Elliot POV
“FUCK”, I shout, throwing my iPad against the wall. I hear the screen shatter when it hits the wall and falls on the floor.
Theo is standing next to me as I start to pace around. I can’t believe this is happening. I have no clue where Hazel is, and that is driving me insane. I am not able to eat or sleep. I need to find her or I am going to go insane, I will lose my shit, and I will turn the fucking world upside down. I’ll end everyone’s lives until Hazel is the last one standing.
“You need to calm down”, Theo says, and I look at him in the eyes, and immediately he raises both his hands, apologising. “I know it's difficult, but destroying your iPad and your computer won’t fucking help”, he says, and I flip him off, walking out of the office. I walk down the corridors until I reach the garden at the back of the house. Killian is standing in the middle with a cigar between his lips. I see red, and I fl
Hazel POV “You bitch”, Edgar slaps me across the face once more, and I fall on the mattress on the floor. I close my eyes as I don’t move. I have learned my lesson. Every time Edgar comes into this room, I stand still. They removed all the furniture from the room and left me with just a potty and the mattress. I feel like I have been put here to die, and maybe that’s what is happening. Edgar leaves, and I finally sit up. I have been beaten, touched, and starved since I fought back and asked to leave. I stopped thinking about Elliot. It has been so long since I last heard of him that I couldn’t even bring him back to my mind. I am surrounded by darkness, a place I know way too; well, a place that takes over my soul and my body. I feel a single tear slide down my cheek, and I clean it with the back of my hand before I bring my knees to my chest as I hug my own legs
Hazel POV “Move your ass”, I hear one of the guys say. My eyes are blindfolded, and my hands are tied. I didn’t put up much of a fight. There’s no point, and no one will ever come and rescue me. I have no one now, I am on my own, and I am entering a world I never thought I would know from the inside. I can feel tears forming behind the blindfold, but I swallow hard, trying to stop them. I can’t give them the satisfaction of watching me break. I can break behind closed doors, but not in front of them. That is what they want, to see me break and take over my mind and soul. That’s not happening, I might be forced to do this, but my soul and my mind will be somewhere else, far away from my body. My body will be empty of emotions, and it will just be a shell, a shell that has been broken and fractured by these people. I am shoved into the back of a car somehow, my kne
Hazel POV “Hazel”, I say, and immediately, his hand releases my hair that has been cut, and he walks to stand in front of me. His eyes lock on mine, and he winks just before he walks away from the cage and joins a group of men watching a girl on another cage. She is touching herself, and I can’t believe this is happening. Why are they doing this? The lights all of a sudden start flashing, and all the men and shocked women that were scattered around talking to each other and watching the girls gather together and leave the room. I look around while two guys approach my cage and start wheeling it out of the room. I hold on to the bars and pray to God that something drastic will happen. A fire. That would be it. I close my eyes and hope for a fire to break through and spread through this place, killing me in it. It would be a blessed death. At least I wouldn’t be alive to suffer all sorts of torture I will have to endure if I’m sold to one of these people. I am
Elliot POV “Is everything ready?”, I ask as I load my car. Angel nods while Theo and Killian keep shoving weapons in their cars. We are all driving, and we are getting this over with. I am fucking tired of this war, and I want it over with. “I need a couple more things from inside”, Theo says, and I nod as he runs back into the armour house. I watch as he runs back. And he is talking on the phone. “You should hear this”, Theo says and puts his phone between the four of us on loudspeaker. “Hey mate, can you repeat what you just said”, Theo says, and I hear someone on the other side taking a deep breath. “I am not a fucking parrot to be repeating myself”, he barks, and angel looks at me, raising one eyebrow. “Charming”, he mouths, and I can’t help but nod. “For fuck sake, just repeat”, Theo loses his shit and shoots at the phone, “He won’t believe it when I say it”, he finishes, and we all look at
Hazel POV “Your first time?”, she asks the same question as the other girl, and again I nod. She taps my knees and sits in front of me. “It gets easier with time. You might even find an owner that wants to keep you”, she says, and I take a deep breath as I start to feel the cold penetrate into my bones, and I start shivering. “Come here, and we need to stay together”, she says, pulling me to my feet and guiding me to a group of girls that are all hugging while lying down to pass body warmth. She places me in front of her and then lays down behind me. Spooning me, and I close my eyes. Obviously, I can’t sleep, and this is very weird. But I just want this to end. I can’t sleep. I can hear some of the girls crying while others chat between themselves. We are locked in a room where the only thing that has is ma
Elliot POV “Let’s go get my sister”, he says, and I nod. Angel looks at me, and I signal for him to join us. We all get in the fucking helicopter, and we start flying towards where my woman is being kept. And I swear I am going to end everyone around her. Halfway through, Killian clears his throat, and I can hear his voice through the earphones we are all wearing. “This is going to have to be a clean job. Get in, kill everyone, rescue the girls”, Killian says, and I nod in agreement. We found out that there were dozens of girls there, all waiting to be sold to the highest bidder. My stomach turns. I hope the bloke keeps his word because if he doesn’t, I will personally be his fucking worse nightmare. “Ash is on her way there with her men”, Killian announces, and I like that. She is a great leader, and she is always front row seat like us in a battle. She doesn’t care who she has to get over to do the job. She a
Hazel POV“I am never letting you go”, Elliot whispers, and my heart skips a beat, “You’re never leaving my side, ever again”, he continues before taking a deep breath. I can feel his heart hammering against his chest.“You took your time”, I say before he collides his lips against mine. I close my eyes, allowing him to kiss me. God, how I missed this, his touch, his warmth, his smell, his voice, all of him. How could I have thought that this was his fault? He bites my lower lip before invading my mouth with his tongue, claiming me. His arms tighten around my waist.I don’t want to let go, but I can hear the commotion around us. Elliot puts me down on the floor, and I look around to see the girls being put on a bus. I look at Elliot, and he smiles. “What is going to happen to them?” I ask, and
Hazel POVI feel Elliot’s hands moving up and down my bare back. I open my eyes to see him staring at me. I blink a couple of times, trying to adjust my eyes to the light that invades our bedroom from the window. I groan as Elliot pulls away, standing up. I frown, watching him, missing his touch already. I support my body on my elbows and watch him walk past me and into the bathroom. I flop back down, smirking at the image of his bare ass. He has a fantastic ass. I can’t get tired of it, and it's covered in marks from my nails. Scratches. I close my eyes, hugging my pillow.“We need to get up”, Elliot says as he walks back into the room, I can hear the water in the bathroom and I close my eyes shaking my head.“No, I’m tired”, I say, but Elliot straddles me, sitting on my ass and leans down, kissing my neck. I feel a shiver
