‘Because, I say so’Amber's P.O.V My eyes slowly look up to meet with Jack's, he was watching me with a calm yet intense expression as he awaited to hear my response. "Jack? What are you doing here?" I asked nervously. "Answer my question." I slowly start to feel anxiety beginning to rise within me as I look back at him. I didn't plan on having a full-on conversation with him right now.I know for a fact he knows I went out with Gianna but I don't want him to think I'm lying about going to the admissions office too. Jack seems somewhat calm now but I never know with him. And who knows how he might really be feeling about the situation internally. I feel like I'm really walking on eggshells right now and I know I have to be very careful with any and everything I say to him. "I-I was at the admissions office like I told you." I started, feeling myself already beginni
Amber's P.O.V I walk into the classroom, and my body almost instantly begins to shiver from the cold temperature in this room.When Gianna said it was cold in this building, she wasn't lying.Internally, I'm somewhat thankful that I decided to wear long sleeves and a turtleneck today because if I didn't I just know I'd be freezing my ass off. I walk all the way to the back of the classroom in the corner away from everyone to ensure that I'd be left alone the entire period. Once I take my seat I immediately relax my body back into my chair, as I watch more students fill into the classroom. After a few more minutes, the professor makes his way to the front of the classroom before introducing himself to the class. I listen silently as I rest my head in my palms, relaxing my body as his voice fills the space. As I relax my weight against my arms upon my desk, my mind soon starts to take me back to Jack.It's my first day actually attending uni, and the only thing that I c
Amber's P.O.V "You look beautiful." Jack complimented as he began driving away from my dorm and off campus And you look like fucking shit, you fucking cheater. "Thanks." I blandly state as I diverge my eyes away from him before refocusing my attention on the road. Jack places his hand on my thigh as we make our way onto the main roads. As soon as I feel his touch on my skin I immediately cross my legs in order to push jacks hand off of me without seeming rude. "Why did you just do that?" Jack questioned as he slightly scrunched his face together in confusion. "Do what?" I asked, acting as if I didn't know what he was talking about. Jack's eyes diverged from the road and met with mine for a split second before refocusing his attention back. "Never mind, but what type of food are you in the mood for? You can pick what type of restaurant we go to." Jack softly explained.It was in that moment that I felt as though it was in
‘No one loves you like I do. No one.’Amber's P.O.V "Okay, Jack. You're just never wrong are you?" I questioned as I looked over at him with annoyance clear in my tone. "What could I possibly be wrong about? Everything that just came out of my mouth was a factual statement." He said as he relaxed his arm against the chair behind him while looking at me with a curious expression. Before I have the opportunity to respond, our conversation becomes interrupted by our server as he returns the checkbook before placing it down in front of Jack. "Okay! You guys are all set. Have a wonderful rest of your night." The man spoke before sending us both a warm smile and disappearing into the distance. Jack goes to grab the pen, before writing in the booklet in order to leave a tip. He then grabs his card before placing it back into his wallet and rising to his feet. "Let's go." Jack speaks,
Amber's P.O.V I offer him a seductive smile before bending my body down in order to connect my lips with his. Our lips move in a perfect sync, as I continue to slowly grind my hips against his. Jack's hands find their way to the sides of my hips as he pulls my body deeper onto him, causing me to feel his growing erection through his pants. I softly moan into the kiss before slowly pulling away from him; having Jack bite onto my bottom lip in the process. Once our lips are completely disconnected I look down at Jack with pure lust as I admire every single one of his features. My fingers begin to make their way underneath Jack's shirt, causing the fabric to slowly rise with my fingertips as I feel Jack's abs. I continue to look down at Jack with greed as I slightly arch my back and pull at the fabric, indicating that I wanted him to take it off. Jack then let's out a slight chuckle before quickly pulling his shirt off his body. "Your turn
Amber's P.O.V I disconnect my eyes from Jack's gaze before going into his glove compartment in order to find some napkins. Once I find them, I pull out two pieces before using them to wipe away the sticky substance trailing down my leg. After I collect all the liquid into the napkin I then roll it up into a ball before throwing it out the window. (Yikes! Save the earth!) Jack pulls his pants back around his waist before reaching into the back and grabbing our clothes. He hands me my outfit before putting on his shirt; having me do the same. After struggling for about 5 minutes to fully pull my pants back up, I finally succeed. "You wanna smoke? I need a blunt after that shit." Jack offers after lifting his chair back to it's original position. "Sure, I'm down to do whatever it is that you want to do." I explain as I fasten myself in the seatbelt. Jack nods his head at me in response before pulling out of his parking space. He begins driving
