I'm glad they didn't lock me back in the trunk again. Or done anything abusive to me this whole trip. Well, accept the tiny bruises forming on my arm. But the one thing that sucks is they handcuffed me to the door and child-locked it. I guess they're smarter than I gave them credit for. But they only handcuffed me after my 'outburst' I'd given them earlier, which is dumb. Where am I going to go with the child lock?

But the one thing I'm most grateful for is that they haven't figured out that I called Liam. Who knows what they would've done to me if they found out.

"Can someone tell me what's going on? We've been driving nonstop for hours. I still have no clue what you want from me." I blurted out. I'm sick and tired of them. I have the right to know these kinds of things.

"You need to shut up now." The guy in the front seat uttered.

"Well...kidnapper I want answers," I demanded.

"Kidnapper?" He asked, looking at me through the rearview mirror.

"Yes. I don't know your guys' names. So t

    We traced the car to a junkyard forty-five minutes away from the gas station. Then they bought the car from a couple that was trying to sell their car. They also paid them extra money to keep quiet about the type of car they were in. I tried paying them more, but they denied it. Whoever had Melody most likely threatened them to keep quiet. Not to take money from anyone who asked too much about the car. I walked away, knowing that there was nothing else I would be able to do.Two days later.After I walked away into my office and sat down in my chair, my phone started to buzz in my pocket. I pulled it out and it was just Charlie.I answered it and was already annoyed with whatever he had to say, "What do you want, Charlie?""I wanted to see how close we were to finding Melody...you may not see it, but everyone in the mafia can see it. You want her back. And not just for leverage." Charlie explained, "Not anymore at least."I quickly scoffed at him, "I don't know what you're talking abo

    They'd dragged me into the house and I can't believe who it was. That little punk I'm gonna have words with him. He was like my best friend growing up. Besides Thea. Oh, how I missed her. No, he was going to wish he was never born. But once I get out of here I'm gonna kill him. Kill Nick Everson.Woah, Melody. This isn't you. The old you would've gone up and hugged him. Maybe asking him questions about what's going on. He's your other best friend! What the hell happened? Oh wait, I know what happened. Liam happened. I hate playing the victim card, but I'm the victim here!Once the guy let go of me and shoved me into the office I saw only one person in there. Now I can truly see who my new abductors were. When my eyes met there's, tears pricked my eyes. He'd been sitting down and quickly stood up and moved away from his desk."Daddy?" I looked at him and could see tears in his eyes."Hi, pumpkin." He mumbled.That's when I lost it. Tears started to fall, I couldn't stop them from slip

    "Mack?" I shakily said."Hi Melody." Mack said. He walked towards my fathers desk and stood by him."How...you...I saw..." I stuttered."It's a long story Melody, I promise I'll tell you. But we all need to talk with you." Mack politely suggested, pointing at one of the chairs.I stared at him blankly."Melody, please sit down." My father pleaded.I looked at the three of them, upset with each of them."You wanna talk?" I asked."Yes." All three of them mumbled in unison."You have the audacity to ask me to sit down and have a talk with you right after you kidnapped! I get that you guys are my family and stuff but, what the actual hell guys! You locked me in the trunk of a car! You threatened a man's pregnant wife to help you get to me! Then drugged me. And your guys handcuffed me in the car!" I barked.I tried walking away but Nick grabbed my shoulder and shoved me into one of the chairs."Dad let me go." I pleaded.He just sighed at me, "Mel...""Don't call me that." I hissed."Fine,

