I'm sorry if I'm being very draggy but I still hope you enjoy reading it :)
Cammie's POV
I woke up, feeling kind of woozy. Before I was knocked out, there was still four days left to the drug exchange. I couldn't feel any blood on my head and apart from feeling a little disorientated, I felt fine. That should mean that I wasn't out for more than a day, so there should be three days left now.
I looked around to see where I was. I was in a room with a clean toilet; bed and things seemed almost too good to be true. If Moco backhanded me, then Tiger must have found out about me. Why would they still let me stay in such a room?
I looked up and saw a CCTV camera located in the top corner of the room. So they were keeping me under surveillance. What else? Just then, the door clicked and somebody came in. It was Tiger. I almost shrunk into the corner of the room when I was reminded of how Catherine tortured me back then, but I kept myself rooted to the ground and still greeted him. He closed the door behind him and made me sit down.
"Elaina, I will be lying if I told you I'm not angry with you. I've treated you like a daughter, how could you betray me? I have all the evidence I need about you already. Tell me who you really are and I might change my mind," his eyes were scarily cold at this point.
"I – I know I've disappointed you, but I'm not going to apologize. Why do you need to me to tell you everything when you already know?" I shot back. I was going for the tough way. I knew he would not be changing his mind already. He was probably very disappointed inside but he was furious as well. He once told me that he hated traitors the most.
"You… Very well indeed. Here's something you might want to know. What do you think of the name 'Sean' for a boy? Pretty cute?" he smirked at me.
The composure I had been keeping up almost came crumbling down. He knew about Sean? "It's not bad," I managed to say.
"You must think it's a excellent choice of a name. After all, you chose it for your own son, right?" he whispered before letting out a flat laugh. "Do some reflections before I meet you later."
After he left, I resisted the urge to cry. Be strong, Cameron! You can't let them see you being weak at this time. You need to think of a plan to get yourself out of here!
Zach's POV
Before storming into Maroon's office, I had notified the gang. Liz was close to tears while Macey was brimming with anger at me for not telling them earlier. The guys were not very pleased about it either but they didn't lash out or anything. Bex was just keeping quiet at the side. Abby was at home since she was pregnant. Joe had told us about his encounter with Cammie the other day, confirming that she was indeed alive and well, kicking. Rachel looked extremely worried. But after five minutes combined with spy training, everyone managed to buck him or herself up.
I stopped myself from demanding an explanation from him the moment I stepped in and instead of that, I managed to make myself explain the whole situation, including Sarah's betrayal in a calm voice.
We immediately issued an arrest warrant and detained Sarah. Although she was a mole, I could tell she had problems of doing it against her conscience as well. I left her in silence for half an hour while Miguel, Maroon and the gang had a meeting. We needed an urgent discussion to understand more about the current situation.
Miguel cleared his throat. "I understand the urgency of this meeting and I shall just go straight to the point. Cameron Ann Morgan, late CIA agent, codename Chameleon had faked her death under orders from Maroon and I to infiltrate a gang called NOW. In NOW, she's 27 years old and Elaina Kade, brought up in a delinquent's home. We have been receiving information from her for the past three years and we know that there is a drug exchange happening in three days' time. Elaina is in charge of handing the drugs over to the buyers, which we will bust. Clear?"
I hung on to every word he was saying. This was my Gallagher Girl he was talking about. She must have felt so lonely, separating herself from us these three years. We then volunteered to take part in busting the drug exchange. Liz, Jonas, Rachel and Joe were not involved. Rachel and Joe would be working with Miguel and Maroon on the sidelines.
Macey left with a couple of bodyguards to bring Sean here. We had also concluded that if Cammie might be in danger, they might have their sights on Sean as well. We needed everyone to be safe.
Before we left the room, I said, "I'm sorry for acting on my own and handing Cammie's profile to Sarah. I knew she was up to nothing good but it was the only way to confirm my suspicions of her."
Joe patted a firm hand on my shoulder and out of the corner of my eye I could see Grant holding Bex back.
"We understand. Now with Sarah detained, we can get more information out. Don't brood about it, just focus on the drug bust," Joe reassured me.
Although he said it that way, I knew and they knew too, that if anything bad happened to Cammie, I would never be able to forgive myself.
Cammie's POV
When Tiger came in the next day, he came in with some food. I shook my head, indicating that I wasn't going to touch the food.
"There's nothing poisonous inside. I need you to eat for the drug exchange. For my final plan," he stared at me.
"I'll eat it later, and I'm not participating in the drug exchange anymore," I said.
"Quite a good resistance, I must say. The CIA really lives up to its name. Can I ask you a question? Where did you get that finger of yours chopped? Would you rather work with me or see the same fate happen to Sean?"
I could have vomited there and then. They could do anything to me, but they could not hurt my son. He must have seen my face change because he smiled at me. In a nasty way. What was he planning to do on the drug exchange? Should I tell them not to come? I can't, not in the state I'm in. What can I do?
Please review! Thanks, Rernay :P