Amber's P.O.V "That's good baby I'm really happy for you." I smiled as I turned his phone off. "Thanks." Jack replies as he throws himself down on the bed next to me. He spreads his body out on the mattress, laying on his stomach with his face buried into the sheets. The rooms becomes silent for a few moments as Jack just lays next to me quietly. "Wait, shouldn't you be asleep by now?" Jack questions as he abruptly lifts his head up from the mattress in order to make eye contact with me. "Yeah but I couldn't go to sleep, you guys were kind of loud out there so I decided to just wait for you instead." I lie, causing Jack's face to instantly light up. "Awww baby, you waited for me?" He questioned as he shifted his body to the side in order to pull me closer to him. "Of course babe, why wouldn't I?" I questioned as Jack wraps his arm around my torso before nuzzling his face into the crook of my neck. J
‘Healthy love exists, remember that’Amber's P.O.V I immediately storm my way into the elevator, listening as the building doors slam shut behind me. My fingers apply pressure to button number three, having me impatiently wait to reach my floor level. As soon as the elevator doors shut, I instantly start to feel tears well up in my eyes. I lift my head up and try to blink back my tears, but fail miserably as I feel the warm liquid start to trail down my face.I don't know if I'm crying because I'm upset, or because I'm so angry. The elevator doors slowly reopen, revealing my floor level. I quickly walk down the semi- narrow hallways before reaching my room. A loud frustrated groan escapes my lips as the realization that I don't have any of my things dawns on me. I really don't want to wake Gianna seeing as it's so late, but at this point I don't really have a choice. I take a deep breath and wipe away my tears in e
Jack’s P.O.V Smoke flies throughout the dark and rotted room as we ascend from the safe, having our vision be momentarily blinded. I quickly turn off my flashlight before switching on the laser sight to my gun as we cautiously go to make our escape. As we maneuver our way throughout the burnt structure the loud sound of bullets flying seems to cease, allowing the space to grow eerily silent. The addictive feeling of adrenaline rushing through my bloodstream sends my senses into a heightened state as Zac and I continue to sweep each space in which we walk into. “Rocco, copi?” Zac whispers into the radio attached to his vest as we bring ourselves into a secluded area of the barely standing estate.(Rocco, do you copy?) Static fills the space, having us both curse silently as Rocco was our emergency escape plan. Zac releases a frustrated breath of air as he turns his radio off once again, having him go to raise his gun in the process. As Zac
Jack's P.O.V "I swear I'm going to slit Luca's fucking throat if there's nothing here." Zac spits, as he shuffles in his seat, seemingly tense. I look outside my passengers side window at the dark plot of land, seeing the semi burnt and demolished property. Zac cracks his neck, trying to cope with all of the adrenaline pumping through his bloodstream as he continues to eye down the abandoned estate. "Did he ever say who sent him to collect information?" I question out. Before Zac can answer he is interrupted by the sound of his radio going off, allowing us to hear the static voice of his family's men on the other side. "Clear." Zac immediately takes action, having him quickly jump out of the car with angry footsteps as I go to reload my gun. I quickly hop out of the SUV before going to stand beside Zac, mimicking his pace. "He gave me a fake name. I looked into them, they don't ex
Gianna's P.O.V I sit in complete boredom as I stare down at the professor as she continues her long summoner about physics, no longer finding interest in her words. My eyes slowly find their way over to the empty seat beside me, having a sense of sadness fill my being as I look over at where Amber once used to sit. I feel like such a failure. The sound of the professor dismissing the class snaps me out of my thoughts, having me quickly go to collect my belongings before exiting the classroom. As I make my way through the crowded halls I decide to pull out my phone in order to text Heidi. Queen Heidi👑🥰To Queen Heidi👑🥰: Hey babes! Can I come over? I need to talk to you. Not delivered Frustration immediately wells its way into my chest as I watch my text fail to send due to its lack of service. What the fuck?!!! Why are all of my texts and calls still not going throu
