3: he is leaning in

"What the fuck are you doing? Let me out of this car!" I raised my voice as I banged on the expensive glass as if my minimal effort would shatter it.

"This is kidnapping for the love of God, let me out of here!" I cried, "I swear I'd call cops on you!' I screamed. I had been arrested so many times for domestic things, like being in a strip club, illegal sex work, and I definitely would stay from the police but this man didn't know thet so I could threaten him. He for one was not appearing threatened. 

I knew there was no saving me so I gave up talking. I hugged my arms and widened my eyes. This definitely had something to do with Park. What if he wanted to kill me for finding out about his identity?

I gulped and looked out the window to see if I could capture any landmarks but there was none.

So many questions ran through my head, why would someone as wealthy as Park want to venture into illegal deals? What would Alex do without me? 

I swallowed my questions, knowing we were headed somewhere at least and I'd just have to find out…

*

The heavy built man finally stopped the car and that made me lift my head reflexively. He had parked in front of a mansion. From the gate, one could already see the view from here even in the night sky. It was illuminated from inside with the brightest lights I'd ever seen. There was a pool right in the middle of the n- shaped house. My jaw dropped to the floor as I stepped out of the car to the chilling night time breeze.

"Okay so is this heaven and what it looks like?" I asked him rhetorically, eyeing the neatly trimmed rows of small trees lining the floor in a maze.

"Follow me." He spoke for the first time, causing me to freeze. His deep voice was the key to my soul. He sounded like one of those radio presenters you never wanted to stop listening to.

I followed behind him quietly. If this was where I'd been kidnapped to, maybe it wasn't so bad after all.

"Okay this is paradise and all but what are you going to do to me? I need my phone back, I have to let my friend know I'm doing fine." I said.

He ignored me and let me into the living room and as if what this hotel looking building was outside, was not enough, the interior was even crazier.

I gasped at the sight of the numerous stairs in the room. The floor was a brown marble and spiral steps that led to a balcony with a view of a sea beside the house stood at a lateral part of the house.

The nameless man looked up at me and nodded in the direction of the steps, signalling that I followed after him.

This time, I didn't resist because,  curiosity. We got to the room on the first floor and my eyes went blank. It was empty except for a bed in the center of the black marble floor and the white painted room didn't even possess a curtain.

"One would expect that with all of these dramatic ass buildings, this room would be made of gold." I scoffed at him but that was when I heard a door shut behind me. I ran to it with a gasp and banged furiously when I heard the click that followed. "You son of a gun, why would you lock me in here?" I snapped at him but there was nothing. I knew he wasn't coming back and so I gave it up and went to sit by the edge of  the bed. What did these people want with me? What were they going to do to me?

I closed my eyes and had no idea when

I fell asleep on that huge, mighty bed.

*

"Bowie, stop." I groaned. Bowie didn't stop. He was hovering over me. "Bowie, I said go outside." I raised my voice this time, tilting my head from left to right. I still wanted to enjoy my beauty sleep.

"What is a Bowie?" A deep, scratchy voice filled my ears and that made me snap my eyes fully open.

A shirtless man was only a few inches above me, his tall body frame occupying the air. His hands were rested by my side and he looked like he was lost in thoughts.

I gasped and tried to sit up but there was barely any space for me to.

It was Anthony and for some reason, he was leaning his face closer to mine.

"Wh..what are you doing?" I gulped.

    This did not stop me from increasing my pace. I was out of breath and I had barely run anywhere. The maze of grass was confusing for me but wherever I saw a path, I took it.It was not surprising that one of them soon caught up with me. I groaned, struggling to pull free from his tight grip as he pressed my back against his chest to secure me in place."Let me go you son of a bitch!" I yelled, pressing my barefoot against his. That did not affect him as he held me even tighter."What the fuck is this bitch's problem?" Anthony stepped in front of me, taking my hand from my captive whom I now identified to be Jay. His red hair seemed to annoy me now.

