Conversations Silver was still tied to the stone bench. she reeked from the sweat and grime that had accumulated over the last days. she was only allowed a bathroom break once a day and that was to pee not bath. The smell of her own body and urine filled her nostrils and it disgusted her beyond words. She couldn't do this anymore. This feeling of hopelessness was eating her up from the inside but she just didn’t know what to do about it. She had been mainly left on her own, tied to one place since she got here. it drove her crazy, the solitary, not being able to communicate with other humans or do anything except stare at the bare walls, she could slowly feel herself go crazy as the days went by.The only beating she had received was from Stella the other day, asides that she wasn’t ever tortured or questioned. She wondered what Jamal wanted from her though, why had she been kidnapped? asides from the story he told her the other day, he had mostly left her alone. sometimes drugging
SilverSilver looked at the massive building in front of her, the buzzing crowd around causing her ears to ring and a small headache begin to throb behind her eyelids. She never was able to deal with a lot of noise or people, and why she felt working in a bar was suitable for her, she’ll never be able to explain. The pay was good though and at this point she just really wanted something to support herself, so she’ll deal with her phobia in silence. Flattening down her shirt, she pushed her glasses higher up on her nose, saying hello to Erik, the giant of a bouncer that stood just outside the building, guarding the place. She made her way into the bar. The booming sound of the music, giving her a sensation that her heart was beating in her throat, making her swallow a few times in order to adjust. No matter how many times she walked through the doors of the bar, she never got used to the scenario. She’d never understand why the music was so loud or why the people in it thought it was
The DriveSilver pushed past the tables, struggling to balance the drinks in her hands, and careful to not trip on her own foot. She could see that the man that had made the order for the group, already had his eyes on her and that made her shiver in fear. His lingering gaze too piercing for comfort. Silver couldn’t read the expressions that danced through his face and that made it even harder for her to bear. Not knowing what he was thinking about caused her chest to hurt. She placed the tray of drinks carefully on the table, sinking in on herself as a couple other members of the group raised their head to acknowledge her. She noticed though, how the powerful man with beautiful blue eyes that she had been looking at earlier, kept typing furiously on his phone and didn’t bother to acknowledge her, not even for a second. “Your drinks, sir.” She said in a voice barely above a whisper, scared that if she spoke louder, she might be punished for it. They looked like the kind of people to
Missing Flash drive“What do you mean you lost it?” Rodriguez roared in rage at Jared. The other man taking a step back, looking at the table that stood between himself and Rodriguez wondering if it was enough to shield him from the older guy’s wrath. “I thought I put it back into the brief last night but it seems I didn’t.” Jared replied, doing his best to sound like he wasn’t shaken to the very core by the anger that poured out of Rodriguez in waves. He knew all too well what happened when his boss lost his temper. No one wanted to be at the receiving end of Rodriguez wrath. Taking another step back, to put even more distance between himself and the fuming Rodriguez, like that would help the situation. He cleared his throat once, twice, before facing Rodriguez once more. Pleading for mercy with his eyes. “I had a couple of our men try to retrace our steps from the last time we saw it at the bar till we got back to the house, and there was nothing.” He replied scratching lightly at
Stalking HerAs he sat in his car, watching, waiting. He tapped an impatient finger on the wheel in front of him, waiting for her. A sadistic smile spreading on his lips at the though of how much torture he was about to dish. This one will be a good one, he could just feel it. Silver shook her head at her obviously wrong decision to drive, the entire parking lot was filled and she could just guess how packed the mall would be at this time. She sighed defeatedly, regretting why she had even agreed to meet Elina here. While her best friend was the outgoing, extroverted, and loud between them, she was the complete opposite, shying away from crowds, noise and the lot. Sighing once more she backed her car into the street and parked close to the end of it, grumbling to herself about how she’d have to walk the long distance to and from the mall. She checked her image in the mirror once before finally exiting her car, locking the doors behind her and tucking her keys into her bag. A sudden
