"Brienne." Someone spoke up when I started to wake up, feeling disoriented as pain throbbed so violently around my skull that I wondered why it didn't just crack open.

My body tensed and my head snapped to the side of that person's voice. I couldn't see his features but his voice told me I was dealing with a man.

And judging by his voice, he was the powerful kind of a man. I could bet my ass that I heard Russian accent as well.

"My name is Maxim Mikhailov." He introduced himself with his deep resonating voice.

"Hmm...Mikhailov Maxim..." I played with his name, searching in my memories.

"Doesn't ring a bell." I managed to shrug casually, keeping my face straight even though my head throbbed in pain.

It caused a lot of self control because I wanted to beat him up for kidnapping me and for hurting Mr. Henderson. I could just wish for him to be alive.

Good thing for the man that my hands were tied up to the chair and my ankles as well so I couldn't lunge at him and kill him right there.

And the scoop light pointed at me was pissing me off as well. Even more so because the man was keeping himself behind it in the shadows so I couldn't see him properly.

"You may not know who I am now, but we'll get there." He said simply. "All you need to know is that I know a lot of things about you."

Okay, now I was a bit more terrified than I was before, but the fear wasn't as big as the rage boiling inside my veins. This bastard kidnapped me. ME! Why?! What did he want from me?

"Well, do tell. I've been kind of lost for the past few years. I would appreciate it if you'd enlightened me with some information about me." I said calmly.

"But now, how about I get to know you?" I winked at his silhouette cheekily, trying to come up with a plan on the go. "How about a face to face conversation?"
