All Chapters of The Idea Of You: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Chris and Cindy stare at Rebecca in utter shock as she falls to the floor. "What did you do?" Cindy demands, moving over to help the woman that lay only partically concious on Alexander's office floor. "Nothing!" Chris defends, stepping backwards with his hands up in surrender. Cindy brushes him off, choosing instead to tend to Rebecca. Chris turned to Alexander, his eyes once again blazing. "This is what you are doing to innocent people Alexander, if you know where Annie is bring her back. If you don't, please, help us find her." Chris' voice is strong, but his plea is not unnoticed. Cindy gently lifts her head to look up at him. "You really think this is because of Annie's disapperance?" Cindy asks, gesturing to Rebecca who still lay helplessly at her feet. Cindy had never experianced anything like a loved one gone missing. Friends killed in the name of Alexander or her uncle, sure. She had felt worried for her friends or family members when a mission took longer than it should ha

Jason was on edge, it had been only twenty four hours since he met with Alexander and he knew that his time was running out. He wasn't sure his act had been enough to convince Alexander that he was innocent, he knew taking Annie was a big risk, the biggest he had taken. It was for sure going to get him caught. Xavier hasn't been answering his calls, he hoped that his message had gotten read and somebody would be meeting him here, the usual place for their information swaps. Jason needed to run, and soon. Perhapse if things had been different, than Jason could've told him about everything before he had gotten this deep. He was in too far to turn back now, much like the night Jason took Annie, there was no turning back for him now. "What do you want? Do you have anything for me?" Xavier asked, appearing from behind a dark corner. It was one of the rare times he had come himself. Usually he would send someone in his place. "I wasn't expecting results, expecially after your recent betray

Rebecca woke up after almost twelve straight hours of sleep, it had been a long time since she had managed to fall asleep, her body had clearly needed to regenerate. The last month of Rebecca's life had been spent searching for Annie, they had been best friends. The police hadn't wanted anythin to do with the case, claiming she was an adult or she would come home when she was ready. Rebecca knew Annie better than that, she knew Annie was unhappy with her job, her parents stressed her out and seeing Jack, her brother, was a shock to her that day but nothing would've made her run away. Annie had being doing a snack run for them both, Rebecca wished she could go back and do that day all over again. She wouldn't let Annie go, ever again, at the very least Rebecca would insist Annie drove rather than watched. Heignsight is always 20/20. This was the first time Rebecca had ever expeciaced anything like this. She hated going to work and wasting those precious hours that could be used searchi

Annie's stomach ached by the time her door was finally opened once again. Another woman opened the door, once again different from the last. The woman had a look of terror in her dark eyes. The woman's face held brusies that made Annie want to flinch away, she decided she wouldn't attempt conversation today, the woman had an aura of sadness that Annie never imagined she would be able to break through."Are you okay?" Annie asked, feeling a sense of obligation to check on the woman's well-being even if the woman would not answer. The woman nodded slowly and made her way to the bathroom, Annie heard the sound of running water immediately knowing it was time for her to see Xavier again. As much as she would hate to see him, she loved that it would bring the chance for food as did her growling stomach. It wasn't long before the woman had brought Annie into the bathroom and left to get Annie an appropriate outfit. Annie sighed as she sat in the bath, dunking her head under the water occas

Distant gun shots filled Annie's ears. Her fear surrounded her as she curled herself up further. Her hands were hovering over her face as she held and her legs stayed protecting her stomach. Her body bleeding and broken from Xavier's attacks just moments prior. Annie was confused, unsure what was happening or what would happen to her. "Get up!" Xavier demanded, grabbing one of her clenched hands and yanking her to her knees. Annie whimpered as her knees landed hard on her knee caps. Annie bit her toungue as she surpressed her cry of agony. Xavier didn't wait for her to be standing, instead he began to storm out of the hall, dragging Annie behind him. Annie's hand ached where he gripped, she was sure he would leave bruises. Xavier dragged Annie up many flights of stairs until they reached his office on the top floor. As soon as he closed the door behind him, Xavier threw Annie to the corner of the room. She landed in a messy pile. "Stay there." Xavier barely looked at Annie as he spo
