CHAPTER 31:TWO DAYS BEFORE THE FALL

Two days.Mr. Luca is going to sell my fucking soul to Malcom. Worst part is, I will have no choice but to comply. Two days until I'm tied up, tortured, and abused. My body will be beaten, and probably bruised. Just two days, and I'm going to fucking lose it.Killian called me today with last minute dinner plans. He wanted to meet before I went away.He made reservations at a fancy place for eight o'clock. It is dark in here, but the minimal lighting is very blue. I dressed up in a lacy black dress. I'm a little early, so I went ahead and got the table.This is my first time being out alone since I have met everyone. I have always had someone with me, or at least an escort. I guess Liam is calm knowing that Killian will be here.Killian walks out in front of me. It's like I thought him into existence."Hey!" I smile.He gives me a quick hug before sitting down.He's in a white shirt and a black tie. He has the sleeves rolled past his wrists. He couldn't sit properly at a table if his

CHAPTER 32:BLOODY GAMES

Yesterday was spent preparing and training for this mission. I've learned about every way to pick a lock, I can avoid unconsciousness from different attacks, and I also know every function of peephole cameras and tiny microphones.The amount of gear I have right now could fill a tool belt if it wasn't all hidden. My purse has my disguised pocket knife, microphones and cameras hidden in tampon wrappers, and a gun in a secret compartment. If the purse is taken from me, I have extra gear in my bra.A lot of people will be observing the dinner. We payed off a waiter to let us in and set up cameras. There are also two guys in the restaurant watching. Nathaniel will be speaking to me through a small ear piece invisible to everyone. It is hidden behind some of the front cartilage attaching the ear.Everything up to my makeup is strategic. I did it much differently so Malcom doesn't recognize me. My silk, black turtleneck dress doesn't allow my bra to look suspicious. My heels even have a sm

CHAPTER 33:CORNERED

"You were shot?!?" He asks, surprisingly worried."Well, grazed." I say, revealing my shin from under the table."What happened to him?""Killian put a bullet through his skull.""So that's why he's MIA.."I let him process his thoughts."Well I was going to send you out for revenge, but I guess that's taken care of."I hate that I actually believe him."Now I wish I was the one who killed him." I smile.He chuckles right before taking the last bite of his lamb."Sorry to drag you out to this dinner just for that. I thought there would be a lot more to tell you and prepare you for.""It's alright. I actually kind of enjoyed it..."Those words were hard to say, but they weren't entirely false. I thought I was going be a nervous wreck, but it was just casual conversation. Of course now the action will start to happen.The waiter comes back over with his credit card, and he puts it back in his wallet."Do you want to finish that water before we leave?"Now I have to think of an excuse."

CHAPTER 34:TRAPPED BELOW

I woke up gasping for air. After sitting up, I quickly look at my surroundings. I'm in a concrete room. There's one window at the top of the back wall. I'm on a small mattress, but there's nothing else to be seen in here.My purse is gone. I hold my breath reach into my ear. Thank god it is still in there. I frantically try to turn it on, but nothing. Then I reach into my bra. All of that stuff is still there, but none of it is direct communication. I'm on my own now.What the fuck am I doing in this dark room? At least there is sunlight coming from the window.I'm scared of what could've happened to me while I was out. My underwear seems to be in tact, and they didn't discover the stuff in my bra. They must have just dropped me in here.I took all of the gear I have and hid it under the mattress. I stood up and pulled on the door handle, but nothing. What the hell am I supposed to do? Wiring this room won't help shit.I waited for a little while, but I just got bored. Any punishme

CHAPTER 35:DISCIPLINE AND DEFIANCE

I saw Malcom in the single armchair. He's staring me down."Come here." He orders.I take a deep breath and walk over. I hold out the burger to him, but he doesn't seem satisfied. "I don't like tomatoes." He says.I look at him and the burger blankly."Do you want me to it off?" I ask as nice as possible.He gives me an alarming grin."No."He takes the burger and sets it on the table next to him. Then he pats on the right arm of the chair. I guess defying isn't the smartest thing right now, so I carefully sit on it.Something about sitting next to him brought back memories of his abuse. Glancing to my left and seeing the exact scene flicker in my head.Worst part is, he doesn't even know what he's done to me.He sits on the end of the chair so he can face me."Have you caused any trouble yet?"I shake my head.His hand. It starts coming for my face. I grip onto his wrist before it gets any further, just like I had done with Mr. Luca...It takes me a second, but I realize what I've