    "What the fuck?" I yelled, running towards the bed. I had no idea who she was but I wanted to get as far away from her as I could possibly get."Jenny!" Vic gasped, coming after her. I had climbed on the bed, my hands shielding my face in case of unpredictable attack."What the fuck Jenny, have you gone mad?" He asked her like it wasn't obvious, pulling her back by the arm."This is what you have been up to, huh? You fucking monster. You haven't answered my phone calls in forever, and you refused to see me in the last four months! And I come back here just to find that you are with some...some..." she trailed off and turned to look at me with disgust, "some other bitch!""Hey, watch your mouth!" I snapped back, unable to take the insults."Look at her, she even has the chance to talk back." She was amused by my response and was not hiding it. "I could kill this woman." She cried, failing as she

    “There is really nothing to know about me.” I began and it was the truth. How was I supposed to tell him that I was a sex worker? I would normally not care but for some weird reason, I did not want Anthony to judge me.“Let us go to bed then.” He shrugged, getting to his feet.My eyes followed this movement. There was so much to know about this strange man. I was yet to accept that this was reality. How did anyone just suggest going to bed when they thought there was no solution to what they were looking for.“Okay… I reluctantly accepted, standing up after him.Anthony led me to a different bedroom with a strange familiar scent I couldn't seem to remember.

    I stood still in confusion, wondering what Vic was referring to. It was after a few seconds it hit me."My period?" I wondered."Oh, shit." He was panicking too much for his own good. He opened the back door and leaned in to grab a jacket.He pulled me closer to him so my back was against him and proceeded to wrap the jacket around my waist. I held my breathe in that short time, wondering what he was going to do to me."I'm so sorry." He pulled away after securing the jacket in place, "I had no idea, else, I'd have found a way to stay home and let you get ready. You must be so embarrassed." He couldn't maintain eye contact with me."For one, you look like the embarrassed one." I teased, pulling the sleeves of the black jacket he had used on me, making it tighter. "I lost track of my date. It's fine." I shrugged, "just get me some pain killers and a tampon and I'll be fine. It's just blood, calm your horses." I chuckled. I thought it was cute

    Anthony didn't wait for me to make my mind up. He walked to my side, held my hand and led me out of the room after shooting a glare at Vic. Something was definitely up with these two."What do you want?!" I snapped at him, releasing myself from his grip. I didn't want him returning to the cold version I had initially met. I doubted that I would be able to keep up with it."When you two went out, where did he leave you?" He asked me."In the car?" I said with furrowed eyebrows. "Why are you getting so mad? I didn't run away or anything. If you didn't trust him, then why did you let him take me along?" I wondered. These men would never stop amusing me.Anthony clenched his fist by his side and nodded, "fine, let's head back into the house." He said."Wait." I stopped him, holding his hand. He looked at it for a few seconds before looking at me."Sorry." I apologised and let go. "Listen, you guys have decided to keep me here and you won't doubl

    I felt multiple emotions run through me at the same time. I was panicking and staring at the bleeding man, "you have killed him." I continued to chant in fear, backing away from bogh men.Anthony just bent down to check for a pulse. "He's alive." He spat on the floor. His knickles were a bright red and he was drenched in sweat."Well, are you gping to call 911 or are we just going to leave him here to doe?" I was worried. The fight seemed so rushed, yet so deadly."Antonio is a bustard.""You didn't tell me you had a twin brother, or that he was crazy. How many more secrets do you have for wellness sake!"

I pushed my hair into a ponytail, licking my lower lip that was dry just so I could feel calm."We have to leave now." He simply said."What?" I frowned, wondering if he was in his right senses. "I thought you said it was safe here." I recounted his words from earlier."There's no time to waste, just hurry up." He sounded impatient and scared and that got to me."O… kay, do I take my bags or nah?" I was already walking to his side."No." He held my wrist, a little too aggressive if I was asked."Well," my eyes averted to my dog sitting in a corner, watching the

Whoever had her would be far gone by now if I judged with the time since I came back into the room.I stuffed my hands into my pocket, the last trace of sleep in me having vanished into fear and anxiety. I thought of all the possible places she could be, and who would have left the note. It couldn't be my dealers, they would never kidnap her, they would rather just end her life.I tried to rack my head for what it could be. If it was not some sort of sorcery, the security in here was too tight to let anyone slip away like that.Vic returned my text to remind m

