Prologue

"Huh!" a sharp pain seared in to Lily's side as she was kicked in to the door knob. Lily threw a punch, but was kicked in the table. She was in so much pain she knew her rib was bruised if not broken. A tall dark haired man approached her and lifted her frail wounded body and set her in a chair, lily fought against him but had no strength left. He managed to tie her wrists to the arm rests.

"Who do you work for! "The man sternly asked.

"No one" Lily suddenly felt a sharp stinging sensation across her face. Her face hurt even more for she already had several cuts from the fight on her face.

"I' am going to ask you once more lily..." the man now bending over just inches from lily's face said in a stern tone.

"Who do you work for?" lily was still dazed from the slap looked up into the man's dark eyes.

"I can't… huh "The man slapped her once more.

"I'm afraid you have caused me to use a means of torture in order to get what I want." The man, now pulling out a pair of pliers from his coat pocket looked at lily with a grimace on his face.

"Stay to your word Lily, don't give in." lily thought to herself.

"If you must pull my teeth could you start in the back?" lily now looking directly at the man defiantly said.
