find this Cup, I don't even know what you're going on about, I've been gone. Years." I hiss 

"Think, Reign. I'm trying to give you a chance." Alaric says and I laugh 

"I can't help you. I'm sorry. Now, will you please let us go?" I mutter leaning forward but I jump back when the other man stabs a fork down on the table 

" Playtime's over." he growls 

"Theo, just let me talk some sense into them." Alaric says and Theo shakes his head 

"No, we did it your way. Now, we're gonna try it my way." he states and I watch as Theo makes hand gestures to some more men who had entered the room 

"Hey, hey—" Simon cries as the man picks Simon up 

"Hey, don't touch him!" I cry about to jump up 

"Don't move. Tell us where the Cup is or your funny friend dies." Theo growls and I feel myself begin to panic 

"Please, please... Please, don't hurt Simon, okay? I promise you, I swear to you, I do not know where this Cup is. What is it? What cup? I can run down to Walmart right now and go get one, maybe the dollar store, Walmarts too expensive these days" I cry but Theo just smirks 

"Funny. That's too bad. Get rid of him." Theo orders and I watch in horror as the two men begin to drag hum out of the room 

"What? Hey, let go of me!" Simon cries 

"Simon!" I scream but he's gone just as I jump up. My attempts of following Simon are stopped almost immediately, a hand comes down on my shoulder slamming me back down in my seat.
