they find Cora jade

taking Dakotas van, they drove back toward the previous town using the same roads they would have used previously.

they watched for broken down cars until they reached the motel they last knew Cora had been staying at.

after asking the head desk about Cora they got a key and checked her room.

they found Cora jade on the bed, naked with her wrists and ankles taped together behind her back.

her face was covered in mascara from crying and she had peed the bed because she couldn't get up to use the toilet.

Tegan pulled the tape off her mouth.

"tegan!" Cora hoarsely croaked.

Cora's throat was raw from screaming for help and from what Mandy had done to her.

"who did this?!" Dakota asked as she started untaping Cora's ankles while Tegan worked on freeing her wrists.

"Sonya **** me!" Cora sobbed. "then she let Mandy and toxic attraction **** me while SHE WATCHED!"

Cora sobbed angrily.

Cora broke down in tears, her slim shoulders shaking.

"oh my GOD." Dakota whispered.

Dakota hugged Cora tightly and kissed her on h head as she softly stroked Cora's black hair.

"I am SO sorry! we'll help you. Sonya will pay for this." Dakota promised.

"they ALL will." Tegan said darkly.

Dakota helped Cora shower and get dressed while Tegan talked to the officials.

as Cora showered, Dakota stood outside the curtain in case she needed something and for moral support.

Cora watched the water swirl down the drain between her feet and felt her shame and pain wash away.

she only felt a cold resentment inside. a raw determination.

she knew what she had to do.
