When I opened my eyes again, my whole world was different. I was in a torture room. My hands and my legs were tied with a chair.

I was scared, shivering by the sudden change in my life. I was crying and looking around when a man came in.

Man: You're awake. Good. Now we can talk. First, yes you're kidnapped and you're on our mercy.

Cassie: What do you want? I haven't done anything to anyone.

Man: Sweetie. You think bad things happen to bad people. No. It happens to people like you who ain't do anything to hurt other people.

Cassie: You need money or something, you can have it. Please let me go.

Man: We need you to give us your new program with some inside information of the Hunt Tecs.

Cassie: I don't understand. How could I know inside information of the Hunt Tecs?

He grabbed a fistful of my hair and arched my neck forcefully to a painful point.

Man: Listen up smarty ass. The whole world knows you're the only person who's involved with Hunts in a way no one's involved. Not even their friends. Now you have only two options. Give up the information and we'll let you go or keep your mouth shut and we'll make your life hell like you've never even imagined in your worst nightmare. Meg.

Meg: Yes boss.

Man: Feed her something. I want her to live.

Meg: Okay boss.

In a few minutes Meg came back with a tray. He put the tray Down and unknotted all the ropes.

Meg: Eat or I will make you.

I did as he said. When I was done he took the tray and locked me in the torture room. I was crying and thinking who and why would want to hurt me or worst, to Hunts. I was crying and praying to God that before they'll come back, police will find me.

I was still asleep when I heard some noise. I opened my eyes when three men came in and shut the door behind.

Man: So have you decided what you want? Life with peace or you want to wish for your death.

Cassie: Do whatever you can. You can't scare my with your shit.

Man: Is that so.

They put something on my neck and I screamed. It was an iron rod, heated enough that it was glowing red. 

Man: How was that?

Cassie: I won't give a fu'king word.

Man: Rock. Nelson.

Rock & Nelson: Yes boss.

Man: Give her an intro to nightmare.

Rock & Nelson: Yes boss.

They grabbed me by my arms, put me on the torture table. Cuffed my hands and legs tight and secured two wires on either side of my neck by some tape. I wasn't sure what was that until they turn it on and I felt my worst nightmare. They were giving me electric shocks not high enough to kill me but enough to make me scream out loud. I didn't know for how much longer they kept torturing me until I heard their leader.

Man: Stop.

He came near me. I was panting and my whole body was shaking.

Man: You ready or you want more?

I didn't say a single word but spat on his face.

Cassie: Go to hell.

Instead of getting angry he smirked.

Man: You think I would care if you spit on my face.

He grabbed a fistful of my hair.

Man: Welcome to hell sweetie.

With that he left and the other two kept torturing me until I fainted. 

When I opened my eyes again I was on the ground. My whole body was aching. The point on my neck where they put wires were swelled. I tried to get up but the pain was too much for me. Still I gather everything I had to push myself off of the ground. I was locked inside so I went back to set down on the ground hugged my knees and was praying to God help me by anyway, just help me because at some point I knew this was just the start of what they called nightmare.

The door shoot opened and two men came in. One was the leader and the other was someone I haven't seen.

Man: I was getting worried Rock and Nelson had killed you. You were out cold for 2 days. Andy.

Andy: Yes boss.

Man: Feed her do everything you have to do to get her back on her feet.

Andy: Yes boss.

Andy came back with a tray full of fruits.

Andy: Eat it and do it fast.

I ate it, tears flowing. As I finished he took the tray and excited the room locking me behind. I laid down on the ground and drifted off to sleep.

"8 years ago"

Cassie: (oh my God almost everyone running out of the office crying how am I going to get a chance)

Girl: Hey, can we talk? 

I looked at the girl sitting beside me.

Girl: Don't take it the wrong way but it calmed my nerves.

Cassie: OH okay.

Girl: Job?

Cassie: Internship and you?

Girl: Well the same but I have plans to continue.

Cassie: That's good.

Girl: What's your specialty?

Cassie: Softwares.

Girl: Lucky you.

Cassie: Lucky? I can see all of them coming out crying.

Girl: Yeah I can see that too but you have a chance.

Cassie: How?

Girl: Well I've heard they need a junior in software department.

Cassie: Yeah, How do you know?

Girl: Let's just say, I keep my eyes around.

Cassie: Thanks. It really helped.

Girl: What's your name?

Cassie:. Cassandra Wolf. You can call me Cassie.

Girl:. Nice name Cassie.

Cassie:. Thanks, what's yours?

Girl:. Iris Hunt.

Cassie:. Iris Hunt. Mr Hunt's Only daughter?

Iris:. Yes that's me.

Cassie:. Then why are you nervous?

Iris:. Oh my father clearly said " I'm not your father in Hunt's Techs. Your father won't be taking your interview. It will be a man who put his whole life in that damn business. Don't think for a second I wouldn't throw you out of the building."

Cassie:. Wow that's something.

Iris:. Yeah Pretty lame right.

Cassie:. Now I know why are you nervous.

Iris:. Hey you think you can give me your number?

Cassie:. Yeah sure. 

I gave her my number and she gave me hers. A woman came out of the office and called her name.

Woman:. Iris Hunt.

Iris:. That's my cue. Hey promise me even if I wouldn't get the job. We will be friends. You are the very first person who didn't judge me by my name and fame.

Cassie:. Sure thing same thing. The difference is you didn't judge me as a techno creep.

Iris:. You kidding? I think you're cool.

Cassie:. Thanks and good luck.

Iris:. Thanks. I need it.

" Back in time"

Man:. Wake up.

I opened up my eyes to see it was only a dream.