CHAPTER 36:NO LONGER HELPLESS

Yesterday went smoothly. Most of the guys were busy, so we just had a couple monitoring us while we cleaned. I was lucky to get some easy jobs. I heard one girl was made to do the toilets.Today was a bit tougher. He forced another girl to give head. However, she wasn't so lucky to get Ishir. The guy beat her and choked her constantly. I don't think she knew what she was doing either...It's night time, and I think everyone is asleep.Now it's my time to plant these cameras. I convinced Ishir to get my purse, so now I have all three sets. I didn't hell him what I'm doing, but he's going to monitor the halls for me as I set them up.I first hit the main entrance. I hide it behind some decorative books. I give the cam a thumbs up so they know everything should run smooth.These are supposed to be a live thing, so maybe they can keep updates on me too.Next I put one in the kitchen because it can get a lot of angles. I secure it inside a plant. Once again, I give it the thumbs up.Final

CHAPTER 37:THE COST OF THE PLAN

"GET THE FUCK OUT!" I yell.He looks scared. He frantically gets up and sprints out of the door, leaving it open behind him.I sink to the floor and sit against the wall. My shaking hands drop the gun. I, was raped... I was just fucking raped. I know every way to defend myself. I could have protected myself any other day. Not today though. Not this week.The one time I can't I'm taken advantage of. I get fucking violated. He desecrated my fucking body. I don't know how I will ever heal.I sit and cry into my knees. I haven't even pulled up my panties. I don't want them to touch me. Not after he did. I did fix my bra because it was too uncomfortable.After a few minutes I hear footsteps down the hall. They stop at my open door. I don't even bother to look up. I know who is there."See there's nothing to worry about. She's just being a sensitive bitch." Malcom says.I hear a gun lower."Get the gun and take care of her Ishir. I want to see bruises."I hear two of them walk away. Ishir

CHAPTER 38:BOUND FOR BETRAYAL

Get up Nara...Get up!"GET THE FUCK UP!" Malcom screams.My eyes fly open. I sit up as fast as possible, and Malcom is at the door."Make yourself presentable. We get on the plane in an hour."He leaves the room. I look outside at the still dark sky. It has to be six in the morning or something.Today I can finally leave this shit hole. I can go back to real furniture and real food. There will be heat in the house. I'll finally be able to get back to normal.I put on my heels and brush my hair out with my fingers. The ear piece under the mattress is still there thankfully. It is the only thing I can even leave with. I don't even have my dignity.I knock on the door to be let out. Some guy opens it and leads me to the kitchen. There's an actual breakfast waiting for me. Scrambled eggs, toast, a glass of orange juice. It's just sitting on the counter."For you." The guy says.I carefully sit on the barstool. I don't know if anyone is hiding around the corner, but I'm ready if there i

CHAPTER 39:THE PRICE OF SURVIVAL

"The one and only! Why don't you say hi honey?" He suggests, patting me on the back. I tried my best not to jump."Hi..." I say shyly.They all stay quiet."Sorry, we maybe drained too much of the defiance out of her." Malcom jokes.None of them laugh.'...So! You are welcome to check her out and tell me what you think."Malcom nudges me toward Hayes. He steps up to me, looking down into my eyes. I know he's acting, but I can't say my nerves are part of one.He a grows a smirk. Now I'm worried. How far is he going to take this?Suddenly, he grabs my jaw and pulls our faces close together. He's really good at this douche act. Almost too good..."She's perfect." He says in a low tone."Good to hear! You're welcome to do a test drive if you know what I mean."Hayes pulls away from me."Well I can't spoil the plans I have." He says."Are you sure? I always make sure that you are satisfied with the quality you're getting."He sighs, "Well maybe I can take her for a spin..."He can what?!?

CHAPTER 40:SHADOWS THAT DONT FADE

I got out after I'm squeaky clean. The black robe is super soft on my skin. I dry my hair a little more before finally brushing my teeth. They still tasted a bit like metal.I look for anything to do my hair with. There's a blow dryer in the drawer, so I blow it out until it's barely damp. I brush it with my fingers because there is no hairbrush to be seen.I open the door and walk downstairs. Hayes and his father are both in the kitchen. His dad is cooking something."Feel better?" Hayes asks.I nod and sit on the cushioned barstool.'That's good. Jax should be back soon. He got caught in traffic.""Okay..."I don't know why I'm shy all of the sudden.Maybe cause I'm in a fucking robe in front of two men I'm not used to lounging around.Laurent hands me a plate of chicken stir fry. I look at it cautiously."Everything alright?" Laurent asks.I snap out of the unnecessary suspicion."Yeah, sorry. Last thing I ate was drugged to get me on that jet.""How long did it have you out for?