    Nine?What the hell does he mean by nine?Is it like how many there are, how long someone in our mafia's name is, or is it something else?"Hey boss, I have a quick question for you." Bane said stuffing the phone and computer into his bag."What?" I angrily asked."Um, why did you pick the three of us? Like I'm sure you could've picked other people. I'm just curious as to why we are.""It's because I trust you guys the most. I don't think you could've done this to Charlie. Plus I know you guys were here when I got the phone call from him." I said.Ferrell looked at me surprised for a moment. "What do you mean you knew where we were?" Ferrell asked.I sighed, "I know that when Bane isn't working he's with a girl. And when Ferrell isn't working he's chilling on the couch. And Anthony never misses a meal.""Hey you know I can't miss a meal! I might die!" Anthony stated.We all chuckled at Anthony's statement."You do know you can survive like three weeks without food right?" Bane said.A

    "I'll give you some time to think about it. You have about seven hours to decide what you really want, Melody and Charlie or your mafia. You can't have both.''Nick said. And then he hung up the phone.Mack let go of me and pushed me directly to Nick."Why'd you do that?" Nick asked."Do what?" I asked.He grabbed my arm and pushed me against the wall, "why'd you open your mouth before you were allowed to speak? I told you that you'd get your turn. And what the hell was that scream for!""I'm...I'm sorry. Both times I was ju...just surprised." I answered.He grabbed me again, slamming me into the wall."I don't like being lied to." Nick sneered."I...I swear I'm telling the truth." I quickly argued.I looked toward Mack, but he wasn't even facing me. I could tell he didn't want to see what was happening. I glanced back at Nick and when I looked into his eyes I saw hatred. This time he had emotion. But not the emotion I was hoping for."Nick...I'm sorry. I swear I didn't mean to do that

    I walked back down towards Anthony, Ferrell, and Bane who were all watching something on Bane's phone.I cleared my voice and they looked up and Bane turned his phone off."What's up?" Bane asked."Tennessee." That was all I managed to say."What the hell is in Tennessee?" Bane asked again."Charlie and Melody..." I paused and took in a deep breath, "Hopefully."They all jumped up off the couch and raced to the car.Before I walked out the door I heard an out-of-breath sound coming toward me. I thought it was just Emily. She had in her hand a massive thing of paper in a folder.I sighed, "What Emily? I was just about to leave.""Well Charlie was looking into something and it got him kidnapped, correct?" Emily asked."Yes, it did. Now are you stating facts or is there something else you'd like to tell me?" I grunted."Well, I'd like to know why..." Emily looked around making sure no one was around us before she leaned in. "Why didn't you tell me that he thinks it might be one of the gu

    I kept running. I don't know how far behind they are from me. But I know if I look, I won't get the chance to get out again."Melody!" Nick yelled, "Come on, let's just go back to the house and we can have something to eat."I was hungry and tired. I hadn't eaten since I got taken by Nick. Or slept very well either. But I'm not going to give myself up to him for food or sleep. If I have to eat or sleep in the forest...so be it.If I do eat something, how am I going to remember what is poisonous or is safe to eat? This is why I should've listened to my teachers about this kinda stuff.I heard their footsteps getting closer and closer to me. I know there's no way out of this for me. They will find me and I will be traded off for whatever the mysterious guy wants from me."Mel, come on. You have no family left. You have no place to turn to. Everyone you love dies on you. And whose fault is that?" Nick paused.I waited for an answer but none came. At that moment I felt a hand being plac

    Unknowns POV"How far are you out?" James asked me."Well my flight landed about an hour ago so I should be there in about two hours. I'm coming there, no need to bring her to me. Stay there until I arrive." I responded.James sighed, "Fine. Just hurry up this girl you're obsessing over is a pain in the ass. You didn't tell me she was going to be this much trouble." "Well, find some way to make her comply till I get there." James chuckled, "Yeah right, but whatever you want goes." "That's right. So make it happen James." I suggested, "Whatever." James hung up the phone and that's when I pushed the gas pedal harder. I want her in my arms as quickly as possible. The first time we met her hair smelled like mangos. Her kindness towards others and her perfect smile. Her hands were always so smooth when I grabbed them. And the way her eyes sparkled when the sun hit her was perfect. And her perfect body shape made people turn heads. She may be broken in some ways, but to me she is mor