Man:. Ready to talk?

Cassie:. Break all of my bones but I won't say a word.

Man:. As you say lovely. Bring it in.

It was a glass aquarium with worms.

Man:. I brought a special one, just for you.

Cassie:. No.

Man:. Put her in.

Nelson and Meg grab me put me in but didn't let go.

Cassie:. No. Get me out. No.

I was crying but they didn't let me go.

Man:. Tell us and you're free to go.

I glared at him. Something just went off in me I freed my hand by Meg. Took a bunch of worms in my hand put it in my mouth and started chewing it. Worms were like one of my worst nightmares but even I was shocked I could do that but I did it. I chewed them like spaghetti and swallowed. Meg ran out of the room while Nelson threw up. The other man, their leader he was just smiling looking at me.

Man:. You are one of the fighters I see. I am going to enjoy it.

Cassie:. Try your best shot.

Man:. Oh I will.

Rock and Andy came in to drag the aquarium out of the room and lock that after putting a tray full of food In the room. Just as they left I fingered my throat hard enough that it took me a few seconds to throw up. After puking I was relieved that at least there are no worms in my stomach. I ate the food and drift off to sleep.

Next when I opened my eyes I was still alone in the room there was a tray of food but else nobody. I enjoyed my breakfast what I didn't really know my breakfast or lunch or dinner. I knew if I want to survive in a place like this then I have to be strong. My father taught me well because my father is an FBI agent and I was one child who was planning to live in New York not in Vegas with my family. So he taught me to survive in hell like this. The door opened again and I braced myself for another torture session.

Man:. Ready for today's surprise?

I smirked at his question.

Cassie:. Why? Are you getting tired?

He slapped me.

Man:. You are getting stubborn. Let me you teach a lesson. Lesson that your father should have taught you in the first place.

Cassie:. MY father taught me well. He taught me how to survive in the hell like this and he also told me how to handle assholes like you.

Man:. Oh really! What your father do exactly?

Cassie:. He's an FBI agent.

He shouted.

Man:. What?

Cassie:. You heard me. He is an FBI agent and you know what the FBI is capable of.

Man:. You're lying. Just to delay today's torture.

Cassie:. Don't believe me? Just go and search agent David Wolf and also check if he is in New York.

He smirked.

Man:. Even if he Is in New York city. He won't get to you that easily. You are somewhere, where even your God can't hear your prayers.

Cassie:. Just bring it on.

------------------------------------

Time passed like this days, weeks, maybe even months. I lost the count. I was getting chilly. I knew it's winter. It must be snowing outside. I love snow and I never missed snowing season but this year I couldn't because I was locked every time. I go to sleep I pray that next I opened my eyes I'll be out of this hell.

"8 years ago Iris 18th birthday"

Cassie:. Wow. That's something fancy.

Man:. Pardon me but who are you?

Cassie:. I'm Cassandra Wolf. Iris' friend.

Man:. Iris' friend. She ain't call her friends on her birthday parties.

Cassie:. She did invite me.

Iris:. God I thought you won't come.

Cassie:. You invited me. Why wouldn't I?

Iris hugged me.

Iris:. Meet my boring brother Christopher Hunt. Chris meet Cassie. She's my friend.

Chris:. Pleasure to meet you.

Cassie:. Thank you.

Chris:. I thought people greet back as nice to meet you too or me too.

Cassie:. Yeah. But not for you.

Chris:. Why?

Me:. Because I didn't get any pleasure meeting you. 

Chris tapped the tip of my nose with his index finger.

Chris:. You're one sweet and sour. Aren't you Candy?

   " Back in time"

Man:. Wake the fu*k up.

And again it was a dream.

Man:. Ready for today's treatment?

Cassie:. Are you tired?

Nelson came in the room and whispered something and his boss' ear. He quickly got up and everyone left the room immediately. I could hear some voices so I got to the door and pressed my ear to the door to have a little clear voices. There were only two voices I could hear. One belong to the man. The leader of the kidnappers and the other one I couldn't recognize.

Man 1:. She is too impossible to break. We've tried everything.

Man 2:. You haven't tried enough.

Man 1:. Are you bluffing? We're torturing her, giving her hell but she still refuse to break.

Man 2:. You're useless. You all are. I paid you millions for just one job and you couldn't do that either.

Man 1:. She's trained to resist it all.

Man 2:. You can't do a thing. Open the door.

Man 1:. She'll know about you.

Man 2:. I said open the fuc*king door.

I quickly got back to my place and sat down on the floor. The door shoot opened and a man in the tux came in. I was shocked when I looked at him. Because I knew who he was, Hendrick Black. The only son of the billionaire Richard Black and the CEO of our rival company, Black Enterprises.

Hendrick Black: As I've heard. You're a pure beauty.

Hendrick said as he stroked my cheek with his fingers.

Cassie: Keep your hands to yourself Hendrick. I used to respect you for all the things you've achieved. But now I only think that you're nothing but a cheap bastard, who uses his power to do wrong. Tell me is that about the award or the program I've newly invented.

He grabbed a fistful of my hair.

Hendrick Black: You know nothing about me. Don't worry baby. I'll tell you what kind of demon I really am.  JO

Jo: Yes.

Hendrick Black: I'm staying. She needs lessons by her demon.

Jo: Nelson...

Nelson:Yes boss.

Jo: Get a room ready for Mr Black.

Nelson:Yes boss.

I did not mind at all. Even though Iris tried to talk me through to get me to go shopping alone but I declined. Because I knew it was better to sit home than asking for trouble with Mr Hunt.Scott came in and took his seat. I called the waiter and ordered lunch for both of us.
