2. That night 2

Her heart raced uncontrollably due to the intensity of the situation, not sure of what to prepare for, kidnap or even death were the only thoughts in her head.

For a moment, she stood frozen due to the unexpected traumatic experience but was quick to regain consciousness and began struggling with whoever it was that held her.

She grabbed his hand which covered her mouth and tried pulling it out but his grip was too strong to be released by her muscular strength.

He caught her arm using his other hand and pinned her tightly to his chest so she was unable to break free.

Kloe tried screaming for help but only a little moan could escape her vocal organs.

"Shut up," He whispered into her left ear before walking backward a step at a time.

He walked her up the stairs on tip toes making sure to be as quiet as possible but quickened his pace upon hearing the sounds of a stumping foot coming up the stairs.

Still holding onto her, he opened a door behind him and walked him.

The first thing Kloe saw was blood on the doorstep and she was more frightened as she concluded that she would be killed on the spot.

Her eyes followed the trail of blood up to where it came from and let out a faint gasp as she saw the dead body of her security guard with his throat still spilling liters of blood and three of her servants shivering in fear with their hands tied to their back.

Before she could process the information received by her eyes, she was pushed to the hard floor into the pool of blood.

"Is that all?" A tall man dressed in a black leather jacket asked.

He emitted a cold Aura with a stare that could kill, he held a blood-stained sheath, and judging by the length, it was close enough to the length of a sword.

"No sir, the others escaped but they are still somewhere in the building," The man who had grabbed Kloe replied smirking sanctimoniously.

Kloe turned immediately to see the face of her kidnapper as she thought and her eyes met a crystal clear blue eyed man, muscular built and worth drooling over but Kloe stared at him in a fit of rage.

"Go find them and fast!" Ordered the man in a black leathered jacket.

"What do you want?" Kloe managed to ask but received a resounding slap as a response.

"Shut up and listen to me Kloe, I didn't come here to joke, I have a simple job here so be quiet and let me do what I was asked to do!" He yelled and began walking around all over the place.

"Please," Kloe begged

"I'll give you whatever you want just mention it...

"I said shut up!" He yelled in a loud voice.

Startled Kloe swiftly placed her hands over her lips waving her hand towards him in negativity pleading for mercy without a word.

The neck of her clothing was already soaked in tears and her naturally brown eyes turned red.

"You stand up!" The leather jacket man said to one of her servants who were already terrified beyond comprehension.

The servant in question was lost in a traumatic world waiting for her death, she didn't notice that she was called upon to stand up until she was brought back to reality with a slap to the face.

"I said stand up!" He ordered again but realized that she was tied up, he let out a disdainful sigh before dragging her up and untying her legs and then asking her to move into the bathroom.

She glanced at Kloe before walking into the bathroom submissively, she walked in and he walked in behind her and closed the door shut.

Kloe took it as a good chance to escape her unpredictable fate, she cast a pitiful look at her servants who sat there and rushed to free them.

The knots were difficult to untie so she began looking for a faster way to untie them, the rope was too thick and tough to snap by dragging or cut off with the teeth.

They gave her a sign to run away and leave them behind, she was quick to understand and after a three seconds stare, she ran towards the door and grabbed the doorknob with her hands shaking vigorously. Amidst her dismay, she realized the door was locked and the key was removed.

She slowly fell to the ground as tears rained down her cheeks.

Just then she heard a loud gunshot from the bathroom and she was certain that another life has been taken.

The gunshot was heard two times before thick red liquid was seen flowing from an opening under the bathroom door.

The doorknob to the bathroom twisted and the door was opened with the black leather jacket man with blood stains visible even on his back jacket and shoes.

"I see you were trying to escape, I must admit that was a good try but you were obviously saying that I am foolish for leaving you untied alone in the room with the door opened, " He said walking close to Kloe and whispered into her ear,

" I'm not as foolish as you are," He said

" Why can't you just tell me what you want, name your price I'll double it please, spare my life," Kloe begged.

The night had taken an unexpected turn for her, she had a contract document to sign the next day which will make her the new CEO of the former prestigious fashion line but how would she do so if her life ends there?

"If I wanted just money trust me I wouldn't be doing this right now, now shut up or I'll make you do so," He threatened pointing a gun at her.

" No! no! please!" Kloe begged placing her hands on her lips.

Suddenly she heard the sound of the doorknob, she quickly stood up as was leaning on it

"Open the door!" She heard someone speak behind the door and at first thought it was the blue eyes guy who had grabbed her earlier but this voice sounded different.

"Who was he?" She thought as the leathered jacket man proceeded to open the door.