    Five years later.Melody's POVEver since Liam walked out of the hospital telling me he never loved me I never saw him again. I knew from that day on I'd never see him again. Or any of his men again. And I never wanted to. He broke my heart. Though we never became a thing we had our moments. There were days we got close to kissing and all that romantic stuff. But someone would walk in and would ruin the moment. It's as if something in this world didn't want us to be together. But I never looked for him like some girls would. Why would I want someone who broke my heart? I didn't want anything to do with him or his mafia. I moved on and started over. I made a new life for myself and created a new me. I moved from New York to Washington. I know that's pretty far away from New York. But I didn't have anyone left there. I went to apologize to Thea but she already left for San Francisco. She probably wouldn't forgive me after what I did to her. How I lied to her how I yelled at her for no

    "Hey mom, hey dad." I greeted walking into the kitchen."Hey sweetie, I made your favorite." My mom said putting a scrambled egg with two chocolate chip pancakes with it. And even put the best thing with it.Hash Browns. You can't go wrong with Hash Browns. "Have you seen dad, mom?" I asked glancing around the kitchen."He had some work he needed to do first.""What's up, Mrs. Fawson!" Thea shouted, barging into the house. That girl has no personal space."Hi, Thea." My mom slightly groaned. She's not a big fan of Thea. My father doesn't like her either which isn't surprising. Thea's got one of those personalities that is a tad harder to handle. Nonetheless, she's my best friend. She's the only reason why I go to school.As I finished my breakfast I noticed how fancy my mom looked. She was in one of her nicer outfits."Where are you going, mom?" I asked grabbing my backpack."Oh, I and your father are meeting with some friends. We're discussing a business opportunity today.""Oh with

    I woke up, doing my morning routine. As I saw myself in the mirror. Dark circles started forming underneath my eyes. I looked exhausted and looked like I was about to kill someone. The second I thought that I decided I needed to blow some steam off. And when I mean blow steam off, I'm going to the gym. After I started my workout, I didn't stop until my hands were bleeding badly and started to bruise. I jumped in the shower that was near the gym and stayed in there for who knows how long. Once I jumped out, I put on new clothes that I'd brought with me. I then grabbed the first aid kit that was stashed away in case of blood and bruises. Which I have.I walked out of the gym and headed towards the tech room and saw something...unexpected.Wilson and Emily making out. They didn't seem to notice me, so I cleared my throat. They both looked at me and they both pushed away from each other. "Look, sir..." Wilson started before I cut him off."You can do whatever you want. Both of you are

    Charlie! I felt relieved that he was okay. I hope his arms are okay, though. "Well, I was hoping you'd be out for a while longer," Payton admitted.I heard a slight chuckle from Charlie, "I was never out. Nick sucks at knocking people out.""I will shoot him." Payton threatened."You even try pulling the trigger, you will be dead before you blink an eye." Charlie threatened back. I got pulled back a bit by Nick, further away from Payton and Charlie."What are you..." I started but got cut off when Nick's hand covered my mouth."If you want anyone you care about to survive, you're going to do exactly what I say..." Nick whispered. He leaned directly next to my ear, his hot breath on my ear and a little on my neck, "I know Mack is on the driver's side of the van..."Mack? What's he doing here?"He's betrayed us one too many times for my taste. Here's what you're going to do. You're going to distract him while I knock him out. If you don't help me, I'll kill Mack first. Possibly kill

    My heart started to beat so fast that my heart was going to jump out. I don't know how I'm supposed to be taking all of this. Am I supposed to say, 'Do what he wants' or, 'Don't listen to him! He's going to kill me and you, regardless of what you do.' This is why I don't develop feelings for people anymore. I've had my heart repeatedly broken, and I don't know how much more heartbreak I can take. "What's it going to be, Mr. King, helping me or fight for love? Especially when you know, regardless of what, I'll get what I want either way."Liam looked at me directly in the eyes, with what I saw in his eyes was they were dark and clouded. His face completely calm and showed no emotion. He didn't seem to have any sign that he cared what could happen next. That Liam didn't mean it when he said I love you.And that last thought terrified me to my core. I'm not ready to die! I'm 21! "Follow me." Liam grumbled. He quickly turned around towards the door and just walked out. Nick went out,

