Derik nodded. Three wouldn't be terribly difficult to overpower between the two of them. The bigger issue would be getting all the way out of the prison before other guards ...

Good? This didn't feel good. Derik let Kazimir drag him across the cell and throw him against the wall, watching in dreadful anticipation as Kazimir hit the wall instead of ...

Derik felt his stomach flutter a bit but forced himself not to retreat as Kazimir loomed uncomfortably close. It wasn't like he hadn't gotten his ass kicked plenty of times ...

"Are you really this dumb?" Derik scoffed before he could stop himself. "Really? You think your strategy's gonna work out how you plan?" Derik pushed himself to his feet and ...

"Gods no, I don't know him," Derik retorted but decided to continue quickly before Kaz could get too many ideas in his head. The man was entirely too big to ...

Derik would have been alarmed at the mental image of someone's head being electrocuted -- up close and personal. But he was too distraught at the thought that he was ...