The Phone Calls Silver and Elina finished their food, making their way out of the diner and back into the mall, holding hands like typical female best friends“Thank you for paying, you didn’t have to.” Silver said quietly to Elina. “Oh come on! It’s my treat, besides I invited you.”Elina replied, in her ever cheerful voice. “Now let’s go shopping! Come on!” She quirked pulling Silver with more force than required. Silver wasn’t difficult to pull in the first place, she was as light as a feather. “I don’t really need anything.” Silver shrugged, chewing on her bottom lip. Elina scoffed in response, rolling her eyes and shaking her head. “You’re a girl honey, you always need something.” She dragged Silver into the nearest store, eyeing up the different clothing, as she traced her fingers along the different dresses, studying them, eyes shining with excitement.“This one here, this is nice. Goes with your sweet brown skin.” Announced Elina, holding up a pretty yellow summer dress,
Living in FearRodriguez sat in his office, tapping his fingers on the closed MacBook in front of him. He flexed his fingers, the urge to strangle something or someone was overwhelming. Huffing in annoyance he squeezed his eyes shut to try and get his dark urges under control. He had worked tirelessly for the information that he had gotten. Putting his life on the line, betraying alliances; this one he was sure would come back to bite his ass, but having the complete operation had been a sure way to calm them. Knowing that some things had been done for the greater good of all was the only thing that had been needed to restore peace, but he didn’t have that anymore. Things were about to fall apart for him, and he’d be damned if he let that happen. Swiveling in his chair, he faced the floor to ceiling windows. That had been the best addition to his office. Something about being able to watch the world around you without being watched gave him a surge of power. He enjoyed that sort of t
KidnappedSilver took a sweep of her room once more, checking for clues other than the missing drive that there had been another person in her room. And not a single thing looked out of place, even her laptop sat in the exact spot that she left it.Tears pricked at her eyes and her plump lips wobbled in utter desolation as she it dawned on her, just how much of her little world was falling apart in the space of one day. Had it been the flash drive all along? Was it the Russian men after her? The man at the mall, was he a part of their group? She didn’t recognize him as one of the men she had seen a night before though, so maybe he was sent by them? She picked her favorite teddy from the bed, it was a small bear that had once been white but had faded with wash and time, it had being a gift from a special person in her past.The little brown eyes of her bear brought back memories that she didn’t want to indulge at the moment, not with the chaos happening around her. It helped to comfo

Rodriguez was sat in his office, he held a pen in his hands, slowly popping it in and out. His eyes were on the bookshelf on the right of the office wall, staring but not seeing anything. His gaze drifted back to the sofas that surrounded the small table in the middle of his office and for some reason all he could think about was Silver and all the times she had been in there, she had looked so beautiful that particular day, and her face when she come into his office to speak to Aiden and how much he adored that smile of hers; how soft her hair felt under his fingers…how he just wanted to be able to touch her every day.He missed her, he missed her so much but then she just seemed to have disappeared he had tried everything to get her back, but there were no leads, no clues, except the several holes in the wall which did not exactly tell him much. It took everything he had to not burst into tears or to just run off to find her in the streets, he didn’t mind going from house to hous
Seducing The Mafia DonStella was parked in front of the mansion once again, she smiled to herself when she realized that this time there was no Silver in her way. She could see the security at the gate come forward to address her. She had not seen this face before in her last couple of trips here. So maybe he was new? That was good for her. The newer ones were always easier to manipulate. She rolled down the glass of her window and smiled at his furrowed eyebrows. “I’m here to see the Don.” she stated simply, flashing her pearly whites at him, causing the man to flush a little at the action. He cleared his throat though, turning back to look at her.“He is not taking any visitors at the moment.” he said. Stella nodded her head in fake understanding, gently wobbling her lips, she looked to the man with puppy dog eyes pulling out the big guns. It was her charm, making men succumb to her and it always worked. Well except when it came to Rodriguez, but she was about to change that. “
The Story“Let me tell you a quick story Silver.” Jamal began dramatically. Pulling a chair to sit in front of Silver like he had done the last time. Silver spared him a bored expression, turning her head away from him to stare at the other side of the wall. A sign that she wasn’t interested in what he had to say. It did nothing to phase the grey eyed man though, as he merely let out a breath of air before starting. “When I was a boy my father died and I had to move to live with his sister.” He paused letting the few words sink into Silver’s mind. The latter having already turned her head in his direction, finally granting him a listening ear.“Although the death of my father was such a painful ordeal it became better, maybe just a little easier to bear when I moved to be with my cousin. We finally became close friends over the years, we were best friends in fact. Almost inseparable. Then one day after a fight our parents; well his parents, but at this point they were mine as well.
