ROSE'S POV___
When I regained myself, everything was dark. I made a groaning sound and almost like someone slammed the sun in my face, I was attacked by an onslaught of light. Very bright light. When my eyes adjusted to my surroundings, I saw a bag laying on the floor. It must have been what was over my head when I woke up.
Their method of kidnap is really poor. I really do not see any reason to put a bag over the head of a person who is already knocked out and is unconscious. I guess it has to be a precaution in case I woke up in the middle of being transported.
If that had happened, I would have just closed my eyes and remained there because there's no way I was planning on letting them know that I was awake. What if they decide to push me out of the moving vehicle for seeing their f
___NATE'S POV___For some reason, after Rose left, my mind wasn't at peace. I kept thinking about her even though I know where she was going and the fact that she wasn't coming back here. Not until tomorrow, at least.I was itching to call her to check on her and to ask her where she was but I don't want to seem like I'm obesssed with her or in love with her. I wouldn't want to give her a wrong idea of what is going on here. I know the kind of person she is. She overthinks and reads into each and everything she is told and I don't have the strength to start arguing with her that I'm just looking out for her.The feeling doesn't want to go and I know I can't be at rest until I call her to ask her where she is. When I checked the time on my phone, it hadn't been up to four hours since she left yet.
___NATE'S POV____We all looked at him blankly after he said this. This really isn't the time for him to be playing pranks on us. He doesn't look like he is joking about it but I refuse to believe that it is true. Rose can't be kidnapped. She was in my house earlier this morning and she went to her friend's place too. Her friend, Helena. Damn, I don't have her contact so I can't reach her to confirm if Rose is in her place or even if she went to her place and came back."What do you mean by kidnapped?" James asked the question that's in our minds. Jaden moved forward and came to sit in the middle of the room. We gathered around him and looked at the screen. Most of what is there doesn't really make sense to most of us but he explained it in details to us."When I came back home, I wen
_ROSE'S POV__I felt water being poured on my head and I woke up gasping for breath. The flow of blood must have either stopped or it was treated although I doubt that. For people that want to kill me, I don't think they'll be kind enough to help me dress a wound. I raised my hand to feel it and then I stopped.I vaguely recollect someone telling them to untie me. The memory came back to me and I really hope it's not who I think it is I heard."Hello, Rose. I see you're awake again. Sorry for forcefully waking you. I'd have loved to let you sleep for a longer time but my partner here is really impatient and I'd like to get it over with as soon as possible too, so I'm sorry about the rush." It's her. I really hoped I was wrong about the voice, but it really is her. I looked into
NATE'S POV___When I left mom's place, I had information on several people who might be involved in the kidnap of Rose. For someone who doesn't even have friends or go out much, Rose has a lot of people who are looking for a way to get to her and it's mostly because of me.From the list I was given, only about four seemed likely since the rest are either out of the state at the moment or are too old or without any motive to do it. I scanned the list one more time before handing it over to James who scanned the list, not making much sense out if it."Don't worry. I understand what's in it and I know the people that are there. We're going to make rounds so I can filter out and find out who it might be that can be with your sister. We'll find her, don't worry." I assured him when I
__ROSE’S POV___Of all the things I expected, I did not expect Jessica to pull out a gun similar to the one with Helena to use on her. Everyone knew she would be weak from being shot with bullets that had wolfsbane but no one predicted that she was going to have one of her own. It must have been a surprise to everyone around too because they looked shocked. I guessed they must have gotten only one of it and Jessica has gone behind their backs to get another.“How’d you have that? This was custom made for me alone,so how do you have it?” I don’t know why Helena is scared. Jessica might be a good shot but I’m not entirely sure she’s that good enough to kill her in the very first shot which can give Helena enough time to escape. Also, she doesn’t have to be worried. She’s not a werewolf, so th
__ROSE’S POV___I ducked as the shot rang out even though I was on the floor. I looked up to see the end of Jessica’s gun smoking. She had already shot the gun but despite all of her show off, she was a very bad shot. The bullet in the gun rigged itself on the way beside Helena and I can see the fear that was apparent in her eyes. Jessica’s eyes.“Seriously?” Helena said, not believing that Jessica would have done that to her. She shouldn’t be so surprised since Jessica has said it earlier that she would do it. “You couldn’t wait till I was done here? You had to do it when my back was turned? You know I hate those kind of things”. Is she being for real right now? If I were a person with a gun and I needed to kill someone, I was expected to wait till the person is facing me again before shooting?
ROSE’S POV___A loud bang echoed from outside and they all moved outside to go and see what caused it. It woke Drake from his sleep and he also went with them to go and check it out. I was left all alone and I didn’t waste the opportunity. I made use of that time to escape through the back door that was fortunately not locked. I didn’t wait around to see what caused the distraction, neither did I wait to see if they have noticed that I wasn’t in there anymore. I ran as fast as I could while being weak until it got to the point where I thought I was going to collapse.I didn’t look behind me as I ran but I know that by now, they must have known that I wasn’t in the room and will already be looking for me. I was hearing the sound of life not far from where I am so I know I must be getting close to civilization or at least
_ROSE’S POV___I didn’t expect the punch from her. I knew she was going to do something and I was thinking it was going to be another slap, but a punch to the belly? That’s low, even for her. It hurts so much that if I wasn’t tied to a pillar, I’d be on my knees, doubled over.The fact that I can’t do anything about it makes it hurt even more. I can only cry out in pain and wince as I cry because every tiny movement I make makes it hurt more.I had barely gotten through the first punch when another landed. And another. And another. The punches kept coming and I couldn’t do anything but take it. She seemed to have channeled all her inner rage into the punches. It felt like years and years of pent up energy being used against me. I cried t
