Chapter 5 - Who was Macy?

“What are you doing? Please let me go.” I started to cry again.

“Maya, stop crying,” he reached out to wipe my tears, but I looked away

“What are we going to do with her?” Ty asked, “You had Macy first it’s my turn,” he proceeded to give me a disgusting smile that made the back of my hair rise.

Ty started licking his lips as he was looking at me with hungry eyes. The same eyes, Julian had every time he asked about sex. The look was demeaning and made me sick.

“Please let me go. I’m not Macy. She is dead.” I pleaded with them.

“You see, Maya, I know all about you. Macy talked about you a lot.” I looked at him quizzically, trying to get a point before he continued, “Macy left a huge debt and she stole something very precious and you are going to pay,” he started brushing my hair with his hands which made me tense.

As he was moving his hand through my hair slowly, he suddenly held my throat and I could see Ty smirking impressed by his brother’s hold on my neck. Tom’s eyes turned murderous as he squeezed tighter without him moving his body. My hands had instinctively dropped my bag and shoes as I tried to push his unmoving hand from my neck. My vision was starting to blur, then he released his hand as I dropped on my knees taking a deep breath, coughing my hands running on the same neck his hand was on.

“Now that you know what I’m capable of, guess we will agree,” he said softly as if he hadn’t tried to choke me to death. Tom reminded me of Julian and I started to cry again.

“What do you want from me?” I got up, adjusting my dress putting my hand on my neck again.

“Maya, stop crying, I hate tears. Those have never worked for me in this business, ” he ordered.

“What are you thinking Tom?” Ty asked not moved by Tom’s behavior. I was not sure who was scarier between the two.

“Do you know why Macy had that tattoo on her shoulder?” He was looking at Ty not me as he asked the question. “You see Maya, we label our girls and since you are here, we are going to label you too?” He said smirking.

“No, ” I shook my head and I wanted to cry again.

“Sweetheart, if you cry again, I will let Ty have his way with you.”

“You won’t get away with this, I won’t do it,” I said making sure the tears don’t flow I didn’t want to bring back the murderous look again.

I could see the two brothers giving each other a look before they started laughing. It was as if they had communicated with, their eyes. As they were laughing you could see that their genes were the same, but their appearance was different.

Tom was more mature, and he presented himself with style like the perfect suit he wore with his hair combed and he wore a Rolex that was shining, whereas Ty wore ripped jeans and combat boot with a tight shirt and a leather jacket his hair was messy and he had a beard. If I had seen these two men in the street without knowing them my high school girls and I would be swooning and drooling as they were both attractive.

“Can I leave?” I said in an annoyed tone as they both stopped laughing.

“You are not going anywhere; Tom I will bring her back after I had my taste of the product,” Ty said moving to me.

“What?” My voice turned raspy.

“Grab your things, let’s go,” I picked up my things backing away from Ty looking at Tom searching for mercy or some sort of sympathy.

“Ty” Tom called out.

“We talked about this Tom,” he said not taking his eyes off me.

“Macy said she was a virgin Ty; you know what that means right?” Ty pinched his nose before moving away.

“I don’t care about the money; I want her first,” he said with a cold and demeaning tone.

“Wh-What do you mean? Macy told you that?” I said in disbelief, shaking my head, “She would never do that.”

“Macy told me all about you and your dear mommy,” my eyes almost popped out as Tom mention my mother.

“What do you know about my mother?” I had pushed Ty away from me and moving toward Tom with my fist clenched, ready to attack as Ty gripped my neck with his right hand and his other holding me by my stomach behind me

What was it with these two and necks? I thought as I had stopped in my tracks as by Ty’s tight grip.

“Let go of me,” I shook my body gritting my teeth.

“So, there are fire and claws in you,” he said, smirking impressed by my sudden reaction.

“Let me go,” I was wiggling again using my elbows.

“Hold still, ” Ty’s grip got tighter around my neck.

“You are choking me hard, I can't breathe,” my voice pitched as I felt my eyes bug out.

“Brother, I don’t need saving, especially from our priced virgin,” he said in a mocking tone.

“Virgin?” Ty released me quickly. I coughed hard glaring at him.
