The Alliance
HEALING YOU"Baekhyun," I hear someone calling out my name. "Baekhyun, wake up!"
I open my eyes and saw the person in front of me, slightly kicking my legs to wake me up from my slumber, Zhang Yixing. We are in a dimly lit room, big enough to fit both of us. My head is throbbing from where I was hit.
"What happened? Where are we?" I ask him, now noticing that my hands are tied behind my back and both my feet are tightly secured with ropes. "Who the hell brought us here?"
