My legs began to wobble and soon I came crashing to the ground, "Sekani!" he shouted as he quickly came to my side to help me. He tried to touch me but I held up a hand in front of him, "don't touch me" I said without sparing him a glance. Apart from in the movies, I've never heard a gunshot before in my life, the sound of it was terrifying talk more of being at the receiving side of the gun, I can't imagine what it feels like. I'm going to need more than a few days to get over this trauma, I don't think anyone deserves to be shot dead, just what could he have done to deserve such horrific death?? Did he kill someone?? I was panting like a race dog, I struggled to regulate my breath again, I swear if I hear that sound one more time then my heart might fail. "Don't tell me you haven't heard a gunshot before" he said and I shot him a disbelieving glare. "You think it's normal to hear such a horrendous sound?? Since wh

Soon we were in front of my door and we bid ourselves good night and I entered. As soon as I entered, I slumped into the bed and gave out a sigh of relief. And I looked up at the ceiling, it's the end of the day and I still have no idea why I'm here, yet I'm already getting comfortable.I shut my eyes to sleep, but all I could see was his face, those icy blue eyes. "What exactly do you want from me?? Why are you keeping me here?? Let me go already!" I muttered to myself still with my eyes shut, I wasn't sure if I was asleep or still awake, but I was surely aware of what I wanted; to go home.No matter how much they try to make me comfortable here, I will never be. But am I sure I want to go back to that slum again??Certainly not. Last night's bathing rituals repeated this morning and I must say that I had a good night sleep and I'm certainly gonna have an amazing day after th

A knock came on the door, 'could that be Sasha?? but she just took out the tray now, or could it be that she forgot something? By the way, she doesn't knock before entering so how come she's doing so now??'I got off the bed and stood in anticipation for whoever was at the door. The knock came again and I realized that whoever it was on the door was never going to come in except I grant them permission."C..come in" I simply stated out of impulse and in came the... I mean them, they were two girls in uniforms, but they were much older than I am. I am beginning to wonder, are they maids? I that what Sasha is too??"Good evening ma'am" they both greeted in unison, "good evening" I responded. "It's time for your bath ma'am" one of them said and that's when I noticed the items they were carrying, blankets, some change of clothes and some other stuffs I can't make out."My bath??" I asked like I didn't understand what they meant, "yes ma'am" anoth

"Let me gooo! let go of me!! I said let go of me!!! I want to go home!!! arhh!!!!!!" I screamed and yelled and cried too, but Leo kept dragging me out of the room, I kicked and punched and clawed, all in the bid to break out of his grip but I couldn't escape, infact his grip got firmer and tighter with each attack.He lifted me and tossed me over his shoulder and began to walk with faster strides. I jabbed my fists into his back in a recurring pattern, but he seemed unaffected and never stopped, until we got to a particular door.He opened the door with a key and took me inside then the next time, I came thudding on a bed.It was actually a bedroom.I made to get off the bed, but he gave me a warning look and I halted. With teary eyes and blurred vision, I watched him leave the room and just that moment, I rushed to the closing door, but before I could get to the door, it slammed shut and I heard the lock click.I cried as I banged on the door, "let me out! get me out of here!!!"

Finally we stopped, we've been driving for the past 3 hours, I knew this because I could see the time on the driver's board, but it seems to me like we've been on the road for... like forever! I was getting restless.I could someone just kidnap another against her own wish?? what right do they have to do that?? Do they know they're violating my basic rights?? of course they know, who doesn't?I kept looking at the two men sitting at my both sides, they were both terrifying. Were they scared that I would jump out of a moving car? is that why they had their two men sitting at the both windows?? They must be kidding me! there's no way a girl like me could do something like that, wouldn't it require special skills to do that? But then, I would have done that if I had the skills.Now, we're in front of this massive gate, heavily guards by armed bodyguards and I knew that ones we go through that gate, there was no way I could ever escape from here. 'Oh holy mother!'I'm supposed to be at wo

"B..boss! you're here" the first man stuttered, but the man being spoken to seems to have his eyes somewhere else."Good morning boss!" the other man greeted, "chains, what were those for??" the mysterious man asked looking at the chains on the floor, I heard the man that had untied me curse silently.I've been fighting to see who this 'boss' was, to see his face at least, maybe it could turn out to be someone I knew, but I couldn't, the flash light was focused on me, and it somehow blurred the faces of the two men behind it."Uhh... t..the chains were for..." "You had her chained up??" he asked in a demanding but calm voice, his voice echoed in the room, but he didn't even appear to be trying; he did it so effortlessly. "Talk you bloody fool!" the other man shouted at his colleague, "you were the one that had her abducted! and then you knocked her out and then had her chained up! I told you that you would be sorry!" he continued.I get what he was trying to do, to save himself from