Meeting The MistressSilver felt a tap on her face. She tried to wake up from her deep slumber, the effect of the drug causing her mind to reel, she moved to sit up when she discovered that she couldn’t move at all. She blinked her eyes rapidly trying to get the black spots dancing in front of her eyes to go away. She tried instead to shift in her spot but she couldn't. There was a large chain attached to her waist that held him down firmly against a concrete bed in the middle of a room. She had been moved, she realized. The metal links were digging into her skin and she could feel the strain of the links against her legs. Her ankles also burned from the chains that had been used in holding her to the bed. It had only been a few minutes of her being awake and there were already tears streaming down her cheeks. She had been here before, this wasn’t new. Not exactly. Although it had been very different being bound on that chair in Rodriguez home but it wasn’t entirely new to her, but
RageRodriguez was completely beside himself from the moment that he realized that Silver was missing, he couldn’t believe that from right under his nose, the love of his life had been taken away from him. He went into a near mad state trying to comprehend the fact that he had done nothing to protect her, and that had been all he had wanted to do ever since the start of it all, from the moment that he had seen her tied up in that room in his house, all he had wanted was to protect her.She was so much like a child, he didn’t want her to go through this kind of pain, not again. Not when he didn’t know the motive of whoever had taken her or who they were in the first place. He knew that he was responsible for her first kidnap but it didn’t mean that he wanted her to have another one. Not when he had fallen in love with her; that thought scared him. Was he really in love with Silver? At what point did it happen? Why did it take her being kidnapped for him to admit it to himself? Now he
Kidnapped AgainSilver woke up to severe pains, she felt dizzy and nausea filled her. Her eyes shot open when as the memory of the previous night hit her. She had opened her eyes to an empty bed and the door swung wide open, Rodriguez nowhere to be found, and the ruckus from downstairs drawing her attention. That was not what had woken her though, she had woken up to feel eyes on her, creepy eyes watching her and when she looked a masked man had been standing close to the window watching her, almost as if he had been waiting for her to realize he was in the room, she watched as he moved into the room but before she could react though, a stinging pain shot through her arms, making her go lax and fall into a deep sleep. The dizzy feeling was terribly hard to shake. What kind of drugs had they used on her? She felt like she couldn’t breathe and her entire body ached. “You're awake! Welcome back dear. It’s a pleasure meeting you. Again.” Said a familiar voice one that she thought and h
FireThe screams seemed so far away and Rodriguez felt like he was stuck in a terrible dream. A horrible, horrible nightmare. He could see everything, feel his body tremble with every passing second as he watched his father being ripped apart in front of him. The blood staining the ground coloring everything red, including his vision. There had been blood everywhere that day and it still haunted him, even now. He knew that he was having a nightmare, but getting out of it was the problem. Somehow all of a sudden, a sound penetrated his dreamlike state, forcefully bringing him from his nightmare. “No!” Rodriguez’s shout pierced through the fog that had filled his brain and his world came back into focus in a flash of light. He had not had a single nightmare for years now. This memory was one that he had kept locked, far away. He looked around frantically, hoping someone would hear him and save him. His eyes caught sight of Silver’s wild curls beside him and the sight helped calm him
PlanningRodriguez was sat in his office, surrounded by his men. The drama from the last couple of days needed some attention. They had to sort it out in order to not be caught unaware. Aiden’s last words to him had been stuck at the back of his head for the last couple of days and it bothered him more than he could admit. There was a spy in his household? His men knew that the punishment for betrayal was death, it wasn’t something that would ever be taken lightly. So who could be stupid enough to do such a thing and at what cost? He looked round at the faces of the men, perhaps hoping that the spy would wear it on their face, he shook his head slightly at the silly thought. He had only his most trusted men with him at the moment. Bringing the number of them in the room to five. And he hoped with everything that the spy was any of the four men in the space. Taking a deep breath, he finally addressed them. “A lot has happened in the last week and I called you all here so we could th