    My father was holding my girl away from me...my girl! I don't care if he's family, she's family...she's my home.Home.I looked at Melody and her eyes were all red and a tad bit puffy. She seemed to have calmed down a bit, which is good. I don't need her doing something ridiculous that's going to possibly get her hurt or killed. I don't know what I'd do if she was hurt even more by them. And if she died right here, I know I'll never be the same again. I eyed Payton closely, just as Charlie had been doing. I could see it in his eyes, the way he watched each step Payton took and where Payton's eyes were at. Unfortunately, they were either at me or Melody. "Charlie, have a seat...please." Payton ordered, a smirk forming on his face.I looked at Charlie from the corner of my eye and saw all the color from his face immediately drain. We both knew what could happen to us if we didn't listen to Payton, but the thing that scared me the most was what he could do to Melody.Charlie considere

    It's been a few minutes since I left her there alone with Payton. My gut told me minutes ago to rush in there to make sure she was fine. I heard yelling in there. I almost went in there, but Charlie tapped my shoulder, telling me to wait. So, I decided to listened to him and stay put. "Liam, come in here, please!" Melody shouted. I touched the door handle and that feeling that something was wrong increased significantly. As we entered the room, I noticed that Payton had gotten out of his chair and was covering Melody's mouth with one hand. His other hand had a knife near her throat.Charlie and I went for our guns when a sob came from Melody. Payton had put it right at her throat. It was close enough that if she moved, she was a goner. We both moved our hands away from our guns, and he moved the knife a bit away from her throat. I looked more closely at her and saw both hands were behind her back, while her eyes were red and puffy. Why would he do this to her? I thought he loved he

    I started to wake up to someone yelling. And it wasn't just me who woke up. Bane, Ferrell, Charlie, and Anthony had also woken up. We all turned our heads towards Melody, who was screaming and crying in her sleep. All of us shot up from our spots and raced towards her. "Melody wake up." I calmly pleaded. If it isn't bad, maybe that should wake her up. She didn't wake up. Just more tears streamed down her face."Please stop!" She pleaded."What the heck is she dreaming about?" Bane asked."HOW THE HELL WOULD I KNOW! IT'S NOT LIKE I CAN READ MINDS OR SEE INTO PEOPLE'S MINDS!" I shouted."Yes, I... I understand." She mumbled. A few moments later, she started crying harder than before.Screw this."MELODY WAKE UP!" I shouted.Her eyes opened quickly, and she gave us all a blank stare."Mel, are you okay?" I asked. She didn't say anything and as I was just about to say it again she started to scream again."Stay away from me!" She shouted at a the wall behind us.We all looked to where sh

    Looking at the view from the sky, I wondered one thing.Would I survive jumping out of a plan this high up without a parachute? Like, honestly, I'd give anything just to get away from them. They've been nothing but cruel to me the second I met them. Honestly, I don't feel welcome at the moment. Especially, every time I shifted in my seat, they all looked at me as if I were going to do something stupid. Which I might if I'm being honest with myself. "You know you should get some sleep." I turned around to see that it was Charlie who had said that."I'm okay." I mumbled. Charlie just sighed and didn't push me to sleep on the flight any further. Which I'm grateful for, especially since I'm not even tired. Okay, maybe just a little tired. But I'm not sleeping on this flight or anywhere near them. Payton and I are gonna escape with Nick, Clark, and James and then that's when I'll sleep. Well, possibly if they don't kill them first. Which is a very slim chance at this point. The weird