Amber's P.O.V My eyes slowly open to reveal the same godforsaken cell that I've been kept in for what feels like weeks now. It's always the same. Wake up, cry, eat, sleep, repeat.It never changes. A part of me is grateful that I've been placed here because I no longer have to deal with the nonsense of the guards or any of these psychopathic people. But the other part of me is petrified as I know that I'm just here to await my inevitable demise. Slowly, I sit myself up against the hard mattress, feeling my entire body ache as I go to rub my stomach that was now holding my unborn child. A small tear begins to form as I continue to think about all of the terrible outcomes that will take place once I give birth. "I'm so sorry I can't protect you." I whisper to myself, hoping that my child would miraculously be able to hear me. "Mommy loves you very much. Don't ever forget that." I cry, feeling myself become overtaken with e
Giannas P.O.VThe bright sunlight spills into our hotel suite, causing me to slowly awaken. My eyes flutter open, having me look across the room to see that the other queen sized bed was empty and no longer being occupied by Jovana's sleeping form. I slowly rise from my spot on the bed before bringing myself into the living room area of this huge suite. As I walk over to the sofa, I notice Jovana already seated as she scrolls through different shows to watch on the huge flat screen tv. "Goodmorning." I greet as I sit myself down on the opposite end of the couch. "Finally, you're awake!" She says as she turns the tv off, now giving up on what to watch. "I was thinking that maybe we should visit that beach club that our Uber driver from yesterday was talking about. I looked up the empress hotel and their parties look out of this world." She says somewhat excitedly. I nod my head at her words having me look down at m
VDA: These are not real nightclubs in Las Vegas.Gianna's P.O.V "Please fasten your seatbelts. We will begin our descend shortly and welcome to fabulous Las Vegas." The flight attendant says over the loud intercom. A small wave of excitement begins to overtake me as I secure myself within my designated seat.I'm going to find you Amber.No matter what it takes. "Fucking finally! I feel like we've been on this plane forever now!" Heidi whines, causing me to roll my eyes at her dramatics. "It's only been an hour." Jovana states before I have the opportunity to do so myself. "An hour too long. I'd much rather have flown first class." Heidi continues to complain as the plane begins to slowly lose its altitude. "Heidi, we already went over this. If we fly first class then we-" I start to begin before being cut off. "Then we risk being caught by my fath
A Few Hours Later Amber's P.O.V I sit on the hard bed springs for what felt like hours, having hot tears burn my cheeks as I continue to stare blankly at the other side of the room. Why am I here? How long will they keep me here? Why would Jack let this happen to me? Why is this happening to me? Does he actually enjoy having me here? Will Toro actually help me get out of this place? Will I ever get my freedom back? If I never would've went to that party , would this still be happening to me? If I would've listened to Jovana and stayed home that night, would I still be here? Would everything be different if I never would've went to the police? Would I still be here if I never would've missed Jack ? I hate myself. How did I end up in this situation? How will I get out of this situation? I bring my hands up to my forehead, feeling the heavy chains on my wrist as I attempt to massage out the feverish headache in which I was feeling. Harsh hiccups rack my
Amber's P.O.V An involuntary yelp escapes me as Toro's rough hands wrap around my arm. He pulls my body to his side rather aggressively before bringing me towards the only door in this cursed room. My body continues to tremble as he leads me down the narrow halls; having more tears blur my vision as thoughts about what I just witnessed continue to cloud my mind. "Please just let me go! I-I p-promise I don't know a-anything! I told Zac everything I know! Please... you have to b-believe me." I say, begging with the man for dear life as he continues to take me to the unknown. Toro says nothing in response, not even sparing me a single glance as he continue to drag me down the hall towards the elevator in which I originally came from. Uncontrollable sobs continue to escape me as images of Violets blood spilling into the carpet continue to haunt me.I can't believe she's dead. I can't believe Zac just killed her right in front of me
Gianna's P.O.V It's been nearly two months since ambers disappearance and no one seems to know anything. The police have been absolutely no fucking help in this and Xion claims to not have any information that could possibly help me find her. I just don't understand how this could've happened. I've searched the entire internet for information on Zac and his family but I can never find anything useful.The internet makes it seem as if his family are charitable saints that own legitimate businesses and donate to children's hospitals. It's all bullshit! A loud groan escapes my lips as I slam my computer shut in frustration. I push my body off of my bed's frame before going over to my purse and quickly retrieving my dab pen. I inhale a deep breath of smoke before exhaling and releasing all of the built up tension within me. As I stand in the corner of the space my eyes wander over to ambers old side of the room, making me think back to the conversation