    "Why?" I raised my eyebrows. Seeing him brought back his words from earlier and I would do anything to discard him from my sight.Anthony exchanged a look with his friends and like they were communicating in a different language, the other boys left to do what they wanted.Anthony took a chair across from me, pulled it out and sat on it, his hands on the table. "I'm moving you out of the house, we know it is clearly not safe to stay here anymore, plus, taking you to the fight, you know the rules of the game, everyone on street will know about the fight, and there is a possibility we bump into Alex, and you can get enough time to explain things to him." He said.

    I woke up the next morning to an empty bed. I was still naked under the bed sheets. I pushed the blanket up to conceal my other breast that was out. I held the blanket to my chest and looked around to see if I would catch sight of Anthony anywhere. He couldn't have left me, this was not some hotel, it was literally where he lived.On cue, I heard flushing sounds from the bathroom, accompanied by running water.Anthony came out of the bathroom drying his hands with the towel. Seeing his face brought back instant memories from last night. We had sex for hours, round after round. I had no idea when we had slept off. When he was still staring at me, I offered him a gentle smile that wiped off my face when he looked away with… a glare?

    Anthony seemed to be waiting for my reaction when he pulled away. My gaze darted over his face for a second before I pulled him closer for a kiss. That stirred up whatever hidden emotions we conveyed.We maintained the touch of our lips as we backed towards the bed. I let his back be our sight until we hit the edge of the bed. Anthony fell flat on the bed and I on top of him. Uncompliant strands of hair fell to frame my face even after I pushed them backwards.Like a planned work, he took my shirt over my head. I was grateful I had gotten rid of my tampon beforehand because this was definitely leading to something.Submissively, I allowed him to toss my shirt across the floor, I loved the rough man he was birthing in the heat of the moment.

    "It's an anxiety attack." He muttered under his breath, taking me by surprise. Anyone came off as the type of man that was mentally strong. "Oh my God." I swallowed, leading him to the bed. "Do you take pills for them?" I hated that I had no education on these sorts of things so I was lost on what to do. "Call Jay. Tell him we are at the wooden cabin." He muttered, panting heavily. With shaky hands, I took his phone from him and hurried to search for Jay's name on his contact list. His screen was cracked and I knew it was from the effect of the accident. "Are you okay?" I turned to Anthony while the phone rang. He shook his head but it was a lie.

    The car was no longer in Anthony's control. I was panicking too much to even want to pay attention to his situation.Even in my seatbelt, the bumpy trail down that hill caused me to hit my head against the roof of the car, my face against the glass and it kept on like that.I saw death face to face and in that moment, there was nothing but blankness.We got to the end of the hill but there still was no control over the car, especially at the speed it was going.There was a huge tree just in front of us and right before we crashed into it, Anthony used the air bags.The force from hitting the tree brought the vehicle to a halt and the smoking car filled inside with fumes that caused us to cough hard."Are you okay?!" He asked me, out of breath. How did he have the strength to talk?He hurried out of his seat belt and helped me out of mine.Anthony came out of the car and I tried to go out the door on my side but it was stuck. I re

    "So you will remain standing where you are." Vic frowned, his target being Anthony."What is going on?!" Jay cut in, stepping forward.This was the only thing that could bring Five to pay attention. He put his phone town and stored at Vic like he was a mad man.I didn’t think they were shocked to see that he had a damn gun. I was terrified and could die on that spot if someone didn't intervene in the next second."Let her go." He snapped at Anthony.Anthony held my hand tight, keeping me behind him. His grip was so firm, it was starting to hurt my wrist. "I’m leaving with her and there is nothing you can do."I thought Anthony was crazy. This man was literally holding a gun, loaded for that matter."Damn, I said let her go!" Vic yelled, shooting at the ceiling.I had heard gun shots in movies but I never knew they would be so loud.I shrieked and pulled free from Anthony, blocking my ears from the after effect and a loud
